弧菌是造成每年水產養殖重大經濟損失的主要病原菌之一,因此在高經濟物種常使用疫苗來預防弧菌爆發。其中重組蛋白疫苗應用高純度有效抗原,能提供時效較長的保護力。在前人研究中,利用免疫蛋白質體學已篩選到坎氏弧菌中一個具高度免疫原性的60 kDa 熱休克蛋白(Vibrio campbellii Heat shock protein 60, VcHSP60)。過去文獻指出 HSP60 可作為疫苗抗原,為小鼠及鮭魚提供免疫保護。因此,本研究欲探討VcHSP60作為次單位疫苗之效能以及其高度免疫原性之分子機制。表現並純化 VcHSP60 重組蛋白製備成疫苗,施打於石斑魚後,證實可誘發高力價之血清抗體,並且提供魚隻免疫保護力。此外,施打VcHSP60誘發之血清抗體可交叉辨識其他海洋病原菌之HSP60蛋白,顯示其具有開發為廣效疫苗之潛力。本研究更結合蛋白質晶體學及小角度X光散射技術,解析VcHSP60之蛋白質結構資訊,並應用交聯耦合質譜分析法確認VcHSP60抗原辨識位點於結構上之分佈,結果找到五個抗原片段具有較高的抗體結合能力,可能為VcHSP60之專一性抗原辨識位。這些研究結果有助於未來進一步針對VcHSP60疫苗開發進行研究,以減少由魚類疾病造成的經濟損失。
Vibrio bacteria are one of the major pathogens causing significant economic losses in aquaculture each year, so vaccines are often used in high-economic species to prevent Vibrio outbreaks. The recombinant protein vaccine uses a high-purity effective antigen to provide long-lasting protection. In previous studies, a highly immunogenic protein, Vibrio campbellii Heat shock protein 60 (VcHSP60), has been identified by immunoproteomics. Some studies also revealed that HSP60 can be used as a vaccine antigen to provide immune protection for mice and salmon. Therefore, this study was to investigate the efficacy of VcHSP60 as a subunit vaccine and its molecular mechanism of high immunogenicity. We expressed and purified the VcHSP60 recombinant protein, which was used to prepare a vaccine and then applied to grouper fish. The results confirmed that VcHSP60 did induce high serum titers of specific antibodies and provided fish immune protection against Vibrio campbellii. In addition, the VcHSP60-induced serum antibodies can cross-identify the HSP60 proteins of other marine pathogens, indicating its potential to be developed as a broad-spectrum vaccine. In this study, protein crystallography and small-angle X-ray scattering were utilized to solve the protein structure of VcHSP60, and the distribution of VcHSP60 epitops was identified by cross-linking coupled mass spectrometry. Five fragments on VcHSP6 showed higher antibody-binding affinity, indicating that these fragments might be the specific antibody-antigen recognition sites. These results could be ultilized to design the VcHSP60 vaccine for reducing the economic losses caused by fish diseases.
