Problems solved by technology

Ramos cells only express a fully recombined heavy chain antibody gene, starting from this single source of VDJ recombination, the types of antigens that can be targeted will also be greatly limited
In addition, antibody function is also closely related to the subtype of antibody constant region, so how to apply Ramos cells to the screening of IgG antibody subtypes is also a blank
[0006] On the other hand, since the targeted mutation efficiency of antibody genes in Ramos cells is about 100 times lower than the natural mechanism of B cells in the infection process, the efficiency of only using the cells themselves for evolution is low and cannot meet the needs of pharmaceutical research and development
In fact, although B cells can evolve high-affinity antibodies against unknown antigens within 7-14 days in vivo, it takes 3-4 months for unmodified Ramos cells to obtain similar products in vitro

Embodiment 1

[0141] Example 1, Construction of a Ramos Cell-Based Diversified Recombinant Antibody Heavy Chain Cell Bank

[0142] Antibody diversity consists of a combination of antibody gene recombination in pre-B cells and somatic mutation in mature B cells. Millions of years of evolution have built up a basic antibody repertoire in the genome that can respond to different antigens, and these basic antibody repertoires can further generate high-affinity antibodies through somatic mutation. Although the natural Ramos cell antibody heavy chain genes are only 4-34, genetic recombination technology can bring any other genome-encompassed heavy chain antibody genes into Ramos cells. The following is an in situ knock-in experiment using the 1-69 gene as an example. Similar methods can be used to establish Ramos cells starting with any genomic antibody sequence as the initial starting point for the subsequent antibody evolution screening process. There are various gene in situ knock-in methods ...

Embodiment 2

[0155] Example 2. Spontaneous somatic mutation of natural Ramos cell antibody heavy chain gene to generate antigen-specific antibody (specific experimental method reagent description is similar to (Nature Biotechnology 20, 1129-1134 (2002)):

[0156] In this example, the streptavidin model antigen is used as an example, and the antibody gene with high affinity for the model antigen was successfully evolved from the antibody gene with no affinity for the model antigen initially through a series of point mutations by Ramos cells, indicating that the Cell lines have the cellular and molecular biological basis for the in vitro evolution of human antibodies.

[0157] experiment procedure:

[0158] 1. Take 100,000 Ramos cells for expansion, inoculate them into 6-well plates, T-25, and finally culture in T-175 culture flasks;

[0159] 2. When the cell concentration reaches 1.5 million per ml, collect all about 50-100 ml of the culture system;

[0160] 3. Contact and label 75 millio...

Embodiment 3

[0167] Example 3, using the technical solution disclosed in US20180179516A1 to improve the evolution speed of Ramos cell antibody gene diversity, the production speed and mutation rate of antigen-specific antibodies

[0168] Exogenous genes or shRNAs were delivered into Ramos cells by lentivirus-mediated transduction using electroporation. For the construction of the foreign gene, the pCDH vector was used, and the gene was cloned into the pCDH vector by inserting the PCR product of the foreign gene into multiple cloning sites in the vector. The shRNA construct of human Spt5 is as in (A source of the single-stranded DNA substrate for activation-induced deaminase during somatichypermutation. Wang X, Fan M, Kalis S, Wei L, Scharff M D. Nat Commun. 2014 Jun. 13; 5: 4137.) described in. For the exogenous expression of Tat family members and their variants, lentiviral particles were used to introduce gene fragments encoding the corresponding proteins into Ramos reporter cells. eGF...

Abstract

The invention provides a cell bank of diverse antibody producing cells. An antibody gene of the antibody producing cells in the cell bank comprises coding sequences of various antibody heavy chain variable regions. Wherein the antibody heavy chain variable region comprises a heavy chain V section, a heavy chain D section or a heavy chain J section or any combination of the heavy chain V section, the heavy chain D section or the heavy chain J section of antibody heavy chain variable region genes from different donor cells. The invention also provides a method for expanding the diversity of a cell bank of antibody-producing cells, a method for preparing a cell bank of diverse antibody-producing cells, and a method for evolving and screening cells for producing antibodies with antigen-specific activity in vitro.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of spontaneous evolution of antibodies in vitro, in particular to a cell bank of diverse antibody-producing cells that can evolve in vitro and uses thereof. Background technique [0002] The acquired immune system is an important defense mechanism in the body to control pathogens. Among them, antibodies are particularly important because they can be optimized for each pathogen in the body and find the most protective molecules. When viruses or other microorganisms are infected, after millions of years of evolution, the human body has developed a set of efficient molecular evolution for B cells in lymphoid organs, which can develop specific antibodies against the source of infection within a few days, helping individuals ward off disease. In the past 30 years, the medicinal potential of antibodies has been greatly developed, which has gone far beyond simple anti-infection immunity. Nearly half of the top 20 ...
