[0008] BACKGROUND

[0009] [3] Renewable and biodegradable polymers are of increasing interest as an alternative to petroleum-based products. To this end, considerable effort has been made to develop methods of making polymers, such as fibers, from molecules derived from plants and animals. Naturally occurring fiber-forming proteins, such as silk fibroin, have unique mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, elasticity, and biocompatibility, making them valuable for a wide range of applications, including textiles, biomedical devices, and regenerative medicine. Natural sources of fiber-forming proteins are limited by availability, ethical concerns, and environmental impact. Importantly, the extraction and purification of these naturally occurring proteins is labor-intensive and costly, hindering large-scale production and commercialization.

[0010] [4] There is a need for non-naturally occurring polypeptides that have the capability to form biodegradable fibers. There are several challenges in generating such polypeptides. First, de novo protein engineering is an uphill task, involving protein structure prediction and optimization of protein folding and expression. Second, there are challenges related to achieving the desired protein yield, functionality and post-translational modifications. Finally, the proteins must be amenable to forming fibers having the desired mechanical characteristics.

[0129] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0130]

[0087] Disclosed herein are beta strand reservoir polypeptides (BSRPs) designed de novo that are determined to form compositions exhibiting quaternary structures having mechanical and functional properties useful in a wide range of applications from textiles to biomedical devices. The polypeptides are expressed first, in a tertiary structure compatible with or advantageous for recombinant expression techniques, purified, and processed into polymers exhibiting quaternary structures. The polypeptides provide a reservoir of beta strands that may be processed such that they transition from a tertiary structure that is more reliant on intramolecular interactions to a. quaternary7structure that is more reliant on intermolecular interactions.

[0131]

[0088] As detailed below, the disclosure thus provides de novo designed and synthesized beta strand reservoir polypeptides that upon processing by the methods disclosed herein including dissolving in formic acid and spinning into fibers, e.g., as described in Examples 5 and 8, denature and refold to form a beta sheet crystalline phase.

[0132] 15

[0133] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0134]

[0089] As disclosed herein in detail, the relative ease with which the beta strand reservoir polypeptides are able to be resuspended in environmentally friendly solvents, like formic acid and the lack of gelling or other premature intermolecular association of the polypeptides within the (e.g. formic acid) dope prior to spinning are unexpected and superior properties of the beta strand reservoir polypeptides disclosed herein. Notably, solubility in formic acid is not seen in naturally occurring fibroin or spidroins. Another advantage of the disclosed BSRPs is that they can be produced without lengthy and expensive regeneration processes that require use of Lithium, Calcium, or other ionic salts, in contrast to the naturally occurring fibroin or spidroin.

[0135]

[0090] The refolding to form a beta sheet crystalline phase comprises formation of 2-dimensional beta sheets, which interact amongst each other to form 3-dimensional stacks of a plurality of 2- dimensional beta sheet polymers called beta sheet crystalline phases. In embodiments, the beta sheet crystalline phase has desired mechanical characteristics, such as, high tensile strength. In embodiments, the processing comprises denaturation of the tertiary' structure of beta strand reservoir polypeptides exhibiting more intramolecular interactions than intermolecular interactions, followed by refolding to form a beta sheet crystalline phase disclosed herein comprising a quaternary / structure exhibiting more intermolecular interactions than intramolecular interactions, as further detailed below.

[0103] As used herein ‘‘sequence identity” refers to the extent to which two optimally-aligned polynucleotides or polypeptide sequences are invariant throughout a window of alignment of components, e.g. nucleotides or amino acids. An “identity fraction” for aligned segments of a test sequence and a reference sequence is the number of identical components which are shared by the two aligned sequences divided by the total number of components in the reference sequence segment, i.e. the entire reference sequence or a smaller defined part of the reference sequence. “Percent identity” is the identity fraction times 100. The extent of identity (homology) between two sequences can be ascertained using a computer program and mathematical algorithm. Percentage identity can be calculated using the alignment program Clustal Omega, available at ebi.ac.uk / Tools / msa / clustalo using default parameters. See, Sievers et al., “Fast, scalable generation of high-quality protein multiple sequence alignments using Clustal Omega.” (2011 October 11) Molecular systems biology’ 7:539.

[0159]

[0104] As used herein, a beta strand reservoir polypeptide (BSRP), also referred to as a beta strand reservoir polymer, is a non-naturally occurring polypeptide that comprises a tertiary structure with a plurality of beta strands participating in intramolecular strand-strand interactions, which can act as a source or “reservoir” of beta strands for the formation of quaternary structures mediated by a plurality of intermol ecular beta strand-strand interactions. Without being bound by theory', it is thought that BSRPs fold, under standard protein expression conditions, into a terti ry structure that is comprised primarily of intramolecular beta strand-strand interactions as opposed to intermol ecular beta strand-strand interactions. As described herein, under appropriate processing conditions, the BSRPs can denature and refold into a quaternary / structure that is comprised primarily of intennolecular beta strand-strand interactions as compared to intramolecular beta strand-strand interactions. In embodiments, a BSRP disclosed herein has an amino acid sequence of at least about 80% identity to an amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-84.

