摘要:
The invention relates to the expression of open reading frame 2 (ORF-2) proteins of a strain of hepatitis E virus from Pakistan (SAR-55) in a eukaryotic expression system. The expressed proteins can serve as an antigen in diagnostic immunoassays and/or as an immunogen or vaccine to protect against infection by hepatitis E.

摘要:
A strain of hepatitis E virus from Pakistan (SAR-55) implicated in an epidemic of enterically transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis, now called hepatitis E, is disclosed. The invention relates to the expression of the whole structural region of SAR-55, designated open reading frame 2 (ORF-2), in a eukaryotic expression system. The expressed protein is capable of forming HEV virus-like particles which can serve as an antigen in diagnostic immunoassays and as an immunogen or vaccine to protect against infection by hepatitis E.

摘要:
A method for producing human leukocyte interferon alpha-2 resides in that there is carried out submerged cultivation of a producer strain Pseudomonas species VG-84 carrying a plasmid pVG3 with an inserted gene of human leukocyte interferon alpha-2, said strain being deposited in the collection of microorganism cultures at the USSR Antibiotics Research Institute under Reg. No. 1742; said strain being cultivated in a nutrient medium, containing the sources of carbon and nitrogen, mineral salts and growth stimulants, under aeration in the presence of antibiotics, i.e., streptomycin or tetracycline, or a mixture of both, followed by isolation and purification of the end product.
