Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a recombinant type III humanized collagen and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention, and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0003] Collagen is the most abundant and widely distributed functional protein in mammals, accounting for 25% to 30% of the total protein. At present, about 29 different types of collagen have been identified. According to the order of discovery of collagen, it can be divided into type I, type II, type III, etc. Among them, type III collagen is the main collagen in human skin, fascia, and tendons. It is distributed at the junction of the epidermis and dermis, providing elasticity and stress resistance to the skin. In addition, type III collagen is present in high levels in blood vessels. With its good mechanical properties, it maintains the strength and tension of blood vessels and promotes the formation of new blood vessels. It is also effective in promoting wound damage repair and activating coagulation factors to promote coagulation mechanisms. However, with the increase of age, type III collagen continues to accelerate its loss and cannot be regenerated by itself. In recent years, with the gradual deepening of functional activity research, type III collagen has been used as a key raw material in medical cosmetology, medical devices, beauty skin care, food applications and other fields.

[0004] Different collagens can be divided into animal-derived collagen and recombinant collagen according to their sources. Collagen obtained from animal connective tissue has product quality differences due to animal-derived viruses and individual differences in animals, which to a certain extent limits the application and development of new products. Recombinant collagen is a non-natural collagen synthesized by genetic engineering technology. It has higher biological activity and biocompatibility, lower immunogenicity, lower risk of missed pathogens, better water solubility, and can be further processed and optimized. Therefore, its application range is wider and has received strong attention from the market. Most of the recombinant collagen that has been commercialized comes from microbial expression systems; the expression hosts are mainly Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris. However, the expression level of recombinant collagen from Escherichia coli is generally low, and the various fusion tags contained in the protein sequence may affect the activity of the protein itself, and most of the expressed recombinant collagen cannot form a triple helix structure.

The experimental methods used, if not specifically described, are conventional methods. The strains, cells, materials, reagents, etc. used, unless otherwise specified, were obtained from commercial sources.

[0058] Example 1: Recombinant humanized collagen sequence design

[0059] The amino acid sequence of human type III collagen α1 chain protein (GenBank: KAI2526099.1) was obtained from the NCBI database. Through in-depth mining and analysis of the sequence information, and using a variety of technical means such as bioinformatics, the charge characteristics, hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of amino acids and the three-dimensional spatial structure of proteins were simulated and designed, aiming to ensure that the recombinant collagen maintains high biological activity while achieving higher expression efficiency and optimizing its triple helix structure.

[0060] The recombinant humanized collagen in this embodiment has a total of 180 amino acids, and the specific amino acid sequence is shown in SEQID NO.1. The sequence does not contain any exogenous amino acids such as tags, and includes multiple biologically active sites of human type III collagen. It has high biocompatibility and low risk of use, thereby effectively ensuring the realization of the biological function of the recombinant collagen.

[0061] Example 2: Construction of recombinant E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15

[0062] Based on the codon preference of E. coli, the coding gene of the recombinant humanized collagen shown in SEQ ID NO.1 in Example 1 was codon optimized, and the optimized coding gene nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.2, which is named F15. The nucleotide sequence of F15 was commissioned to be synthesized by BGI and cloned into the E. coli expression vector pET28a, and then transformed into E.coil TOP10. While ensuring that the reading frame did not shift, the recombinant expression plasmid pET28a-F15 was obtained. The recombinant expression plasmid pET28a-F15 was successfully constructed through DNA sequencing comparison.

[0063] The verified recombinant expression vector pET28a-F15 was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) according to the E. coli operation guide. The recombinant expression transformants were screened using kanamycin antibiotics and further verified by PCR. The recombinant bacteria E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15 expressing recombinant humanized collagen was successfully constructed.

