Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein, its preparation method, and its application, belonging to the technical field of thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein preparation. Background Technology

[0002] The thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) is a G protein-coupled receptor located on the membrane of thyroid follicular cells. Under normal physiological conditions, TSHR regulates the growth, differentiation, and function of thyroid follicular cells by binding to thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) through the adenylate cyclase (AC-cAMP) pathway and the phospholipase C-diacylglycerol and phosphoinositol pathway. TSHR not only mediates the physiological functions of TSH but is also an important autoantigen. Its corresponding autoantibody, thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TSHRAb, TRAb), plays a crucial role in the development of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD). TRAb mediates the occurrence and development of AITD and is considered an important indicator for the detection of AITD patients.

[0003] Currently, there are two main types of methods for detecting TRAb: competitive assays and double-antigen sandwich assays. Competitive assays primarily utilize the patient's own TRAb to competitively bind to TSHR (transferase-stimulating hormone) with labeled recombinant human autostimulatory monoclonal M22 to quantify TRAb. This method offers higher sensitivity and better detection stability compared to the traditional method of TRAb competing with TSH for TSHR binding, and is currently the dominant TRAb detection method. Double-antigen sandwich assays use two or more TSHR antigens sandwiched together to detect TRAb. This type of method is not yet widely used clinically. Regardless of the method used, TRAb quantification requires the binding of TRAb with TSHR. Therefore, as a key raw material for TRAb detection, the performance of TSHR, both clinically and industrially, is crucial.

[0004] Since the value of TRAb in AITD was discovered, researchers and technicians in this field have never stopped studying methods for preparing TSHR protein. Currently, the main methods for preparing TSHR protein are natural extraction and genetic engineering techniques.

[0005] Natural extraction involves extracting TSHR from other species (mainly pigs) to replace human TSHR. However, because TSHR itself is present in very low concentrations on thyroid follicular cells, and because TSHR is a seven-membrane perforating protein with low solubility (requiring the addition of high concentrations of surfactants), coupled with the inherent instability of TSHR, the difficulty of natural extraction is significantly increased. To date, the purity and content of the extracted natural antigens are relatively low, the process is relatively complex and cumbersome, and there are significant batch-to-batch variations. The high concentration of surfactants in the extracts also makes the antigens unusable directly. These factors limit the development of subsequent research.

[0006] Since Nagayama successfully cloned human TSHR cDNA in 1989, many researchers have attempted various methods of recombinant TSHR expression using different expression systems. Loosfelt and Harfst et al. attempted to express the full-length and extracellular segments of TSHR using *E. coli*, but failed to achieve soluble expression; the protein existed as inclusion bodies, requiring urea denaturation and electroelution to obtain high-purity protein. However, these purification methods damaged the protein's structure, preventing it from binding to TSH and TRAb and thus hindering its application in subsequent research. In 1992, Harfst, in 1993, Huang, and in 1995, Fowler et al. attempted to express the full-length TSHR using a rod-insect expression system. Although high levels of mRNA were detected, TSHR expression was unsuccessful; these proteins were either insoluble in water, denatured, or lacked glycosylation. In 1995, Chazenbalk and Rapoport achieved extracellular segment expression by introducing an early promoter, but the expression level remained low. For a long time, researchers believed that the rod system was not suitable for the recombination expression of TSHR. Wedlock et al.'s attempts to recombinantly express the full-length and extracellular segments of TSHR in a yeast expression system by introducing the leader sequence STE2 and α factor all ended in failure.

[0007] To date, many researchers have considered the expression of TSHR in mammalian cells as the most effective method for recombinant expression of full-length TSHR. However, despite this, the expression level is still very low, and extracellular secretion expression has not been achieved. Protein expression is intracellular, requiring multiple steps such as cell collection, cell washing, cell disruption, and centrifugation of the disruption products to collect the supernatant in order to further purify and obtain recombinant TSHR protein. Given the instability of TSHR itself, each additional step increases the uncertainty of the purified product and affects the stability of the product's application effect.

[0008] In summary, current methods for preparing TSHR proteins suffer from several drawbacks, including low expression levels, low purity, low yield, complex and cumbersome extraction processes, poor stability, large batch-to-batch variability in extracted products, high concentrations of surfactants in the extracted products, and inability to express them in an extracellular soluble manner. Consequently, these methods cannot be directly used for TRAb detection. Summary of the Invention

The protein preparation method is simple and the protein yield is high. Attached Figure Description

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to represent selected embodiments of the invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] In the description of this invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0037] This invention provides a recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) protein, comprising an extracellular TSHR protein segment and an intracellular TSHR protein segment, wherein the C-terminus of the extracellular TSHR protein segment is attached to the N-terminus of the intracellular TSHR protein segment. The TSHR protein can be from humans; or from animals closely related to humans such as pigs, cattle, or chimpanzees; or from the above sources with individual amino acid mutations, but these individual amino acid mutations do not affect active, soluble expression.

