Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of bioengineering technology, and particularly relates to an application of a CHO cell line overexpressing Bag6 in the preparation of an exogenous recombinant protein with enhanced expression. Background Art
[0002] Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the predominant eukaryotic cell expression system for modern commercial production of recombinant proteins. This family of cells originated in the laboratory of Dr. Theodore T. Puck in 1957. Since CHO cells were first used in bioreactors to produce complex large-molecule biopharmaceuticals in 1971, a variety of CHO cell-derived biologics have been approved for marketing, including monoclonal antibodies, interferon, and erythropoietin. However, compared to bacterial or yeast-based expression systems, the production of biopharmaceuticals using mammalian cell expression systems remains subject to certain limitations, such as limited resistance to environmental stress, low productivity, and high culture reagent costs.
[0003] With the continuous emergence of blockbuster biopharmaceuticals, the demand for biopharmaceutical APIs has surged from grams to kilograms and even tons, requiring a simultaneous increase in target protein unit production. By leveraging methods such as large-scale cell (and culture medium) screening based on expression levels, vector design based on optimized target gene expression enhancers or promoters, and metabolic pathway-based cell engineering, researchers have increased the expression level of monoclonal antibody drug engineering cell lines from approximately one gram per liter in the 1990s to an average of three to five grams per liter in recent years, with some even reaching over ten grams per liter.
[0004] Furthermore, technologies such as safe harbor regulation based on site-specific integration, regulation of apoptosis, key factors in the cell cycle and metabolism, and factors involved in protein secretion pathways have also been used in cell engineering research and have achieved considerable progress. The application of these new technologies and methods will pave the way for rationalized CHO cell line development and advanced biomanufacturing of complex proteins.
[0005] With the development of the emerging biopharmaceutical industry, typical monoclonal antibodies are being replaced by novel drug molecules. An increasing number of complex novel protein-based drugs, such as viral antigens, recombinant trimeric subunit vaccines, and bispecific antibodies, are entering the industrial production pipeline. In many cases, these biomolecules are challenging to express, requiring tailored solutions to improve transient or stable expression yields.
[0006] Current approaches are more focused on developing highly integrated, high-throughput screening platforms to screen out more suitable cell clones, better culture media and feeds, and optimal cell culture conditions.
[0007] The CHO genome was sequenced by Xu et al. in 2011. After more than a decade of development, CHO gene annotation and other work have become increasingly sophisticated. Recent advances in multi-omics technologies, such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, have enabled the systematic analysis and characterization of important intracellular pathways and processes in bioprocessing, thereby identifying new target molecules and revealing their potential mechanisms of action. These targets can be identified through tools such as gain-of-function and loss-of-function techniques, laying the foundation for the development of superior cell-based production plants for difficult-to-express complex proteins.
[0008] However, few researchers have used safe harbor sites to improve the expression yield of recombinant proteins. Summary of the Invention
[0009] In response to the above technical problems, the present invention integrates the results of multi-omics analysis to discover potential safe harbor sites and study their effects on the expression yields of various recombinant proteins.

The application of the Bag6-overexpressing CHO cell line in the preparation of a technology for increasing the expression of exogenous recombinant proteins is to construct a stable cell line overexpressing Bag6 by infecting CHO cells with a lentivirus to overexpress the Bag6 gene.

On days 3 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 11, 800 μl Altair CHO-Feed and 80 μl CDSF36 were supplemented to maintain the glucose concentration at not less than 3 g / L. On days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, 100 μl of the culture supernatant was collected and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 3 minutes.
[0116] (7) Western blotting was used to detect the expression level of nuclease SF in the culture supernatant of CHO-K1-SF and CHO-K1-SF-Bag6.
[0117] like Figure 11 Shown is a cell growth curve of CHO-K1-Bag6 cell line in increasing the production of nuclease SF;
[0118] like Figure 12 As shown, the expression level of nuclease SF in the culture supernatant was detected by Western blotting in the CHO-K1-Bag6 cell line to improve the production of nuclease SF.
[0119] Combining the results Figure 11 and 12 It was found that the CHO-K1-Bag6 cell line could significantly increase SF nuclease by 1-5 times compared with the parental CHO-K1 cells.
[0120] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
