Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application entitled “A Self-Aggregating Immunoglobulin Fc Region” filed with the State Intellectual Property Office on August 23, 2023, with application number 202311072501.6, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the field of antibody engineering, and in particular, to a self-aggregating immunoglobulin Fc region. Background Art

[0004] Immunoglobulin (Ig) is composed of four polypeptide chains, each of which is connected by a varying number of interchain disulfide bonds. Ig can be in a "Y"-shaped structure, called an Ig monomer, which is the basic unit of antibodies. Natural Ig molecules contain four heterologous polypeptide chains, of which the two chains with larger molecular weight are called heavy chains (H), and the two chains with smaller molecular weight are called light chains (L). The amino acid composition of the two heavy chains and the two light chains in the same Ig molecule is exactly the same. The molecular weight of the heavy chain is 50,000 to 75,000, and it is composed of 450 to 550 amino acid residues. Due to the different amino acid composition and arrangement order of the heavy chain constant (CH region), its antigenicity is also different. Based on this, Ig can be divided into five classes, namely IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA and IgE. Among these five classes, IgG is a monomer structure. IgM is a basic antibody secreted by B cells. In the secretory form, it is mainly a pentamer composed of five Y-shaped monomers, which has extremely high affinity. IgM has a very large molecular weight, so it is very effective in antigen agglutination reactions. IgM is a multivalent antibody. Since a monomer antibody has 2 antigen binding sites, IgM has 10 or 12 antigen binding sites and is a multivalent antibody.

[0005] With the advancement of science and technology, in vitro diagnosis has become an important helper in clinical medical diagnosis, playing the role of the doctor's eyes. Immunodiagnostic reagents are a subdivision of in vitro diagnostic reagents. Immunodiagnosis is the application of immunological theories, techniques and methods to diagnose various diseases and determine immune status. Immunodiagnostic methods include radioimmunoassay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, chemiluminescence, fluorescence chromatography or colloidal gold chromatography. One of the main challenges in developing immunodiagnostic reagents is to obtain antibodies that strongly bind to antigens.

[0006] One of the most effective methods used in nature to achieve strong binding between antigens and their antibodies is through multivalent interactions. For example, naturally occurring IgM antibodies bind to antigens very tightly and efficiently, despite their relatively weak antigen-binding affinity in monomeric form. When more than one interaction occurs between two molecules, this functional affinity of multiple antibody-antigen interactions may be several orders of magnitude higher than the intrinsic affinity of a single antibody-antigen interaction. A variety of antibody multivalent engineering technologies have been developed, including domain swapping, linear fusion, chemical ligation, self-association, and heterodimerization. The development of an efficient self-polymerizing Fc region is of great significance for the preparation of high-performance multivalent antibodies. Summary of the invention

[0059] Example 1 Preparation of polynucleotide encoding IgM heavy chain constant region

[0060] In the present application, the polynucleotide encoding the antibody constant region can be obtained from peripheral blood cell DNA by PCR, or can be obtained from a hybridoma cell line secreting a corresponding type of monoclonal antibody by PCR.

[0061] 1.1 Obtaining of polynucleotides encoding the CH region of murine IgM

A polynucleotide of about 1.4 kb was obtained by PCR technology and introduced into the pMD-18T vector for sequencing confirmation.

[0066] The polynucleotide encodes the mouse IgM-CH region, and its amino acid sequence from N-terminus to C-terminus is as follows:

[0068] A polynucleotide encoding the CH2-CH3-CH4 domain of the mouse IgM CH region was prepared in a similar manner (the underlined portion of SEQ ID NO: 3 is CH2-CH3-CH4).

[0069] Example 2 Construction of expression plasmid for IgG / IgM hybrid recombinant antibody

[0070] The source of IgG antibody is not limited. In this embodiment, the IgG antibody used is anti-cTnI 2E7 antibody, and the heavy chain and light chain sequences of the antibody are shown in SEQ ID NO: 10 and SEQ ID NO: 11, respectively.

[0071] The IgM sequence itself has the characteristics of a polymer. First, the polynucleotide encoding the IgG segment 1 of the 2E7 antibody was connected to the polynucleotide encoding the CH2-CH3-CH4 of mouse IgM by bridge PCR. The amino acid sequence of the IgG segment 1 of the 2E7 antibody is as follows:

[0073] The polynucleotide obtained by PCR was double-digested with HindIII / EcoRI and ligated to pcDNA cut with the corresponding restriction enzymes. TM 3.4 The resulting vector was named pcDNA3.4A-2E7Rmb-F1.

[0074] The polynucleotide encoding the IgG segment 3 of the 2E7 antibody was selected and connected to the polynucleotide encoding the CH2-CH3-CH4 of mouse IgM by bridge PCR. The amino acid sequence of the IgG segment 3 of the 2E7 antibody is as follows:

Connect to pcDNA TM 3.4 vector, referred to as pcDNA3.4A-2E7Rmb3.

[0076] The polynucleotide encoding the IgG segment 4 of the 2E7 antibody was selected and connected to the polynucleotide encoding the CH2-CH3-CH4 of mouse IgM by bridge PCR. The amino acid sequence of the IgG segment 4 of the 2E7 antibody is as follows:

[0078] Ligation of the polynucleotide encoding the IgG heavy chain of 2E7 into pcDNA TM 3.4 vector, referred to as pcDNA3.4A-2E7 control, as the control antibody.

[0079] Since the multimerization property of IgM depends on the heavy chain, the light chain sequence of the antibody in this example is the same as the light chain of the above-mentioned anti-cTnI2E7 antibody (shown in SEQ ID NO: 11).
