According to the method of the present invention, it is possible to detect a substance that is present in a trace amount in a biological sample and is usually difficult to detect.
- test substance In order to detect a substance in a biological sample, a method using a substance that specifically binds to the substance (test substance) has been widely used. For example, a so-called immunoassay using an antigen-antibody reaction, nucleic acid hybridization using a hydrogen bond between nucleic acid chains, and the like.
- the test substance if the test substance is an antibody, the antigen is immobilized. Conversely, if the test substance is an antigen, the antibody is immobilized on a carrier such as a microplate, a microbead, or a sensor chip and reacted with the test substance. Then, the presence / absence and extent of the antigen-antibody reaction is detected and measured.
- Hydrophobic bonds, covalent bonds, etc. are known as general methods for immobilization.
- “Hydrophobic binding” utilizes the interaction between the hydrophobic surface of the carrier and the hydrophobic portion of a protein that binds specifically to the substance to be detected (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “specific protein”).
- specific protein a protein that binds specifically to the substance to be detected
- the binding force is generally weak, and when used for ELISA (Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) or the like, the protein often leaves the carrier by a washing operation after the binding.
- ELISA Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay
- the “covalent bond” uses an interaction between a functional group (for example, an amino group) in a specific protein and a functional group (for example, a carboxyl group) arranged on the surface of the carrier, and has a strong binding force.
- a functional group for example, an amino group

- (strept) avidin is first bound to a substrate such as a microplate by covalent bond or hydrophobic bond, and then bound to a biotinylated protein. There is a way to fix it.
- avidin is first bound to a biotin-bound substrate by an avidin-biotin bond, and the desired biotinylated protein is bound to another biotin pocket of the avidin, whereby the substrate-biotin-avidin is bound.
- a technique of immobilizing in the order of -biotin-desired protein has been reported (JP-A-4-236353).
- a test substance can be detected using a plate immobilized by such a method.
- Non-specific binding that causes background signals is reduced in a specific binding assay system using a solid phase in which proteins that specifically bind to test substances such as antigens and antibodies are bound by hydrophobic or covalent bonds.
- Methods for solving this problem include, for example, a method in which a bacterial component extract is contained in a detection reagent (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-99257), and the same type of vector used for production of a recombinant protein that specifically binds to a test substance. And a method for adding a culture component of a host cell introduced with a vector not containing a gene encoding the protein to a sample (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No.

- SITH-1 is a factor involved in latent infection of herpesvirus, more specifically, a protein specifically expressed during latent infection of herpesvirus.
- “specifically expressed at the time of latent infection of herpes virus” specifically means that when a herpes virus is latently infected (not proliferatively infected) in a host infected with herpes virus, It means that a gene or gene product derived from a herpes virus is expressed.
- Examples of the protein and nucleic acid of SITH-1 include (a) a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and a nucleic acid encoding this protein.
- the SITH-1 protein consisting of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 is isolated and identified as a protein that is specifically expressed during latent infection with human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6), as shown in a reference example described later. It has been done.
- the SITH-1 protein is a protein having an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 and consisting of 159 amino acids and having a molecular weight of about 17.5 kDa.
- SITH-1 protein is encoded by the nucleic acid of the SITH-1 gene.
- the cDNA of this SITH-1 gene has a size of 1795 base pairs (about 1.79 kbp), and the 954th to 956th base sequences are the start codon (Kozak ATG).
- the base sequence from the 1431st to 1433th is a stop codon (TAA). Therefore, the SITH-1 nucleic acid has a 954 to 1430 base sequence as an open reading frame (ORF) in the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 3, and this ORF has 477 base pairs (about 0.48 kbp).
- ORF open reading frame
- the base sequence representing the ORF region is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.
- the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 is described including the 3 bases of the stop codon.
- the SITH-1 nucleic acid is always expressed in the cytoplasm of cells latently infected with HHV-6, whereas no expression is observed in proliferatively infected cells.
- the nucleic acid encoding the SITH-1 protein is encoded by DNA complementary to the HHV-6 latent infection specific gene (H6LT) reported so far, and its expression is intermediate between the latent infection of HHV-6. Strengthen in stages. From these facts, the SITH-1 protein is considered to be a protein that is specifically expressed during latent infection with HHV-6.
- SITH-1 protein binds to host protein CAML (calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand, Access #; U18242) to increase the intracellular calcium concentration in glial cells.
- CAML is a protein that is abundant in the brain and lymphocytes in the host organism and is known to increase intracellular calcium concentration.
- an increase in intracellular calcium concentration due to the expression of SITH-1 protein leads to activation of general signal transduction in latently infected cells, and is considered to contribute to efficient reactivation of HHV-6. .
- HHV-6 is known to latently infect glial cells in the brain, and when HHV-6 in the intermediate stage of latent infection or in a highly active latent infection state expresses SITH-1, glial cells It is thought that the calcium concentration inside increases. An increase in intracellular calcium concentration in brain cells is considered to be greatly related to mental disorders such as mood disorders (RIKEN Annual Report 2003).
- SITH-1 protein retains the activity of binding to CAML, which is a host protein, and has a function of increasing intracellular calcium concentration.
- mental disorders can be induced by expressing the SITH-1 protein in glial cells in the brain where the protein is most strongly expressed. Therefore, the SITH-1 protein is expressed during the latent infection of herpes virus or at the early stage of reactivation, and is considered to have a function of causing psychiatric disorders in the host.
- An antibody against SITH-1 can be obtained as a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody by a known method using SITH-1 protein or a variant thereof, or a partial peptide thereof as an antigen.