[0064] Example 3: Induced expression of recombinant E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15

[0065] A single colony was picked from the recombinant E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15, placed in LB liquid medium (1% NaCl, 0.5% yeast extract, 1% peptone) containing 50 μg / mL kanamycin, cultured overnight at 37°C and 200 rpm, and then inoculated into TB medium (1.18% peptone, 2.36% yeast extract, 0.94% K+-1) at a 2% (v / v) inoculum. 2 HPO 4 , 0.22% KH 2 PO 4 , 0.4% glycerol) and continue to culture at 37°C, 200 rpm until OD 600is 0.7. At this time, add IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactoside) with a final concentration of 0.5mM to the culture medium to induce protein expression, and culture at 25°C for 16 hours. After that, collect the bacteria by centrifugation, resuspend the bacteria in Tris buffer (20mM Tris, pH7.5) and perform ultrasonic disruption. The supernatant and precipitate after disruption were respectively subjected to SDS-PAGE detection. According to theoretical prediction, the molecular weight of the recombinant humanized collagen should be 15.6kDa. The results of SDS-PAGE are shown in the figure. Figure 1 As shown, there is an obvious protein expression band near 15.6 kDa. The above results show that the recombinant humanized collagen in this example has been successfully induced to express.

[0066] Example 4: High-density culture of recombinant E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15 in 5L tank

[0067] The recombinant E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15 was cultured at high density in a 5L tank. The bacterial solution in the glycerol tube was inoculated into 60mL seed medium (1% peptone, 1% sodium chloride, 0.5% yeast powder) containing 50μg / mL kanamycin at an inoculum of 1‰, and cultured at 37°C and 180rpm for about 15h. The cultured seed liquid was transferred entirely into a 5L fermentation tank containing 3L fermentation medium (3% yeast powder, 1.5% glycerol, 3.25% ammonium sulfate, 0.2% sodium chloride, 1.0% disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate, 0.31% potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 0.17% magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 0.02% defoamer, 0.43% trace elements, pH adjusted to 7.0 with sodium hydroxide; 500mL trace element formula: 1.625g boric acid, 0.275g manganese sulfate monohydrate, 0.3325g cupric chloride dihydrate, 0.1375g zinc sulfate monohydrate, 0.211g cobalt chloride, 0.1735g sodium molybdate).

[0068] The initial fermentation parameters were set as follows: stirring speed 150rpm, fermentation temperature 37℃, ventilation 4L / min, dissolved oxygen was adjusted in conjunction with stirring and controlled at 20%, and pH was controlled at 7.0 by automatically adding ammonia water during the fermentation process. When the dissolved oxygen returned to 35%, feeding was started (feed medium formula: 3% ammonium sulfate, 0.22% magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 30% glycerol, 0.5% trace elements), the initial feeding rate was 0.8mL / min, and the dissolved oxygen was adjusted to 20% by increasing the ventilation volume. When OD 600After the temperature reaches 80, 0.5mM IPTG is added, the temperature is adjusted to 25°C, the dissolved oxygen is controlled at about 30%, and the induction time is 10-20h. After entering the induction time, samples are taken regularly, and the fermentation broth is subjected to SDS-PAGE detection. The grayscale values ​​of the standard protein and the recombinant humanized collagen are determined by BioAnaly biological analysis software. It is calculated that when the recombinant bacteria E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15 is induced by high-density fermentation in a 5L tank for 15h, the recombinant humanized collagen production is 8.6g / L, achieving a high expression efficiency of the recombinant humanized collagen.

[0069] Example 5: Purification and preparation of recombinant humanized collagen

[0070] The recombinant bacteria E.coil BL21 / pET28a-F15 was fermented in a 5L tank at high density. The fermentation liquid after 15 hours of induction culture was centrifuged at 8000 rpm to obtain bacterial sludge. The bacterial sludge was purified by the following steps to obtain pure recombinant humanized collagen:

[0071] (1) Protein removal: The bacterial solution obtained after resuspending the bacterial slurry to homogenize the bacteria is adjusted to pH 6.5 with low concentration HCl. The bacterial solution is continuously stirred during the acid addition process to denature and precipitate the recombinant humanized collagen;

[0072] (2) Centrifugation: remove the impurities precipitated by acid and adjust the pH of the supernatant to 7.0 with low concentration NaOH;

[0073] (3) Hollow fiber membrane clarification: The centrifugal supernatant obtained in step (2) is filtered through a 250 KDa hollow fiber membrane to remove bacteria and macromolecular impurities;

[0074] (4) Ultrafiltration membrane concentration: Use a 5KDa ultrafiltration membrane to concentrate the feed solution and remove small molecular impurities;

[0075] (5) Ion exchange chromatography: Anion exchange chromatography is used. Recombinant humanized collagen is positively charged. When the sample is loaded on the chromatography column, the flow-through is directly collected. Negatively charged impurities such as impurities such as miscellaneous proteins are adsorbed on the column to achieve the purpose of removing impurities. The obtained flow-through is the purified stock solution. The purity of the protein purified by the above steps is greater than 95%, and the yield is greater than 60%.

