Abstract:The principle of baculovirus expression system is that substitute exogenous gene for polyhedrin gene (poly),and the recombinant baculoviruses lack the ability to infect insect larvae by oral inoculation.In order to deal with this problem,we cloned the poly gene with its promoter of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) into pigA3GFP vector,and transported it into BmN cells by lipofectamine with helper vector pHA3PIG.After several rounds of selecting,the transgenic BmN cells were obtained.Then the poly gene negative viruses,BmPAK6 (Lac Z) and BmGFP (GFP),infected the transgenic BmN cells.Subsequently,the viruses (BmPAK6 and BmGFP) from infected cells were used to orally inoculated the 5th instar larvae of Bombyx mori (B.mori),respectively.The results showed that B.mori larvae could be infected per os with the recombinant baculoviruses BmPAK6 and BmGFP,respectively.These results suggest that the products of poly gene expressed in the transgenic BmN cells could raise the pathogenicity of the recombinant virus in orally infected B.mori arvae.
