Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of synthetic biology and biotechnology, and in particular to a rapidly assembled and modified immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region locus and an assembly method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Antibodies are produced by plasma cells after the proliferation and differentiation of B lymphocytes from mammalian bone marrow under antigen stimulation. They are a general term for secretory immunoglobulins (Ig) that can specifically bind to corresponding antigens. The germline loci of mammalian immunoglobulins (Immunoglobulin, Ig) are composed of variable regions (variable region, V) and constant regions (constant region, C). The variable region (VH) of the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus is composed of variable (Variable, V), diversity (Diversity, D) and joining (Joining, J) gene segments; while the variable region (VL) of the antibody light chain locus only has V and J gene segments. The germline genes of Ig exist as separated V, D, J and C gene segments. Only after gene rearrangement to form VDJ (LGH) or VJ (IGL) connection, and then connected with the C gene segment, can a complete and functional immunoglobulin be encoded. In the early development of B cells, after recombination activating gene (RAG) recognizes the conserved rearrangement signal sequence (RSS) at both ends of the Ig germline gene locus V, D and J gene segments, it splices the variable region of the Ig germline gene into only one VDJ combination (VDJ rearrangement) through DNA double-strand break and repair. After rearrangement, the VDJ segment is transcribed together with the downstream C segment (IGHM and IGHD) to form diverse antibodies. Therefore, VDJ rearrangement is the most important mechanism for the production of antibody diversity and the basis for the body's immune system to produce specific antibodies against different antigens.
[0003] The variable region of the human Ig germline heavy chain locus is about 1.3Mb long, of which the V gene region is about 0.9Mb, and is composed of 55 functional gene fragments and 50 non-functional gene fragments. The length of the non-functional gene fragment accounts for about 66% of the entire V gene region. Directed transformation of the natural Ig germline heavy chain locus, deletion of non-functional gene fragments or increase of functional gene fragments is an important means to study the mechanism of V(D)J rearrangement and the mechanism of antibody diversity production, and is also the key to building a new generation of humanized antibody mouse platform. Given that each functional V gene fragment is up to 3.5kb long, including the coding region, upstream promoter, RSS sequence and proximal CTCF site sequence, its sequence structure is complex. When it is necessary to construct an artificial chromosome with up to 50 V gene fragments in the order of in vivo, it is necessary to establish an efficient long-fragment DNA assembly technology.
[0004] Directed modification of natural Ig germline loci, rearrangement of natural gene clusters in a predetermined order, further modification of specific regulatory elements within the loci, or addition or deletion of specific gene fragments, etc., is an important means to study the V(D)J rearrangement mechanism and the mechanism of antibody neutralization activity and affinity generation. Although the development of de novo double-stranded DNA synthesis technology has made recombinant DNA engineering more flexible, due to technical limitations, the length of the synthesized fragment is usually 200-2000kb.
[0005] Gibson assembly is a molecular biology technique for constructing recombinant DNA. It was first proposed and published by Daniel G. Gibson and others at the University of California, Ireland. Since then, the technique has been improved and expanded to become an important tool in the fields of synthetic biology and molecular biology. Usually, the Gibson assembly process first requires adding homologous fragments to the ends of DNA fragments, and then incubating these DNA fragments with a mix (containing three enzymes) for one hour before transforming competent cells. This mix contains three different types of enzymes: 1) an exonuclease that digests DNA from the 5' end to produce sticky ends that are easy to pair with other homologous ends. 2) a polymerase that is used to repair gaps. 3) a DNA ligase that achieves seamless splicing to form a complete DNA molecule. Gibson assembly technology is also suitable for the assembly of multiple fragments. Compared with the traditional segment-by-segment construction method, Gibson assembly technology can complete the construction of multiple fragments in one step.
[0006] At present, the conventional Gibson assembly technology faces at least the following common technical difficulties in assembling long DNA fragments: (1) Each gene fragment to be assembled is too long and contains a lot of highly repetitive sequences, which makes it difficult to design specific primers and perform conventional PCR; (2) The number of gene fragments to be assembled is large, and it takes a lot of time and effort to assemble them in sequence according to the conventional process; (3) Although the conventional Gibson assembly technology can connect up to 6 fragments at a time, the inserted fragment is only tens to hundreds of bp, and the final assembly product is only at the 1-10kb level; and when the assembled gene fragments are long and numerous, conventional backbone vectors are difficult to carry. Summary of the invention

[0084] IGH: immunoglobulin heavy chain gene.
[0085] IGHV: immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region.
[0086] In some embodiments of the present invention, a method for designing, modifying and efficiently assembling immunoglobulin variable region loci based on Gibson assembly is disclosed, comprising the following steps:
[0087] (1) Design specific primers and use a BAC library containing human IGHV as a template to amplify 10 IGHV gene fragments of approximately 3.5 kb in length by high-fidelity PCR;
[0088] (2) Synthesizing five human IGHV gene fragments with complex sequence structures, each of which is approximately 3.5 kb long;
[0089] (3) The universal vector pUC19 was transformed into a subcloning vector and named pMIGH (plasmid Modified Immunoglobin Heavy); the above-mentioned single IGHV gene fragment was cloned into pMIGH, and DNA sequencing was performed to verify that the sequence of the IGHV gene fragment was correct;
[0090] (4) Using the Gibson seamless cloning technique, multiple IGHV genes were sequentially assembled into a BAC-grade vector to obtain an artificial chromosome containing 15 functional human immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region loci.
[0091] The amplified or synthesized functional IGHV gene fragments have the following characteristics: each IGHV gene is about 3.5 kb long, including a coding region, a rearrangement signal sequence (RSS) and a regulatory element region (including a promoter element and polyadenylation).
[0092] Among them, the optimized Gibson seamless cloning technology is used to assemble multiple long gene fragments at the same time. The specific implementation steps are:

(3) Efficient assembly of 6 IGHV fragments: pCC1BAC-IGHV1-V3 was linearized using restriction endonucleases, and the preferred restriction endonuclease was NotI; at the same time, pCC1BAC-IGHV4-V6 was digested with two restriction endonucleases, and the preferred restriction endonuclease combination was NheI and I-CeuI. pCC1BAC-IGHV1-V6, which was arranged in the order of the in vivo IGHV loci, was obtained by Gibson assembly. Similarly, pCC1BAC-IGHV7-V12 and pCC1BAC-IGHV13-V15 were obtained.
