To construct a recombinant adenovirus shuttle plasmid pDC315-H5HA-EGFP,the HA gene of A/Swine/Fujian/1/2001(H5N1) was amplified by RT-PCR and then inserted into adenovirus shuttle plasmid pDC315.A replication-defectiv...To construct a recombinant adenovirus shuttle plasmid pDC315-H5HA-EGFP,the HA gene of A/Swine/Fujian/1/2001(H5N1) was amplified by RT-PCR and then inserted into adenovirus shuttle plasmid pDC315.A replication-defective recombinant adenovirus expressing the HA gene(rAd-H5HA-EGFP) was generated by co-transfecting the recombinant shuttle plasmid pDC315-H5HA-EGFP and the genomic plasmid pBHGlox△E1,E3Cre in HEK293 cells.The recombinant adenovirus was confirmed by PCR,RT-PCR and Western blot assay.These results demonstrated that HA protein was properly expressed by the rAd-H5HA-EGFP in HEK293 cells and had natural biological activities.The TCID<sub>50</sub> of the rAd-H5HA- EGFP was assessed to be 2.26×10<sup>10</sup>/mL after propagation and purification.Immunization of BALB/ c mice indicated that rAd-H5HA-EGFP induced HI antibodies and protected mice from replication of the challenge virus in their lungs.展开更多
