HA and M2 genes derived from human highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus (A/Anhui/ 1/2005) isolated from China, were amplified and cloned into the DNA vaccine expression vector pVRC. In order to improve the expression of hemagglutinin, the human codon usage preference was made and the whole length of HA gene of H5NI (A/Anhui/1/2005) influenza virus was synthesized,named HA/YH/K, and inserted to pVRC vector, the expression of HA/YH/K protein in eukaryotic cells was significantly improved according to internal control of actin protein. Furthermore, the M2 and HA/YH/K genes were cloned into bicistronic eukaryotic expressing vector pIRES to yield the recombinant plasmid pIRES-HA/ YH/K-M2/YS/K, which could expressed HA and M2 protein simultaneously by transfection of one plasmid. Western blot and IFA showed that the recombinant pIRES-HA/YH/K-M2/YS/K plasmid was successfully expressed in several mammalian cells (Hela, MDCK and 293FT). The above results may help to identify the function and pathogenic mechanism of HA, M2 genes derived from HPAI H5N1 (Anhui strain) and pave a way for the development of novel bivalent vaccines against human highly pathogenic avian influenza virus and for preparedness for influenza pandemic.