[0160]

[0105] As used herein, a “beta strand” refers to a stretch of amino acid residues of a polypeptide (such as a BSRP) that exhibits a propensity to form a secondary / structure where the polypeptide chain is nearly linear and wherein hydrogen bonds form between carbonyl and amino groups of

[0161] 19

[0162] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0163] backbone atoms in adjacent beta strands to form beta sheets. Beta strands comprising a given beta sheet may be discontinuous in the primary sequence and can be separated by long sequences of amino acids. A beta strand within a BSRP may be identified using the program, DSSP (Define Secondary' Structure of Proteins) - 2.2.1 application MKDSSP as follows: Run mkdssp on a 3D structural model of the BSRP obtained using the in silico methods described herein. Then isolate column 5 of the mkdssp text output, which contains the per-position 8-class secondary structure assignment in each line, convert all the E and B assignments to strand (E), and discard strands that are less than 3 amino acids long by discarding all isolated occurrences of ‘E’ or ‘EE’. Further details are provided in “Dictionary' of protein secondary structure: pattern recognition of hydrogen- bonded and geometrical features” Biopolymers (1983, December) 2577-2637, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes.

[0164]

[0106] A beta strand may be identified using DSSP4 (version 4.4.10 from http s: / 7gi thub. com / PDB -REDO / dssp).

[0165]

[0107] As used herein, the DSSP4 secondary' structure of a protein structural model is the secondary structure assigned by DSSP4 (version 4.4.10 from https: / / github.com / PDB- REDO / dssp): Briefly, to assign helix, strand or loop secondary' structure to each residue using DSSP4, DSSP4 is run on the PDB file output by the modeling program, using the “-output-format dssp” flag, like so: < DSSP4 build folder> / mkdssp <model PDB file> -output-format dssp. This command will output a per-residue table, preceded by a number of header lines. The table entries are isolated, the entries in column number 5 are inspected, and assignments made as follows: strand to residues with the “E” or “B” labels, helix to the residues with the “H” and “G” labels, and loop to the residues with the “S”, “T”, “C”, or “P” labels.

[0166]

[0108] As used herein, a “beta sheet” is a secondary structural element of a polypeptide (e.g, a BSRP) comprising a plurality of beta strands, wherein adjacent beta strands interact with each other via hydrogen bonding between backbone carbonyl and amino groups, and wherein the amino acid side chains extend above and below the plane of the sheet. A beta sheet may be parallel or antiparallel. In a parallel beta sheet, the N terminus to C terminus orientation of all the beta strands forming the beta sheet is in the same direction. In an anti-parallel beta sheet, the N terminus to C terminus orientation of successive beta strands is in alternating directions. In embodiments, the

[0167] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0168] presence of beta sheets is indicated by the presence of an amide I band at around 1610-1630 cm'1(e.g, in the case of beta sheets that exhibit intermolecular interactions) or the presence of an amide I band at around 1630-1641 cm (e.g., in the case of beta sheets that exhibit intramolecular interactions), using infrared spectroscopy.

[0169]

[0109] As used herein, a “beta domain” comprises a stretch of amino acid residues of a BSRP having internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry, wherein the stretch of amino acid residues comprises a plurality of beta strands and one or more linkers, such that two beta strands are covalently joined by a linker. In embodiments, the beta domain comprises the following configuration: Lx-(S-L)y- Sz, wherein S is a beta strand and L is a linker, wherein x is 0 or 1, y is more than 4, and z is 0 or 1. In embodiments, y = 2, 3 or 4. In embodiments, all the linkers present in a beta domain are loops.

[0170]

[0110] As used herein, a “linker” refers to a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that covalently connects distinct amino acid stretches of a polypeptide (e.g, a BSRP), such as, beta strands, beta domains and / or beta solenoid motifs. The length of a linker is not limited and may be 1 or more amino acid residues long. A linker that is 6 or less amino acid residues in length is referred to herein as a loop. Typically, linkers do not exhibit any helix or strand secondary7structure that is detectable by in silico analysis, however, in embodiments, they may present a secondary' structure, including helices or strands, as detected by in silico analysis, such as, using DSSP.