[0038] Preferably, the amino acid sequence of the extracellular segment of the TSHR protein is shown in SEQ ID NO: 12; and the amino acid sequence of the intracellular segment of the TSHR protein is shown in SEQ ID NO: 13. More preferably, the extracellular segment of the TSHR protein is the amino acid sequence corresponding to the 64-1248 bp fragment of the full-length human TSHR DNA; and the intracellular segment of the TSHR protein is the amino acid sequence corresponding to the 2035-2292 bp fragment of the full-length human TSHR DNA.

[0039] The N-terminus of the recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein is also linked to an exogenous secretory signal peptide, which facilitates soluble protein expression. If the selected expression vector contains its own secretory signal peptide, the N-terminus of the recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein may not be linked to an exogenous secretory signal peptide.

[0040] Preferably, the C-terminus of the intracellular segment of the TSHR protein is further linked to a purification label sequence, which is selected from human recombinant IgG1 FC, 6×His, and GST label sequences, but is not limited to these. On the one hand, this increases the possibility of soluble expression, and on the other hand, the affinity chromatography tag can effectively separate the target fragment from the expression supernatant, thereby improving the purity of the protein.

[0041] A method for preparing the above-mentioned recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein includes the following steps:

[0042] S1. Construct a recombinant plasmid comprising an extracellular segment gene fragment and an intracellular segment gene fragment of the TSHR protein; the C-terminus of the extracellular segment of the TSHR protein is linked to the N-terminus of the intracellular segment. Preferably, the recombinant plasmid further comprises a purification marker sequence gene fragment, which is linked to the C-terminus of the intracellular segment of the TSHR protein. This method tandemly expresses the extracellular and intracellular segments of TSHR, achieving structural support from the intracellular segment to the extracellular segment, thereby increasing the stability of the extracellular segment and improving protein activity. Simultaneously, removing the transmembrane segment increases the probability of soluble expression, simplifying the purification process. This removed transmembrane segment is a 7-transmembrane protein, including the intramembrane portion and the extramembrane segment in the middle of the transmembrane segment.

[0043] S2, the recombinant plasmid is transferred into a eukaryotic expression system for the expression and identification of the target protein.

[0044] S3, Purify the target protein. The purification method is a conventional protein purification technique, which will not be described in detail here.

[0045] The method for constructing the recombinant plasmid involves first ligating the extracellular and intracellular gene fragments of the TSHR protein into a target gene fragment using overlap PCR, and then constructing the target gene fragment into a plasmid vector using the Gibson cloning method. Preferably, the target gene fragment further includes a purified marker sequence gene fragment.

[0046] Alternatively, the method for constructing the recombinant plasmid involves first chemically synthesizing a target gene fragment comprising both the extracellular and intracellular segments of the TSHR protein, and then constructing the target gene fragment into a plasmid vector. Preferably, the target gene fragment further includes a purified marker sequence gene fragment. The chemical synthesis can be performed in various ways, such as synthesizing each fragment individually, combining multiple fragments in pairs, or directly synthesizing the sequence into the expression vector in one step.

[0047] As a further improvement, the eukaryotic expression system is selected from, but is not limited to, a rod-insect expression system, a CHO cell expression system, a 293 cell expression system, or a yeast expression system. More preferably, the eukaryotic expression system is a rod-insect expression system, under which the expressed protein exhibits the highest stability and activity.

[0060] The amino acid sequence of the extracellular segment of hTSHR is shown in SEQ ID NO: 12; the amino acid sequence of the intracellular segment of hTSHR is shown in SEQ ID NO: 13.

[0061] Construction of recombinant plasmids:

[0062] 1. The pAcGP67-B vector (which contains a secretory signal peptide and does not require additional ligation) was double-digested with QuickCut BamHI and QuickCut NotI. After incubating at 37°C for an appropriate time, the digested vector was subjected to 1% agarose gel electrophoresis and purified using a gel extraction kit to obtain the linear vector.

[0063] 2. Using hTSHR DNA as a template, the hTSHR DNA sequence from positions 64 to 1248 was amplified using primers PF1 and PR1 (T1); the hTSHR DNA sequence from positions 2035 to 2292 was amplified using primers PF2 and PR2 (T2); and the human antibody IgG1 DNA sequence from the constant region of the human antibody was amplified using primers PF3 and PR3 (T3). The T1 (positions 64-1248), T2 (positions 2035-2292), and T3 (human antibody constant region sequence) DNA fragments amplified by PCR were subjected to 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, purified and identified using a gel extraction kit. The identification results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown.