[0076] Example 6: Effects of recombinant humanized collagen on cell proliferation and migration

[0077] Effect of recombinant type III collagen F15 on promoting cell proliferation: The results of the CCK-8 method experiment showed that the cell proliferation rates of ESF cells at final concentrations of 0.5 mg / mL and 1.0 mg / mL were 117.3% and 121.8%, which were significantly higher than those of the negative control group (1× maintenance medium), and it is believed that it has a certain effect on promoting ESF cell proliferation.

[0078] The promoting effect of recombinant type III collagen F15 on cell migration: The results of the cell scratch experiment showed that the 24-hour wound healing percentage of the negative control group (NC) was 55.7%, and the 24-hour wound healing percentages (Wound Closure%) of the 0.1 mg / mL and 0.2 mg / mL recombinant type III collagen sample groups were significantly greater than that of the negative control group (NC), approximately 68.8% and 80.5%, respectively. It is believed that the 0.1 mg / mL and 0.2 mg / mL recombinant type III collagen sample groups both have a significant effect in promoting HaCaT wound healing.

[0079] Example 7: Barrier repair experiment

[0080] Human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) were collected and cell suspension was prepared with high-glucose DMEM cell culture medium. 2 mL of cell suspension was added to each well of a 6-well plate. The cell number was 2.5 × 10 5 / well. The experiment set up a blank control group (control group 1), a commercially available recombinant collagen control group (control group 2), and a recombinant humanized collagen F15 group prepared in Example 5 of the present invention (experimental group), with 3 replicate wells in each group. The 6-well plate was placed in a cell culture incubator (37°C, 5% CO 2 ) for 24 hours. When the cell fusion rate reaches 50% to 60%, the culture medium is discarded. 2 mL of high-glucose DMEM cell culture medium is added to each well of the blank control group; 2 mL of high-glucose DMEM cell culture medium containing the corresponding collagen is added to each well of the other two groups. The concentration of collagen in the high-glucose DMEM cell culture medium is 1 mg / mL. The 6-well plate is placed in an incubator (37°C, 5% CO 2 ) for 24 h, and then each well was washed twice with 2 mL of PBS buffer. According to the Total RNA extraction kit, 1 mL of RNAisoPlus was added, and the cells were lysed by blowing and collecting samples. According to the instructions of the kit, RNA extraction, reverse transcription and fluorescence quantitative PCR detection experiments were carried out to detect the relative expression of mRNA of barrier-related protein filaggrin (FLG). -△△CT Method to calculate.

[0081] The ability of different collagens to promote the mRNA expression of FLG in HaCaT cells Figure 4As shown, compared with the blank control group (control group 1), the commercially available recombinant collagen (control group 2) and the recombinant humanized collagen F15 prepared in Example 5 of the present invention (experimental group) can significantly increase the relative expression of FLG mRNA, among which the recombinant humanized collagen prepared by the present invention has a stronger ability to promote the mRNA expression of FLG than the commercially available recombinant collagen. Therefore, the recombinant humanized collagen of the present invention has obvious skin barrier repair function.

[0082] Example 8: Collagen Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy Experiment

[0083] The obtained recombinant collagen F15 pure product was dissolved in ultrapure water to prepare a solution with a concentration of 0.1 mg / ml. Before spectral analysis, baseline correction was required to remove any system noise or other non-sample related signals. CD detection was performed with a detection wavelength of 180-260 nm.

[0084] The circular dichroism characteristics of collagen triple helix: there is a negative absorption peak near 200nm; there is a weak positive absorption peak near 220nm. The circular dichroism detection diagram of the recombinant collagen F15 in this application is as follows Figure 5 As shown, there is a negative absorption peak at 197nm and a weak positive absorption peak at 218nm, which is consistent with the absorption characteristics of the triple helix.
