According to the GenBank sequences (GenBank Accession No. AF539467), one pair of primers was designed to amplify hly gene of Aeromonas hydrophila by PCR. After sequencing, homology analysis indicated that a DNA fragment of 1485 bp was amplified from isolated DNA from Aeromonas hydrophila, and it shared more than 99% homology in nucleotide sequence compared with other reference strains in GenBank. The gene was cloned in pET-28a vector to construct a recombinant plasmid pET-28a-hly, which was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and the recombinant strain BL21(DE3)(pET-28a-hly) was obtained. The hemolysin was highly expressed when the recombinant strain BL21 (DE3) (pET-28a-hly) was induced by IPTG. The expressed protein was 56 kD as estimated by 15% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The immunogenicity of the expressed Hly protein was confirmed by Western blotting. Mice were immunized with inactivated whole bacteria vaccine and the genetic engineering vaccines showing promise that all t
