Description
The present invention relates to a method for easily analyzing influx of an antibody produced by a cell-free protein synthesis method into the cytoplasm.
Generally, the synthesis reaction of a protein in a cell is firstly transferred from the DNA having the genetic information to the mRNA, and then the ribosome translates the mRNA information to synthesize the protein. In this way, cell-free protein synthesis, which performs protein synthesis in cells in vitro in vitro, extracts only the intracellular protein synthesis machinery involved in protein production in cells and their factors, Is a technology for mass production of a target protein in a short period of time by artificially repeating only the synthesis process of the protein in a state in which the physiological regulatory mechanism of the protein is excluded. Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase can be used either separately or in combination with those contained in the cell extract (Yoshihiro Shimizu et al., 2001, Nature Biotechnology, 19 (8): 751-755; Tae-Wan Kim et al., 2006, Journal of Biotechnology, 126 (4): 554-561). The conventional cell-free protein synthesis system maintains high performance comparable to protein synthesis in the rate of polymer synthesis reaction and accuracy of translation reaction, and is known as a useful method for obtaining a target protein without performing a complicated purification process. Several inventions have been disclosed for improving synthesis efficiency and economics for more useful industrial applications.
On the other hand, antibodies having unique target specificity and strong binding affinity have been used in various fields ranging from molecular sensors to diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In particular, the therapeutic antibody development field has continued to grow since the commercialization of orthoclone OKT3 in 1986. 47 monoclonal antibody products have been approved in the US and Europe since 2014 and the therapeutic antibody market is expected to reach $ 125 billion by 2020. Although antibodies are the fastest growing segment of modern therapeutics, antibodies have been limited to surface-exposed proteins or secreted proteins for therapeutic antibody intervention, since antibodies generally can not pass through cell membranes. Thus, given that 20-30% of the cellular proteins are distributed within the cytoplasm, developing a method of delivering antibodies across the cell membrane will provide an opportunity to explore the unexplored regions of the novel antibody target. A number of methods have been evaluated for antibody delivery into cells including microinjection, electroporation and conjugation with the protein delivery domain (PTD). However, these methods have a number of barriers to be addressed such as cytotoxicity, loss of stability, lysosomal degradation, endosome reuse and low membrane permeability of the delivered antibody.

2. In E. coli TMab4 scFv Expression of antibodies
The DNA encoding the heavy and light chain variable regions of the cytotransmab TMab4 (Kim et al., 2009., Biochem Biophys Res Commun, 379 (2), 314-318) was amplified by PCR and the scFv version (TMab4 (G4S) 3 linker sequence to generate the < RTI ID = 0.0 > scFv). < / RTI > TMab4 GFP peptide in 11 scFv sequence (Cabantous et al., 2005., Nat Biotechnol, 23 (1), 102-107) and a speed-streptavidin binding peptide (SBP2) (Barrette-Ng et al., 2013., Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr, 69 (Pt 5), 879-887). The resulting sequence (TMab4 scFv-GFP11-SBP2) was cloned into the plasmid pIg20m and named pIg20m TMab4 scFv-GFP11-SBP2 (Figure 1A).
BL21 (DE3) plysE derived from Escherichia coli transformed with plasmid pIg20m TMab4 scFv-GFP11-SBP2 was inoculated into 2 x TYA medium (18 g / L tryptone, 10 g / L yeast extract, 5 g / L NaCl, 100 g / L ampicillin and pH 7.4) at 37 ° C. When the OD 600 value reached 0.8, the cells were induced with 0.2 mM IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside) and cultured at 30 ° C. for 20 hours. Since the TMab4 scFv-GFP11-SBP2 was cloned in frame to the phoA signal sequence, the produced antibodies were purified from the culture medium after centrifugation (9,000 RCF, 4 캜 and 40 min). The purified cell culture was loaded onto a 2 mL IgG Sepharose resin column equilibrated with TBS (Tris-buffered saline) at pH 7.4. After washing with 50 mL of TBS, the protein was eluted with 10 mL of 0.1 M acetic acid (pH 3.0). The eluate was neutralized with 2M Tris (pH 9.5) in 0.25mL, salts of 14mL removed (desalting)
3. TMab4 scFv Antibody Acellular cell synthesis
The gene of TMab4 scFv cloned into plasmid pIg20m was amplified by PCR using primers of T7 promoter and T7 terminator sequence. The ubiquitin sequence was added before the heavy chain variable region (VH) using overlap-extension PCR (OE-PCR) (Fig. 1C) to enhance the expression level and solubility of TMab4 scFv. To remove the ubiquitin sequence from the translation product, a Factor Xa cleavage site was introduced between the ubiquitin and VH sequences.