[0064] 3. Using overlap PCR, with PF1 and PR2 as primers and PCR products T1 and T2 as templates, the purified DNA fragments at positions 64-1248 / 2035-2292 were PCR-assembled to obtain PCR product (T4). PCR product T4 was subjected to 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, purified and recovered using a gel extraction kit, and identified. The identification results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0065] 4. Using overlap PCR, with PF1 and PR3 as primers and PCR recovered products T3 and T4 as templates, the gene sequence of 64-1248bp / 2035-2292bp was PCR-assembled with the human antibody constant region sequence to obtain PCR product (T5). PCR product T5 was subjected to 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, purified and identified using a gel extraction kit; the identification results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the desired segment is obtained.

[0066] 5. Take 2 μL of the purified and recovered linear vector and target fragment, and dilute with sterile water to a concentration of 0.1 μg / μL for later use.

[0067] 6. The purified target fragment and linear vector were assembled using Gibson assembly buffer (5.6 mU / μL T5 exonuclease; 33.3 mU / μL phusion polymerase; 5.3 U / μL Taq ligase; 0.27 mM dNTP). The molar ratio of the target fragment to the linear vector was controlled at 4:1. The system was as follows: linear vector fragment: 1 μL; DNA fragment tandemly bound to the constant region of the human antibody at positions 64-1248 / 2035-2292 of hTSHR (target fragment): 4 μL; Gibson assembly buffer: 5 μL. The mixture was vortexed and incubated at 50°C for 1 h. The ligation system was then transformed into E. coli competent cells Trans5α (purchased from Kangti Life Insurance Co., Ltd.). Positive and negative controls were set up during transformation. The positive control was an undigested plasmid used to detect transformation efficiency; the negative control was empty E. coli competent cells used to detect whether the competent cells were contaminated. The transformation product was plated on LB agar containing ampicillin (100 μL / mL) and incubated overnight at 37°C. Multiple single colonies were randomly picked from the LB plates containing the recombinant plasmid and used as templates for PCR amplification using universal primers. The presence of the target band was detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. Simultaneously, the picked single colonies were cultured separately, and plasmids were extracted according to the plasmid extraction kit instructions. The plasmids were then digested with the corresponding restriction endonucleases, and the digestion products were detected by electrophoresis.

[0068] 7. Samples that tested positive by both bacterial PCR and double enzyme digestion were sent to an external sequencing facility to confirm the correctness of plasmid construction.

[0069] 8. Preparation of high-purity recombinant plasmids

[0070] The plasmid extraction kit from TIANGEN was used for the procedure.

[0071] 1) For plasmids with high copy numbers, collect the bacterial cells using 5 mL of overnight LB culture, centrifuge at 8000 rpm for 5 min, and discard the supernatant;

[0072] 2) Add 250 μL of P1 (with added Rnase A) to resuspend the bacterial cells and mix thoroughly by pipetting.

[0081] Target protein expression and identification (baculovirus-insect expression system)

[0082] 1. Baculovirus preparation:

[0083] (1) Before transfection, SF9 cells (insect cells) in the logarithmic growth phase were seeded into 24-well culture plates, with each well containing 2.5-2.8×10^5 cells. The serum-free SIMHF medium volume was 500ul, and the cells were placed in a humidified incubator at 27℃ for 30min.

[0084] (2) Preparation of liposome / DNA complex

[0085] Solution 1: Take 1 μL of purified hTSHR / pAcGP67-B recombinant plasmid and 1 μL of linearized Baculovirus DNA and dilute them in 50 μL Medium.

[0086] Solution 2: Dilute 2ul of Lipofectamine™ 2000 in 50ul of Medium.

[0087] Mix Solution 1 and Solution 2 thoroughly to obtain the liposome / DNA complex, and incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.

[0088] (3) Transfection: Discard the original culture medium in the 24-well plate, rinse once with 1 ml of serum-free SIMHF medium, and finally add 500 μl of serum-free SIMHF medium. Slowly add the prepared liposome / DNA complex into the 24-well plate, gently mix, and incubate overnight at 27°C in a humidified incubator. The next day, add 1 ml of SIMHF medium containing FBS to the 24-well plate and continue incubation for 3 days. The virus reaches generation P0. Transfect the empty plasmid pAcGP67-B as a negative control using the same method.

[0089] (4) P1 generation virus amplification: 72 h after transfection, the cells from the 24-well plate were transferred to a 10 cm plate with a cell density of 1×10^6 cells / mL and incubated in a humidified incubator at 27℃ for 72 h.

