The eTEV peptide purified by reverse layer HPLC was bound to the carrier protein keyhole hemocyanin (KLH) via the C-terminal Cys residue, and this was used as an immunogen.
- KLH carrier protein keyhole hemocyanin
- the eTEV peptide-KLH complex was immunized by intradermal administration (200 ⁇ L / mouse for 100 ⁇ L of one leg) with the adjuvant on the back of both feet of rats (SD, female, 8 weeks old).
- the antibody titer was measured by ELISA 2 weeks after immunization, a high antibody titer was obtained.

- Example 2 Preparation of tag sequence fusion protein
- (2-1) Preparation of tag sequence fusion protein using E. coli expression construct
- a tag sequence fusion protein to which the sequence (including the eTEV sequence) was added was prepared.
- the insert was prepared by extension PCR and inserted into the NdeI-BamHI site of the expression vector pET11c (Novagen).
- the construct of the Ala mutant was prepared using the QuickChange Mutagenesis kit (Stratagen).
- the resulting construct was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) strain, and expression was induced according to a conventional method.
- the fusion protein was purified from E. coli lysate by anion exchange chromatography (TEV-Fn) or Ni-NTA agarose chromatography (His-eTEV-Fn, etc.).
- Example 3 Characterization of monoclonal antibody 2H5
- 3-1) Analysis of epitope ELISA using various eTEV-Fn fusion proteins prepared in (2-1) above, wherein the minimum peptide sequence recognized by monoclonal antibody 2H5 (hereinafter referred to as “2H5 antibody”) is used. Investigated by law. The protocol is as follows. (1) 50 ⁇ L of His-eTEV-Fn fusion protein (wild type or each Ala mutant) solution diluted to 10 ⁇ g / mL was added to a 96-well plate and allowed to stand (4 ° C., 16 hours).
- the 2H5 antibody was raised against an 11-residue synthetic peptide (RENLYFQGKDC (SEQ ID NO: 8)) (see Example 1), but the C-terminal Cys residue is used for the reaction with KLH. Therefore, in principle, residues important for antigen recognition should be inside 10 residues excluding the C-terminal Cys residue.
- the binding to the initially prepared fusion protein TEV-Fn (Met and Gly are present at both ends of the above 10 residues, see FIG. 3) was very strong, the amino acids at both ends (Met0 and Gly11) ) Ala mutant was also prepared and added to the analysis. The results are shown in FIG. As can be seen from FIG.
- the Ala variants were divided into three groups in reactivity with the 2H5 antibody.
- the first group was one whose reactivity was no different from wild type eTEV peptide (M0, E2, N3, F6 and Q7).
- the second group had reactivity (R1 and G11) that was more than 100 times lower than the wild type although it was reactive.
- the third group had almost completely lost reactivity (L4, Y5, G8, K9 and D10).
- the substrate protein before cleavage showed a mobility of molecular weight of 24 kDa, and the cleavage was evaluated based on shifting to a position of 20 kDa when cleaved with TEV protease.
- the fourth, fifth and seventh amino acids are important to be a substrate for TEV protease, and other residues can be Ala. It was. This result was almost consistent with the recognition specificity already reported by Dougherty et al. (EMBO J., 7, 1281-1287, 1988). New findings not reported by Dougherty et al. Were obtained, such as the absence of major changes and the fact that the fourth Leu residue does not allow small amino acid side chains such as Ala.
- Gln7 is important for recognition by TEV protease but not for recognition by 2H5 antibody, which is a dual recognition mode of protease and antibody by changing the seventh residue. It shows that it is possible to change the properties of peptides from single to single recognition mode.
- Example 4 Pull-down of tag sequence fusion protein using 2H5 antibody-immobilized Sepharose
- the target protein In order to use the eTEV tag for purification of the recombinant protein, the target protein must be able to be specifically captured from a mixture such as a culture supernatant of an expression cell or a lysate of Escherichia coli. In order to investigate this with various constructs, pull-down experiments were performed.
- Various eTEV-tagged constructs are transiently expressed in HEK293T cells, and 20 ⁇ L of 2H5 antibody is immobilized on 1 mL of the culture supernatant (hereinafter referred to as “2H5 Sepharose”) or 2H5 antibody is not immobilized Sepharose (control) was added and reacted at 4 ° C. for 1 hour.
