Molecular and Structural Insights into Buffalo Interleukin-17A.
Journal of Interferon & Cytokine Research 2024 March 27
Interleukin-17A is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in the immune response to many pathogens and implicated in autoimmune diseases. This molecule is also involved in providing protection to many bacterial and fungal infections of gastro-intestinal tract and respiratory mucosa. Although molecular aspect of IL-17A has been studied in few species, no data are available for buffalo, which is one of the major sources of milk production in India. Therefore, in the present study, IL-17A gene of Indian Murrah Buffalo origin was cloned, expressed, and analyzed using bioinformatic tools. The coding sequence of buffalo IL-17A gene was cloned in prokaryotic expression vector (pET-28a) followed by its expression, purification, and characterization. A computational analysis was performed to understand the sequence, structure, and evolutionary relationship of buIL-17A. It revealed that the length of buIL-17A sequence without signal peptide is 132 amino acids as in cattle. However, sequence identity is found to be 99% due to one amino substitution difference between buffalo and cattle. After analysis, it can be concluded that buIL-17A recombinant protein can be used as a potential immunobiological reagent for diagnostic and therapeutic purpose.