During protein synthesis, the ubiquitin sequence in For situ cleavage, 40 / / mL of Factor Xa enzyme was added to the reaction mixture. The TMab4 scFv antibody produced by the cell-free protein synthesis method was quantified by measuring TCA-insoluble radioactivity using a Tri-Carb 2810TR liquid scintillation counter (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass.). Cell-free synthetic proteins were analyzed by 12% tricine gel stained with coomassie blue and Western blot.
After completion of the cell-free synthesis reaction, the centrifuged (20,000 RCF and 10 minutes) supernatant was mixed with 1.2 mL streptavidin agarose beads equilibrated with PBS (phosphate-buffered saline). After holding at 4 ° C for 1 hour, the resin was washed three times with 10 mL of PBS and the binding protein was eluted with 1.6 mL of 5 mM desthiobiotin.
4. Separated- GFP Complementarity split - GFP complementation ) For cell membrane-permeation analysis
The TMab4 scFv antibody produced from transformed E. coli or produced by cell-free protein synthesis was analyzed based on the -GFP complementarity isolated in reporter cells (Kim et al., 2015., Biochem Biophys Res Commun, 467 ), 771-777), streptavidin and avidin 1 -10 GFP HeLa cell line (HeLa-SA-GFP 1 -10 ) expressing the fusion construct of the fragment was used as a reporter cells. As described in Figure 1, the TMab4 scFv construct contains the SBP2 sequence after the GFP 11 fragment, so that the interaction between streptavidin and SBP2 brings the GFP 1 -10 and GFP 11 sequences in close proximity, May appear. HeLa-SA-GFP 1-10 cells were inoculated into 6-well plates at 3 × 10 4 cells per well and incubated for 12 hours at 37 ° C. and 5% CO 2 to confirm permeation of the TMab4 scFv antibody into the cytoplasm Lt; / RTI > The medium was removed and the cells were washed with PBS to resuspend the purified TMab4 scFv antibody and fresh medium in a 1: 3 ratio mixture. The re-suspended cells per well was transferred to a 3 × 10 4 6-well plates at a cell density. After further incubation for 12 hours, the cells were washed three times with PBS and fixed on the plate surface. Cell activity was then measured using MTT assay, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for confocal microscopy and stained with Hoechst 33342.
Example One. TMab4 scFv Antibody Acellular cell Expression and analysis
Cell-free protein synthesis uses a translation mechanism that is separate from the cells for protein production. Compared with the cell-based expression method of Comparative Example 1 below, acellular-protein synthesis provides a faster and more flexible option for gene expression, allowing rapid analysis of the expression of various gene sequences. In addition, the reaction conditions for cell-free synthesis can be precisely adjusted according to the physicochemical properties of the target protein. In this Example 1, a TMab4 scFv antibody was produced using a cell-free protein synthesis method as a method for producing a TMab4 scFv antibody. As a result, in the initial experiment in which the PCR amplified gene construct of TMab4 scFv antibody was expressed in the standard reaction mixture as shown in Fig. 2, about 220 / / ml of the TMab4 scFv antibody was synthesized, but only a part of the synthesized protein was present in the soluble fraction (About 18%). These results suggest that the translation product may contain the phoA signal sequence, which may interfere with the proper folding of the TMab4 scFv antibody, due to the absence of the transmembrane structure of E. coli. Thus, constructs without phoA signal sequence were constructed, but removal of this sequence did not improve the solubility of the TMab4 scFv antibody and reduced the total amount of synthesized protein to 75 μg / mL. To increase the production of soluble enhanced scFv antibodies comprising two disulfide (SS) linkages, the reaction mixture was supplemented with a redox buffer (2 mM oxidized glutathione and 3 mM reductase (Oh et al., 2006., Biotechnol Prog, 22 (4), 1225-1228). In addition, S12 cell extracts were prepared after overexpression of four foldases DsbA, DsbC, FkbA and SurA in E. coli strains. However, the application of these oxidation conditions did not significantly increase the solubility of the TMab4 scFv antibody in nature.
