Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a soluble single-chain antibody capable of broadly recognizing human norovirus and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the main methods for detecting human norovirus (hNoV) include: molecular detection methods based on viral nucleic acid fragments and immunological methods for detecting antigenic determinants.

[0003] Molecular detection methods primarily include RT-PCR and RT-qPCR. RT-qPCR, due to its high sensitivity and specificity, has become the gold standard for hNoV detection. However, hNoV genotypes are diverse and prone to mutation, making universal detection a non-existent system. Furthermore, this method typically requires sophisticated equipment and specialized operators, with a detection cycle of approximately two hours, severely limiting its potential use cases.

[0004] Immunological methods diagnose hNoV infection (contamination) by detecting viral antigens. The major capsid protein is the primary immunogenic protein of the virus and is divided into a highly conserved capsid region and a protruding region that is prone to mutation. Targeting the protruding region can only detect a few hNoV genotypes, while targeting the conserved region allows for broad-spectrum detection. However, the monoclonal antibody preparation process used in immunological testing is complex, requires demanding technicians, is costly, and the hybridoma cells are susceptible to degeneration.

[0005] Antibodies are a type of immunoglobulin produced by effector B cells that can recognize and specifically bind to antigens. Classic antibodies have a "Y"-shaped structure consisting of two heavy chains and a light chain, both of which include variable and constant regions. Single-chain antibodies (scFv) are genetically engineered antibodies, consisting of a polypeptide chain that connects the heavy chain variable region (VH) and the light chain variable region (VL) via a linker peptide. The linker sequence should have a certain degree of hydrophilicity and should not be too short to reduce the aggregation of polypeptide chains and ensure that the linker does not affect the spatial structure formed by VH and VL during protein folding. Among them, the linker peptide (Gly4Ser)3 has good flexibility and low immunogenicity, and has become the most widely used linker.

[0006] Escherichia coli has become the most common host for scFv production due to its low cultivation cost, fast growth rate, and large number of candidate cloning vectors and host strains. When expressed in large quantities in the reducing environment of the E. coli cytoplasm, scFvs tend to form insoluble aggregates (inclusion bodies) and lack biological activity. To ensure the recognition activity of scFvs, signal peptides can be used to direct scFvs to the periplasmic space of E. coli to improve soluble expression, but the expression level is too low. In addition, adding soluble tag proteins is one of the common methods for expressing soluble single-chain antibodies. Commonly used soluble tag proteins include maltose binding protein (MBP), glutathione S-transferase (GST), and small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO).

[0007] Therefore, those skilled in the art are committed to developing a low-cost, soluble scFv that specifically recognizes and binds to antigens and can broadly recognize hNoVs of different genotypes. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to prepare a low-cost, soluble scFv that specifically recognizes and binds to antigens and can broadly recognize different genotypes of hNoV.

[0018] Furthermore, step 2 also includes extracting the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D, chemically transforming Origami2 competent cells, and storing positive clones for future use.

Use SDS-PAGE to identify whether the J5D protein is successfully induced to express and whether it is soluble.

[0020] The present invention also provides a recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D, the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID No. 4.

[0021] Furthermore, the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D carries an MBP tag.

[0022] Furthermore, the MBP tag has lytic activity and can help improve the biological activity of scFv.

[0023] The present invention also provides a method for constructing a recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D, comprising the following steps:

[0031] The present invention also provides a use of a soluble single-chain antibody J5D in a reagent for broadly identifying hNoV of different genotypes.

[0032] Furthermore, broad spectrum recognition of different genotypes of hNoV was achieved.

[0037] The beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0038] The present invention provides a simple and easy method for preparing a scFv that can broadly recognize different genotypes of hNoV. The scFv was successfully prepared, showing strong specificity and high stability. The major capsid protein, the primary immunogenic protein of hNoV, is divided into a highly conserved capsid region and a highly variable protruding region.

[0049] Example 1 Obtaining the nucleotide sequence of a soluble single-chain antibody that broadly recognizes different genotypes of hNoV, specifically:

[0050] (1) Design of primers for the variable regions of mouse monoclonal antibodies: Specific primers were designed based on the VH and VL sequences of mouse monoclonal antibody encoding genes published in GenBank (see Table 1).

