为了确定高免疫原性的严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒(SARS-CoV)的表位肽能够诱导持久的免疫力,我们首先筛选免疫球蛋白G(IgG)抗体反应的197个不同的重叠15-聚体从三个感染患者的血清中的SARS-CoV蛋白。其中42种肽与所有三名患者的血清反应。因此,我们在感染后6个月测试了这42种肽对患者血清(n = 45)的反应性。在45名患者中,分别有23名(51%)、27名(60%)和19名(42%)感染后血清中可检测到对42种肽中的三种(S791、M207和N161)特异性的显著较高水平的IgG抗体。这三个肽,其持久的免疫识别,可以提供更好地了解SARS-CoV的免疫原性。
In order to determine highly immunogenic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) epitope peptides capable of inducing long-lasting immunity, we first screened immunoglobulin-G (IgG) antibodies reactive to 197 different overlapping 15-mers from the SARS-CoV proteins in the sera of three infected patients. Forty-two peptides among them were reactive to the sera from all three patients. Consequently, we tested for the reactivity of these 42 peptides to patients' sera (n = 45) at 6-month post-infection. The significantly higher levels of IgG antibodies specific to three (S791, M207 and N161) of 42 peptides were detectable in the post-infection sera from 23 (51%), 27 (60%) and 19 (42%) of 45 patients, respectively. These three peptides, recognized by their long-lasting immunity, may provide a better understanding of the immunogenicity of SARS-CoV.