[0090] (5) P2 generation virus amplification: After 72 h of adherent culture, the adherent cells on a 10 cm plate were resuspended with an electric pipette, and the culture medium was enriched in a sterile tube. 2 ml of the culture medium was transferred to a 100 ml Erlenmeyer flask containing 50 ml of cells at a density of 1×10^6 cells / mL. The flask was then placed in a constant temperature shaker at 27 °C for 96 h of suspension culture. The virus was P2 generation. The remaining enriched culture medium (P1 generation virus) was stored at 4 °C in the dark.

[0091] (6) P3 generation virus amplification: Take 2 ml of P2 generation culture medium and transfer it to a 100 ml Erlenmeyer flask containing 50 ml of cells with a density of 1×10^6 cells / mL. After suspension culture for 96 h, take 20 μl of culture medium, add 20 μl of trypan blue staining, monitor the cytopathic effect of cells with a cell counter, enrich the culture medium in sterile tubes, store at 4℃ in the dark, and use it for protein expression preparation.

[0092] 2. Expression of the target protein in High-Five (H5) cells (insect cells):

[0093] H5 cells were diluted to a density of 3.0 × 10^6 cells / mL, with a total volume of 500 mL. Cell viability was greater than 98%, and cell diameter was 17-17.5 μm. 5 mL of P3 generation virus containing the target gene was added, and the cells were incubated at 27°C in a shaker. After 72 h, 20 μL of culture medium was added and stained with 20 μL of trypan blue. Cellular pathogenesis was monitored using a cell counter. Results before and after pathogenesis are shown below. Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the diameter distribution of normal cells before expression was statistically analyzed using Countstar (purchased from ALIT) at 25x magnification. When the virus effectively infected the cells, the cell diameter increased significantly. After the cell viability decreased to a certain level, the culture supernatant was collected for activity identification and protein purification.

[0094] 3. Activity identification of expression products in culture supernatant:

[0095] A chemiluminescent double-antibody sandwich assay using acridinium ester, constructed from a TSHR C-terminal mouse antibody 10F8 and a human-stimulated TRAb, was used to detect the expression in the cell supernatant. The results showed that the expression product exhibited high activity. The specific detection method is shown below:

[0096] 3.1 10F8 magnetic bead coating

[0097] (1) Equilibrate the magnetic microparticles and EDC to room temperature, take magnetic microparticles with a concentration of 4 mg / ml, add a certain concentration of activator EDC, and place at room temperature for 30 min to activate.

[0107] 3.3 Activity detection of supernatant expression products

[0108] H5 cell expression supernatant was diluted to prepare a series of samples. First, the recombinant hTSHR in the samples reacted with magnetically coated 10F8 for 15 min, forming a 10F8-coated magnetic microparticle-recombinant hTSHR complex. After magnetic separation and washing, other substances not bound to the magnetic microparticles were removed. Next, acridil ester-labeled stimulating TRAb was added and reacted with the recombinant hTSHR in the samples for 10 min, forming a "10F8-coated magnetic microparticle-recombinant hTSHR-acridil ester-labeled stimulating TRAb" complex. After magnetic separation and washing, other substances not bound to the magnetic microparticles were removed. Finally, pre-activation and activation solutions were added, and the complex emitted a light signal of detectable intensity, expressed as a relative luminescence intensity (RLU). The mean light signal intensity was proportional to the amount of recombinant hTSHR in the sample. The results of the serially diluted H5 expression supernatant samples showed that the expression product in the cell supernatant had high activity (Table 1).

[0111] Purification and identification of target protein:

[0112] 4.1 Purification of the target protein

[0113] The enriched H5 cell culture medium was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant was dialyzed into 20 mM PBS buffer. The pH of the supernatant after dialysis was measured to be around 7.2. Protein purification was performed directly using a Protein A column with citric acid gradient elution. The elution peak of 70% citric acid was collected, and the target protein was harvested after dialysis.

[0114] 4.2 Western blot analysis of cell supernatant and purified protein activity

[0115] (1) Sample preparation: Take 50 μL of H5 cell culture supernatant, 50 μL of purified protein, and 50 μL of unrelated protein fused with human FC expression, add 10 μL of 6×SDS gel loading buffer, mix, boil in boiling water for 10 min, and centrifuge at 10000g for 10 min.

[0116] (2) Electrophoresis: Load the above protein samples and perform 12% SDS-PAGE at a constant voltage of 80V;

[0117] (3) Transfer: Transfer the protein onto a nitrocellulose membrane at 35 mA / gel for 45 min.

