Problems solved by technology

However, these imported protein A affinity chromatography media are usually expensive, accounting for about 85% of the total cost of chromatography media in the downstream purification process of antibody drugs, and there are various deficiencies that can be improved
For example, the matrix microspheres of MabSelect SuRe are highly cross-linked agarose, which has the advantages of excellent hydrophilicity and good biocompatibility, and is very suitable for the separation and purification of antibody biomacromolecules; but the disadvantages are: first, the structure It is soft and has a wid...

Embodiment 1

[0042] Example 1 Directional optimization method of alkali-resistant protein A variant

[0043] Aiming at the protein function optimization goals of improving alkali resistance and improving the binding ability with IgG, the present invention obtains the protein A variant with targeted optimization through bioinformatics and convolutional neural network.

[0044] The specific technical solution of the method may include the following steps (see figure 2 ):

[0045] Step 1: Take the E, D, C, B and A domains and Z domain sequences of protein A as the initial sequence for directional optimization, and obtain the crystal structure of the corresponding sequence from the RCSB-PDB database, where the A domain The structure was obtained by homology modeling method.

[0046] Step 2: Cross-align the initial sequences and perform structural overlay clustering analysis on amino acid residues.

[0047] Step 3: According to the results of sequence identity and amino acid residue structu...

[0109] Example 3 Conjugation of candidate protein A variants and microspheres

[0110] In this example, agarose microspheres with high particle size uniformity and good mechanical strength were used as scaffolds to couple candidate protein A variants (1#, 3# and 10#) with similar affinity to the Z domain.

[0111] The brief coupling procedure is as follows.

[0112] Step 1: Measure 5mL of epoxy-activated microspheres and wash twice with 10mL of 0.1M PB, pH 8.6 buffer;

[0113] Step 2: Add 3 mg of candidate protein A variant per ml of filler;

[0114] Step 3: React at 30℃±1℃ for 1 hour;

[0115]Step 4: Wash the gel with 20ml of water each time, wash twice in total, collect the washing liquid to measure the protein concentration (OD280), and calculate the protein A variant content on the coupling;

[0116] Step 5: Wash the gel with 20ml of water, and then wash it 5 times;

[0117] Step 6: Wash twice with 5ml 20% ethanol;

[0118] Step 7: 3mL of 20% ethanol, stored at 2-8°C....

Abstract

The invention discloses a protein A variant, and particularly relates to a protein A variant with high alkali resistance and high IgG binding affinity. The invention also discloses application of the protein A variant.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to protein A variants, especially protein A variants with high alkali resistance. The present invention also relates to the use of this protein A variant. Background technique [0002] Antibody drugs have developed rapidly in recent years. In 2020, half of the top 10 drugs by global sales are antibody drugs. The purification steps in the antibody drug production process usually employ the classical three-step or two-step chromatography. Staphylococcus aureus protein A is a bacterial protein discovered in the 1970s that can bind to the Fc end of multi-species antibodies. , A more widely used affinity ligand. The study found that the unique and specific adsorption ability of multiple regions on the protein A ligand to the Fc segment of the antibody can be used for the specific capture of the antibody. Most of the impurities in the cell fermentation broth can be removed in one step, up to more than 98%. purity. With the...
