Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a monoclonal antibody against norovirus and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Norovirus (English: Norovirus, Winter Vomiting Bug, abbreviated: NV), also known as norovirus, Norwalk virus or pyomel virus, is a virus that causes non-bacterial acute gastroenteritis. The characteristic of norovirus is that it infects places with high population density and poor sanitary environment, such as cruise ships. Norovirus is mainly transmitted by the fecal-oral route, that is, food is contaminated by feces full of viruses. It may also be transmitted through droplets in places with high population density.

[0003] Norovirus is divided into genogroup I and genogroup II according to its genetic genes. Genogroup I includes Norovirus, Southampton virus, and Desert Shield virus; genogroup II includes Snow Mountain virus, Hawaii virus, and Toronto virus. The general symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, low-grade fever, and muscle aches all over the body. The symptoms usually disappear after 12 to 60 hours, but the excretion of the virus will continue for about 2 weeks. If the diarrhea is severe, dehydration and shock are likely to occur. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0011] Furthermore, the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain variable region of the monoclonal antibody has at least 60% identity, preferably at least 65% identity, preferably at least 70% identity, preferably at least 75% identity, preferably at least 80% identity, preferably at least 85% identity, preferably at least 90% identity, preferably at least 95% identity, preferably at least 96% identity, preferably at least 97% identity, preferably at least 98% identity, preferably at least 99% identity with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:14.

[0016] The terms "sequence identity" and "identity" as used herein are synonymous and refer to the "percentage of sequence identity" or "percentage of identity" between two polynucleotides, i.e., the number of identical matching positions shared by the sequences in the comparison window, taking into account the additions or deletions (i.e., gaps) that must be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences. A matching position is any position in which the same nucleotides are present in both the target sequence and the reference sequence. Since the gap is not a nucleotide, the gap present in the target sequence is not counted. Similarly, since the target sequence nucleotides are counted, and the nucleotides from the reference sequence are not counted, the gap present in the reference sequence is not counted. At least 60% sequence identity includes at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99% or 100% of the total length of the sequence having a continuous segment with sequence identity. "Percentage of sequence identity" can be calculated by comparing the two best aligned sequences in the window, determining the number of positions where the same nucleic acid base (e.g., A, T, C, G, I) or the same amino acid residue (e.g., Ala, Pro, Ser, Thr, Gly, Val, Leu, Ile, Phe, Tyr, Trp, Lys, Arg, His, Asp, Glu, Asn, Gln, Cys and Met) appears in the two sequences to obtain the number of matching positions, dividing the number of matching positions by the total number of positions in the comparison window (i.e., the window size), and multiplying the result by 100 to obtain the percentage of sequence identity.

[0017] The term "antibody" as used herein is generally an immunoglobulin molecule consisting of two pairs of polypeptide chains, each pair having a light chain (LC) and a heavy chain (HC). Antibody light chains can be classified as κ (kappa) and λ (lambda) light chains. Heavy chains can be classified as μ, δ, γ, α or ε, and the isotype of the antibody is defined as IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA and IgE, respectively. Within the light and heavy chains, the variable and constant regions are connected by a "J" region of about 12 or more amino acids, and the heavy chain may also include a "D" region of about 3 or more amino acids. Each heavy chain consists of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region (CH). The heavy chain constant region consists of three domains (CH1, CH2 and CH3). Each light chain consists of a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region (CL). The light chain constant region consists of one domain CL. The constant domain is not directly involved in the binding of antibodies to antigens, but exhibits a variety of effector functions, such as mediating the binding of immunoglobulins to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and the first component (C1q) of the classical complement system. The VH and VL regions can also be subdivided into regions with high variability (called complementary determining regions (CDRs)), interspersed with more conservative regions called framework regions (FRs). Each VH and VL consists of three CDRs and four FRs arranged from the amino terminus to the carboxyl terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The variable regions (VH and VL) in each heavy chain and light chain form antigen binding sites, respectively.

[0018] In some embodiments, the present invention provides an "anti-Norovirus type 1 VP1 protein antibody" that is a monoclonal antibody. A monoclonal antibody refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous antibody population, i.e., the individual antibodies constituting the antibody population are identical except for possible naturally occurring mutations that may be present in small amounts. The modifier "monoclonal" refers to the characteristic of an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous antibody population, and is not to be construed as requiring the antibody to be produced by any particular method. For example, the monoclonal antibodies used in accordance with the present invention may be prepared by the hybridoma (murine or human) method first described by Kohler et al., Nature, 256:495 (1975), or may be prepared by recombinant DNA methods (see, e.g., US 4,816,567). "Monoclonal antibodies" may also be isolated from phage antibody libraries using, for example, the techniques described in Clackson et al., Nature, 352:624-628 (1991) and Marks et al., J Mol. Biol., 222:581-597 (1991).

Of course, these regulatory elements can come directly from the vector itself, or they can be exogenous, that is, not from the vector itself. In other words, the nucleic acid molecule is operably connected to the regulatory element. Commonly used vectors include prokaryotic expression vectors, eukaryotic expression vectors, or viral expression vectors, etc.

[0026] In some embodiments, the selection of a specific vector will depend on the target cell and the conditions being treated.