- 2H5 Sepharose was precipitated by centrifugation, washed twice with TBS, eluted with SDS sample buffer, and directly analyzed by SDS gel electrophoresis.
- gels with different acrylamide concentrations were used depending on the molecular weight of the target protein.
- eTEV-NP1 a construct comprising an eTEV tag at the N-terminus and comprising the a1a2 domain (251 residues) of mouse neuropilin

- sema3A-eTEV A construct having an eTEV tag on the C-terminal side of mouse semaphorin 3A (sema3A)
- eTEV-NP1 The result of eTEV-NP1 is shown in FIG. 8, (2) The result of eTEV-EGFP is shown in FIG. 9, (3) The result of hGH-eTEV-sema6C is shown in FIG. 10, and (4) The result of sema3A-eTEV is shown.
- M represents a molecular weight marker
- 2H5 represents a sample to which 2H5 Sepharose was added
- Cont represents a sample to which a control was added.
- the arrow represents the target protein band.
- FIGS. 8 to 11 it was found that the tagged protein specifically bound to 2H5 Sepharose in all the constructs examined.
- the eTEV tag can interfere with pull-down regardless of where the eTEV tag is added at the N-terminus (eTEV-NP1, eTEV-EGFP), middle (hGH-eTEV-sema6C), or C-terminus (sema3A-eTEV). There is no. This suggests that when 2H5 recognizes the eTEV sequence, the structure before and after it is hardly affected.
- Example 5 Purification of eTEV tag fusion protein with 2H5 Sepharose
- eTEV-GFP UV GFP UV eTEV tag fusion protein
- eTEV-GFP UV GFP UV eTEV tag fusion protein
- Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) strain was transformed with the above expression vector, and expression was induced according to a conventional method. 1 mL of this soluble fraction was passed through 2H5 Sepharose (0.5 mL bed volume) at 4 ° C. and allowed to bind. Unbound protein was washed with TBS and eluted with TBS containing 100 ⁇ g / mL eTEV peptide. The size per fraction was 0.5 mL. Each sample of the soluble fraction of the E. coli disrupted product and the washed and eluted fractions was subjected to SDS gel electrophoresis. The results are shown in FIG. In FIG. 13, ori indicates the soluble fraction of the E. coli crushed material.
- Lanes 1 to 5 show samples of washing fractions, and 6 to 10 show samples of elution fractions.
- GFP UV was confirmed as a band around 30 kDa in the soluble fraction of the E. coli crushed material (arrow in FIG. 13).
- GFP UV could be completely purified in one step by affinity chromatography with 2H5 Sepharose.

It was about 50% of (lane 1). The elution was very slight with 2M sodium iodide containing iodide ion which is a chaotropic ion (lane 4). In acidic conditions at pH 3.0, nearly 100% elution was observed (lane 5). Under these conditions, antibody dissociation from 2H5 Sepharose was observed (the band indicated by * in FIG. 15). It turns out that there is a problem in terms of repeated use.

