Abstract

NS3 protein is 618 amino acids (aa) in length containing serine protease and helicase domains required for DENV replication. Alignment of consensus amino acid sequences from all four DENV serotypes demonstrated that this protein is more conserved (78%) among the different dengue serotypes, which elicits a strong cellular immune response after viral infection in humans and animal models. Present study, a central hydrophilic region of NS3 cofactor, NS2B (NS2BH) with full length of NS3 genes DENV3 Indonesian strain were amplified from CDNA following PCR, and inserted to PYES2/CT shuttle vector. The recombinant plasmid was transformed and expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae expression system. As result, detection with Anti-His detector and Anti-NS3 shown NS2BH/NS3 was expressed as 83 KDA protein band. We found that addition of NS2BH on NS3 full length construction plasmid increase the yield and activity of protein expression in S. cerevisiae. In future study, our recombinant NS2B/NS3 protein can be used as recombinant protein in Dengue vaccine development.

Abstract

The potency of aluminum hydroxide as an adjuvant in vaccine development is considered to depend on its particle size. In previous studies, we have successfully prepared two size particle, micro, and nano, aluminum hydroxide gel (alum) adjuvants. The potency of those particles as a candidate of adjuvant is needed to be characterized. In this study, we formulated our adjuvants with purified DENV3 pre Membrane Envelope (prM-E) recombinant protein and evaluated the induction of nitric oxide level in mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. We prepared the alum adjuvant by precipitation-homogenization methods with an agitation rate at 11,000xg. Secreted prM-E recombinant protein was collected from Pichia pastoris X-33 fermentation which produced using bioreactor. Recombinant protein purification was carried out by anion exchange chromatography followed with size exclusion chromatography. The purified prM-E recombinant protein was observed as a single band around 70 -1k Da with a concentration of 105 mg mL . Complex nanoparticles alum with prM-E protein significantly (p<0.05) induced the nitric oxide level. Further analysis should be conducted in order to discover the detail molecular mechanism of nanoparticle alum adjuvant, recombinant protein, and cellular immune response.

Abstract

Eight percent of tuberculosis (TB) cases worldwide are resistant to rifampicin, with mutations occurring in the rpoB and katG genes. It is necessary to develop a specific multidrug-resistant (MDR) diagnostic technique using the RT-PCR method in Indonesia to aid in rapid and accurate diagnosis. In-silico testing using SnapGene software resulted in the design of DNA primers for the katG and rpoB genes, plasmids, and specific probes. This study employed a cross-sectional design using 30 non-MDR-TB and MDR-TB samples from RSUD Sitanala, Tangerang Banten, which were tested for amplification of the katG and rpoB genes using Sybr green RT-PCR. Validity testing was conducted using specific probes for the katG and rpoB genes. The amplification results showed that MDR-TB samples and MDR-TB plasmids required a longer time compared to non-MDR-TB samples and non-MDR-TB plasmids. The Quantification Cycle (Cq) value in non-MDR-TB samples was lower than the Cq value in MDR-TB samples. A t-test revealed a significant difference in Cq values of the rpoB and katG genes between MDR-TB and non-MDR-TB patients (p-value < 0.005). These differences in Cq values indicate that the findings of this study can serve as an initial reference for the development of an RT-PCR-based diagnostic kit for MDR-TB.
