Therefore, 4 (385I、386R、387K、388 I) infectious clone plasmids of different point mutant viruses are constructed through experiments, wherein the P protein 386 R point mutation and 387 K point mutation vectors are connected with a target fragment, the viruses can be successfully saved after transformation, the virus virulence is obviously reduced, the genetic stability is good, and the 385I、388 I point mutant recombinant viruses cannot be successfully saved.

According to the sequence of the full-length infectious cloning vector pBR322-rF48E9 of the NDV F48E9 strain, designing a primer required for constructing a P protein 385I、386R、387K、388 I point mutation vector, wherein the construction of the vector is to amplify a point mutation fragment by using an overlap method, and then connect the amplified fragment with the vector by using a homologous recombination method, namely, 15-20bp of base homologous to the tail end of the vector after enzyme digestion needs to be added at the upstream and downstream of the primer.

EXAMPLE 4 rescue of NDV F48E9 strain P protein 386R、387 K site-directed amino acid mutant recombinant virus:

(1) Co-transfection BHK-21 cells were passaged one day in 6 well cell culture plates, co-transfected when cell density reached around 75% within 24h, and cell culture was performed according to the transfection mass ratio pBR322-rF48E9 or pBR322-rF48E 9P/(R386A) or pBR322-rF48E 9P/(K387A): pCAGGS-T7: pCI-NP: pCI-P: PCI-L=5:2:2:2:1, using TurboFect transfection kit (Thermo Fisher) operating according to kit instructions, cell culture was performed for approximately 4d. The unmutated infectious clone plasmid pBR322-rF48E9 was used as a positive control. Note that wells not transfected with infectious clone plasmid were set as negative controls.

(2) Chick embryo inoculation, in which whether cells have cytopathy or not is observed, and the time for harvesting cell supernatant is determined according to the cell state, and the time is about 3-4 days for harvesting. Inoculating the obtained supernatant into allantoic cavity of 9-11 day old SPF chick embryo, each chick embryo needs to be connected with about 200 μL, placing into incubator, discarding the chick embryo dead within 24h, and harvesting chick embryo allantoic liquid after 3d, and performing Hemagglutination (HA) experiment.

(3) HA assay 50. Mu.L of allantoic fluid was used for the Hemagglutination Assay (HA) according to conventional methods. The HA valence of different chick embryos is 2 6-8, and F48E9 strain P protein 386 R site-directed amino acid mutant recombinant virus rF48E 9P/(R386A), P protein 387 K site-directed amino acid mutant recombinant virus rF48E 9P/(K387A) and control virus rF48E9 are obtained.

(4) Experimental results after co-transfection of the rescue plasmid system into BHK-21 cells, lesions were observed on day 3 in cells transfected with pBR322-rF48E9/P (R386A), pBR322-rF48E9/P (K387A) and positive control pBR322-rF48E9 (fig. 3A), with no lesions in the remaining 3 wells. Cell supernatants from all wells were harvested on day 4, allantoic fluid was harvested after chick embryos were inoculated, and HA measurements indicated positive rF48E9/P (R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) and rF48E9 titers of 2 8、28 and 2 7, respectively.

In the experiment of the invention, rF48E 9P/(I385A) and rF48E 9P/(I388A) are not successfully rescued, and on the premise of ensuring that all test materials are accurate, many attempts are made, such as that positive viruses are not generated in a plurality of test operations (up to 20 times), the test operations are not successful by changing different experimenters, the rescue is not successful by changing cells, and the like. We speculate that the two isoleucine (I) s of 385I、388 I play a key role in the spatial structure of the viral P protein or the functional role of the P protein, thereby affecting the transcriptional replication or assembly of the virus. The role of these two sites requires further investigation.

Example 5 identification of ndv f48e9 strain P protein 386R、387 K site-directed amino acid mutant recombinant virus:

The F48E9 strain P protein 386R、387 K site-directed amino acid mutant recombinant virus rF48E 9P/(R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) and control virus rF48E9 are respectively passaged to 10 th generation by using 9-day-old SPF chick embryo, RNA of the 10 th generation virus is extracted, reverse transcription is carried out to obtain cDNA, then target fragments are amplified, and the target fragments are recovered by cutting glue and are subjected to sample feeding sequencing.

