Figure 1From: Expression of recombinant Araraquara Hantavirus nucleoprotein in insect cells and its use as an antigen for immunodetection compared to the same antigen expressed in Escherichia coliExpression, purification and antigenic analysis by western-blot of recombinant Nucleoprotein, expressed in Baculovírus expression system. A. Polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis 12,5% stained with Coomassie blue showing the expression of recombinant N protein. 1. BenchMark Protein Ladder (Bio-rad-USA), 2. Crude extract from uninfected Sf9 cells, 3. Crude extract from infected SF9 cells with recombinant Baculovirus. B. Polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis 12,5% stained with Coomassie blue showing the purification of recombinant N protein. 1. BenchMark Protein Ladder (Bio-rad-USA), 2/3. Purified recombinant N protein. C. Western-blot showing the recombinant N protein detection by HCPS serum sample. 1. BenchMark Protein Ladder (Fermentas-BRL), 2. Crude extract from infected SF9 cells with recombinant baculovirus showing the detection of recombinant N protein, 3. Crude extract from uninfected SF9 cells without detection of recombinant N protein.Back to article page