SITH-1に対する抗体は、SITH-1タンパク質又はその変異体、あるいはそれらの部分ペプチドを抗原として、公知の方法によりポリクローナル抗体又はモノクローナル抗体として得られる。公知の方法としては、例えば、文献(Harlowらの「Antibodies : A laboratory manual(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York(1988))」、岩崎らの「単クローン抗体 ハイブリドーマとELISA、講談社(1991)」)に記載の方法が挙げられる。このようにして得られる抗体は、SITH-1タンパク質の検出・測定などに利用できる。

本発明においては、ビオチン結合性タンパク質を結合させた担体と、ビオチン化タンパク質を準備し、両者を接触させることにより、アビジン-ビオチン結合を介して担体にタンパク質を結合させることができる。
なお、このように細胞破砕粗抽出液を接触させることにより、ビオチン化タンパク質を結合させる場合、事実上、精製と固定化を同時に行ったことになる。従って、この場合、別途の精製作業は不要である。

一般に、担体を利用した検出方法において、バックグラウンドシグナルの原因となる非特異結合を低減させるため、細菌破砕抽出液を検出用試薬に含有させる方法(特開昭59-99257)、被検物質に特異的に結合する組換えタンパク質産生に使用したベクターと同種でありかつ当該タンパク質をコードする遺伝子を含まないベクターが導入された宿主細胞の培養成分を試料に添加する方法(特開平8-43392)、被検物質に特異的に結合する組換えタンパク質を産生した細胞と同種であり、かつ当該タンパク質を含まない細胞からの水抽出液を加熱処理した後、その水溶性画分を試料に添加する方法(特開2004-301646)などが知られている。
本発明の方法において、生物学的試料にビオチン結合性タンパク質を添加することにより、最終的にバックグラウンドシグナルを抑制することができる。
担体への生物学的試料、及び、細胞破砕抽出液の添加は任意の方法で行うことができる。ただし、生物学的試料が担体と接触するよりも同時、あるいはそれよりも前に、生物学的試料が細胞破砕抽出液と接触しなければならない。すなわち、生物学的試料と細胞破砕抽出液が十分に接触すればよく、細胞破砕抽出液由来の成分は必ずしも最終的に生物学的試料とともに担体に添加される必要はない。例えば、細胞破砕抽出液成分を結合した担体を作成し、そこへ生物学的試料を処理したものを使用してもよい。具体的には、生物学的試料を、細胞破砕抽出液成分カラムに通す、などの態様が挙げられる。
本発明の検出方法は、工程4)において、ビオチン化タンパク質と特異的に結合した披検物質を検出する。
また、好ましくは、試料が由来する生物(例えば、SITH-1の場合はヒト)が抗体を有しない任意のタンパク質(制限されるものではないが、上記生物が哺乳類の場合は、例えばGFP(緑色蛍光タンパク質)などを挙げることができる)を固相化した区の測定値を差し引くことで、より正確に求めることが出来る。固定化の方法としては、特に限定はされないが、当該タンパク質をビオチン化し、ビオチン結合性タンパク質が固定化された担体に、ビオチン-ビオチン結合性タンパク質間の結合により固定化することが好ましい。
以上のような算出方法は、生物学的試料の性質や使用する抗体の特徴などを踏まえ、当業者が適切に設計、選択することができる。

BioEase-SITH1/pET104.1を導入した大腸菌BL21(DE3)、又は対照としてpTrc99Aのみを導入した大腸菌BL21を、抗生物質アンピシリン(最終濃度100μg/ml)を含むLB培地50mlに接種し、OD600における吸光度が0.5に達するまで30℃で振とう培養した。その後、1mM IPTGを添加し、さらに30℃で5時間振とう培養した。培養液50mlから遠心にて菌体を回収した。菌体は0.1M HEPES/KOH(pH7.4)3ml中に懸濁後、超音波により破砕した。破砕液を遠心(15,000rpm)し、その上清を大腸菌粗抽出液とした。
精製TM2をNew ELISA plateキット(住友ベークライト)を用いてマイクロプレートに固定化した。固定化方法はキット添付の説明書に従った。
ウサギ抗SITH-1抗体(抗血清)の血清中抗体価は、典型的なうつ病(気分障害)患者の血清中抗SITH-1抗体価に比べ、およそ50倍程度高いと推定される。従って市販(健常者)ヒト血清に体積比で1/50量のウサギ抗SITH-1抗体(抗血清)を混ぜると、典型的なうつ病患者血清の擬似検体となると考えられる。よって、上記の抗体希釈率は、うつ病患者血清をおよそ10倍から80倍希釈して用いる場合と同程度とみなすことができる。
さらに、血清の希釈に用いた大腸菌粗抽出液中におけるTM2の効果を確認するために、PBS若しくは上記pTrc99A導入大腸菌粗抽出液に、最終濃度50μg/mlとなるように、精製TM2を加えた溶液を調製し、これを用いてヒト血清を100倍希釈した溶液に、上記と同様、ウサギ抗SITH-1抗体を体積比で1/500、1/1000、1/2000、1/4000、1/8000となるように段階希釈して加え、BioEaseタグ融合SITH-1を固定化したプレートに100μlずつ添加し、1時間室温で反応させた。また対照として、何も結合させていないTM2固定化プレートに上記ブロッキング操作を行った後、上記と同様にPBS溶液や、pTrc99A導入あるいはTM2/pTrc99A導入大腸菌粗抽出液(1mg総可溶性タンパク質/ml)、さらに精製TM2を加えたPBSや、精製TM2を加えたpTrc99A導入大腸菌粗抽出液で、100倍希釈したヒト血清に、段階的に希釈したウサギ抗SITH-1抗体を加えたものを100μlずつ添加し、室温で1時間反応させた。
S/N比=抗SITH-1抗体を各濃度で加えた区の抗SITH-1抗体検出量/抗SITH-1抗体を加えない区の抗SITH-1抗体検出量
