Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bioengineering pharmaceuticals, and more particularly to a purification method suitable for preparing a multi-unit vaccine for poultry using an Escherichia coli expression process. Background Art

[0002] Escherichia coli is a host bacteria commonly used in the production of recombinant proteins. It has the advantages of clear genetic background, simple culture operation, high transformation and transduction efficiency, fast growth and reproduction, low cost, and can quickly and large-scale production of target proteins. However, the large-scale production of recombinant proteins based on Escherichia coli will produce a large amount of impurities and endotoxins. In the preparation process of the vaccine, if a large amount of impurities and endotoxins cannot be removed, it will cause fever, stress, decreased feeding and other symptoms in the immunized animals, and also affect the absorption of the vaccine. The vaccine injection site is prone to cause inflammatory reactions, which in turn affects the ketone quality of meat products.

[0003] In the process of large-scale factory preparation of recombinant proteins based on the E. coli expression system, the problem of how to remove impurities and endotoxins efficiently, at low cost, and easily for large-scale factory production operations is also a difficult problem that plagues the development of the industry.

[0004] Currently known methods for removing impurities from recombinant proteins mainly include: the first is the ammonium sulfate method, which is based on the different solubility of proteins in ammonium sulfate of different solubility to separate and remove impurities. The advantages are low cost and simple operation, but the disadvantage is that the purity of the separated protein is not high. The second is the chromatography method, including molecular sieve, ion exchange, affinity chromatography, hydrophobic chromatography and other methods, among which molecular sieve chromatography is also called gel filtration chromatography or size exclusion chromatography. Molecular sieve chromatography is a chromatography technique that uses a porous gel with a certain pore size range as a stationary phase to separate the components in a mixture according to their molecular size; the ion exchange method is based on the principle that when the pH of the solution is appropriate, the target protein has a negative (positive) charge, so it can have a strong binding with the anion (cation) ion exchange medium, while the impurities flow through, and the target protein on the column is removed with a high salt buffer; the affinity purification method is based on the principle that an appropriate ligand is immobilized on a chromatographic matrix to synthesize an affinity medium so that it specifically binds to the target protein; the hydrophobic chromatography method is based on the principle that some proteins in the impurities have strong hydrophobicity, but will agglutinate under high salt conditions and cannot be attached to the hydrophobic chromatography column. Therefore, a hydrophobic medium that can bind to the target protein can be selected to remove this part of the protein. The advantage of the chromatography method is that it can effectively remove impurities, the purity of the target protein is high, the efficiency is high, and it is suitable for large-scale production and use. The disadvantage is that in the process of removing impurities, specific equipment and fillers are required, and the cost of use is high. At the same time, it is also necessary to explore suitable purification methods based on the characteristics of the purified target protein.

[0005] There are several methods for removing endotoxins: 1. Liquid phase separation method, the principle is to use Triton X-114 to bind to the lipid part of endotoxins, and extract endotoxins multiple times (2-3 times) through liquid phase separation to effectively remove the latter; this method is simple to operate and has low cost; the disadvantage is that multiple centrifuges are required in large-scale production, and the time is long and the efficiency is low. 2. Ultrafiltration method, according to the difference in molecular weight between the target protein and endotoxin, select an ultrafiltration membrane with a pore size larger than the target protein as the first ultrafiltration, intercept endotoxins, collect the target protein, and then select an ultrafiltration membrane with a pore size smaller than the target protein as the second ultrafiltration, intercept the target protein, and remove endotoxins; this method requires the selection of a suitable ultrafiltration membrane, and at the same time has extremely high requirements for the viscosity of the protein solution. If the viscosity is too high, the protein is easy to adhere to the ultrafiltration membrane, blocking the ultrafiltration membrane, affecting the ultrafiltration effect, and the protein loss is high. At present, this method is less used in the removal of endotoxins from Escherichia coli. 3. Chromatography. Refer to the analysis of "chromatography" in the above "method for removing impure proteins". You can choose a suitable chromatography method to remove endotoxins based on their negative charge and hydrophobic properties.

[0006] Purification of avian embryo-derived antigens is currently mainly based on centrifugation. Through continuous flow centrifugation equipment such as tubular centrifuges or butterfly centrifuges, impurities such as egg yolk and cell membrane in antigens can be removed. The efficiency is relatively high in large-scale production, but this method cannot effectively remove foreign proteins in the allantoic fluid. In addition, some manufacturers process antigens by filtration. Through multi-stage filtration or deep filtration, the purity of antigens can be significantly improved, but this method requires the investment of consumables and the purification cost is relatively high.

