Aim:
To express the anti-rabies MBP-ScdsFv fusion protein in E.coli and identify it's activity assay.
Methods:
A full length of ScdsFv gene was Cloned into prokaryotic vector pMAL-p2x by recombinant DNA, Then the recombinant plasmid pMAL-ScdsFv was transformed to E.coli ER2566 for expression and induced by IPTG. The fusion protein was digested by Factor Xa, purified by Ni(+) and amylose resin affinity chromatography and Identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The binding activity of the protein was determined by ELISA.
Results:
Recombinant plasmid pMAL-ScdsFv was successfully constructed. The anti-rabies ScdsFv protein which was digested by Factor Xa and purified by Ni-NTA and amylose resin affinity chromatography had good binding activity and high stability.
Conclusion:
The anti-rabies ScdsFv protein is of good binding activity and high stability, and it can be used for the immune therapy.

Rab proteins switch between a cytosolic, GDP-bound inactive state and a membrane-anchored, GTP-bound active state. By themselves, Rabs show slow rates of GDP/GTP exchange and GTP hydrolysis. Thus, Rab proteins are considered...