Experimental results show that mutation of 386 th amino acid mutation sites of the P protein of the rF48E9/P (R386A) strain and mutation of 1156 th and 1157 th nucleotide sequences of nucleotide sequences still exist, which indicates that the genetic stability of the rF48E9/P (R386A) strain of the recombinant mutant virus is good, and mutation of 387 th amino acid mutation sites of the P protein of the rF48E 9P/(K387A) strain, i.e. mutation of 1159 th and 1160 th nucleotide sequences still exist, which indicates that the genetic stability of two recombinant mutant viruses is good (figure 3B).

(1) The average time (MDT) of the minimum lethal dose virus-killing chick embryo is determined by continuously diluting fresh allantoic fluid into 10 -6~10-9 by 10 times with sterilized normal saline, inoculating 5 SPF chick embryos 9-10 days old to each dilution through allantoic cavity, inoculating 0.1mL each chick embryo, culturing at 37 ℃, preserving the rest virus dilution at 4 ℃, inoculating another 5 chick embryos each dilution after 8 hours, inoculating 0.1mL each chick embryo, culturing at 37 ℃, illuminating eggs twice a day, continuously observing for 7 days, and recording the death time of each chick embryo, wherein the minimum lethal dose refers to the maximum dilution capable of causing death of all chick embryos inoculated with the dilution, and the MDT refers to the average time (h) for which the minimum lethal dose causes death of all chick embryos, and the calculation formula is as follows:

Wherein:

NX-number of embryos dead in X hours;

ny—the number of embryos dead in Y hours;

X (Y) -embryo death time (h);

T-total number of embryos dead.

(2) The in-brain inoculation pathogenicity index (ICPI) of 1-day-old SPF chicks is determined by taking fresh infected allantoic fluid (not more than 24-48 h, negative in bacterial test) with HA titer higher than 1:16, 10 times dilution with sterile isotonic saline, 10 total SPF chicks inoculated in the brain and out of the shell for 24-40 h, 0.05mL each, once every 24h observation for 8 days, daily observation should be scored for chickens, normal chickens are marked as 0, sick chickens are marked as1, dead chickens are marked as 2 (each dead chicken still marks 2 in daily observation after death), ICPI is the average of all observed values in 8 days of each chicken, and the formula is calculated as follows:

Wherein:

sigma s, 8 days of accumulated morbidity;

Sigma d-8 days accumulated death number;

t-total number of chickens was cumulatively observed for 8 days.

As a result of the experiment, MDT values of rF48E9/P (R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) and rF48E9 strains were 69.7h, 75.35h and 52.0h, respectively. ICPI values for rF48E9/P (R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) and rF48E9 strains were 1.50, 1.5625 and 2.0, respectively. The results show that the recombinant mutant viruses rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E 9P/(K387A) are moderate virulent strains, and rF48E9 is a virulent strain and unchanged compared with the virulent strain F48E 9. 386R、387 The virulence of the virus after K mutation was reduced, and the virulence of the virus after 387 K mutation was weaker.

After slowly discarding the medium, fixing with methanol for 10min, washing with PBS, adding appropriate amount of 0.1% crystal violet for 20min, washing with running water, drying, photographing, and recording data.

The results of the experiment are shown in FIG. 4A for plaque produced by recombinant viruses. Data analysis of the formed plaques showed that the recombinant mutant viruses rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E 9P/(K387A) formed plaques with significantly smaller diameters (left in FIG. 4B) and areas (right in FIG. 4B) than the control virus rF48E9, indicating reduced syncytia formation capacity of the recombinant mutant viruses rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E 9P/(K387A).

