Abstract

A fusion protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) for PRRSV vaccine. The fusion protein includes: (a) a Pseudomoitas Exoloxin A (PE) peptide that comprises a binding domain and a translocating domain; (b) a peptide fragment that contains a N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein; (c) a peptide fragment that has a N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF5 protein; and (d) a carboxyl terminal domain that comprises an amino acid seciuence KDEL. The PE peptide is located at the N-terminus of the fusion protein, and the peptide fraament containinC the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF5 protein is located between the peptide fragment containing the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein and the carboxyl terminal domain.

Claims (28)

1. A fusion protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) comprising:

a. a Pseudomonas Exotoxin A (PE) peptide comprising a binding domain and a translocating domain;

b. a N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein;

c. a N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF5 protein; and

d. a carboxyl terminal domain comprising an amino acid sequence KDEL, wherein the PE peptide is located at the N-terminus of the fusion protein, and the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF5 protein is located between the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein and the carboxyl terminal domain.

2. The fusion protein of claim 1 , wherein the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein comprises an amino acid sequence set forth by SEQ ID NO: 13 or SEQ ID NO: 14 .

3. The fusion protein of claim 1 , wherein the N-rerminalportion of PRRSV ORF5 comprises an amino acid sequence set forth by SEQ ID NO: 12 or SEQ ID NO: 15.

4. The fusion protein of claim 3 , wherein the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein comprises an amino acid sequence set forth by SEQ ID NO: 13 or SEQ ID NO: 14.

5. A fusion protein of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) comprising:

a. a Pseudomonas Exotoxin A (PE) peptide comprising a binding domain and a translocating domain:

b. a peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF6 protein that is devoid of the C-terminal portion:

c. a peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF5 protein that is devoid of the C-terminal portion: and

d. a carboxyl terminal domain comprising an amino acid secuuence KDEL, wherein the PE peptide is located at the N-terminus of the fusion protein, and the peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF5 Protein is located between the peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF6 protein and the carboxyl terminal domain.

6. The fusion protein of claim 5 , wherein the carboxyl terminal domain comprises an amino acid sequence KDELRDELKDEL.

7. The fusion protein of claim 5 , wherein the peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF6 protein and the peptide fragment containing PRRSV ORF5 protein each comprise at least one neutralization epitope.

8. The fusion protein of claim 1 , wherein the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF6 protein and the N-terminal portion of PRRSV ORF5 protein each comprise at least one neutralization epitope.

9. The fusion protein of claim 1 , wherein the PRRSV is at least one selected from the group consisting of an American strain, an European strain, and an Australian strain.

10. The fusion protein of claim 1 , wherein the carboxyl terminal comprises an amino acid sequence KDELRDELKDEL.

11. A vaccine composition for treating and/or preventing PRRS, comprising an effective amount of the fusion protein of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

12. A vaccine composition for treating and/or preventing PRRS, comprising an effective amount of the fusion protein of claim 2 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
