Abstract
This patent deals with the use of Trypanosoma cruzi antigens obtained using recombinant DNA techniques, or synthetic peptides derived from these antigens, and their use in the immunological diagnosis of Chagas Disease using either ELISA, or western blot, or dot-blot, or hemagglutination, or agglutination, or monoclonal antibodies, or radioimmunoassay. The antigens or synthetic peptides are characterized by displaying the following aminoacid sequences: Ag1: valine (or alanine), alanine, glutamic acid, alanine (orthreonine), glutamic acid, lysine, glutamine, lysine (or arginine), alanine, alanine, glutamic acid, alanine (or serine), threonine (or methionine or alanine) and lysine. Ag2: methionine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glutamic acid arginine, arginine, glutamine, leucine, leucine, glutamic acid, lysine, aspartic acid, proline, arginine, arginine, asparagine, alanine, lysine, glutamic acid, isoleucine alanine, alanine, leucine, glutamic acid, glutamic acid, serine, methionine, asparagine, alanine, arginine, alanine, glutamine, glutamic acid, leucine, alanine, arginine, glutamic acid, lysine, lysine, leucine, arginine, aspartic acid, arginine, alanine, phenylalanine, leucine, aspartic acid, glutamine, lysine, proline, glutamic acid, arginine, valine, proline, leucine, alanine, aspartic acid, valine, proline, leucine, aspartic acid, aspartic acid, aspartic acid, serine, aspartic acid, phenylalanine, valine and alanine.
Description
Trypanosoma cruzi RECOMBINANT ANTIGENS AND SYNTHETIC PEPTIDES FOR UTILIZATION IN THE IMMUNOLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS OF CHAGAS DISEASE.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This patent request refers to the use of Trypanosoma cruzi repetitive recombinant antigens, as well as the corresponding synthetic peptides, in the immunological detection of Chagas Disease and its ethiological agent, the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi.
The immunological diagnosis of Chagas Disease is in general based on the use of crude or semi-purified parasite extracts for the detection of antibodies, in different tests such as hemagglutination, ELISA, rad i o i mmunoassay and Western blot analysis. However, it is generally observed the cross-reactivity with patients bearing other diseases such as visceral and tegumentar leishmaniasis, toxoplasmosis, syphilis and schistosomiasis,, Furthermore, the use of parasite extracts involves some rises for its preparation and is relatively expensive.
However, with the development of genetic engeneering techniques, it became possible to express heterologous genes in bacteria with low cost and high specificity. Then, the cloning and expression of Trypanosoma cruzi genes in E.coli was aimed for the obtention of parasite recombinant antigens that might be used for the diagnosis of Chagas Disease.,
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
T.cruzi DNA was cloned in E.coli using the expression
vector lambda gt11, and the recombinant clones were screened with a pool of human chagasic sera. Twelve recombinant clones were purified to homogeneity and from these two were selected on the basis of the specificity of their reactivity with chagasic sera. Partial nucleotide sequence of these clones showed that one of them (Ag#1) encodes an antigen composed of at least 23 repetitions of a 14 aminoacids motif whereas the other (Ag#2) encodes an antigen containing at least 14 repetitions of a 68 am i noac i ds repetitive epitope.
The recomb inant antigems Ag#1 and Ag#2, as well as a synthetic peptide corresponding to Ag#1, were tested in the immunological diagnosis of Chagas Disease, using the methods of ELISA, dot-blot, western blot and agglutination. The results obtained showed that the aforementioned antigens provide an adequate and specific diagnosis for Chagas Disease„
