Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the fields of synthetic biology, protein engineering, tumor targeted therapy, and the like, and particularly relates to a programmable and controllable protein targeted degradation system and a target protein degradation control device, and construction and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Proteins, as the main participants of life activities, their expression and degradation are the basis for maintaining cell function and supporting physiological function, and are precisely regulated by the cell's own regulatory network. Abnormal expression of proteins can lead to the occurrence and development of related diseases, such as some malignant tumors. Therefore, interfering with the expression and function of proteins is not only a major strategy for studying protein function in basic research, but also an effective means for preventing and treating diseases caused by abnormal proteins.
[0003] In the field of synthetic biology, the research on changing the function of biomolecules through design, modification and recombination has become one of the increasingly popular directions. In recent years, with the rapid development of synthetic biology, more and more research focuses on proteins, a kind of biological macromolecules. In mammalian synthetic biology, through the redesign of these biomolecules, the modification of cell function can be achieved, bringing new research value and direction in basic biology and disease treatment.
[0004] Current protein interference technologies can be divided into three aspects: DNA level, RNA level and post-translational level. Although methods such as CRISPR / Cas9 at the DNA level and RNAi at the RNA level are rapid, efficient and highly applicable, they have some limitations due to their direct action on the DNA or RNA level, such as off-target effects, non-universality and inability to act on long-lived proteins.
[0005] There are some natural high-efficiency protein degradation pathways in mammalian cells to realize the accurate regulation of the levels of various proteins in cytoplasm and nucleus, including ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, lysosomal degradation, autophagic degradation and other processes. Among them, the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is an extremely important protein selective degradation pathway in eukaryotic cells, which is responsible for about 80% of endogenous protein degradation in cells. At present, through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway to degrade target proteins to explore the influence of proteins on physiological functions and diseases has become a hot research field, and technologies such as PROTACs, deGradFP degradation technology, AID and Trim-Away have brought new directions for disease treatment. However, these protein degradation technologies based on ubiquitin-proteasome cannot accurately regulate the degradation speed and time, nor can they achieve specific and selective degradation of target proteins. At the same time, the degradation effect of these degradation technologies on population cells is not good enough, and these problems directly limit the subsequent disease treatment. In order to overcome these limitations, it is urgent to invent a controllable, specific and efficient high-speed targeted degradation system, which can be used for basic research and clinical application research. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the above existing protein interference technology, the present application innovatively proposes a mammalian cell modularly controllable protein targeted degradation method and system and device, taking blue light, abscisic acid, Danoprevir and / or MK-5172 as inducers, based on the modified protein ΔTrim21, and taking the modified protein ΔTrim21 degradation system as the basis, by introducing and modifying a controllable protein dimerization system to control the binding of the target protein and the modified protein ΔTrim21, the mammalian cell modularly controllable protein targeted degradation is carried out.
[0007] In specific embodiments, taking blue light, abscisic acid and two clinical small molecules Danoprevir and MK-5172 as inducers, and taking ΔTrim21 degradation system as the chassis, different modularly controllable protein targeted degradation methods are carried out.
[0008] The present application first proposes a mammalian cell different modularly controllable protein targeted degradation system / device, which is based on the ΔTrim21 degradation system and constructs a modularly controllable degradation system, including but not limited to: a blue light modular degradation system, an abscisic acid modular degradation system, a DNCR2 modular degradation system regulated by the clinical small molecule Danoprevir, and / or a GNCR1 modular degradation system regulated by the clinical small molecule MK-5172.
[0009] In the present application, the "modular regulation" refers to the combination of the ΔTrim21 degradation system and four different inducer-responsive proteins, resulting in four different regulatory degradation systems. Although each of the four systems is independently regulated, they have 70% common parts (ΔTrim21 degradation system). By replacing different responsive proteins, the common parts remain unchanged, and different inducers can be responded to trigger regulatory degradation. Therefore, it is called "modular". Preferably, the present application includes four modular regulation methods.
