Abstract
Provided is a preparation method for a coronavirus pseudovirus particle. By means of constructing a plasmid (1): a retroviral vector that removes RT and INT genes, in which a gene sequence of an NC protein of the retroviral vector is replaced by a gene sequence of an N protein of a coronavirus; and a plasmid (2): a plasmid expressing a spike protein of the coronavirus and a tag protein, the coronavirus pseudovirus particle is prepared. The pseudovirus particle prepared by the preparation method can efficiently load RNA, thereby enhancing an immune response to SARS-CoV-2-Spike in mice, improving the generation of antibodies, and having very good clinical application prospects.
Description
本发明属于生物技术领域,具体涉及一种冠状病毒假病毒颗粒的制备方法。The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a method for preparing coronavirus pseudovirus particles.
冠状病毒直径约80-120nm,基因组5′端具有甲基化的帽状结构,3′端具有poly(A)尾,基因组全长约27-32kb,是已知RNA病毒中基因组最大的病毒。冠状病毒粒子外有脂肪膜,膜表面一般有三种糖蛋白:刺突蛋白(S,Spike Protein,是受体结合位点、溶细胞作用和主要抗原位点);包膜蛋白(E,Envelope Protein,较小,与包膜结合的蛋白);膜蛋白(M,Membrane Protein,负责营养物质的跨膜运输、新生病毒出芽释放与病毒外包膜的形成)。少数种类还有血凝素糖蛋白(HE蛋白,Haemaglutinin-esterase)。冠状病毒的核酸为非节段单链(+)RNA,长27-31kb,是RNA病毒中最长的RNA核酸链,具有正链RNA特有的重要结构特征:即RNA链5’端有甲基化“帽子”,3’端有PolyA“尾巴”结构。这一结构与真核mRNA非常相似,也是其基因组RNA自身可以发挥翻译模板作用的重要结构基础。The diameter of coronavirus is about 80-120nm, the 5′ end of the genome has a methylated cap structure, the 3′ end has a poly(A) tail, and the total length of the genome is about 27-32kb, which is the largest genome among known RNA viruses. The coronavirus particles are covered with a fat membrane, and the membrane surface generally has three types of glycoproteins: spike protein (S, Spike Protein, which is the receptor binding site, cytolytic effect and main antigenic site); envelope protein (E, Envelope Protein, smaller, protein bound to the envelope); membrane protein (M, Membrane Protein, responsible for the transmembrane transport of nutrients, the budding release of newborn viruses and the formation of the outer envelope of the virus). A few species also have hemagglutinin glycoprotein (HE protein, Haemaglutinin-esterase). The nucleic acid of coronavirus is non-segmented single-stranded (+) RNA, 27-31kb long, which is the longest RNA nucleic acid chain among RNA viruses, and has important structural characteristics unique to positive-strand RNA: that is, there is a methylated "cap" at the 5' end of the RNA chain and a PolyA "tail" structure at the 3' end. This structure is very similar to eukaryotic mRNA and is also an important structural basis for its genomic RNA to serve as a translation template.
新冠病毒基因组全长约29.9kb,该病毒含有四种主要的结构蛋白,除膜表面的三种糖蛋白外,还包括核衣壳蛋白(Nucleocapsid,N蛋白)。S蛋白是冠状病毒非常重要的表面蛋白,与病毒的传染能力密切相关,S蛋白包含S1、S2和受体结合域(RBD),N蛋白在冠状病毒中含量丰富,是一种高度免疫原性蛋白且相对保守,突变率较低,N蛋白从受感染的细胞中释放出来后会自由漂浮。自由漂浮的蛋白引起强烈的免疫反应,导致保护性抗体的产生,N蛋白也是冠状病毒的抗原检测的靶蛋白之一。The total length of the novel coronavirus genome is about 29.9kb. The virus contains four major structural proteins, including nucleocapsid protein (N protein) in addition to the three glycoproteins on the membrane surface. S protein is a very important surface protein of coronavirus and is closely related to the infectious ability of the virus. S protein contains S1, S2 and receptor binding domain (RBD). N protein is abundant in coronavirus and is a highly immunogenic protein that is relatively conservative and has a low mutation rate. N protein floats freely after being released from infected cells. Free-floating proteins cause strong immune responses, leading to the production of protective antibodies. N protein is also one of the target proteins for antigen detection of coronavirus.
