    Example 1: Detection of Immunoactivity of Different Types of RG-1 Epitope Peptides

    [0074] HPV35, -39, -51, -53, -56, -59, -68, -82 RG-1 epitope peptides were synthesized using chemical synthesis, and the sequences of the epitope peptides were as shown in Table 1. The polypeptides were synthesized by GL Biochem (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. In order to improve the immunogenicity of the synthetic peptides, each synthetic peptide was coupled with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) after activation of carboxyl group by 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC, CAS No. 25952-53-8). New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.0-2.5 kg were randomly divided into groups, 2-4 rabbits per group. Four days before immunization, 15 mg of inactivated DH5a (PBS containing 0.5% v/v formaldehyde, treated at 37? C. for 24-48 h) thoroughly mixed with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant was injected subcutaneously at multiple sites on the back for immunostimulation. The first immunization was performed by subcutaneous injection of 1 mg of KLH-polypeptide thoroughly mixed with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant at multiple sites on the back and inner thigh. Booster immunization was performed for 4 times at an interval of 2 weeks, and the antigen of the booster immunization was 0.5 mg of KLH-polypeptide thoroughly mixed with an equal volume of Freund's incomplete adjuvant. Blood was collected 2 weeks after the last immunization and serum was isolated.

    [0075] Seventeen HPV pseudoviruses were used to detect the titers of neutralizing antibodies in the immune serum, and the results were shown in Table 2. The 59RG-1 epitope peptide had the best immune activity, and its antiserum could neutralize all 17 types used for detection, of which the titers of neutralizing antibodies of HPV45, -59, -16 were all above 10.sup.3, and the titers of neutralizing antibodies of HPV5, -31, -18, -39, -68, -57 were between 500 and 1000. It was worth noticing that the 59RG-1 epitope peptide antiserum had high levels of neutralizing antibodies against the five ?7-HPV used for detection.

    [0076] Methods of polypeptide synthesis, pseudovirus preparation and pseudoviral neutralization experiments were all publicly available, for example, the patents CN 104418942A and 108676057A.

    Example 7: Comparison of Expression Amount of Chimeric L1 Proteins in Insect Cells

    [0112] 1?10.sup.6 cells expressing the 18L1 backbone protein with 32-amino acid truncation at C-terminus, as well as cells expressing the chimeric L1 proteins with the 18L1 with 32-amino acid truncation at C-terminus as backbone, or with the 6 types of 18L1 mutants as backbone, respectively, were collected and resuspended in 200 ?l of PBS solution. The cells were disrupted by ultrasonic disruption (Ningbo Scientz Ultrasonic Cell Disruptor, 2 #probe, 100 W, ultrasound 5 s, interval 7 s, total time 3 min) and centrifuged at a high speed of 12,000 rpm for 10 minutes. The lysed supernatant was collected and the L1 content in the supernatant was detected by sandwich ELISA, which was well known, for example, the patent CN104513826A.

    [0113] Microtiter plates were coated with HPV18 L1 monoclonal antibodies prepared by the inventor at 80 ng/well by overnight incubation at 4? C. The plate was blocked with 5% BSA-PBST at room temperature for 2 h and washed 3 times with PBST. The lysed supernatant was subjected to 2-fold serial dilution with PBS. The HPV18L1 VLP standard was also subjected to serial dilution from a concentration of 2 ?g/ml to 0.0625 ?g/ml. The diluted samples were added to the plate respectively at 100 ?l per well and incubated at 37? C. for 1 h. The plate was washed 3 times with PBST, and 1:3000 diluted HPV18L1 rabbit polyclonal antibody was added at 100 ?l per well and incubated at 37? C. for 1 h. The plate was washed 3 times with PBST, and 1:3000 diluted HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (1:3000 dilution, ZSGB-Bio Corporation) was added and incubated at 37? C. for 45 minutes. The plate was washed 5 times with PBST, and 100 ?l of OPD substrate (Sigma) was added to each well for chromogenic reaction at 37? C. for 5 minutes. The reaction was stopped with 50 ?l of 2 M sulfuric acid, and the absorbance at 490 nm was determined. The concentrations of HPV18L1 protein and 18L1 chimeric proteins in the lysed supernatant were calculated according to the standard curve.

    [0114] The results were as shown in Table 3. The expression amounts of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dES, 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES, 18L1?Ch4.sub.431-433/59dE and 18L1?Ch4.sub.432-435/59dE of the present invention were very high, comparable to that of the HPV18L1 backbone. In addition, the expression amounts of the chimeric proteins with the 18L1 mutants with amino acid substitutions at C-terminus as backbone, namely 18L1DE.sub.137-138/59dES-mut1, 18L1DE.sub.137-138/59dES-mut4, 18L1DE.sub.137-138/59dES-mut5, were all higher than that of the HPV18L1 backbone and the corresponding C-terminal truncated chimeric protein.

