A complete cDNA encoding a 21.1-kDa tegumental protein (CsTP21.1) was recognized from Clonorchis sinensis adult full-length cDNA plasmid library by bioinformatics analysis. Recombinant CsTP21.1 was highly expressed in Escherichia coli, purified by affinity chromatography, and identified by Western blotting. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that CsTP21.1 is localized in the tegument of the adult worm. The rCsTP21.1-specific IgG1, IgG2, and IgG4 subclasses could be detected in the sera of clonorchiasis patients by ELISA, but their sensitivity was much lower than that of total IgG. The sensitivity and specificity of IgG in 66 serum samples of clonorchiasis patients were 100% and 95.5%, and the sensitivity was independent of worm loads; the cross-reaction rates in 86, 24, and 31 serum samples from patients infected with Fasciola hepatica, Schistosoma japonicum, and nematode were 98.8%, 83.3%, 93.3%, respectively, whereas no cross-reactions with Toxoplasma gondii and sparganum. This study demonstrated that CsTP21.1 is a trematode–nematode pan-specific antigen that is valuable in the development of a universal immunodiagnostic kit for human trematode and nematode infections.