[0054] (2) Amplification of J5D (scFv) VH and VL genes: Hybridoma cells were cultured, mRNA was extracted, and the cDNA obtained by reverse transcription was used as a template to amplify the VH and VL gene fragments using the specific primers listed in Table 1. The PCR reaction system was 25.0 μL: 12.5 μL of 2× PrimeSTAR GC Buffer, 2.0 μL of dNTPs, 0.5 μL each of the upstream and downstream primers (25 μM), 0.25 μL of PrimeSTAR HSDNA Polymerase (2.5 U / μL), 2.0 μL of template cDNA, and 7.25 μL of ddH2O. The amplification procedure was as follows: initial denaturation at 95°C for 3 min; 50 cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 30 s, annealing at 50°C for 30 s, and extension at 72°C for 1 min; and a final extension at 72°C for 10 min. The target product was identified by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis (according to the gel recovery instructions provided by Thermo). The nucleotide fragments of VH and VL were both about 350 bp in size. The electrophoresis results were as follows: Figure 1 As shown, after purification and recovery, they were cloned into a T vector, and after DNA sequencing verification, they were aligned and identified as mouse VH and VL (kappa) genes on the IMGT website.

[0055] (3) Acquisition of J5D (scFv) gene

[0056] Using the T vector containing the J5D (scFv) VH and VL gene sequences as templates, 5H-F and 5H-R-Linker primers (see Table 2) were used to amplify the J5D (scFv)-VH-Linker nucleotide fragment, and Linker-5K-F and 5K-R primers were used to amplify the Linker-J5D (scFv)-VL (kappa) nucleotide fragment. These fragments were then spliced ​​using SOE-PCR. 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed that the target product was approximately 750 bp in size. The electrophoresis results were as follows: Figure 2 As shown, DNA sequencing confirmed that it could be correctly translated, and the obtained nucleotide sequence was the J5D (scFv) gene coding sequence.

[0060] Example 2 Construction of recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D (scFv)

[0061] Using the J5D (scFv) gene coding sequence as a template, an upstream primer containing an Nde I restriction endonuclease cleavage site and a downstream primer containing a Hind III restriction endonuclease cleavage site and a His tag coding sequence (see Table 3) were used to obtain a J5D (scFv) gene fragment containing Nde I and Hind III restriction endonuclease cleavage sites by PCR amplification, and the fragment was recovered using an agarose gel purification kit. The prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X was extracted, and then the J5D (scFv) recovery product and plasmid pMAL-c5X were digested with NdeI and Hind III endonucleases, respectively. The digested J5D (scFv) gene fragment and the linearized pMAL-c5X plasmid fragment were ligated with T4 ligase, transformed into DH5α competent cells, spread on plates, and cultured in an inverted manner at 37°C. Single colonies were picked, positive clones were identified by bacterial liquid PCR, and plasmids were extracted. The obtained recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D (scFv) was verified by DNA sequencing. The results showed that the sequence of J5D (scFv) was consistent with the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 4, indicating that the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D (scFv) was successfully constructed. The plasmid map is shown in FIG. Figure 3 DNA sequencing was performed by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

[0062] The recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D (scFv) was extracted and chemically transformed into Origami2 (DE3) competent cells, and the positive clones were stored for future use.

[0065] Note: The single-underlined base sequence is the restriction site, and the double-underlined base sequence is the coding sequence of the His tag

[0066] Example 3 Prokaryotic expression and purification of J5D (scFv)

[0067] (1) Prokaryotic expression of J5D (scFv): Take the Origami2 (DE3) Escherichia coli containing the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D (scFv) and streak it on LB solid medium containing ampicillin, and culture it at 37°C overnight; pick a single clone in LB liquid medium containing ampicillin, and culture it at 37°C with shaking overnight; expand the culture at a ratio of 1:100, and when the OD 600When the pH value is approximately 0.6, remove 3 mL of the uninduced bacterial culture, centrifuge, and discard the supernatant. Store the pellet at -20°C. Add IPTG (final concentration 0.6 mM) to the remaining culture, incubate at 22°C with shaking for 30 h, remove 3 mL of the culture, centrifuge, and discard the supernatant. Store the pellet at -20°C. Centrifuge the remaining induced culture at 8,000 × g for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and collect the cells. Resuspend in 5-10 volumes of Lysis Buffer (containing PMSF (final concentration 1 mM) and 0.3 mg / mL lysozyme), and disrupt the cells using an ultrasonic cell disruptor to release proteins. Ultrasonication conditions: 200 W, 4 s of disruption, 9 s of rest, for a total of 30-45 min. Centrifuge at 12,000 × g at 4°C for 20-30 min. Collect the supernatant (possibly containing soluble protein) and the pellet (possibly containing insoluble protein).