    Example 8: Purification and Dynamic Light Scattering Particle Size Analysis of the Chimeric L1 Proteins

    [0115] An appropriate amount of cell fermentation broth of chimeric L1 was collected and the cells were resuspended with 10 ml of PBS. PMSF was added to a final concentration of 1 mg/ml. The cells were ultrasonically disrupted (Ningbo Scientz Ultrasonic Cell Disruptor, 6 #probe, 200 W, ultrasound 5 s, interval 7 s, total time 10 min) and the disrupted supernatant was collected for purification. The purification steps were carried out at room temperature. 4% ?-mercaptoethanol (w/w) was added to the lysate to disaggregate VLP. Then the samples were filtered with 0.22 ?m filters, followed by sequential purification with DMAE anion exchange chromatography or CM cation exchange chromatography (20 mM Tris, 180 mM NaCl, 4% ?-ME, elution at pH 7.9), TMAE anion exchange chromatography or Q cation exchange chromatography (20 mM Tris, 180 mM NaCl, 4% ?-ME, elution at pH 7.9) and hydroxyapatite chromatography (100 mM NaH.sub.2PO.sub.4, 30 mM NaCl, 4% ?-ME, elution at pH 6.0). The purified product was concentrated and buffer (20 mM NaH.sub.2PO.sub.4, 500 mM NaCl, pH 6.0) exchange was performed using Planova ultrafiltration system to prompt VLP assembly. The above purification methods were all publicly available, for example, the patents CN 101293918 B, CN 1976718 A, etc.

    [0116] Severe aggregation was found for 18L1h4.sub.431-433/59dE, 18L1h4.sub.432-435/59dE, 18L1?Ch4.sub.431-433/59dE and 18L1?Ch4.sub.432-435/59dE during the assembly of pure chimeric proteins, while aggregation was not observed for other chimeric proteins after assembly. The assembled chimeric protein solutions were subjected to DLS particle size analysis (Zetasizer Nano ZS 90 Dynamic Light Scattering Analyzer, Malvern), and the results were as shown in Table 4. Among them, the DLS analysis plots of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dE, 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dES, 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dE, 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES were as shown in FIG. 2A to FIG. 2D.

    Example 9: Transmission Electron Microscopy Observation of Chimeric VLPs

    [0117] The chimeric proteins were purified separately according to the chromatographic purification method described in Example 8. The assembled chimeric proteins were prepared on copper mesh, stained with 1% uranium acetate, fully dried and then observed using JEM-1400 electron microscope (Olympus). The results showed that the chimeric proteins expressed by both E. coli and insect cells could be assembled into cVLPs with a diameter of about 50 nm. Among them, the electron microscopy images of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dE, 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dES, 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dE, 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES cVLPs were as shown in FIG. 3A to FIG. 3D. Methods of copper mesh preparation and electron microscopy observation were all publicly available, for example, the patent CN 101148661 B.

    Example 10: Immunization of Mice with Chimeric VLPs and Determination of Neutralizing Antibody Titers

    [0118] 4-6 weeks old BALB/c mice were randomly divided into groups, 5 mice per group, and 10 ?g cVLP in combination with 50 ?g Al(OH); and 5 ?g MPL adjuvant were used to immunize mice by subcutaneous injection at Weeks 0, 4, 7, 10 for a total of 4 times. Tail vein blood was collected 2 weeks after the 4th immunization and serum was isolated.

    [0119] 24 types of HPV pseudoviruses were used to detect the neutralizing antibody titers of the immune serum. The results showed that after immunizing mice with various cVLPs produced by E. coli and insect cell expression systems, the levels and neutralization range of the induced cross-neutralizing antibodies were different with each other. Among them, as shown in Table 5, the antiserum of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dES and 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES cVLPs expressed by insect cells could neutralize at least 23 types of pseudoviruses, and the immune serum of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dE and 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dE cVLPs could neutralize at least 19 types of pseudoviruses. It was worth mentioning that the antiserum of 18L1?CDE.sub.134-135/59dES and 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES cVLP could neutralize all 6 ?7-HPVs used for detection, in particular for 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES cVLP, the antibody titers to cross-neutralize ?7-HPVs were all above 250, and it was the cVLP with the strongest cross-neutralization ability against ?7-HPVs reported so far.

    [0120] In addition, after immunizing mice with the above strategy, the cVLPs constructed with 18L1 mutants with 32-amino acid truncation at C-terminus in the present invention could also induce high levels of neutralizing antibodies. Among them, the level of each type of neutralizing antibody induced by 18L1DE.sub.137-138/59dES-mut4 was comparable to those induced by 18L1?CDE.sub.137-138/59dES. It was worth noticing that the HPV39 and HPV59 neutralizing antibody titers of 18L1DE.sub.137-138/59dES-mut4 immune serum were both greater than 10.sup.3 (as shown in Table 5 and FIG. 4).

    [0121] Methods of pseudovirus preparation and pseudoviral neutralization experiments were all publicly available, for example, the patent CN 104418942A.
