Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of immunodiagnosis, and in particular to an antibody pair, a reagent and a method for detecting dengue virus. Background Art

[0002] Dengue fever is an acute infectious disease caused by dengue virus (DENV), and is one of the most widely spread mosquito-borne infectious diseases in the world. Dengue virus belongs to the genus Flavivirus of the family Flaviviridae, and is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, and is widely prevalent in more than 100 tropical and subtropical countries and regions around the world. Dengue virus can cause mild febrile reactions, dengue fever, to more serious dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and life-threatening dengue shock syndrome (DSS). At present, there is no vaccine or effective treatment for human use, and the harm caused by dengue virus has become a serious global public health problem.

[0003] Traditional microscopic examination methods are time-consuming and laborious and require high technical staff. Although the dengue virus diagnosis method based on the PCR principle has the highest sensitivity and specificity, it is limited by equipment requirements and professional technicians. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a fast, simple and accurate dengue virus detection method. Detecting dengue virus by immunodiagnosis is an effective method for determining dengue virus. After long-term research, the inventors found that for dengue virus detection, the sandwich pairing of antibody raw materials is the key to realizing dengue virus immunodetection in addition to the antibody raw materials themselves.

[0056] The complementarity determining regions are defined by any one of the Kabat, Chothia, IMGT, AbM or Contact systems or a combination of multiple systems.

[0057] In the present invention, the term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense, and the antibody in the method of the present invention may be a whole antibody, or an antigen-binding fragment or a polymerized antibody capable of binding to dengue virus.

[0058] The whole antibody may be monoclonal. Such a whole antibody is usually an antibody made by any suitable method known in the art. For example, by immunizing a mammal, usually a rabbit or a mouse, with dengue virus under suitable conditions and isolating antibody molecules from, for example, the serum of the mammal. Monoclonal antibodies can be obtained by hybridoma or recombinant methods. The antigen-binding fragment includes an antigen-binding site, such as a Fab or F(ab)2 fragment. In an optional embodiment, the antigen-binding fragment is selected from any one of F(ab')2, Fab', Fab, Fv and scFv of the antibody. The antigen-binding fragment of the above-mentioned antibody usually has the same binding specificity as the antibody from which it is derived. It is easy for a person skilled in the art to understand that the antigen-binding fragment of the above-mentioned antibody can be obtained by methods such as enzymatic digestion (including pepsin or papain) and / or by chemical reduction splitting disulfide bonds. On the basis of the structure of the complete antibody disclosed in the present invention, it is easy for a person skilled in the art to obtain the above-mentioned antigen-binding fragment. The antigen-binding fragment of the above-mentioned antibody can also be synthesized by recombinant genetics techniques also known to a person skilled in the art or by, for example, an automatic peptide synthesizer, such as an automatic peptide synthesizer sold by Applied BioSystems. Polymeric antibodies refer to polymers formed by the polymerization of whole antibodies and antigen-binding fragments.

[0059] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antibody pair for detecting dengue virus, the antibody pair comprising a first antibody, a second antibody and a third antibody; the first antibody has HCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:1, HCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:2, HCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:3, LCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:4, LCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:5, and LCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:6; the second antibody has HCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:13, HCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:14, HCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:15, LCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:16, LCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:17, and LCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:18; the third antibody has HCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:25, HCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:26, HCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:27, LCDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO:28, LCDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO:29, and LCDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO:30.

[0060] In the present invention, the term "complementarity determining region", "CDR" or "CDRs" refers to the highly variable region of the heavy and light chains of immunoglobulins, and refers to the region containing one or more or even all of the major amino acid residues that play a role in the binding of an antibody or antigen-binding fragment to its recognized antigen or epitope. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, CDRs refers to the highly variable region of the heavy and light chains of the antibody.