[0171]

[0111] As used herein, the term “dihedral” refers to the point group symmetry of a polypeptide complex or internal pseudo-symmetry of a polypeptide monomer. A polypeptide complex is said to possess dihedral symmetry' if the monomers within the complex are mathematically related to each other via two orthogonal axes of rotational symmetry, one of which is a two-fold symmetry' axis. A polypeptide monomer is said to possess internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry7if it has multiple domains with similar or identical sequence and structure that are mathematically related to one another via two orthogonal axes of rotational symmetry', one of which is a two-fold symmetry7axis. It is important to note, as is known to those skilled in the art, that a given polypeptide monomer or complex generally exhibits small fluctuations in its structure, occupying an ensemble of states with slight variations around an energy minimum. And, in turn, a given polypeptide monomer or complex generally exhibits small deviations from perfect pseudo-

[0172] 21

[0173] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0174] symmetry or symmetry, respectively. The terms “dihedral symmetry” and “internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry” as used herein thus also refer to structures with small deviations from perfect symmetry or pseudo-symmetry, as reasonably determined by one with ordinary skill in the art. The disclosure provides beta strand reservoir polypeptides (BSRPs) that exhibit a tertiary structure with internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry'. Provided herein are beta domains that, are determined by in silico prediction and analyses to oligomerize into assemblies with dihedral symmetry'. These beta domains may be connected to each other using linkers to form a BSRP. Such a BSRP is referred to herein as having a tertiary structure with internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry.

[0175]

[0112] As used herein, a “beta solenoid motif’ is a stretch of amino acid residues of aBSRP having a beta solenoid structure comprising two beta strands of opposing direction and without backbone hydrogen bond contacts between them, separated by a loop. An illustrative beta solenoid motif is depicted in FIG.8B. In embodiments, the BSRPs having a beta solenoid structure disclosed herein comprise a plurality of beta solenoid motifs covalently joined by linkers. In embodiments, one or more beta solenoid motifs of a beta solenoid BSRP may, on in silica analysis, present as a single extended beta strand of up to around 22 amino acids, wherein the loop residues are identified by a program, such as DSSP, as having beta strand secondary' structure, despite the loop residues exhibiting an approximately 180 degree turn in the orientation of the polypeptide backbone and connecting segments of the extended beta strand that pair with neighboring strands from the two different beta sheets comprised by the solenoid. For instance, in FIG. 7B, the three beta solenoid motifs enveloped by a blue dotted rectangle are each identified as single continuous beta strands by the DSSP program because the loop, despite exhibiting an approximately 180 degree turn in the direction of the polypeptide chain and possessing a highly similar structure to the rest of the loops within the solenoid, is detected as having enough hydrogen bond pairings with backbone atoms in the neighboring loops to be designated as strand by the DSSP program.

[0176]

[0113] As used herein, a “beta sheet crystalline phase” refers to a solid crystalline material, wherein the material comprises polypeptides that form beta sheets that exhibit intermolecular interactions. Typically, the material comprises a 3-dimensional stack of a plurality of 2- dimensional beta sheets having molecular interactions between adjacent beta sheets. In embodiments, the beta sheet crystalline phase was formed by a process comprising introducing intermolecular interactions among a plurality of BSRPs disclosed herein. In embodiments, the

[0177] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0178] plurality of BSRPs have the same amino acid sequence. In embodiments, the plurality of BSRPs have different amino acid sequences. In embodiments, the beta sheet crystalline phase is a film, a fiber, a filament or the like. In embodiments, the presence of crystalline material is evaluated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), e.g., as described in Example 9. In embodiments, the presence of beta sheets that exhibit intermol ecular interactions is indicated by the presence of an amide I band at around 1610-1630 cm'1using infrared spectroscopy. In embodiments, the beta sheet crystalline phase comprises a plurality of crystallites.

[0179]

[0114] As used herein, “pLDDT” stands for “predicted Local Distance Difference Test”, which is a per-residue measure of local confidence of the polypeptide structure predicted by ColabFold and ESMFold. It is scaled from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating higher confidence. In other words, pLDDT measures confidence in the local structure, estimating how well the prediction would agree with an experimentally determined (e.g. via X-ray cry stall ography) structure. For instance, a pLDDT above 90 relates to the highest accuracy category', in which both the backbone and side chains are typically predicted with high accuracy.

[0180]

[0115] As used herein, the term “inter-sheet spacing” refers to the distance between adjacent beta sheets in a sample, as measured by Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction or Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS). Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction can be performed, for example, as described in Example 9.

[0181]

[0116] As used herein, the term “inter-strand spacing” refers to the distance between adjacent beta strands in the same beta sheet in a sample, as measured by Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction or Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS). Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction can be performed, for example, as described in Example 9.

[0182]

[0117] As used herein, the term “polymer” refers to a single covalently bonded organic macromolecular chain. In embodiments, the polymer is a polypeptide. A phase described herein may compri se a plurality of copies of the polymer.

[0183]

[0118] As used herein, a “polymer block motif’ refers to a recognizable pattern, structural arrangement, or functional unit in a polymer, analogous or equivalent to motifs in protein science, that may impart distinct physical, chemical, or biological characteristics to each block. For instance, a beta-strand motif may drive certain self-assembly or mechanical properties, whereas a 23

[0184] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0185] non-beta-strand motif (e.g., a helical region) may contribute different mechanical or functional attributes. A polymer block may comprise a motif, or plurality of motifs, which may or may not take the form of protein structural elements as described elsewhere in the disclosure here.

