title: [Clone expression and purification of influenza A virus nucleoprotein gene].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To clone the influenza A virus NP gene into expression vector and to purify the target protein, which was used to study the preparation of monoclonal antibody.
  
  
  METHODS
  The RNA of influenza A virus was extracted and primers were designed according the NP gene sequence, then the NP gene of influenza A virus was expressed in E.coli DH5alpha and the NP protein was purified by affinity chromatography.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The recombinant expression vector-pGEX-4T-2-NP was successfully constructed and relatively pure target protein was obtained.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Through reasonably controlling the fermentation time, growth temperature and induction concentration, satisfactory soluble target product was obtained.
