Abstract To establish a cost-effective detection method for Cry1 toxins, a hybridoma cell line 2D10 was used as a cDNA template to construct a single-chain antibody (scFv) gene via gene splicing by overlap extension PCR (SOE-PCR). After being transferred into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), the scFv gene was expressed and a double antibody sandwich ELISA (DAS-ELISA) was established. Meanwhile, the key factors affecting the interaction of scFv to Cry1A toxins were analyzed by molecular docking simulation. As a result, the scFv gene was successfully constructed and the scFv antibody with high activity was purified (about 28 kD). The minimum detection limit (LOD) of the established DAS-ELISA for Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac toxin was 20 ng/mL. The docking results showed that the three-dimensional structure of the toxin determined its binding activity, hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interaction played an important role during the binding process between scFv and Cry1A toxins. In this study, a scFv was constructed and expressed based on genetic engineering antibody technology, a DAS-ELISA was established for Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac toxin determination and the recognization mechanism difference of scFv to Cry1Ac/Cry1Ab and Cry1Aa was preliminarily analyzed which provide a theoretical basis for the research and development of a new broad-spectrum scFv.