[0061] The definition methods of CDR are well known in the art, and the CDR definition methods include: Kabat definition, Chothia definition, IMGT definition, Contact definition and AbM definition. As described herein, "Kabat definition" refers to the definition system described in Kabat et al., US Pept. of Health and Human Services, "Sequence of Proteins of Immunological Interest" (1983). "Chothia definition" refers to Chothia et al., J Mol Biol 196: 901-917 (1987). There are other CDR definition methods that may not strictly follow one of the above schemes, but will still overlap with at least a portion of the CDR region defined by Kabat, although they may be shortened or extended based on predictions or experimental results of specific residues or residue groups. Exemplary defined CDRs are listed in Table 1 below, and the annotations in different documents are slightly different. Given the variable region amino acid sequence of an antibody, a person skilled in the art can routinely determine which residues contain a specific CDR. It should be noted that CDRs defined by other methods not limited to Table 1 also belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0064] 1 The numbering of all CDR definitions in Table 1 is based on the Kabat numbering system (see below), with the amino acid numbering on the heavy chain represented by "H+number" and the amino acid numbering on the light chain represented by "L+number". One of ordinary skill in the art can unambiguously map the Kabat numbering system to any variable region sequence without relying on any experimental data other than the sequence itself. As used herein, "Kabat numbering" refers to the numbering system described by Kabat et al., U.S. Patent. of Health and Human Services, "Sequence of Proteins of Immunological Interest" (1983).

[0065] 2 "AbM" as used in Table 1 with a lowercase "b" refers to CDRs defined by Oxford Molecular's "AbM" antibody modeling software.

[0072] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3, LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3 are defined by the IMGT system.

[0073] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3, LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3 are defined by the AbM system.

[0074] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3, LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3 are defined by a Contact system.

[0075] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3, LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3 are defined by a combination of Kabat, Chothia, IMGT, AbM or Contact systems.

[0076] The antibodies of the present invention also include a framework region. In the present invention, the "framework region" or "FR" region includes a heavy chain framework region and a light chain framework region, and refers to the region other than CDR in the heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region of the antibody; wherein the heavy chain framework region can be further subdivided into adjacent regions separated by CDRs, comprising HFR1, HFR2, HFR3 and HFR4 framework regions; the light chain framework region can be further subdivided into adjacent regions separated by CDRs, comprising LFR1, LFR2, LFR3 and LFR4 framework regions.

[0079] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antibody pair for detecting dengue virus.

[0080] The antibody pair comprises a first antibody having a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:9 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:11; the antibody pair comprises a second antibody having a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:21 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:23; the antibody pair comprises a third antibody having a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:33 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:35.

[0081] In an optional embodiment, the antibody pair comprises a first antibody having a heavy chain as shown in SEQ ID NO: 10 and a light chain as shown in SEQ ID NO: 12; the antibody pair comprises a second antibody having a heavy chain as shown in SEQ ID NO: 22 or 38 and a light chain as shown in SEQ ID NO: 24; the antibody pair comprises a third antibody having

[0082] The heavy chain shown in SEQ ID NO:34 or 39 and the light chain shown in SEQ ID NO:36.

[0083] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antibody pair for detecting dengue virus, the antibody pair comprising a first antibody, the heavy chain variable region of the first antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:9, and the light chain variable region of the first antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:11; the antibody pair comprising a second antibody, the heavy chain variable region of the second antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:21, and the light chain variable region of the second antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:23; the antibody pair comprises a third antibody, the heavy chain variable region of the third antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:33, and the light chain variable region of the third antibody being a conservative variant formed by a mutation of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:35.

[0084] The conservative variant refers to a mutant in which the amino acid at the mutation site is replaced by an amino acid with the same chemical properties as the original amino acid.

[0085] The mutation is the addition, deletion, replacement or modification of one or more amino acids in the framework region of the first antibody, the second antibody and the third antibody.

[0086] In a fifth aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antibody pair for detecting dengue virus, the antibody pair comprising a first antibody, the first antibody binding to an epitope, and the epitope is the same as the epitope bound by an antibody comprising a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:9 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:11; the antibody pair comprises a second antibody, the second antibody binding to an epitope: the epitope is the same as the epitope bound by an antibody comprising a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:21 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:23; the antibody pair comprises a third antibody, the third antibody binding to an epitope, the epitope is the same as the epitope bound by an antibody comprising a heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:33 and a light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO:35.