Experimental methods III Virus growth Properties

(1) Virus infection experiments recombinant virus infected BHK-21 cells, the experimental procedure was followed by plating cell counts one day in advance, discarding the cell supernatant the next day, and washing twice with sterile PBS. After the recombinant viruses are uniformly mixed with serum-free DMEM (GIBCO) medium at an infectious dose of 0.01MOI, a virus diluent is slowly added into each hole of the cell culture plate, and the cell culture plate is placed at 37 ℃ for 1-2 hours, and the culture plate is gently rocked during the process, so that the viruses are uniformly adsorbed. The virus suspension was discarded and washed twice with sterile PBS. DMEM cell culture medium containing 2% serum was added and placed in a cell culture incubator. After the inoculation, the cytopathic effect needs to be observed every 12 hours, and the result is recorded by photographing. And collecting a 36-hour cell sample, and detecting the expression condition of each protein of the virus in the cell by Western blot.

(2) Virus titer assay the supernatant was collected every 12h after infection of the cells with virus and half the tissue culture infection dose (TCID 50) was determined. The method comprises spreading BHK-21 cells into 96-well cell culture plate one day in advance, and observing cell state preferably at 70-85% density. The harvested cell supernatants were serially diluted 10-fold to 10 -1~10-8 with serum-free DMEM medium, and each dilution was repeated for at least three groups. Every dilution gradient must be changed and the tip must be added along the side wall of the centrifuge tube during sample addition, and the pipette tips cannot touch the culture solution. The 96-well culture plate is discarded, and the culture plate is too porous to be discarded once, so that the death of cells due to drying is avoided. When sucking liquid, the suction head should not touch the bottom of the 96-well plate. Diluted toxic medium was added in order from low concentration to high concentration, 100. Mu.L per well. After 1h, the toxic medium was discarded and 100. Mu.L per well of 2% serum DMEM medium was added. And (5) placing the cells in a cell culture box for culturing for about 2-3 days, taking out an observation result, taking the latest time of survival of the non-toxic cells as the last observation time, and taking the obtained result as the final result.

TCID 50/mL was calculated using the Reed-Muench method.

Experimental results after the recombinant mutant viruses rF48E9/P (R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) and recombinant wild viruses rF48E9 are respectively infected with BHK-21 cells at a dose of 0.01MOI, cytopathic effect is observed, and the recombinant wild viruses rF48E9 can observe syncytia at 12hpi, the 24hpi syncytia is obvious, and the 48hpi cells are all dead. After the two recombinant mutant viruses are infected, the number of cell nuclei fused to form syncytia is obviously less, the 36hpi cells are subjected to vesicular degeneration, the 60hpi cells are all dead and 12 hours later than rF48E9, which shows that the 386 th and 387 th amino acids of the recombinant mutant virus P protein are mutated and can delay cytopathy compared with the non-mutated protein, the syncytia forming ability is weakened, and the cytopathy generating ability is reduced. The results of virus titer measurements on every 12h of harvested cell samples showed a slight decrease but no significant difference in the proliferation capacity of recombinant viruses rF48E9/P (R386A), rF48E 9P/(K387A) in BHK-21 cells (FIG. 5).

The recombinant virus rF48E9 (10 5 pfu/100. Mu.L) was inoculated by eye-drop and nose-drop, one group of chickens was tested, two groups of chickens were tested for recombinant mutant virus rF48E9/P (R386A) (10 5 pfu/100. Mu.L), and three groups of chickens were tested for recombinant mutant virus rF48E9/P (K387A) (10 5 pfu/100. Mu.L). Three groups of chickens were raised in 3 isolators, respectively, to provide sufficient water and feed. Each group of chickens was observed 2 times daily, clinical symptoms were observed, and survival rates of chickens were counted.

