Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, after decades of refinement, CHO cell line productivity is unlikely to increase significantly, and with the introduction of therapies for broader and chronic conditions (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), the demand for monoclonal antibodies is expected to increase. will surge
Therefore, there are two problems with CHO cells: a long timeline for producing new antibodies, and insufficient capacity to meet future needs

Embodiment

[0118] In the present invention, secretion of two full-length antibodies at high titers (≥19 μg / mL) in Kluyveromyces marxe: Herceptin (trastuzumab) and MabThera (rituximab) has been achieved . High titers were achieved using codon optimization of the amino acid sequences of the heavy chain, light chain and secretion tag according to K. marx preferred codons. The DNA expression constructs were cloned as convergent split cassettes at the same locus under a strong constitutive native glycolytic promoter. The copy number of the cassette (2 / 3 copies seemed optimal) was variable. Using 4% glucose (from sugarcane source), cell recycle treatment significantly improved titers. In addition, a K. marikus production strain with three copy numbers of Herceptin was run in a 0.5L fermenter and high titers of full-length antibodies were obtained (estimated titer ≥ 30 μg / mL). Strains were constructed using CRISPR tools with deletion of the NHEJ pathway. The copy number of gene integration ...

Abstract

The invention provides methods for genetically engineering Kluyveromyces. The methods can be used to genetically engineer Kluyveromyces to produce and secrete full-length antibodies or antibody fragments. The invention also provides methods for production and secretion of antibodies.

Description

[0001] field of invention [0002] The methods and compositions provided herein relate generally to the fields of molecular biology and genetic engineering. Background technique [0003] Genetic engineering techniques for introducing targeted modifications into the genome of host cells can be used in a variety of fields. Fundamentally, determining how genotype affects phenotype depends on the ability to introduce targeted insertions or deletions that impair or abolish native gene function. In the field of synthetic biology, making genetically modified microorganisms capable of producing a compound or protein of interest requires the insertion of a custom DNA sequence into the host cell's chromosome; industrial-scale production often requires the introduction of multiple genes into the host cell genome. [0004] For certain host cells, especially for conventional yeast cells (eg, Saccharomyces cerevisiae), genetic tools are well developed for targeted genomic gene deletion and...