[0087] The epitope is also called an antigen epitope (AE). The epitope determines the ability of the antigen to specifically bind to the antibody. The antibody binds to the same epitope, that is, the amino acid fragments that the antibody binds to the target antigen are consistent. Whether an antibody recognizes the same epitope as other antibodies can be confirmed by competition between the two for the epitope. Competition between antibodies can be evaluated by competitive binding assays, and the methods include: ELISA, fluorescence energy transfer assay (FRET) or fluorescence microassay technology (FMAT). The amount of the antibody bound to the antigen is indirectly related to the binding ability of the candidate competing antibody (tested antibody) that competes for the same epitope. That is, the greater the binding amount or affinity of the tested antibody to the same epitope, the lower the binding amount of the antibody to the antigen, and the greater the binding amount of the tested antibody to the antigen. Specifically, the antibody and the antibody to be evaluated that have been appropriately labeled are added to the antigen at the same time, and the antibody bound is detected by the label. By pre-labeling the antibody, the amount of the antibody bound to the antigen can be easily determined. There is no particular limitation on the label, and the labeling method corresponding to the measurement technology is selected. Specific labeling methods include: fluorescent labeling, radioactive labeling, enzyme labeling, etc.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the antibody further comprises a constant region, wherein the heavy chain constant region is selected from any one of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, IgM, IgE, and IgD, or a combination of multiple constant regions; and the light chain constant region is selected from a κ-type or λ-type light chain constant region. The λ-type light chain constant region can be selected from λ1, λ2, λ3, and λ4 subtypes.

[0089] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the constant region sequence can have at least 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% identity with the above-mentioned constant region (SEQ ID NO: 7, 8, 19, 20, 31, 32 or 37).

[0090] In an alternative embodiment, the heavy chain constant region includes CH1 of IgG1, hinge region of IgG1, CH2 of IgM, CH3 of IgM and / or CH4 of IgM;

[0091] In an optional embodiment, the species of origin of the constant region is cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, goats, rats, mice, dogs, cats, rabbits, donkeys, deer, minks, chickens, ducks, geese or humans;

[0092] In an optional embodiment, the antibody is a multimer formed by polymerization of antibody monomers.

[0096] It should be noted that the meaning of reagent in this application and the meaning of kit can be regarded as equivalent to each other.

BD SMART TMThe RACE cDNA Amplification Kit was purchased from Takara. The pMD-18T vector was purchased from Takara. The plasmid extraction kit was purchased from Tiangen. Primer synthesis and gene sequencing were completed by Invitrogen. The hybridoma cell line secreting dengue virus monoclonal antibody was an existing hybridoma cell line, which was revived for use.

[0120] (1) Antibody gene preparation

[0121] mRNA was extracted from the hybridoma cell line secreting dengue virus monoclonal antibodies, and the DNA product was obtained by RT-PCR. The product was inserted into the pMD-18T vector after A addition reaction with rTaq DNA polymerase and transformed into DH5α competent cells. After the colonies grew, the Heavy Chain and Light Chain gene clones were taken respectively, and 4 clones each were sent to a gene sequencing company for sequencing.

[0122] (2) Sequence analysis of dengue virus antibody variable region genes

[0123] The gene sequences obtained by the above sequencing were placed in the kabat antibody database for analysis, and the VNTI11.5 software was used for analysis to determine that the genes amplified by the heavy chain and light chain primer pairs were correct. Among the gene fragments amplified by the Light Chain, the VL gene sequence was approximately 320bp, and there was a 57bp leader peptide sequence in front of it; in the gene fragments amplified by the Heavy Chain primer pair, the VH gene sequence was approximately 360bp, belonging to the VH1 gene family, and there was a 57bp leader peptide sequence in front of it.

[0124] (3) Construction of recombinant antibody expression plasmid

[0125] pcDNA TM 3.4 vector is a recombinant antibody eukaryotic expression vector constructed, which has introduced multiple cloning restriction sites such as HindIII, BamHI, and EcoRI, and is named pcDNA3.4A expression vector, hereinafter referred to as 3.4A expression vector; according to the sequencing results of the antibody variable region genes in the above pMD-18T, the VL and VH gene-specific primers of the antibody are designed, with HindIII, EcoRI restriction sites and protective bases at both ends, respectively, and the Light Chain gene fragment and the Heavy Chain gene fragment are amplified by PCR amplification method.