[0186]

[0119] As used herein, a “positive bend residue” refers to an amino acid residue characterized by DSSP4 as being bent (“S” under the “ dssp struct summary. bend” column in the DSSP4 mmCIF- formatted output) and having with positive chirality (“+” under the “ dssp struct summary. chirality” column in the DSSP4 mmCIF-formatted output).

[0187]

[0120] As used herein, a “glycine solenoid spine” is a network of residues that can be found in a given beta solenoid model such that it has the following characteristics:

[0188] i. The network edges are pairwise alpha carbon distances of 5.8 A or less ii. The network has at least 3 residues

[0121] As used herein, given a beta solenoid structure model that has one or more solenoid spines or glycine solenoid spines, a “beta solenoid hairpin” refers to a polypeptide segment that is 16 residues long and has a spine residue at position 8.

[0199]

[0122] As used herein, a “droplet drawing test” (or interchangeably referred to herein as “spinnability test”) refers to a method for assessing fiber formation or spinnability for sub¬ milligram quantities of protein or polymer, for example, in the presence of vol tile and / or corrosive organic solvents. In embodiments, the test comprises the following: A droplet (e.g., of 5 ul or less) of the solution may be placed on a flat surface, e.g., a fluorinated film surface. The droplet may be in a convective air stream, e.g., allowing the solution concentration to increase over time. A rod may be brought into contact with the surface of the droplet. The rod may be withdrawn from the droplet. Fiber formation between the rod and the droplet may be observed, e.g., optically or via a force transducer. This process may be repeated, e.g., for about 15 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated or an observed fiber is formed. The presence or absence of a fiber may be noted.

[0200] Beta strand reservoir polypeptides

[0201]

[0123] The disclosure provides non-naturally occurring polypeptides that have been designed de novo to be rich in beta strands and are referred to herein as “beta strand reservoir polypeptides”. The beta strand reservoir polypeptides (BSRPs) disclosed herein may be used to create compositions with desired structures and functions. As expressed, the beta strand reservoir polypeptides are determined based on in silico analysis to exhibit a tertiary structure comprising more intramolecular interactions than intermolecular interactions. Illustrative tertiary structure types include: (i) a structure with dihedral pseudo symmetry, (ii) a beta solenoid structure comprising beta solenoid motifs, and (iii) an anti-parallel beta sheet structure.

[0202]

[0124] In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypepti de di scl osed herein comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least 75% (for instance, about 80% about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or

[0203] 25

[0205] 100%, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween) identical to the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-84.

[0206]

[0125] BSRPs may be processed into higher order structures. Processing of a BSRP using the methods disclosed herein results in the denaturation of their determined tertiary structure followed by refolding to form a beta sheet crystalline phase comprising a quaternary structure having more intermolecular interactions as compared to the beta strand reservoir polypeptide, as shown in FIG. ID. Without being bound by theory / , it is thought that the presence of a large number of beta strands capable of promiscuous inter-strand interactions enables the beta strand reservoir polypeptides to readily transition from a tertiary structure that is more reliant on intramolecular interactions to a quaternary structure that is more reliant on intermolecular interactions.

[0207]

[0126] The proportion of beta sheets that exhibit intermolecular interactions vs. intramolecular interactions may be analyzed using infrared spectroscopy. In embodiments, the presence of an amide I band between 1610 cm'1and 1630 cm’1indicates the presence of intermolecular interactions between beta sheets. In embodiments, the amide I band is centered at or around 1624 cm’1. On the other hand, the presence of an amide I band between 1630 cm’1and 1640 cm’1indicates the presence of intramolecular interactions between beta sheets. In embodiments, the amide I band is centered at or around 1630 cm"1. Further details are provided in Hu et al., Macromolecules, Vol. 39, No. 18, 2006, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The transition from a tertiary structure that is more reliant on intramolecular interactions to a quaternary structure that is more reliant on intermolecular interactions may be assayed by observing: (i) an increase in the amide I band between 1610 cm’1and 1630 cm’1, (ii) a decrease in the amide I band between 1630 cm’1and 1640 cm'1, or (hi) both.

[0208]

[0127] The BSRPs disclosed herein therefore have the superior property of being able to form a beta sheet crystalline phase, often with desired mechanical characteristics.

In embodiments, the molecular weight of the BSRP polypeptide or a polypeptide derived therefrom is more than 1,000 kDa, 10,000 kDa, 100,000 kDa, 1x106kDa, 1x107kDa, 1x108kDa, or 1x109kDa.

[0246]

[0147] In embodiments, one or more of the beta domains in a beta strand reservoir polypeptide disclosed herein comprises or consists of about 40 amino acid residues to about 100 amino acid residues, for example, about 40 amino acids, about 45 amino acids, about 50 amino acids, about 55 amino acids, about 60 amino acids, about 65 amino acids, about.70 amino acids, about 75 amino acids, about 80 amino acids, about 85 amino acids, about 90 amino acids, about 95 amino acids or about 100 amino acids, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween. In embodiments, one or more of the beta domains comprises or consists of about 55 amino acids.

