ABSTRACT
Objectives: To express and characterize NS1 of Indonesian-specific DENV2 virus in Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris). Methods: A codon optimized synthetic gene derived from the DENV-2 NS1 amino acid sequences was synthesized commercially and inserted into the P. pastoris pPICZαA expression vector. The recombinant DENV-2 NS1 protein was purified by Ni-NTA af-finity chromatography, and its antigenicity was tested. Results: The recombinant DENV-2 NS1 protein was secreted as a protein with a mo-lecular weight of ~45 kDa, and the optimal expression condition was achieved by in-duction with 2%(v/v) methanol for 72 h. The purified recombinant DENV-2 NS1 protein was able to interact with a monoclonal antibody of NS1 in a commercial rapid test. Conclusions: The resulting recombinant DENV-2 NS1 protein produced in P. pastoris KM71 is a potential candidate for use in the development of a dengue diagnostic kit and vaccine.
