Problems solved by technology

However, in this literature, the expression vector PDEF38 did not test that the exogenous gene would also amplify with the increase of MTX concentration. We constructed the vector containing the upstream and downstream regulatory sequences of EF1alpha according to the literature. The expression of the source gene has not increased, and it is likely that its 4Kb regulatory sequence contains a sequence similar to an insulator, and the gene that maintains its expression box is not affected by the surrounding environment, resulting in an increase in the concentration of MTX. Only the DHFR gene can be amplified and its downstream sequence, while its upstream EF1alpha regulatory sequence and exogenous gene are not amplified
Orlova and Kovnir et al. (BMC Biotechnology 2014, 14:56) reported using the upstream 4.1Kb and 4.2Kb downstream sequences of the EF1alpha gene to connect the target exogenous gene with the DHFR gene through the IRES between the regulatory sequences to form a dicistronic Expression vector, when using EGFP as the target gene, the expression level of EGFP increased by 8 times and 4.5 times respectively through a round of amplification during adherent culture and suspension culture, indicating that this bicistronic expression vector can Obtaining highly active promoter characteristics can be amplified, but the literature does not verify whether the expression of other target genes can obtain such good results
Some literature (Mcgrew JT. Vectors and methods for recombinant protein expression, Uspatent No: 6632637B1.) reported that two genes connected by IRES form a large mRNA, which may reduce the half-life of mRNA; it is also possible to form an RNA that is not conducive to protein translation. level structure; resulting in decreased expression of the gene of interest

[0061] Example 2 Expression of exogenous protein using the combination carrier CHMARCHEF1506 / DHFR of the present invention

[0062] Example 1 shows that the carrier CHMARCHEF1506DHFR expresses good fluorescence intensity of EGFP, indicating that the gene 5' and 3' end regulatory sequences of CHO endogenous peptide elongation factor 1 and the chicken lysozyme MAR sequence are used to express foreign genes in CHO cells The effect is better, and the exogenous gene aldalimumab is further used to verify the effect of this vector.

[0063] On CHMARCHEF53 / DHFR through the NheI and XhoI restriction sites, the aldalimumab heavy chain gene (the sequence of the aldalimumab heavy chain gene is shown in SEQ ID NO.14) was constructed into the vector CHMARCHEFaldalimumabHC / DHFR ( Figure 5); the aldalimumab light chain gene (the sequence of the aldalimumab light chain gene is shown in SEQ ID NO.15) is also connected into the vector CHMARCHEF1506 / EGFP through the same digestion site through t...

[0068] The five strains of cells that were highly expressed in the shake flask of Example 2 were obtained by 3x10 5 / ml cell density inoculation, 3-4 days the cells grow to 2 million / ml, and then press 3x10 5 / ml density and have been subcultured in this way for 50-60 days in shake flasks. The results showed that the expression of aldalimumab in the obtained high-expression cell lines did not change significantly after subculture for about 60 days, and the final subculture cells were cultured in serum-free medium supplemented with glucose for 14 days, and the five cell lines expressed The amounts are about 1-1.3 g / L, indicating that the high-expression vector constructed in this way can achieve stable and high-yield expression of foreign proteins in CHO cells.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a gene fragment, a recombinant vector and an application thereof for improving the expression level of exogenous genes in mammalian cells. Background technique [0002] Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) are the most commonly used mammalian cells in biopharmaceuticals. They are one of the best expression systems for exogenous eukaryotic genes. They are widely used in biopharmaceuticals. They are currently on the market and undergoing clinical research. About 60-70% of engineering drugs are products expressed by mammalian cells, and the products expressed by CHO cells account for the vast majority of them. Compared with the prokaryotic expression system, it has the following advantages: foreign proteins are easily synthesized in CHO cells and secreted into the medium; the folding and modification, physical and chemical properties, and biological properties of recombin...
