Abstract
Description
A recombinant hirudin with tyrosine sulfate, its preparation method and its uses Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering technology, specifically relating to a recombinant hirudin with tyrosine sulfate, its preparation method, and its uses. Background Technology
[0002] Hirudin, a polypeptide extracted from the salivary glands of leeches, can specifically bind to thrombin to prevent thrombus formation and has been developed as an effective anticoagulant. The FDA has approved recombinant hirudin and its derivatives, such as bivalirudin, lepirudin, and desirudin, primarily for the prevention of complications in thromboembolic diseases, prevention of arterial thrombosis after surgery, and prevention of thrombus formation after thrombolysis or angiogenesis. However, as polypeptide biological drugs, conventional recombinant hirudin and its derivatives have a short half-life in vivo after administration via gastrointestinal injection. Frequent injections to achieve an anticoagulant effect in clinical patients pose a risk of infection; bleeding is a common side effect of anticoagulants in clinical use. Therefore, the development of a long-acting formulation is extremely important.
[0003] Hirudin is the most potent known natural thrombin inhibitor and is widely used clinically for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, its application in the medical field is severely limited by the low yield and high extraction cost of natural hirudin. Currently available recombinant hirudin has only one-tenth the efficacy of natural hirudin. The main reason for this difference is that natural hirudin is a short peptide composed of 63-65 amino acids, with a functional domain consisting of three disulfide bonds at its N-terminus. The tyrosine residue at position 63 of the C-terminus is modified by tyrosyl protein sulfotransferase (TPST) in the Golgi apparatus of the cell, forming a sulfonated tyrosine residue. This tyrosine sulfation modification is crucial for hirudin activity. Without this modification, most bioengineered hosts cannot complete the post-translational modification reaction of hirudin, resulting in a significant reduction in the activity of recombinant hirudin lacking sulfonation compared to natural hirudin. Furthermore, since most commercially available recombinant hirudin products are derived from engineered E. coli or yeast, they lack post-translational modification capabilities. Microalgae, as a novel type of chassis organism, possess this function, undergoing sulfation modification on 87Tyr, resulting in higher activity than recombinant hirudin products derived from other yeast, E. coli, and other sources.
[0004] Studies have shown that TPST exists only in higher plants, animals, and microalgae. Traditional plant and microbial production systems each have their limitations: plant systems, while possessing post-translational modification capabilities, are greatly affected by the growing environment, have poor gene expression stability, and have long growth cycles and occupy arable land; microbial systems suffer from problems such as endotoxins and inclusion bodies, and most microorganisms lack post-translational modification capabilities, resulting in limited protein synthesis. In contrast, microalgae have advantages such as rapid growth, clear genetic background, ease of transformation and expression of exogenous genes, and contain TPST enzymes, making them suitable for the expression and production of recombinant hirudin. Currently, in the expression and production of recombinant hirudin, there is no known technical route that uses algae as a host, relies on genetic engineering and metabolic engineering, and induces the secretion of heterologous target proteins by introducing exogenous genes. Recombinant hirudin generated based on this technical route has the characteristic of natural hirudin with sulfation of the tyrosine residue at position 63 of the C-terminus, and has great application potential and economic value.

[0092] Example 2, Inferior vena cava thrombosis model
[0093] Direct oral administration of recombinant hirudin-containing algal powder from *Chlamydomonas reinhardtii* obtained through fermentation showed that after modeling, mice administered wild-type algal powder had significantly larger thrombi, which appeared dark red to the naked eye. The thrombi of mice administered small-scale (5L) and pilot-scale (2T) fermented *Chlamydomonas reinhardtii* recombinant hirudin-containing algal powder were significantly smaller and more transparent than those of untreated mice. This indicates that administration of *Chlamydomonas reinhardtii* recombinant hirudin-containing algal powder has a significant anticoagulant effect, as shown in Figure 4.
[0094] Example 3: Testing the effect of recombinant hirudin from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in a mouse model – thrombus weight
[0095] Figure 5 shows: A. Inferior vena cava of mice. The control group received oral administration of wild-type Chlamydomonas reinhardtii algal powder (a), and the experimental group received oral administration of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii recombinant hirudin algal powder (b). The results showed that thrombus formation occurred in the inferior vena cava of mice under ligation in the control group (a), while oral administration of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii recombinant hirudin algal powder inhibited thrombus formation in the inferior vena cava of mice under ligation (b); B. Statistical data on the weight of thrombi in the inferior vena cava of mice. The control and experimental groups were the same as in Figure A. The statistical data for mice came from three independent replicate experiments, with data for the control and experimental groups corresponding to 25 mice each. Statistical data showed a significant difference in the weight of inferior vena cava thrombi between the control and experimental groups (p<0.0001). In the control group, all mice formed thrombi (100%), while the thrombus formation rate in the experimental group was approximately 20% (and the weight of the formed thrombi was much smaller than that in the control group). Approximately 80% of the mice in the experimental group did not form observable and measurable thrombi. The statistical data further confirmed that oral administration of recombinant hirudin from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii significantly inhibited the formation of inferior vena cava ligation thrombi in mice (B).
[0096] Example 4: Comparison of adverse drug reactions of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii recombinant hirudin and its derivatives—platelet count
[0097] The comparison of thrombocytopenia in mice is shown in Figure 6. Gray bars indicate thrombocytopenia controlled within 35% or no reduction before and after drug treatment. Blue bars indicate thrombocytopenia ranges from 35% to 65% before and after drug treatment. Red bars indicate thrombocytopenia exceeding 65% before and after drug treatment. The results show that in the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii-derived recombinant hirudin group, all mice (100%) showed no or minimal thrombocytopenia before and after treatment. Heparin and bivalirudin caused significant thrombocytopenia, while Chlamydomonas reinhardtii-derived recombinant hirudin did not cause significant thrombocytopenia and had a weak effect on platelets.
[0098] Example 5: Comparison of adverse drug reactions—bleeding—of recombinant hirudin from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and its derivatives.
[0099] The comparison of bleeding in mice is shown in Figure 7. Autopsy results showed that no bleeding occurred in the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii-derived recombinant hirudin group. The bleeding rates in the heparin and bivalirudin groups both exceeded 10% (and the bleeding was severe, including subcutaneous and visceral bleeding). The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii-derived recombinant hirudin does not activate the fibrinolytic system, and adverse bleeding reactions are rare (currently, the bleeding rate is 0%).
[0100] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
