CAPSID PROTEIN AND THE GENE OF SWINE HEPATITIS E VIRUS

摘要

PURPOSE: A capsid protein of swine hepatitis E virus(HEV) and a gene encoding the same are provided to develop diagnosis and vaccine for HEV. CONSTITUTION: A swine hepatitis E virus(HEV) ORF2 capsid protein contains an amino acid of sequence number 7. A gene encoding the swine HEV ORF2 capsid protein ahs a sequence of sequence number 6. A vector pswHEV-capsid contains a gene encoding the protein. A transformed microorganism is obtained by introducing the vector pswHEV-capsid to host cell of bacteria, fungi, or yeast. The host cell is E.coli. The transformed microorganism is deposit number KCTC18139P.