[0247]

[0148] In embodiments, each of the beta domains in a beta strand reservoir polypeptide disclosed herein comprises or consists of about 40 amino acid residues to about 100 amino acid residues, for example, about 40 amino acids, about 45 amino acids, about 50 amino acids, about 55 amino acids, about 60 amino acids, about 65 amino acids, about 70 amino acids, about 75 amino acids, about 32

[0248] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0249] 80 amino acids, about 85 amino acids, about 90 amino acids, about 95 amino acids or about 100 amino acids, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween. In embodiments, each of the beta domains comprises or consists of about 55 amino acids.

[0250]

[0149] The disclosure provides BSRPs comprising an even number of four or more polypeptide stretches referred to herein as “structural beta domains”, which have the same sequence length, are 40 to 100 amino acids in length, are all 75% identical or more to each other in terms of sequence, their sequence is less than 15% glycine, and are connected by glycine-rich (>30% glycine) peptide segments of 10 or more residues in length, also referred to herein as “linkers”.

[0251]

[0150] In embodiments, when modeled together as separate polypeptide chains, structural beta domains form a single complex with dihedral symmetry Dn, where n = # structural beta domains / 2, the pLDDT average over all modeled residues is above 70, and most residues (>50%) are part of a beta strand, wherein the beta strand is identified by DSSP4 secondary structure analysis of the model.

[0252]

[0151] In embodiments, when modeled together as separate polypeptide chains, structural beta domains form a single complex with cyclic symmetry Cn, where n = # structural beta domains, the pLDDT average over all modeled residues is above 70, and most residues (>50%) are part of a beta strand, wherein the beta strand is identified by DSSP4 secondary' structure analysis of the model.

[0253]

[0152] Without being bound by theory, it is thought that upon spinning, the residues within the structural beta domains form a beta sheet crystal line phase due to their propensity to form beta sheets. Furthermore, the fact that their sequence is repeated or highly homologous to other sequences within the BSRP contributes to the formation of the beta sheet crystalline phase without the need of different peptide chains being perfectly aligned.

[0254]

[0153] Without being bound by theory', it i s thought that the linkers, with their high gl cine content and length of 10 or more residues, impart elasticity to the spun fiber.

[0255]

[0154] Without being bound by theory, it is thought that the lower number of glycines (<15%) in the structural beta domains aids its folding into a discrete conformation that aids expression and processing.

[0256] 33

[0257] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0258]

[0155] Without being bound by theory, it i s thought that the symmetric structure that the structural beta domains form when modeled as separate chains is homologous (or similar) to one formed by the beta domains within the dihedral BSRP when expressed and dissolved in aqueous buffer. Without being bound by theory, it is thought that this conformation aids the expression of the protein and maintains the polypeptide chain in a compact soluble state that aids processing.

[0259]

[0156] As an exemplary embodiment, SEQ ID NO: 3 (pA55743) contains 8 structural beta domains, which all have 100% sequence identity amongst each other, are 55 residues in length and are 9.1% glycine (FIGs. 52A-52C). The linkers are 10 or more amino acids or long and comprise more than 30% glycine. Modeling (as described earlier for dihedral BSRPs) of the structural beta domains detected in the sequence further verifies that: 65% of residues in each structural beta domain, modeled as a complex of separate chains, are part of a beta strand identified by DSSP4 secondary structure analysis of the model (FIGs. 52D-52F). The average pLDDT over all modeled residues was calculated by inspecting the B-factor column in the output model, summing said column, and dividing by the total number of modeled residues. Inspecting the same model, it was determined if the structural beta domains are arranged in a single complex, with Dn sy mmetry or pseudosymmetry (in the case chains have non-identical sequences), where n = number of structural beta domains / 2, or Cn symmetry or pseudosymmetry (in the case chains have non-identical sequences), where n = number of structural beta domains.

[0260] (a) _ Beta Strands

[0261]

[0157] As illustrated in FIG. 1A, beta strands, along with linkers, form the building blocks of the beta strand reservoir polypeptides disclosed herein. The ability of beta strands to form inter-strand, backbone hydrogen bonds underlie the utility of beta strand reservoir polypeptides as components of a beta sheet crystalline phase. In other words, beta strands facilitate the formation of the tertiary structure of a beta strand reservoir polypeptide, as well as facilitate the formation of quaternary structures in a beta sheet crystalline phase.

[0262]

[0158] In embodiments, one or more of the beta strands in a beta strand reservoir polypeptide (BSRP), wherein the BSRP has a tertiary structure with internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry, comprises about 3 to about 10 amino acid residues, for instance, 3 amino acid residues, 4 amino 34

In embodiments, each of the beta strands in a BSRP having a tertiary structure with internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry disclosed herein comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% (for instance, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about. 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or 100%, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween) identical to the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 568-596.