It is well known that the amino acid sequence of the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) significantly affects the stability and solubility of the antibody. The TMab4 scFv antibody has a transmembrane hT4 VL with multiple cation residues in CDR1, which is thought to be responsible for their low expression and stability.
Comparative Example One. In E. coli TMab4 scFv Expression of antibodies
Approximately 0.4 mg of TMab4 scFv antibody was obtained from 3 L of transformed E. coli culture. GFP fluorescence was not observed in the cytoplasm of the reporter cells up to 7 μM (295 μg / mL) when the TMab4 scFv antibody purified at various concentrations was added to 200 μl of the HeLa-SA-GFP 1 -10 cell culture medium ). These results indicate that the antibody produced through E. coli has lower cell membrane-permeability or stability because TMab4 is in the scFv form. The addition of large quantities of the TMab4 scFv antibody would produce a detectable fluorescence signal. Cell-based expression methods have limited throughput in testing multiple gene constructs. In particular, subsequent membrane-permeation assays require large-scale cultures of E. coli to obtain purified TMab4 scFv antibodies. In addition, inefficient folding of the TMab4 scFv antibody during the expression in E. coli cells may cause a partially low delivery ratio.
Example 2. Ubiquitin Using tags to improve availability TMab4 scFv Production of antibodies
In Example 2, the ubiquitin sequence was fused to the N-terminus of the gene construct used for cell-free synthesis of TMab4 scFv. As shown in Figure 1C, the ubiquitin-tag sequence was added in place of the phoA sequence through an overlap-extension PCR (OE-PCR) reaction. When cultivated under disulfide conditions, the new construct (FIG. 1C) significantly increased the total amount and soluble fraction of synthesized protein (FIG. 4), as compared to the construct without the ubiquitin sequence (FIGS. 1A and 1B). For ubiquitin-TMab4 scFv, 180 [mu] g / ml of the TMab4 scFv antibody was produced, of which about 50% was in the soluble fraction. Therefore, the amount of soluble TMab4 scFv antibody synthesized in 4 mL of cell-free synthesis reaction was similar to that obtained from 3 L of E. coli cell culture.
Example 3. TMab4 scFv of Ubiquitin Tag In situ Cleavage and Membrane Permeation Analysis
The ubiquitin-tagged TMab4 scFv construct of the present invention comprises Factor Xa cleavage sites between the ubiquitin tag and the VH sequence. As shown in Figure 5, during the acellular synthesis, the in To produce the TMab4 scFv antibody with the native amino acid sequence through situ cleavage, various concentrations of Factor Xa enzyme were added to the reaction mixture prior to incubation. As a result, Western blot analysis of the translation product, as shown in Figure 6, showed TMab4 scFv (41.93 kDa) antibody at the expected size depending on the concentration of Factor Xa used in the reaction mixture. The ratio of soluble TMab4 scFv antibody was confirmed by comparing the ubiquitin-tagged TMab4 scFv antibody with the original TMab4 scFv antibody, and it was confirmed that the ubiquitin tag was completely removed when Factor Xa of 40 ㎍ / mL or more was treated.
The TMab4 scFv antibody synthesized from 4 mL of the reaction mixture supplemented with 40 μg / mL of Factor Xa was purified with streptavidin-coated agarose resin and dissolved in 5 mM desthiobiotin solution After elution, about 130 μg of purified protein was obtained in a total of 1.5 mL. When reporter cells were treated with purified TMab4 scFv antibody, GFP fluorescence was observed at a much lower concentration (750 nM) than when using the same antibody produced in E. coli cells (Fig. 7). Observation of GFP fluorescence indicates that the cell-free synthesized antibody is internalized into the cell and secreted into the cytoplasm from the intermediate endosomal vesicle. Compared with the antibody produced through E. coli, the successful permeation of the cell-free synthetic antibody into the cell membrane was judged to be due to the difference in cell permeability or GFP complementation efficiency in the reporter cells. In any of these cases, Will be affected by. The reaction conditions of a cell-free system containing a redox potential can thus be meticulously adjusted to specific antibodies, while E. coli cells can only provide a pre-set environment in their periplasmic space, This may not be an optimal condition for antibody folding. Thus, the flexibility of the cell-free synthesis system in terms of manipulating the molecular environment of protein synthesis would be very beneficial for the functional expression of various types of antibody molecules.