[0068] Uninduced cells, induced cells, supernatant after induced cell disruption, and precipitate after induced cell disruption were mixed with an equal volume of 2× protein loading buffer, incubated in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes, and then immediately placed in an ice bath. SDS-PAGE was used to determine whether the J5D (scFv) protein was successfully induced and expressed in a soluble form. Figure 4 As shown, the uninduced Origami2(DE3) cells harboring the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D(scFv) lacked the target protein band, whereas the induced Origami2(DE3) cells harboring the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pMAL-c5X-J5D(scFv) contained a protein band of approximately 68 kDa, consistent with the theoretical fusion protein size, indicating successful induced expression of the J5D(scFv) protein. Both the supernatant and the precipitate after disruption of the induced cells contained the target protein, but the protein content in the supernatant was significantly higher than that in the precipitate, indicating that the J5D(scFv) recombinant protein was primarily expressed in a soluble form in Origami2(DE3) E. coli.

[0069] (2) Purification of J5D (scFv) recombinant protein: Filter the supernatant after the induced bacterial cell disruption in the previous step with a 0.45 μm filter membrane, and purify J5D (scFv) using a computer nucleic acid protein detector. The specific operation is as follows:

[0070] Load an appropriate amount of Ni NTA Beads 6FF filler into the purification column;

[0071] After filling the pump pipeline with deionized water, remove the plug on the top of the Ni column and connect it to the pump pipeline;

[0072] Remove the plug at the bottom of the Ni column and connect it to the liquid inlet tube of the computer nucleic acid protein detector, and plug it tightly to prevent leakage;

[0073] Use deionized water to flush the packing material at a rate of 1.0 mL / min for 3-5 column volumes to clean the storage solution in the Ni column;

[0074] Use Lysis Buffer to equilibrate the packing for 5 column volumes at 1.0 mL / min;

[0075] The filtered recombinant E. coli supernatant was loaded at a rate of 0.3 mL / min;

[0076] Wash 3 column volumes with Lysis Buffer at a rate of 0.3 mL / min;

[0077] Wash the residual impurities on the Ni column with 10-15 column volumes of Wash Buffer at a rate of 1.0 mL / min until the detected OD280 reaches a stable baseline;

[0078] Elute the target protein bound to the Ni column with 5-7 column volumes of Elution Buffer at a rate of 1.0 mL / min. Closely observe the OD280 value of the effluent measured by the computer nucleic acid protein detector and collect the effluent at the peak, which is the target protein.

[0079] The collected protein samples were identified by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Figure 5 As shown, the soluble recombinant protein J5D (scFv) was successfully purified.

[0080] Example 4 Affinity determination of J5D (scFv)

[0081] Indirect ELISA was used to detect the affinity of the soluble recombinant protein J5D (scFv) to the recombinant protein of the conserved region of the hNoV major capsid protein.

[0082] Coating: Dilute the purified soluble recombinant protein J5D (scFv) to 20 μg / mL using coating solution, add 100 μL per well to the ELISA plate, and coat overnight at 4°C. Simultaneously, coat the recombinant protein of the conserved region of the hNoV major capsid protein as a positive control, and coat with 1.0% BSA as a negative control.

[0083] The next day, the coated protein was discarded and the cells were washed three times with 150 μL PBS;

[0084] Blocking: Add 120 μL of 1.0% BSA blocking solution to each well and block at 37°C for 1 h;

[0085] The blocking solution was discarded and the cells were washed three times with 150 μL PBS;

[0086] Incubation with bound proteins: add 100 μL of hNoV major capsid protein conserved region recombinant protein to each well and incubate at 37°C for 1 h;

[0087] The bound proteins were discarded and washed three times with 150 μL TBST;

[0088] Primary antibody incubation: add 100 μL of hNoV monoclonal antibody diluted with 1.0% BSA (1:1000 dilution) to each well and incubate at 37°C for 1 h;

[0089] The primary antibody was discarded and the cells were washed three times with 150 μL TBST;

[0090] Secondary antibody incubation: add 100 μL of HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) diluted in 1.0% BSA (1:1500 dilution) to each well and incubate at 37°C for 1 h;

[0091] The secondary antibody was discarded and the cells were washed three times with 150 μL TBST;

[0092] Color development: add 100 μL TMB color development solution to each well and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 10 min;

[0093] Reaction termination: Add 50 μL of 2M H2SO4 to each well to terminate the reaction, and use a microplate reader to measure the OD value at a wavelength of 450 nm.

[0094] The statistical results are as follows Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the OD450 nm values ​​of the soluble recombinant protein J5D (scFv) and the positive control were extremely significantly higher than those of the negative control (p < 0.01), and the OD450 nm value of J5D (scFv) was extremely significantly higher than that of the positive control (p < 0.01), indicating that J5D (scFv) has a high affinity with the recombinant protein of the conserved region of the hNoV major capsid protein.

It should be understood that numerous modifications and variations based on the concepts of the present invention are possible without inventive effort by those skilled in the art.