[0266]

[0160] In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptide determined to exhibit a tertiary structure having internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry i s engineered such that the interaction between the N-terminus of one polypeptide and the C-terminus of another polypeptide is prevented. For instance, in embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptide is a circularized polypeptide. As used herein, a “circularized polypeptide” is a polypeptide that is engineered such that the beta strands that are at the edges of the beta sheet or sheets of one individual polypeptide are not available to interact with the edge beta strands of beta sheets from another polypeptide. As used herein, as “edge strand” is a beta strand that is on either end of a beta sheet. Typically, an edge 35

[0267] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0268] beta strand is a beta strand at or near the N-terminus or the C-terminus of the BSRP. In embodiments, however, the N- or C-terminal beta strand may fold back into the beta sheet, exposing a different beta strand as the edge strand. Circularized polypeptides may be generated via a variety of different computational design methods. Further details are provided in Sheffler el al.. Fast and versatile sequence-independent protein docking for nanomaterials design using RPXDock, PLOS Computational Biology), 2023 May 22; 19(5):el010680 and Watson et al.. De novo design of protein structure and function with RFdiffusion, Nature, 2023 Aug;620(7976): 1089-1100, the contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties for all purposes.

[0269]

[0161] Without being bound by theory, it is thought that circularization reduces or prevents interactions between the beta strands that are at the edges of the beta sheet or sheets of a polypeptide with the beta strands at the edges of the beta sheet or sheets of another polypeptide, thereby reducing the chances of formation of intermol ecular polypeptide aggregates that can be problematic for expression and / or purification.

[0388]

[0179] In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptides that are determined to exhibit a tertiary beta solenoid structure comprise an amino acid sequence that is at least 50% (for instance, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or 100%, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween) identical to the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID Os: 1, 4-14, 16-45, and 55-79.

[0389]

[0180] In embodiments, beta strand reservoir polypeptides that are determined to exhibit a tertiary beta solenoid structure comprise a capping domain at the N-terminus and / or the C-terminus. This reduces the risk of the N-terminus of one polypeptide interacting with the C-terminus of another polypeptide. As used herein, a “capping domain” is a stretch of amino acids present at the N- terminus or the C-terminus of a BSRP having a beta solenoid structure or an anti-parallel beta sheet structure disclosed herein. In embodiments, the capping domain is at least 4 or at least 5 amino acids, for instance, about 15 amino acids. In embodiments, the capping domain at the N- terminus spans from the N-terminus to the amino acid right before the first instance of the consensus beta solenoid motif found in the solenoid that the capping domain is part of. In embodiments, the capping domain at the C-terminus spans from the C-terminus to the amino acid right after the last amino acid of the most C-terminal instance of the consensus beta solenoid motif found in the solenoid that the capping domain is part of. In embodiments, the capping domain comprises a beta strand. In embodiments, the capping domain does not comprise the consensus beta solenoid motif found in the solenoid that the capping domain is part of (one of SEQ ID NOs: 1590-1600, 1602-1655). In embodiments, the length of the amino acid sequence of the capping domain is about 1% to about 30% of the length of the beta strand reservoir polypeptide. Without being bound by theory, it i s thought that the presence of a capping domain at the N-terminus and / or the C-terminus prevents interactions between the N-terminus and C-terminus of different individual beta strand reservoir polypeptides, which could be detrimental to protein expression due to the possibility of forming unbounded assemblies within the host organism or within the growth media, in the case of protein secretion.

[0390]

[0181] In embodiments, the capping domain at the N-terminus comprises an amino acid sequence having at least about 80% (for instance, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or 100%, inclusive 55

[0393]

[0182] In embodiments, the capping domain at the C -terminus comprises an amino acid sequence having at least about 80% (for instance, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or 100%, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween) identity to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1709-1774. In embodiments, the capping domain at the C-terminus comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1709-1774.

[0394]

[0183] In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptides disclosed herein fold into anti¬ parallel beta sheets. In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptide that is determined to exhibit an anti-parallel beta sheet structure comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least 50% (for instance, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or 100%, inclusive of all values and subranges that lie therebetween) identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15. In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptide that is determined to exhibit an anti-parallel beta sheet structure comprises a beta strand comprising an amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 739, 738, 2101, 2102, 735, 736, 846, 845, 844, 737, 1060, and 2153. Without being bound by theory, it is thought that the formation of the beta solenoid vs. anti-parallel beta sheet structure might be promoted by the different linker sequences.

[0395]

[0184] In embodiments, the beta strands associate to form one anti-parallel beta sheet. In embodiments, the beta strand reservoir polypeptide comprising an anti-parallel beta sheet structure comprises: (L - S - L - S)x--- L, wherein L is a linker, S is a beta strand, x > 2, and the L - S - L - S comprises about 18 to about 92 amino acids in length.

