摘要:
A novel recombinant chimera of DNA construct having esat-6 region of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and kinesin region of Leishmania donovani cloned together on two sides of self cleaving peptide in a DNA vaccine vector pVAX-1 wherein the chimeric construct is operatively linked to a transcriptional promoter thus capable of self replication and expression within the mammalian cell, and the process of preparation thereof comprising: analysis of the predicted protein sequence of kinesin motor domain and esat-6 domain using Promiscuous MHC Class-1 Binding Peptide Prediction Servers; amplification of gene coding for kinesin motor domain and esat-6 domain; cloning of kinesin esat-6 gene region in pGEM-T™ vector for sequence analysis; generation of chimeric construct by directional cloning in pVAX-1 vector. In-vitro expression analysis of kinesin motor domain and esat-6 domain from the clones using cell free translation system and immunogenicity studies; and splenocyte proliferation and cytokines studies using the above mentioned constructs.
