CDV is a member of the genus Morbillivirus of the family Paramixoviridae. CDV is an enveloped virus with single stranded, linear, non-segmented, and negative-sense RNA, it contained six genes in order 3’-N-P-M-F-H-L-5’. In this study, H protein has higher antigenicity in comparison with amino acid sequence of other CDV. The H gene fragment of CDV was amplified using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and PCR products were confirmed by DNA sequencing. Subsequently, The H gene was subcloned into prokaryotic expression vector (pET32a) and transformed into E.coli (BL-21 (DE3) pLysS) for expression. The expressed protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and purified by affinity column then immunize BALB/c mice. The anti-serum of purified H protein was needed to recognize the H protein of CDV by Western blot. The myeloma cells (NS-1) will fuse with spleen cells from immune BALB/c mice to produce hybridoma cells. The expressed H protein will be coated as antigen. Antibodies secreted from hybridoma cells were screened by ELISA, Western-blot, and Immuno-dot. There are 7 monoclonal antibodies prepared in this study, including 1 anti-pET32a-Tag and 6 anti-H protein antibodies. Immuno-dot and Western-blot analyses suggested that these 7 monoclonal antibodies recognized a linear epitope. The 6 monoclonal antibodies which anti expressed H protein can recognize the H protein of virus. These monoclonal antibodies can be used in further research to develop CDV testing reagent.