A solution comprising beta strand reservoir polypeptides may be produced, for example by stirring the proteins into formic acid (e.g., to a concentration of about 40wt% of protein in acid). A syringe may be used to draw up the solution. The syringe (e.g, a 1 mL syringe) may comprise a dispensing tip of 22-25 gauge (e.g., 22 gauge) and / or a length of about 0.5-1.5 inch. The syringe may be placed onto a syringe pump. The syringe pump may be placed above a coagulation bath, so that the syringe tip has an air gap between 0.5 and 5mm, e.g., 1-3 mm. The coagulation bath may be chosen from, e.g., methanol, water, or a mixture of alcohol and water. The solution may be expelled from the syringe, e.g., at a rate of 1.4 pL / hr to 3.2 niL / min, e.g., 0.5-3.2 niL / min, thereby producing spun fibers in the coagulation bath. The fibers may be removed from the coagulation bath and allowed to dry, e.g, in a laboratory’ hood after hanging with tension.

[0851]

[0264] Wet-spun fibers may be stretched. For instance, a sample may be hand stretched or drawn, e.g., to about 2x or about 3x its original length. The drawn fiber (or an unstretched fiber) may be dried in a vacuum oven, e.g., at about 180 mbar, at about 150°C, for about. 30 minutes. The same diving process may also be used for an unstretched fiber.

[0852]

[0265] In embodiments, a beta sheet crystalline phase described herein may be readily recycled. For instance, the beta sheet crystalline phase may be subjected to denaturation in a solvent, and then restructured. In embodiments, the beta sheet crystalline phase is subjected to a first round of 124

[0853] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0854] denaturing and restructuring, a second round of denaturing and restructuring, and optionally a third or more rounds of denaturing and restructuring. In embodiments, a beta sheet crystalline phase described herein does not experience a loss of mechanical properties during a denaturation and restructuring procedure, or experiences a loss of mechanical properties that is superior to a silk undergoing the same process.

[0855] Methods of Testing Fibers Comprising a Beta Sheet Crystalline Phase

[0856]

[0266] The present disclosure provides, for instance, methods for assessing fiber formation for sub-milligram quantities of protein or polymer in the presence of volatile and / or corrosive organic solvents. The disclosure also provides, for instance, methods for automation of testing to enable screening large numbers or protein sample candidates.

[0857]

[0267] In a droplet drawing test, a protein solution may be evaluated for fiber forming or spinnability as follows. A solution of protein in a volatile organic solvent may be provided, e.g., by dissolving the protein in the solvent. A droplet (e.g., of 5 ul or less) of the solution may be placed on a flat surface, e.g., a fluorinated film surface. The droplet may be in a convective air stream, e.g., allowing the solution concentration to increase over time. A rod may be brought into contact with the surface of the droplet. The rod may be withdrawn from the droplet. Fiber formation between the rod and the droplet may be observed, e.g., optically or via a force transducer. This process may be repeated, e.g., for about 15 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated or an observed fiber is formed. The presence or absence of a fiber may be noted.

[0860] EXAMPLES

[0861]

[0268] The following examples, which are included herein for illustration purposes only, are not intended to be limiting.

[0862] Example 1: De Novo Design and Engineering of BSRPs Determined to Exhibit a Tertiary Structure Having Internal Dihedral Psendo-Symmetry

[0863]

[0269] Beta domains were designed using ProteinGenerator, which can be directed to create protein backbones with specific secondary structure content (for further details, see Lisanza, el al., “Multislate and functional protein design using RoseTTAFold sequence space diffusion”, Nat Biotechnol 1-11 (2024), the contents of which are incorporated by reference in its entirety). ProteinGenerator was set up to produce protein homodimers with a high percentage of beta-strand content. Thousands of homodimers were generated and filtered using various filter metrics available within a customized software package built on top of the Rosetta macromolecular modeling suite (for further details, see Leman, et al. “Macromolecular modeling and design in Rosetta: recent methods and frameworks”, Nat Methods 17, 665-680 (2020), the contents of which are incorporated by reference in its entirety). RF diffusion was used to create C2 symmetric dimers, which were used as input for RPXdock to obtain dihedral multimers (for further details, see Watson, et al. “De novo design of protein structure and function with ^diffusion”, Nature 620, 1089-1100 (2023) and Sheffler, et al. “Fast and versatile sequence-independent protein docking for nanomaterials design using RPXDock”, PLOS Computational Biology 19, el010680 (2023), the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety).

[0864]

[0270] Sequences for the dihedral multimer backbones were generated using ProteinMPNN (for further details, see Dauparas, et al. “Robust deep learning-based protein sequence design using ProteinMPNN”, Science eadd2187 (2022), the contents of which are incorporated by reference in its entirety). ProteinMPNN takes as input the 3D structure of only the backbone, and outputs a user-specified number of sequences of equal length which the model believes have high likelihood of folding into the input structure. In addition to the backbone, input w'as provided to ProteinMPNN specifying various parameters, including “temperature”, which controls how sequences are sampled.

