Abstract: A 0.77kb UL49 gene encoding the tegument protein VP22 was amplified from cells culture infected with Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV—I)bv PCR.The DNA fragment was further cloned into pM D 1 8一T vector,resulting in recombinant plasmid pM D—VP22.The sequences were determined an d there is no diference with the sequences of the 【,L 9 gene of BHV—I Cooper strain .Th e 0.77kb fragment was released from plasmid pMD..VP22 an d subcloned into the vectors pET..28a an d pEGFP-C 1 respectively,to genera~ a prokaryotic expression pET一28aVP22 an d eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFPVP22.pET一28aVP22 was consquenfly transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3).After induced with IPTG.the fusion protein was expressed an d the molecular weight was about 38l(Da. pEGFPVP22 Was tran sfected into PK一15 cells an d the clone cells were selected out wim G418.Th e autofluorescence of the clone cells line tran sfected with pEGFPVP22 could be observed under inve~ed fluorescence microscope.It is interesting that the fluorescence primarily targeted the nucleus of cells whereas the autofluorescence of cells tran sfected with control vector pEGFP—C1 localized throughout the cytoplasm.