ヒトフィブロネクチンの第9-第10Fn3ドメイン部分の185残基を発現するコンストラクトを用い、そのN末端に、図3に示す種々のTEV由来の配列(eTEV配列を含む)を付加したタグ配列融合タンパク質を作製した。インサートはextension PCRで作製し、発現ベクターpET11c(Novagen)のNdeI-BamHIサイトに挿入した。また、Ala変異体のコンストラクトはQuickChange Mutagenesis kit(Stratagen)を用いて作製した。得られたコンストラクトを大腸菌BL21(DE3)株に形質転換し、定法に従って発現誘導を行った。融合蛋白質は大腸菌可溶化物から陰イオン交換クロマトグラフィー(TEV-Fn)もしくはNi-NTAアガロースクロマトグラフィー(His-eTEV-Fnなど)によって精製した。
ほ乳類細胞での発現用ベクターは、pCDNA3.1(Invitrogen)、あるいはヒト成長因子(hGH)融合発現ベクター(pSGHV0、D.Leahy教授より供与)を用いた。各種標的タンパク質のDNA断片とeTEV配列をコードする塩基配列とをextension PCRで融合し、上記ベクターのクローニングサイトへ挿入した。作製したプラスミドをヒト線維芽細胞株HEK293Tにトランスフェクションし、得られた培養上清をプルダウン実験等に供した。
(3-1)エピトープの解析
モノクローナル抗体2H5(以下「2H5抗体」という)によって認識される必要最小のペプチド配列を、上記(2-1)で作製した各種のeTEV-Fn融合タンパク質を用いたELISA法で調べた。プロトコールは以下のとおりである。
(1) 10μg/mLに希釈したHis-eTEV-Fn融合タンパク質(野生型または各Ala変異体)溶液50μLを96wellプレートに加えて静置(4℃、16時間)した。
(2) アスピレーターで吸引し、5% スキムミルクin Tris-buffered saline(TBS、20mM Tris-HCl、150mM NaCl pH7.5)を200μL/well加えて室温で1時間静置した。
(3) 0.01-30μg/mLの2H5抗体を50μL加えて室温で1時間静置した。
(4) 200μL/wellのTBSで3回洗浄した。
(5) ペルオキシダーゼ標識抗ラットIgG(1/1000希釈)を50μL加えて室温で30分間静置した。
(6) 200μL/wellのTBSで4回洗浄した。
(7) ペルオキシダーゼ発色基質(ABTS)を100μL/wellで加え、室温で5~10分静置後、各well中の溶液の405nmの吸光度を測定した。
eTEVペプチドはTEVプロテアーゼによって認識、切断される。2H5抗体のエピトープ決定のために作成した一連のAla変異体を用いて、TEVプロテアーゼによる認識に必須なアミノ酸残基の同定を行った。具体的には、His-eTEV-Fn融合タンパク質(野生型またはAla変異体)を400μg/mLの濃度でTBSに溶解し、そこに1/10量のTEVプロテアーゼを添加し、20℃で16時間反応させた。SDSを加えて反応を停止し、反応液の全量を15%のSDSポリアクリルアミドゲル電気泳動に供し、クマシーブリリアントブルーで染色した。切断前の基質タンパク質は分子量24kDaの移動度を示し、TEVプロテアーゼで切断されると20kDaの位置へとシフトすることに基づき、切断を評価した。
2H5抗体のeTEVペプチドに対する結合親和性を調べるため、ビアコアによる表面プラズモン共鳴解析を行った。2H5抗体をCM5センサーチップ上に固定化し、31、62、125、250、500、1000μMの各濃度のeTEV-Fn融合タンパク質を流してそのセンサーグラムを記録した(図6参照)。図6に示された濃度依存性からBIAevaluation 3.0プログラムを用いて親和性を測定したところ、40nMという見かけ上の解離平衡定数が得られ、2H5抗体のeTEVペプチドへの親和性は比較的高いことがわかった。
eTEV-Fn融合タンパク質を0.63-10ng/レーンでSDS電気泳動に供し、PDVF膜に転写後、1μg/mLの2H5抗体と反応させ、続いてペルオキシダーゼ標識抗ラットIgGとケミルミネッセンス基質によって検出した。比較のために、FLAGペプチド融合タンパク質を同じ量電気泳動に供して、抗FLAG抗体M2(シグマ・アルドリッチ社)で検出した。結果を図7に示した。図7から明らかなように、2H5抗体は約2ng(0.08pmol)以上のeTEVペプチド融合タンパク質をウェスタンブロッティングで検出でき、その感度は市販のFLAG/M2システムに匹敵することがわかった。