[0010] In the present application, the protein degradation system / device is constructed by splitting and recombining the controllable protein dimerization system and the ΔTrim21 domain to form two regulatory modules, i.e., a target protein recognition module and an E3 ubiquitinase-based degradation module.
[0011] In specific embodiments, the controllable protein dimerization system includes any regulatory protein dimerization system or device, such as the blue light-regulated pMag / nMag system, the abscisic acid-regulated ABI / PYL1 system, the clinical drug Danoprevir-regulated DNCR2 / NS3a system, and the clinical drug MK-5172-regulated GNCR1 / NS3a system.
[0012] It should be noted that in the present application, "wild-type Trim2" refers to the natural E3 ubiquitinase Trim21 protein. In the present application, "engineered protein ΔTrim21" refers to a mutant recombinant protein with better E3 ubiquitination degradation effect, which is obtained by deleting the b-box domain from the natural E3 ubiquitinase Trim21 protein based on the reasonable design of the present application. In the present application, the "engineered protein ΔTrim21 degradation system" is an improved protein degradation system based on the engineered protein ΔTrim21 and the reported technology Trim21-Away. The mechanism of action is that, for example, after the exogenous reporter protein Reporter binds with its Fc antibody, ΔTrim21 binds with the reporter protein-antibody complex through its PRYSPRY domain to form a trimer. The trimer is specifically degraded by the ubiquitin proteasome pathway under the guidance of the RING domain of ΔTrim21. When ΔTrim21, reporter protein Reporter or its Fc antibody is consumed, the degradation is automatically terminated.
[0013] In specific embodiments, the preferred two target protein degradation control systems / devices are ChemΔ2Trim-TPD and OptoΔ2Trim-TPD, which enable programmable activation of target protein degradation in cells and animals triggered by chemicals (ABA, GZV, DNV) and light.

[0015] The application first provides a new modified protein Δ2Trim21, wherein the modified protein Δ2Trim21 refers to ΔTrim21 protein of a ΔTrim21 degradation system being further modified to delete a PRYSPRY domain so as to achieve the effect of regulating protein degradation, and is named as Δ2Trim21.
[0016] In an embodiment, a protein structure diagram of the modified protein Δ2Trim21 is shown in the figure, which comprises a RING and a coiled-coil two protein domain structure, and the modified protein Δ2Trim21 is reduced by about 50% compared with wild-type Trim21. Figure 1 In an embodiment, the Δ2Trim21 is formed by deleting a PRYSPRY domain on the basis of ΔTrim21. The PRYSPRY domain is a binding domain of an IgG-Fc fragment, and the protein is reduced by about 50% compared with wild-type Trim21.
[0017] The RING domain is a ubiquitin binding domain, and the Δ2Trim21 is connected with a ubiquitin binding enzyme E2 through the RING domain. The conserved cysteine and histidine residues of the RING domain are embedded in the core of the domain, and the conformation of the whole domain is maintained by coordinating two zinc ions. Other semi-conserved amino acid residues in the domain mainly form a hydrophobic core or participate in the recruitment of other proteins. Compared with general zinc finger structures, the coordination sites of the two zinc ions in the RING domain are staggered to form a rigid spherical scaffold to facilitate protein-protein interaction.
[0018] The coiled-coil domain is a coiled-coil dimerization domain structure, and the Δ2Trim21 exists in a homodimer form in a solution through the coiled-coil domain.
[0019] Each amino acid sequence in the application can be prepared by an artificial synthesis method.

Figure 10 The specific steps are as follows:
[0141] The first step is plasmid construction. Details of plasmid construction in this example are shown in Table 1.
[0142] The second step is cell culture. Before tumor formation, B16F10 cells are cultured. Luc Cells were cultured and expanded in DMEM complete medium until each mouse carried 5 × 10⁶ cells. 5 Total number of cells.
