RESUMO

Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test employing whole virus antigen is a prescribed serological test for serotyping, diagnosis and surveillance for avian paramyxoviruses (APMVs). For use as alternative to the virus antigen, hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) protein gene of the wild duck isolate APMV-6/WB12-163FS of APMV serotype 6 (APMV-6) was amplified, cloned and expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells. The HN gene of 1,842 bps in length showed nucleotide and amino acid homology of 93.4% and 97.1%, respectively with that of APMV-6 prototype strain. Putative sialic acid binding motif and potential N-linked glycosylation sites were conserved. In Western blot analysis, the expressed protein had a molecular mass of 66 kDa and reacted specifically with antiserum to APMV-6. In addition, the recombinant HN protein showed biological properties such as hemagglutination (HA) and elution. The recombinant HN protein produced from infected cells showed high HA titers (approximately 2(13) HA unit/ml). The HA activity of the recombinant HN protein was inhibited by antisera to APMV-6. In cross HA inhibition test, the recombinant HN protein had the highest titers with antisera to homologous APMV serotype, although there was weak cross reaction with some of antisera to other APMV serotypes. Our results indicated that recombinant APMV-6 HN protein would have the potential as alternative to the APMV-6 antigen in HI assays.

RESUMO

A recombinant hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (rHN) protein from Newcastle disease virus (NDV) with hemagglutination (HA) activity was expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda cells using a baculovirus expression system. The rHN protein extracted from infected cells was used as an antigen in a hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test for the detection and titration of NDV-specific antibodies present in chicken sera. The rHN antigen produced high HA titers of 2(13) per 25 microL, which were similar to those of the NDV antigen produced using chicken eggs, and it remained stable without significant loss of the HA activity for at least 12 weeks at 4degrees C. The rHN-based HI assay specifically detected NDV antibodies, but not the sera of other avian pathogens, with a specificity and sensitivity of 100% and 98.0%, respectively, in known positive and negative chicken sera (n = 430). Compared with an NDV-based HI assay, the rHN-based HI assay had a relative sensitivity and specificity of 96.1% and 95.5%, respectively, when applied to field chicken sera. The HI titers of the rHN-based HI assay were highly correlated with those in an NDV-based HI assay (r = 0.927). Overall, these results indicate that rHN protein provides a useful alternative to NDV antigen in HI assays.