eTEVタグを組み換えタンパク質の精製に使うためには、発現細胞の培養上清や、大腸菌の可溶化物といった混合物から目的タンパク質を特異的に捕捉できなければならない。これを様々なコンストラクトで調べるために、プルダウン実験を行った。
様々なeTEVタグ付加コンストラクトをHEK293T細胞に一過性に発現させ、その培養上清1mLに対して20μLの2H5抗体を固定化したセファロース(以下「2H5セファロース」という)または2H5抗体を固定化していないセファロース(対照)を加えて4℃、1時間反応させた。遠心により2H5セファロースを沈降させ、TBSにて2回洗浄後、SDSサンプルバッファーで溶出し、そのままSDSゲル電気泳動で分析した。ただし、目的タンパク質の分子量に応じて異なるアクリルアミド濃度のゲルを使用した。泳動したゲルはクマシーブリリアントブルーもしくは銀染色によってタンパク質を可視化した。使用したeTEVタグ付加コンストラクトは以下の通りである。
(1)eTEV-NP1:eTEVタグをN末端に持ち、マウスのニューロピリン1のa1a2ドメイン(251残基)からなるコンストラクト
(2)eTEV-EGFP:eTEVタグをN末端に持ち、enhanced GFP(241残基)からなるコンストラクト
(3)hGH-eTEV-sema6C:N末端にヒト成長ホルモン(hGH)、中央にeTEVタグ、C末端側にラットセマフォリン6C(sema6C)をもつコンストラクト
(4)sema3A-eTEV:マウスセマフォリン3A(sema3A)のC末端側にeTEVタグを持つコンストラクト
(5-1)精製効率の検討
2H5セファロースを用いて、緑色蛍光タンパク質の一種であるGFPUVのeTEVタグ融合タンパク質(以下「eTEV-GFPUV」ともいう)の一段階精製を行った。GFPUVはUVランプなどで蛍光観察しやすいように励起波長を短波長側にシフトさせたGFPの変異体である。N末端にP4×3タグ、続いてeTEV配列、その後に238アミノ酸からなるGFPUV、さらにヒスチジンタグを付加した融合タンパク質(図12参照、配列番号9)をコードする融合遺伝子のコンストラクトを大腸菌用発現ベクターpET11bに組み込んだ。
結果を図13に示した。図13中oriは大腸菌破砕物の可溶性画分を示す。レーン1~5は洗浄フラクションのサンプル、6~10は溶出フラクションのサンプルを示す。図13からわかるように、GFPUVは大腸菌破砕物の可溶性画分に30kDa付近のバンドとして確認された(図13の矢印)。そして、2H5セファロースによるアフィニティクロマトグラフィーによって、GFPUVは1段階で完全に精製することが可能であった。各フラクションの蛍光(Ex490nm/Em520nm)測定によって収率を計算すると、発現していたGFPUVの約93%が溶出画分に回収されていたことが明らかとなった。
2H5セファロースからeTEV-GFPUVを溶出する際の緩衝液の条件について検討した。まず、競合的な溶出を行うためのペプチドの濃度条件を検討した。上記(5-1)と同様に、eTEV-GFPUV発現大腸菌の可溶性画分を2H5セファロースに通し、未結合のタンパク質をTBSで洗浄後、0~1000μg/mLの各濃度eTEVペプチドを含むTBSで溶出した。
結果を図14に示した。図14中、Mは分子量マーカーを、oriは大腸菌破砕物の可溶性画分を示す。図14から明らかなように、eTEVペプチド30μg/mLという低濃度で2H5セファロースからeTEV-GFPUVを完全に溶離することができた。通常、抗ペプチド抗体レジンからの競合的な溶出には100~500μg/mLのペプチド溶液が用いられることから考えると、2H5抗体を用いたeTEVタグタンパク質の精製システムは極めて安価に構築できることが示唆された。
レーン1:0.1mg/mLのeTEVペプチドを含むTBS
レーン2:40%プロピレングリコール+2M NaCl
レーン3:40%プロピレングリコール+2M NaI
レーン4:2M NaI
レーン5:0.1M Gly-HCl, pH3.0
図15から明らかなように、40%プロピレングリコール+2M NaClという条件で2H5セファロースからeTEV-GFPUVの溶出が見られ(レーン2)、その効率は0.1mg/mLのeTEVペプチドを含むTBSによる溶出(レーン1)の50%程度であった。カオトロピックイオンであるヨウ化物イオンを含む2Mのヨウ化ナトリウムでは溶出は非常にわずかであった(レーン4)。pH3.0の酸性条件では100%近い溶出が見られたが(レーン5)、この条件では2H5セファロースからの抗体の解離が見られ(図15中の※印で示したバンド)、抗体カラムの繰り返し使用という点で問題があることがわかった。