[0118] (4) Sealing: Slowly shake in 5% skim milk powder sealing solution for 1 hour;

[0119] (5) Primary antibody reaction: Dilute hTSHR C-terminal antibody 10F8 with 5% skim milk powder to 10ug / ml, prepare 10ml, put the above-transferred nitrocellulose membrane into the prepared primary antibody, and react for 30min.

[0120] (6) Washing: Wash the above nitrocellulose membrane with 11×TNT 5 times, 3-5 minutes each time;

[0121] (7) Secondary antibody incubation: Dilute KPL GAM-AP with 5% skim milk powder at a ratio of 1:5K to prepare 10ml. Place the above-transferred nitrocellulose membrane into the prepared primary antibody and react for 30min.

[0122] (8) Washing: Wash the above nitrocellulose membrane with 1×TNT 5 times, 3-5 minutes each time;

[0123] (9) Color development and termination: Add 10ml of diluted BCIP / NBT color development solution, and perform the color development reaction in the dark for 15min. Discard the color development solution, rinse once with deionized water, take a picture, and store in the dark.

[0124] SDS-PAGE and WB identification results as follows Figure 6 As shown, the target protein band is clearly visible in the expression supernatant. After purification, the purity of the target protein can reach more than 90%, indicating that the protein has a high level of soluble expression, i.e., high yield. The expression cell supernatant can be directly run into a gel without concentration to see a relatively obvious target protein band.

[0125] Example 2 Performance evaluation of recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein

[0126] Using the acrid ester chemiluminescence double antibody sandwich method combined with a competitive method mentioned in Example 1, a prototype reagent for TRAb detection of the target protein was further constructed. The constructed TRAb reagent was placed on a fully automated chemiluminescence analyzer Caris 200, and the samples were tested according to the standard operating procedures of the Caris 200 fully automated chemiluminescence analyzer. First, TRAb was serially diluted into a series of samples, and the serially diluted samples of TRAb were tested strictly according to the standard operating procedures of the Caris 200 fully automated chemiluminescence analyzer. The detected relative luminescence intensity (RLU) was fitted with the corresponding concentration in an appropriate manner (data shown in Table 2). The results showed that the correlation coefficient r of linear fitting in the range of 1-40 IU / L was 0.9972 (e.g., ...). Figure 7This indicates that the reagent exhibits good linearity within the range of 1-40 IU / L. The commercially available Roche TRAb electrochemiluminescence immunoassay reagent was selected as a control reagent. Following strict adherence to the instructions for the commercial reagent, the constructed TRAb prototype assay was used to perform parallel assays on 30 clinical samples with the commercially available TRAb assay. The correlation coefficient r between the two assays was 0.975 (e.g., ...). Figure 8 The results indicate that this reagent and the control reagent have a good quantitative correlation within the detection range, proving that this recombinant protein can be effectively used in the development of TRAb detection reagents and applied to industrial production. In summary, the above experimental results demonstrate that the purified protein has high activity.

[0129] Example 3: Stability evaluation of recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor protein:

[0130] The purified recombinant protein was aliquoted and subjected to repeated freeze-thaw activity testing after storage at -20°C. Signal values ​​were measured before freezing, after one thaw, two thaws, three thaws, four thaws, and five thaws. Duplicate wells were tested, and the mean values ​​were analyzed. Using the mean signal value before freezing as the standard, the activity change corresponding to the signal value deviation after 1-5 freeze-thaw cycles was calculated to assess the freeze-thaw stability of the recombinant protein. The specific testing method is as follows: The recombinant hTSHR antigen to be evaluated was diluted to a certain concentration and added to magnetically coated 10F8 polymer solution. The reaction was carried out for 15 min to form a 10F8-coated magnetic microparticle-recombinant hTSHR complex. After magnetic separation and washing, other substances not bound to the magnetic microparticles were removed. Next, acrid ester-labeled stimulating TRAb was added and reacted with the recombinant hTSHR in the sample for 10 min to form a "10F8-coated magnetic microparticle-recombinant hTSHR-acrididyl ester-labeled stimulating TRAb" complex. After magnetic separation and washing, other substances not bound to the magnetic microparticles were removed. Finally, the pre-activation solution and activation solution are added, and the complex can emit a light signal of detectable intensity by the luminescence analyzer, expressed as the relative luminescence value (RLU). The results are shown in Table 3. That is, even if the recombinant protein prepared by this method is repeatedly frozen and thawed 5 times, the detection activity deviation can be controlled within 10%, that is, freezing and thawing does not significantly affect the activity of the protein. This shows that the recombinant antigen prepared by this method has good freeze-thaw stability and can further support industrial production.
