Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for efficiently screening high-affinity Fab fragments using a cell-free display system. This method allows for the construction of large libraries of Fabs with high affinity for target substances. Compared to other methods, the Ymacs method of the present invention allows for the production of a larger number of Fabs with higher affinity for antigens. This method is simple and fast, and can be carried out in a short period.

Problems solved by technology

Although screening of antibodies using the display technology has already been carried out as described above, it has been considered that efficient screening of Fab having a large molecular weight and composed of two peptide chains is difficult with a cell-free display system such as ribosome display.

[Example 1] Preparation of Model Fab

[0270]As the framework of the Fab to be used in the cell-free Fab display system, the combination of VL k subgroup I and VH subgroup III, which is one of the major antibody subclasses in human, excellent in expression efficiency in E. coli (Kanappik et al., J Mol Biol. (2000) vol. 296, p. 57-86) and reported to be effective in a cell-free scFv display system (Shibui et al., Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. (2009) vol. 84, p. 725-732), was selected. As a model Fab having the above-described framework to be used for confirmation of the performance of the cell-free Fab display system, the human EGFR-2 (Her-2)-reactive Fab reported by Carter et al. (Carter et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. (1992) vol. 89, p. 4285-4289) was selected to provide Fab-HH.

[0271]As another model Fab, Fab-TT was provided by substituting the CDR 1-3 regions in the L chain and the H chain of Fab-HH by the sequence of the INFαR-reactive scFv discovered by the cell-free scFv display syst...

[Example 2] Evaluation of Activities, Specificities and L Chain-H Chain Interdependencies of Model Fabs

[0275]Each of Her-2 and INFαR (R&D systems) as an antigen protein for the model Fab was diluted with PBS to 1 μg / ml. The diluted antigen was placed on an ELISA plate, and immobilized on the plate by incubation at 4° C. overnight. After washing the well, the model Fab was added thereto to bind the model Fab to the antigen. After washing the well, a 1000-fold diluted HRP-labeled anti-FLAG antibody (Sigma) as a detection antibody was added to the well, to bind the detection antibody to the FLAG tag attached to the model Fab. After washing the well, a colorimetric substrate for HRP was added thereto. When an appropriate degree of coloring was achieved, a stop solution was added to the well, and the absorbance was measured at OD 405 nm. FIG. 11 shows the result of titration of the 4 types of model Fabs over a wide range of concentration using Her-2 as the antigen protein. It can be seen...

[Example 3] Construction of Vector for Bicistronic Fab-PRD

[0276]A sequence having a very similar amino acid sequence to that of the above-described Fab-HH and reported by Fellouse et al. (Fellouse et al., J. Mol. Biol. (2007) vol. 373, p. 924-940) to show even higher expression efficiency in E. coli was provided as Fab-SS. For the display of this sequence in a cell-free system, a DNA fragment for bicistronic Fab-PRD was artificially synthesized using codons optimized for E. coli. The synthesized fragment was incorporated into a general-purpose phagemid vector pBluescript SK(+) to construct pGAv2-SS. Subsequently, the CDR 1-3 regions in the L chain and the CDR 1-3 regions in the H chain of pGAv2-SS were replaced by the corresponding regions in pTrc Fab-HH, to construct pGAv2-HH. Similarly, using pGAv2-SS and pTrc Fab-TT, pGAv2-TT was constructed. Subsequently, by introducing a XhoI recognition site into the most downstream part of the GS linker downstream of the L chain of pGAv2-HH w...

Abstract

The polynucleotide construct of (1) or (2) below is used to perform ribosome display, CIS display and / or mRNA display in order to screen a Fab against an antigen of interest: (1) a polynucleotide construct which monocistronically comprises a ribosome-binding sequence, Fab first chain-coding sequence, linker peptide-coding sequence, Fab second chain-coding sequence and scaffold-coding sequence in this order, and further comprises at its 3′-end a structure necessary for maintaining a complex with the Fab encoded by itself; and (2) a polynucleotide construct which comprises a Fab first chain-expressing cistron and a Fab second chain-expressing cistron each containing a ribosome-binding sequence, a Fab first chain-coding sequence or Fab second chain-coding sequence, and a scaffold-coding sequence in this order, the first Fab-expressing cistron further comprising at its 3′-end a ribosome stall sequence, said Fab second chain-expressing cistron further comprising at its 3′-end a structure necessary for maintaining a complex with the Fab encoded by itself.
