Optimized Expression of Duck Tembusu Virus E Gene Delivered by a Vectored Duck Enteritis Virus In Vitro.

In our previous study, a recombinant duck enteritis virus (DEV) delivering codon-optimized E gene (named as E-ch) of duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV) optimized referring to chicken's codon bias has been obtained based on the infectious bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone of duck enteritis virus vaccine strain pDEV-EF1, but the expression level of E-ch in recombinant virus rDEV-E-ch-infected cells was very low. To optimize DTMUV E gene expression delivered by the vectored DEV, different forms of E gene (collectively called EG) including origin E gene (E-ori), truncated E451-ori gene, codon-optimized E-dk gene optimized referring to duck's codon bias, as well as the truncated E451-ch and E451-dk, Etpa-ori and Etpa-451-ori, which contain prefixing chick TPA signal peptide genes, were cloned into transfer vector pEP-BGH-end, and several recombinant plasmids pEP-BGH-EG were constructed. Then the expression cassettes pCMV-EG-polyABGH amplified from pEP-BGH-EG by PCR were inserted into US7/US8 gene intergenic region of pDEV-EF1 by two-step Red/ET recombination, 7 strain recombinant mutated BAC clones pDEV-EG carrying different E genes were constructed. Next, the recombinant viruses rDEV-EG were reconstituted from chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs) by calcium phosphate precipitation. Western blot analysis showed that E or E451 protein is expressed in rDEV-E-ori, rDEV-E-ch, rDEV-Etpa-ori, rDEV-E451-ori, rDEV-E451-dk, and rDEV-E451-ch-infected CEFs, and protein expression level in rDEV-E451-dk-infected CEFs is the highest. These studies have laid a foundation for developing bivalent vaccine controlling DEV and DTMUV infection.