(2) Animal tissue collection and treatment, namely taking tissue organs of each group of dead chickens, fixing a part of all collected tissues by 4% paraformaldehyde for histopathological analysis, and determining the viral load of each tissue by using a part of the collected tissues as TCID 50. The hands are sterilized before sampling, the metal and glass instruments are sterilized by high-pressure steam, and the white porcelain plate is sterilized by alcohol, so that animals are fixed on the white porcelain plate. The sampling can be performed at an ultra clean bench. During sampling, the scissors forceps are sterilized after the target tissue is found, sampling is performed again, and sterilization is performed once again after sampling, so that the next tissue can be collected. When in disinfection, firstly, the blood and dirt on the scissors and the tweezers are wiped clean by the alcohol cotton ball, the scissors and the tweezers are put on the outer flame of the alcohol lamp for burning and sterilization, and are put into 75% alcohol for standby, and the scissors and the tweezers are burned again before being used, and can be used when the scissors and the tweezers are cooled to room temperature. The sample taken out should be placed into a 1.5mL centrifuge tube as soon as possible, and the tissue type and sampling time should be marked.

(3) Tissue HE staining after fixing the harvested tissue with 4% paraformaldehyde overnight, paraffin embedding, sectioning and HE staining were performed by siegesbeck biotechnology limited.

(4) Tissue viral load the weight of each tissue organ harvested is recorded, typically 600 μl PBS solution per 0.2g tissue. After grinding the tissue according to the instructions of the grinder, the low-temperature centrifuge is at 6000rpm and centrifuged for 5min. The supernatant was aspirated into a fresh sterile 1.5mL EP tube, and diabody (penicillin and streptomycin, 5000 IU/mL) was added overnight at 4 ℃. Subsequently, the supernatant was centrifuged at 6000rpm at low temperature for 5min and the TCID 50/mL experiment was performed in a sterile EP tube. The harvested tissue-milled supernatants were serially diluted 10-fold to 10 0~10-7 with serum-free DMEM medium, each dilution was repeated for at least three groups, inoculated into BHK-21 cells plated one day in advance, TCID 50/mL was determined, the results observed and the data recorded.

Experimental results (1) rF48E9 infected chicks showed mild symptoms of mental depression and open mouth respiration at 2dpi, 3 chicks died at 3dpi, and the rest chicks had rarefaction of feces, anorexia, liquid filled crop and leg paralysis, and all the chicks died at 5 dpi. However, until 10dpi, no obvious clinical symptoms were observed in chicks infected with rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E9/P (K387A). Chicken experiments in PBS control group were healthy throughout. The result shows that the mortality rate of rF48E9 is 100%, and rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E9/P (K387A) are not lethal to 4-week-old chicks. The survival curves are shown in FIG. 6A. (2) The chicken with the dead chicken is cut, the crop of the chicken infected by rF48E9 is filled with thin liquid and gas, the lung is visible as edema, the brain parenchyma has no eye sight change, the spleen has necrotic foci, the duodenal bleeding is most obvious, the glandular stomach nipple has bleeding points, the bursa of Fabricius is edematous, and the liver and the kidney have no special pathological changes. Chicks infected with rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E9/P (K387A) were examined randomly at 6dpi, and no abnormal pathological changes in the organized organs were found. Each tissue organ lesion is shown in FIG. 6B. (3) As shown in FIG. 6C, rF48E9 was able to proliferate in each tissue and organ harvested and was higher in replication capacity than rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E9/P (K387A). These results indicate that the mutant strain has a reduced viral replication capacity compared to the wild-type strain in vivo. (4) As shown in FIG. 6D, the HE staining results show that the pathological changes of the tissues infected by rF48E9 are obvious, the tissues of the duodenum, the adenoma stomach, the myoma stomach and the trachea are all bleeding, the tissue of the duodenum is most seriously bleeding, the tissue cells of the duodenum and the adenoma stomach are obviously denatured and necrotized, the tissue of the myoma stomach is slightly infiltrated by inflammatory cells, the brain and cerebellum tissues are subjected to the phenomenon of blood vessel sleeve, the pathological changes of the tissues infected by rF48E9/P (R386A) and rF48E9/P (K387A) are obviously relieved, only slight bleeding is caused in the brain and the adenoma stomach, the tissue cells of the duodenum and the adenoma stomach are slightly denatured and necrotized, and no obvious pathological changes are seen in the cerebellum, the myoma stomach and the trachea.
