Problems solved by technology

But the uricase derived from Aspergillus flavus is less than 40% homologous to the inferred human uricase (Lee C C, Wu X, Gibbs R A, Cook R G, Muzny D M, Caskey C T.Science.1988.239: 1288-1291.) , the human body is prone to produce anti-uricase antibodies, the efficacy of Aspergillus flavus uricase rapidly weakens, and at the same time cause severe allergic reactions, so it cannot be used for long-term treatment
If it is modified to restore its enzyme activity for degrading uric acid, the immunogenicity of the enzyme will be reduced. However, during the evolution of the human uricase gene, due to the lack of selection pressure, some missense mutations have accumulated. The inventors carried out Multiple amino acid mutations to restore uricase activity, all unsuccessful

[0046] Example 1 Recombinant expression of human dog chimeric uricase protein UHC in Escherichia coli

[0047] In this example, the first 240 amino acids at the N-terminal of the involved chimeric protein are the uricase sequence of dog origin, and the 241-304th amino acid sequence is the amino acid sequence of uricase of human origin. According to the above amino acid sequence and according to the codon preferred by Escherichia coli, Bao Biology (Dalian) Co., Ltd. was entrusted to carry out the whole gene synthesis. The nucleotide sequences are (Seq ID No: 10): CAT ATG GCC CAT TAT CAT AAT GAT TAT AAA AAA AAT GAT GAA GTT GAA TTT GTT CGT ACC GGT TAT GGTAAA GAT ATG GTT AAA GTT CTG CAT ATT CAG CGT GAT GGT AAA TAT CAT TCT ATT AAA GAA GTT GCC ACCTCT GTT CAG CTG ACC CTG TCT TCT AAA AAA GAT TAT GTT TAT GGT GAT AAT TCT GAT ATT ATT CCA ACCGAT ACC ATT AAA AAT ACC GTT CAT GTT CTG GCC AAA TTT AAA GGT ATT AAA TCT ATT GAA ACC TTT GCCATG AAT ATT TGT GAA CAT TTT CTG TCT TCT TTT AAT CAT GTT AT...

Abstract

The invention provides chimeric protein of mammal-derived uricase which contains part of humanized uricase amino acid sequences and has enzymatic activity and mutant protein thereof, a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence encoding the chimeric protein, a carrier containing the DNA sequence, a host cell containing the carrier, a method for preparing the chimeric protein and the mutant protein thereof by genetic engineering and a medicinal composition. The chimeric protein and the mutant protein reserve the activity of the mammal-derived uricase, can reduce immunogenicity suitable for human bodies and enhance or improve the physicochemical property of mammal source uricase protein simultaneously, and are suitable for treating hyperuricemia and gout caused by the hyperuricemia.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of DNA recombination technology and medicine. More specifically, the present invention relates to a chimeric protein of a mammalian uricase with enzymatic activity and a mutant protein thereof containing a part of the amino acid sequence of human uricase, and a DNA sequence encoding the chimeric protein and a mutant thereof, comprising the The carrier of the DNA sequence, the host cell containing the carrier, the method for preparing the protein by genetic engineering, and the application of the protein in the treatment of hyperuricemia and the ventilation caused by it. Background technique [0002] Gout is a disease caused by purine metabolism disorders. As early as the 5th century BC, the famous Greek doctor Hippocrates had recorded its symptoms (Emmerson B T.N Engl J Med.1996; 334; 445-451.) , its clinical feature is hyperuricemia, and tophi is formed due to urate deposition in the subcutaneous, joints, and kidne...
