Title
Shrimp protected from a virus by feed containing yeast with a surface-displayed viral binding protein
Abstract
Recombinant Pichia pastoris biomass surface-expressing the viral binding protein PmRab7 (YSD-PmRab7) was prepared by fed-batch, aerobic fermentation with methanol induction for 48 h. By cell based ELISA assay, immunofluorescence and flow cytometry, 45% of the YSD-PmRab7 cells were positive for PmRab7. Freeze dried YSD-PmRab7 cells were added to formulated shrimp feed pellets at 0.25 g and 0.5 g per g feed and fed to 2 shrimp groups for 7 days prior to challenge with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Controls consisted of 1 shrimp group fed normal pellets and one fed pellets containing P. pastoris carrying an empty gene cassette. At 10 days post challenge, survival in the two control groups was 6.7 ± 6.6%, while it was 26.7 ± 6.6% in the 0.25 g YSD-PmRab7 group and significantly higher (p < 0.05) in the 0.5 g YSD-PmRab7 group at 46.7 ± 10.1%. Nested PCR assays and histopathological analysis revealed significantly lower WSSV replication levels in the 0.5 g YSD-PmRab7 group. The results indicated potential for development of YSD-PmRab7 cells as an oral prophylactic against WSSV in shrimp.
