Abstract:
Objective: To establish cloning vector and standard positive control of molecular biology diagnosis of toxoplasmosis based on the 529 bp repetitive fragment to detect the presence of
Toxoplasma gondii (
T.gondii).
Methods: The repetitive 529 bp DNA fragment from
T.gondii was amplified by PCR and was inserted into pMD18-T vectors to construct recombinant plasmid and transformed to E.coli DH-5α.A pair of primers were designed and synthesized based on the 529 bp sequence to amplify the 249 bp fragment gene and plasmid DNA of
T.gondii.
Results: The 529 bp DNA fragment of
T.gondii was successfully amplified and inserted into pMD18-T vectors after purification.The 249 bp fragment was amplified by PCR using
T.gondii gemome DNA and recombinant plasmid DNA as template.
Conclusions: Successfully cloned assay of 529 bp DNA fragment of
T.gondii and amplified the 249 bp DNA fragment have laied the foundation of development of
T.gondii diagnostic kit.