以上の結果から、精製の際に2H5セファロースからの目的のeTEVタグ融合タンパク質を溶出するためには30μg/mL以上のeTEVペプチド溶液を用い、レジンの再生のためには40%プロピレングリコールと2M NaClを含む中性緩衝液を用いればよいことがわかった。完全なレジンの再生は、上の緩衝液をカラムの100倍量程度流すことで得られることを確認した。
eTEVタグを他のペプチドタグとつなげて一続きの「ダブルタグ」とすることで、組み換えタンパク質の精製やサンドイッチELISAなどが簡易化できる。そこで、このことを確認するために、図16に示したターゲットタグとeTEVタグとを結合した33アミノ酸のタグ配列(配列番号10、以下「Wタグ」という)をデザインし、これを融合したタンパク質の発現を行った。WタグはGFPUVもしくはFnのN末端に融合し、これらを大腸菌にて発現・精製したのち、以下の要領でサンドイッチELISAを行った。
すなわち、抗ターゲットタグ抗体であるP20.1抗体(マウスIgG)10μg/mLをマイクロタイタープレートに固相化し、ブロッキング後、精製したWタグ融合GFPUV(W-GFPUV)あるいはWタグ融合Fn(W-Fn)を0.003~3μg/mLの濃度に希釈してウェルに加え、4℃で一晩キャプチャーした。洗浄後、ビオチン化2H5抗体(5μg/mL)を室温で30分反応させ、3回洗浄後にペルオキシダーゼ標識ストレプトアビジン(Zymed)を加えてさらに室温で15分静置し、ペルオキシダーゼ基質(ABTS)を加えて405nmの吸光度を測定した。
上記のWタグ融合タンパク質においては、P20.1抗体あるいは2H5抗体を用いたアフィニティー精製、およびTEVプロテアーゼによる切断という点についてもシングルタグの時と同様に可能であることが確認でき、Wタグが望み通りの一人二役を果たすことができると結論した。
Wタグ融合タンパク質の発現ベクターを構築し、HEK392T細胞またはHEK293SGnT1-細胞にトランスフェクションして、目的タンパク質高発現株のスクリーニングを行った。発現ベクターには、pCD-NW3を使用した(図18参照)。培地には、1mg/mLのG418を添加した10%牛胎児血清含有ダルベッコMEM培地を使用した。スクリーニングは、実施例6と同様のサンドイッチELISAを用いて行った。具体的には、P20.1抗体10μg/mLをマイクロタイタープレートに固相化し、ブロッキング後、培養上清をウェルに加え、4℃で一晩キャプチャーした。洗浄後、ビオチン化2H5抗体(5μg/mL)を室温で30分反応させ、3回洗浄後にペルオキシダーゼ標識ストレプトアビジン(Zymed)を加えてさらに室温で15分静置し、ペルオキシダーゼ基質(ABTS)を加えて405nmの吸光度を測定した。
オータキシンのN末端にWタグが融合した発現ベクターを構築し、HEK293SGnT1-細胞にトランスフェクションした。20日間培養してG418耐性細胞を選択し、得られたクローンを一次スクリーニングに供した。一次スクリーニングの結果を図19(a)に示した。発現量の高い3クローン(5G3、5H11、3C11)を選択し、二次スクリーニングに供した。二次スクリーニングでは、各クローンにつき、10倍希釈した培養上清、3倍希釈した培養上清および希釈していない培養上清を試料とした。二次スクリーニングの結果を図19(b)に示した。二次スクリーニングの結果から、クローン5G3をオータキシン高発現株として選択した。
CRISPaのN末端にWタグが融合した発現ベクターを構築し、HEK392T細胞にトランスフェクションした。12日間培養してG418耐性細胞を選択し、得られたクローンをスクリーニングに供した。スクリーニングの結果を図20に示した。スクリーニングの結果から、クローン#17をCRISPa高発現株として選択した。
セマフォリン3AのN末端にWタグが融合した発現ベクターを構築し、HEK392T細胞にトランスフェクションした。14日間培養してG418耐性細胞を選択し、得られたクローンを一次スクリーニングに供した。一次スクリーニングの結果を図21(a)に示した。発現量の高い3クローン(1A2、1B3、2F3)を選択し、二次スクリーニングに供した。二次スクリーニングでは、各クローンにつき、10倍希釈した培養上清、3倍希釈した培養上清および希釈していない培養上清を試料とした。二次スクリーニングの結果を図21(b)に示した。二次スクリーニングの結果から、クローン2F3をセマフォリン3A高発現株として選択した。