[0007] Therefore, providing a purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-vaccine by E. coli expression process is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0008] In view of this, the present invention provides a purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-vaccines using Escherichia coli expression technology, which can be used to purify recombinant proteins or chicken embryo-derived antigens; it is a method for purifying Escherichia coli-derived recombinant proteins and avian embryo-derived antigens that is efficient, low-cost, and easy to operate in large-scale factory production.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0010] A purification method for preparing a multi-combination vaccine for poultry using an Escherichia coli expression process comprises the following steps:

[0011] 1) The E. coli cells collected by centrifugation were re-dissolved in PBS solution at a ratio of 1: (5-10), with the pH value of the PBS solution being 3-4; high-pressure homogenization was performed 1-3 times, and the transmittance OD was measured. 6000.1~0.5;

[0012] 2) Centrifuge the homogenized bacterial solution at 7000-12000 r / min for 20-40 min and collect the supernatant;

[0013] 3) adding ammonium sulfate to the supernatant prepared in step 2) at a ratio of 8 to 12% w / v, shaking well and placing at 2 to 8° C. overnight, then centrifuging at 7000 to 12000 r / min for 20 to 40 min, and collecting the supernatant;

[0014] 4) adding ammonium sulfate to the supernatant prepared in step 3) at a ratio of 13-18% w / v, shaking well and placing at 2-8° C. overnight, then centrifuging at 7000-12000 r / min for 20-40 min to collect the precipitate;

[0015] 5) The target protein precipitate collected after the previous pretreatment was redissolved in a PBS solution with a pH value of 3 to 4 at a ratio of 1: (5 to 10), and after it was dissolved, 0.1 to 0.3% w / v EDTA was added, and after it was completely dissolved, it was placed at 2 to 8°C overnight; then centrifuged at 7000 to 12000 r / min for 20 to 40 minutes, and the supernatant was collected;

[0016] 6) adding 0.1-0.5% w / v chitosan to the supernatant collected in step 5) to completely dissolve it, and leaving it at 2-8°C overnight; then centrifuging at 7000-12000 r / min for 20-40 min, and collecting the supernatant;

[0017] 7) Add 1% to 2% v / v Triton X-114 to the supernatant collected in step 6), shake well, and place at 2 to 8°C overnight; take out the supernatant on the next day, place in a 20 to 30°C water bath for 1 to 2 hours, then set the centrifugation temperature to 24 to 26°C, centrifuge at 7000 to 12000 r / min for 20 to 40 minutes, and collect the supernatant protein solution; the endotoxin of the target protein solution is less than 500 EU / ml;

[0018] 8) Add 0.1-0.3% v / v formaldehyde solution to the supernatant protein solution collected in step 7), the concentration of the formaldehyde solution is 35-40%, shake well and let stand at 2-8° C. for 3-7 days, then filter through 10 μm and 1 μm filters in sequence to collect the filtrate; the purpose of this step is to remove impurities.

[0019] Furthermore, the purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-vaccine by E. coli expression process is used in purifying E. coli recombinant protein.

[0020] Furthermore, the purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-vaccine by Escherichia coli expression process is used in removing endotoxin.

[0021] Furthermore, the purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-vaccine by E. coli expression process is used in purifying antigens in poultry subunit vaccines expressed by E. coli.

[0022] Furthermore, a method for purifying an avian embryo-derived antigen solution comprises the following specific steps:

[0023] (1) If the antigen is mixed with the filtrate obtained in step 8) to prepare a combined vaccine, the antigen can be mixed and stored at 2-8°C overnight, and then the antigen is centrifuged in a tubular centrifuge or a butterfly centrifuge at a speed of 5000-20000 r / min, and the antigen clarity is increased by more than 70%;

[0024] (2) For preparing pure avian embryo-derived vaccine, add 0.01-0.1% w / v EDTA, then add 0.05-0.1% w / v chitosan, stir evenly to dissolve it completely, incubate it at 2-8°C overnight, and then centrifuge the antigen in a tubular centrifuge or butterfly centrifuge at a speed of 5000-20000 r / min. The antigen clarity is increased by more than 70%.

[0025] In the previous study, the inventors of the present invention used the ammonium sulfate method combined with the liquid phase separation method to remove endotoxins, but the endotoxins could only be removed to about 3000EU / ml. It is speculated that the main reason should be that the small molecule endotoxins produced by homogenization are difficult to be removed by centrifugation. Therefore, chitosan is added to make it positively charged in an acidic environment, and the negatively charged endotoxins are adsorbed to form macromolecules, which are formed under the action of EDTA to form nanoparticles, and then removed by high-speed centrifugation; in addition, endotoxins can neutralize the negative charge on the surface under acidic conditions, reduce the rejection reaction, and easily form precipitation; based on the above two considerations, the existing process is optimized.

[0026] It can be seen from the above technical scheme that, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses a purification method suitable for preparing poultry multi-unit vaccines by E. coli expression process, creatively combining and improving various methods such as molecular adsorption precipitation method, isoelectric point precipitation method, salting-out method and liquid phase separation method, which have not been reported at home and abroad. The new method for removing endotoxins shown by the present invention is effective. In addition, a part of the protein is flocculated after formaldehyde inactivation, and after being removed by filtration, the content of foreign proteins can be significantly reduced. After being treated by the method of the present invention, the content of endotoxins in the final recombinant protein solution is no more than 500EU / mL, and the purity of the recombinant protein reaches more than 60%. In addition, a method for removing foreign proteins in avian embryo antigen solution was found during the research process, which provides a new method for purifying poultry vaccines.