[0865] 126

[0866] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0867]

[0271] Resulting sequences were validated in silico using Colabfold for structure prediction using default parameters, with the following changes: A) the sequence prediction was carried out with the input sequence only, B) no template was searched for or used, C) only the top three of the five prediction models was used, D) only the top model as ranked by average pLDDT was minimized. Once a Colabfold-based model is produced for each beta domain sequence, the per-position metric pLDDT was used to rank designs. Designs with high average pLDDT (>70) were manually inspected to ensure that, the high-confidence structure model had the intended dihedral symmetry (e.g. D4 or De).

[0868]

[0272] Next, the beta domains in a multimer model (e.g. eight or twelve beta domains in the case of D4 or De multimers, respectively) were linked using a polypeptide linker selected from a pre¬ specified set of linker sequences, for example, any one or more of SEQ ID NOs: 122-125, 128- 139 and 146, to obtain a single polypeptide sequence, that is: a BSRP with a tertiary / structure having internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry. In some cases, further in silico validation was carried out for the resulting BSRPs as discussed above. BSRPs that showed high pLDDT (average value >70) for beta domains were selected for cellular expression. In some instances, the resulting BSRPs were again used as input for ProteinMPNN as discussed above. In some instances, the linkers of the BSRPs were changed while retaining the same beta domains to generate new BSRPs.

[0869]

[0273] The amino acid sequences of the BSRPs determined to exhibit a tertiary structure having internal dihedral pseudo-symmetry are set forth in Table 1. The DSSP (Define Secondary Structure of Proteins) program was used to identify the beta strands within each of these BSRPs.

[0870] Example 2: De Novo Design and Engineering of BSRPs Determined to Exhibit a Tertiary Beta Soienoid Structure

[0871]

[0274] 'KP diffusion was used to generate BSRPs with beta solenoid tertiary structures.

[0872]

[0275] Capping domains were generated using diffusion or a combination of diffusion and ProteinGenerator to add residues to the N- and C -termini of the beta solenoid structures described above. The capping domains were designed to prevent the ends of the BSRP from forming intermolecular beta strand-beta strand interactions.

[0873]

[0276] To generate sequences that, fold into the beta solenoid structure, ProteinMPNN was used as described in Example 1 above. In most cases the repetitive pattern of beta strands was enforced 127

[0874] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0875] by providing ProteinMPNN with specifications to make certain positions always have the same amino acid identity. Resulting sequences were validated in silica using Colabfold for structure prediction as described above.

[0876]

[0277] Once a Colabfold-based model was produced for each candidate sequence, the per-position metric pLDDT was used to rank designs. Designs with high average pLDDT (>70) were manually inspected to ensure that the high-confidence model had a beta solenoid structure and were identified as BSRPs with a tertiary beta solenoid structure. In some instances, linkers from a pre¬ specified set of linker sequences, for example, any one or more of SEQ ID NOs: 122-125, 128- 139, and 146, were inserted in the one or more loops connecting the beta strands of the beta solenoid polypeptides.

[0877]

[0278] The resulting sequences were validated in silica using pLDDT values as described above. In a subset of cases, the resulting BSRPs were used as backbone input to ProteinMPNN. In some instances, the linkers of the BSRPs were changed while retaining the same beta strands to generate new BSRPs. The amino acid sequences of the beta strand reservoir polypeptides (BSRPs) exhibiting a beta solenoid structure based on in silica analysis are set forth in Table 2. The DSSP (Define Secondary Structure of Proteins) program was used to identify the beta strands within each of these BSRPs.

[0878]

[0279] Additionally, an N-terrninal methionine was added for protein expression if not already present and, in some cases - (i) one or two ‘GW’ or ‘W’ peptides were added to the C -terminus to improve the ability to quantify the protein via 280nm light absorbance; (ii) a ‘SWTWENGKWTWK’ peptide (SEQ ID NO: 164) was added to the C-terminus to improve the ability to quantify the protein via 280nm light absorbance; (iii) a tag was added to the N- or C- terminus, together with a short linker, and / or (iv) a tag was added to the C-terminus, together with flanking short linkers (GSGS (SEQ ID NO: 167) or GGGSGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 1145)).

[0879] Example 3: Expression and Purification of Beta strand reservoir polypeptides

[0880]

[0280] The 82 BSRPs listed in Tables 1 and 2 and SEQ ID NO 15 and 84 were encoded in nucleic acid sequences SEQ ID NOs: 1061-1142, 2848 and 2849. Host cells were engineered to express each of the 83 BSRPs fused to an N-terminal ‘MHHHHHHGSGS (SEQ ID NO: 1144), C-terminal ‘GSGSHHHHHH’ (His-tag; SEQ ID NO: 161), and / or other tags, including those in 128

[0881] 332001245 v1Attorney Docket No.: ARZE-046 / 01WO 311023-2246

[0882] SEQ ID NO: 159-173 as detailed in Table 11 A. Due to the repetitive nature of the target DNA sequences, modular cloning strategies, such as Golden Gate assembly, were used. The polypeptides were purified using metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) purification. In some cases, the protein purification process involved the use of acids such as formic acid and acetic acid to prevent aggregation of the target proteins.