目前,针对冠状病毒开发的疫苗主要包括灭活疫苗、腺病毒载体疫苗、减毒流感疫苗、重组蛋白疫苗以及核酸疫苗等。除了灭活疫苗外,其余都是针对S蛋白进行免疫的。由于该病毒从开始至今一直处于不断突变的过程中,单一毒株疫苗对其保护效率较低。已有报道,基于慢病毒载体***通过替换其ENV蛋白构建病毒样颗粒(Virus Like particles,VLP)用于疫苗制备和基因递送等方向的应用(Virus-like particles preparation,immunogenicity and their roles as nanovaccines and drug nanocarriers)。At present, the vaccines developed for coronavirus mainly include inactivated vaccines, adenovirus vector vaccines, attenuated influenza vaccines, recombinant protein vaccines and nucleic acid vaccines. Except for inactivated vaccines, the rest are immunized against S protein. Since the virus has been in a process of continuous mutation since its inception, the protection efficiency of a single strain vaccine is low. It has been reported that virus-like particles (VLPs) constructed by replacing the ENV protein based on the lentiviral vector system are used for vaccine preparation and gene delivery (Virus-like particles preparation, immunogenicity and their roles as nanovaccines and drug nanocarriers).
申请号为CN202210120315的专利中公开了用于预防SARS-CoV-2奥密克戎株的腺病毒载体疫苗。采用密码子偏好性进行优化得到新的S基因序列,其能高效在人源细胞内高效表
达,免疫机体后可高效表达S抗原,产生针对奥密克戎株SARS-CoV-2的中和抗体,可以有效保护机体免受奥密克戎株的侵染。但其针对性较强,因此实际应用受限。Patent application number CN202210120315 discloses an adenovirus vector vaccine for preventing the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron strain. The new S gene sequence was optimized by codon preference, which can be efficiently expressed in human cells. After the immunization, the S antigen can be efficiently expressed, and neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron strain of SARS-CoV-2 can be produced, which can effectively protect the body from infection by the Omicron strain. However, its specificity is relatively strong, so its practical application is limited.
申请号为CN201080020498的专利中公开了非整合型、非复制型逆转录病毒载体,当向动物宿主施用时其在宿主中引起免疫反应。载体转导宿主中的细胞,在那里它们产生病毒样颗粒(VLP),所述病毒样颗粒在从细胞释放时在宿主中刺激另外的免疫反应。载体是非整合型、非复制型逆转录病毒载体,包括长末端重复序列、包装序列和与共同编码病毒的结构蛋白的一种或多种多核苷酸序列可操作地连接的异源启动子。还公开了制造和使用所述载体的方法。但其主要针对的是HIV疫苗,该方法针对冠状病毒特别是SARS-CoV-2的应用仍需要进一步改进。Patent application number CN201080020498 discloses a non-integrating, non-replicating retroviral vector that causes an immune response in an animal host when administered to the host. The vector transduces cells in the host, where they produce virus-like particles (VLPs), which stimulate additional immune responses in the host when released from the cells. The vector is a non-integrating, non-replicating retroviral vector comprising a long terminal repeat sequence, a packaging sequence, and a heterologous promoter operably linked to one or more polynucleotide sequences encoding structural proteins of the virus. A method for making and using the vector is also disclosed. However, it is mainly aimed at HIV vaccines, and the application of this method to coronaviruses, especially SARS-CoV-2, still needs further improvement.

Under alkaline conditions, when BCA binds to protein, the protein reduces Cu 2+ to Cu + . One Cu + chelates two BCA molecules. The working reagent changes from the original apple green to a purple complex with the highest absorption value at 562nm. Its absorption value can be measured at 540-595nm. The depth of the color is proportional to the protein concentration. By comparing with the standard curve, the concentration of the protein to be tested can be calculated.
