Characterization of two members from the multigenic family of one-domain Kunitz-inhibitors from the tick \kur{Ixodes ricinus}
SINGEROVÁ, Barbora
Two new genes encoding proteins Monolaris 1 and Monolaris 2 were isolated from tick Ixodes ricinus. Both cDNA fragments code for 94 aminoacid residues long protein with molecular mass 8,1kDa (Monolaris 1) and 8,3kDa (Monolaris 2). The function of Monolaris 1 was tested by using RNA interference in adult females of Ixodes ricinus that were subsequently fed on guinea-pigs. Body mass, egg mass and mortality were measured to evaluate the effect of gene silencing. Recombinant protein Monolaris 1 was prepared in bacterial expression system and antibodies against this protein were raised by immunization of a rabbit. Antibodies reacted with approximately 190kDa big protein in salivary gland, ovary and gut whereas monomer of Monolaris 1 was not detected in tick saliva, salivary glands and other tissues.

The gene encoding the coat protein (CP) of Potato virus X was cloned into expression vector pMPM-4A Omega. PVX CP was expressed in Escherichia coli and was used for raising rabbit polyclonal antibodies. For immunization we purified CP fractions from bacterial lysate either by simple fractionation or by excision from SDS gel. The obtained sera and antibodies were tested for the detection of PVX in laboratory hosts Nicotiana tabacum, cv. Petit Havana SR 1 and N.benthamiana and in various cultivars of natural host Solanum tuberosum by ELISA as well as by Western blots. The antibodies were specific for PVX and are usable for the detection of the broad isolates spectrum of the Potato virus X by ELISA and Western blot.
