Embodiment 1

[0207] Example 1: Fusion protein construction

[0208] The IMP was introduced into the vaccinia virus EEV by using the EEV specific proteins F13L, A56R and B5R as follows. In general, the extracellular domains of HER2, CD100 (axon guidance factor 4D) and FZD4 were introduced as fusions with single-transmembrane EEV-specific membrane proteins A56R and B5R, as schematically shown in Figure 1A. The mature FZD4-ECD-A56R fusion protein comprises amino acids 20-370 of SEQ ID NO:6, the mature HER2-ECD-A56R fusion protein comprises amino acids 20-855 of SEQ ID NO:7, and the mature CD100-ECD-A56R fusion protein comprises SEQ ID NO:7 Amino acids 20-935 of ID NO:8. Figure 1B and Figure 1C It is schematically shown how multi-transmembrane proteins such as GPCR and CD20 can be introduced into EEV as multi-transmembrane proteins in the form of fusions with the EEV membrane-associated protein F13L.

Embodiment 2

[0220] Example 2: Expression of CD20-F13L fusion protein on EEV

[0221] BHK cells were infected with IMV encoding CD20-F13L fusion protein (SEQ ID NO:4) or control Western Reserve (WR) virus at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 1 virus / cell for two days, and then EEV-containing cells were harvested by low-speed centrifugation. supernatant and remove debris. Protein G (110 μL) was pulled down with a magnet, and 1 mL of PBS + 20 μg of purified anti-CD20 antibody was added to the beads. The solution was incubated at room temperature for 30-60 minutes with gentle shaking to allow antibody coupling to the protein G beads. 10 μg of purified mIgG1 isotype control was added to the solution to ensure complete blocking, and the solution was then incubated for another 10-30 minutes at room temperature with gentle shaking. The beads were pulled down with a magnet, washed once with 1 mL of PBS, and resuspended in 110 μL of PBS.

Abstract

This disclosure provides compositions and methods for expressing and displaying isolated integral membrane proteins (IMPs) or fragments thereof in a native conformation for use in the screening, selecting, and identifying of antibodies or antibody-like molecules that bind to a target IMP of interest.

Description

[0001] Inventor: E·S·Smith (Ernest S.Smith) [0002] Mark Paris [0003] Maria G.M. Scrivens [0004] R. A. Kirk (Renee A. Kirk) [0005] A. A. Connelson (Angelica A. [0006] Moksa-Cornelison) Background technique [0007] Antibodies with established specificities are increasingly employed in a variety of therapeutic applications. There are many approaches to obtain useful antibodies for human therapeutic applications. These include chimeric and humanized antibodies, as well as fully human antibodies, selected from libraries, eg, phage display libraries, or from transgenic animals. Immunoglobulin libraries constructed in bacteriophage can be derived from antibody-producing cells of naive or specially immunized individuals and can, in principle, include novel and diverse pairs of human immunoglobulin heavy and light chains. Although this strategy is not subject to intrinsic library constraints, it requires that the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the expres...
