目的构建整合酶区标准突变株真核表达载体,并进行初步功能验证,为HIV-1表型耐药研究提供技术方法。方法采用点突变的方法,以质粒pNL4-3.Luc.R-E为模板,扩增整合酶区片段(含突变位点Y143、Q148),经过BamHI和XhoI双酶切,通过T4DNA连接酶将纯化的PCR产物与经过BglⅡ和XhoI双酶切的pcDNA6.2-LTRgagpolSl连接,命名为pcDNA6.2-LTRgagpol,经过GatewayTM技术的BP/LR反应,将LTRgagpol片段重组到pNL4-3-attR,构成整合酶区标准突变质粒。在聚乙烯亚胺(PEI)转染试剂介导下,与水泡性口膜炎病毒的外壳糖蛋白质粒共转染HEK293细胞,得到HIV-1假病毒,应用整合酶抑制剂拉替拉韦与野生株假病毒进行表型耐药比较,将制备的病毒效价按4:1的比例感染HEK293细胞,同时加入拉替拉韦,终浓度为1μmol/L,感染48h后测荧光素酶报告基因。样本间抑制率比较采用单因素方差分析。结果带有整合酶区主要突变位点的HIV-l标准耐药株(pNL4-3-Q148R、pNL4-3-Y143H)构建成功。应用1μmol/L拉替拉韦进行表型耐药检测时,野生型病毒对拉替拉韦最为敏感,报告基因数值平均为1.72×10^3,Y143H耐药株(1.18×10。)和Q148R耐药株(2.82×10。)对拉替拉韦表现为耐药,对三者相对荧光素酶单位取对数值做统计学分析,野生株与Y143H耐药株相比差异有统计学意义(F=38.800,P=0.025),野生株与Q148R耐药株相比差异有统计学意义(F=174.355,P=0.006)。Y143H耐药株与Q148R耐药株相比,Q148R耐药株对拉替拉韦敏感性更低,差异具有统计学意义(F=22.551,P=0.042)。结论成功构建了带有整合酶区主要突变位点的HIV一1标准耐药株载体,并成功表达,为研究临床HIV-1标本表型耐药典定了基础。
Objective To construct eukaryotic expression vector of human immunodefieiency virus (HIV)-I integrase standard mutant and conduct preliminary functional verification, and to provide study method for HIV-1 phenotypic drug resistance. Methods In this study, point mutation was used. The integrase sequences (containing Y143 and Q148 mutations) were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with pNL4-3. Luc. R-E plasmid as template. Purified PCR product was digested by restriction enzymes Bgl Ⅱ and Xho I and linked with pcDNA6. 2 LTRgagpolS1 vector digested by the same restriction enzymes via T4 DNA ligase. The product was named as pcDNA 6.2-LTRgagpol. LTRgagpol fragment was cloned into pNL4-3 attR plasmid by GatewayTM BP/LR reaction to form the standard plasmid containing integrase mutations. The standard plasmid, together with VSV-G, was transfected into HEK293 cells using PEI-mediated transfection reagent to obtain HIV-1 pseudotyped virus. Then integrase inhibitor raltegravir was used to examine the phenotypic sensitivity of HIV-1 variants and wild-type virus strain relatively. Then phenotypic drug resistance was compared between integrase inhibitor raltegravir and wild-type pseudovirus strain. HEK 293 cell line was infected with the prepared virus strain of 4 : 1 ratio and raltegravir was added simultaneously with the final concentration of 1 μmol/L. The luciferase reporter gene was detected after 48 h of infection. The comparison of inhibition rate between samples was done using one-way analysis of variance. Results HIV-1 standard drug resistant strains with the integrase enzyme mutation sites were constructed successfully, the phenotypic drug resistance assay using raltegravir (1μmol/L) showed that wild-type strain was sensitive to raltegravir the the mean reporter gene copy of 1.72 × 103 , while Y143H resistant strain (1.18×10^4 ) and Q148R resistant strain (2. 82 × 10^4 ) were resistant against raltegravir. The analysis of log values of relative Iuciferase units showed that
