HEPATITIS C ASSAY UTILIZING RECOMBINANT ANTIGENS TO NS1
This is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. Serial No. 07/572,822, filed August 24, 1990 and U.S. Serial No. 07,614,069, filed November 7, 1990, which enjoy common ownership and are incorporated herein by reference. This application also is related to co-filed patent applications entitled "HEPATITIS C ASSAY UTILIZING RECOMBINANT ANTIGENS FROM NS5 REGION"(U. S. Serial No. 748,565) and "HEPATITIS C ASSAY UTILIZING RECOMBINANT ANTIGENS TO C-100 REGION"(U. S. Serial No. 748,566) which enjoy common ownership and are incorporated herein by reference.
This invention relates generally to an assay for identifying the presence in a sample of an antibody which is immunologically reactive with a hepatitis C virus antigen and specifically to an assay for detecting a complex of an antibody and recombinant antigens representing distinct regions of the HCV genome. Recombinant antigens derived from the molecular cloning and expression in a heterologous expression system of the synthetic DNA sequences representing distinct antigenic regions of the HCV genome can be used as reagents for the detection of antibodies and antigen in body fluids from individuals exposed to hepatitis C virus (HCV). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Acute viral hepatitis is clinically diagnosed by a well-defined set of patient symptoms, including jaundice, hepatic tenderness, and an increase in the serum levels of alanine am inotransf erase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase.
Additional serologic immunoassays are generally performed to diagnose the specific type of viral causative agent. Historically, patients presenting clinical hepatitis symptoms and not otherwise infected by hepatitis A, hepatitis B, Epstein-Barr or cytomegalovirus were clinically diagnosed as having non-A non-B hepatitis
(NANBH) by default. The disease may result in chronic liver damage.
Each of the well-known, immunologically characterized hepatitis-inducing viruses, hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and hepatitis D virus
(HDV) belongs to a separate family of viruses and has a distinctive viral
organization, protein structure, and mode of replication.
Attempts to identify the NANBH virus by virtue of genomic similarity to one of the known hepatitis viruses have failed, suggesting that NANBH has a distinct organization and structure. [Fowler, et al., J. Med. Virol., 12:205-213 (1983) and Weiner, et al., J. Med. Virol., 21 :239-247 (1987)].
Progress in developing assays to detect antibodies specific for NANBH has been particularly hampered by difficulties in correctly identifying antigens associated with NANBH. See, for example, Wands, J., et al., U.S. Patent 4,870,076, Wands, et al., Proc, Nat' I, Acad, Sci., 83:6608-6612 (1986), Ohori, et al., J. Med. Virol., 12:161 -178 (1983), Bradley, et al., Proc. Nat'I, Acad, Sci., 84:6277- 6281 , (1987), Akatsuka, T., et al., J. Med, Virol, 20:43-56 (1986), Seto, B., et al. , U.S. Patent Application Number 07/234,641 (available from U.S. Department of Commerce National Technical Information Service, Springfield, Virginia, No. 89138168), Takahashi, K., et al., European Patent Application No. 0 293 274, published November 30, 1988, and Seelig, R., et al., in PCT Application
PCT/EP88/00123.
Recently, another hepatitis-inducing virus has been unequivocally identified as hepatitis C virus (HCV) by Houghton, M., et al., European Patent Application publication number 0 318 216, May 31 , 1989. Related papers describing this virus include Kuo, G., et al., Science, 244:359-361 (1989) and Choo, Q., et. al, Science, 244:362-364 (1989). Houghton, M., et al. reported isolating cDNA sequences from HCV which encode antigens which react immunologically with antibodies present in patients infected with NANBH, thus establishing that HCV is one of the viral agents causing NANBH. The cDNA sequences associated with HCV were isolated from a cDNA library prepared from the RNA obtained from pooled serum from a chimpanzee with chronic HCV infection. The cDNA library contained cDNA sequences of approximate mean size of about 200 base pairs. The cDNA library was screened for encoded epitopes expressed in clones that could bind to antibodies in sera from patients who had previously experienced NANBH.
In the European Patent Application, Houghton, M., et al. also described the preparation of several superoxide dismutase fusion polypeptides (SOD) and the use of these SOD fusion poiypeptides to develop an HCV screening assay. The most complex SOD fusion polypeptide described in the European Patent Application, designated c100-3, was described as containing 154 amino acids of human SOD at the aminoterminus, 5 amino acid residues derived from the expression of a synthetic DNA adapter containing a restriction site, EcoRI, 363 amino acids derived from the expression of a cloned HCV cDNA fragment, and 5 carboxyl terminal amino acids derived from an MS2 cloning vector nucleotide sequence. The DNA sequence encoding this polypeptide was transformed into yeast cells using a plasmid. The transformed cells were cultured and expressed a 54,000 molecular weight polypeptide which was purified to about 80% purity by differential extraction.
Other SOD fusion poiypeptides designated SOD-NANB5-1-1 and SOD- NANB81 were expressed in recombinant bacteria. The E.coli fusion poiypeptides were purified by differential extraction and by chromatography using anion and cation exchange columns. The purification procedures were able to produce SOD- NANB5- 1 -1 as about 80% pure and SOD-NAN38, as about 50% pure.
The recombinant SOD fusion poiypeptides described by Houghton, M., et al, were coated on microtiter wells or polystyrene beads and used to assay serum samples. Briefly, coated microtiter wells were incubated with a sample in a diluent. After incubation, the microtiter wells were washed and then developed using either a radioactively labelled sheep anti-human antibody or a mouse antihuman IgG-HRP (horseradish peroxidase) conjugate. These assays were used to detect both post acute phase and chronic phase HCV infection.
Due to the preparative methods, assay specificity required adding yeast or E.coli extracts to the samples in order to prevent undesired immunological reactions with any yeast or E.coli antibodies present in samples.
Ortho Diagnostic Systems Inc. have developed a immunoenzyme assay to detect antibodies to HCV antigens. The Ortho assay procedure is a three-stage test for serum/plasma carried out in a microwell coated with the recombinant yeast/hepatitis C virus SOD fusion polypeptide c100-3.
In the first stage, a test specimen is diluted directly in the test well and incubated for a specified length of time. If antibodies to HCV antigens are present in the specimen, antigen-antibody complexes will be formed on the microwell surface.
If no antibodies are present, complexes will not be formed and the unbound serum or plasma proteins will be removed in a washing step.
In the second stage, anti-human IgG murine monoclonal antibody horseradish peroxidase conjugate is added to the microwell. The conjugate binds specifically to the antibody portion of the antigen-antibody complexes. If antigen-antibody complexes are not present, the unbound conjugate will also be removed by a washing step.
In the third stage, an enzyme detection system composed of o- phenyienediamine 2HCI (OPD) and hydrogen peroxide is added to the test well. If bound conjugate is present, the OPD will be oxidized, resulting in a colored end product. After formation of the colored end product, dilute sulfuric acid is added to the microwell to stop the color-forming detection reaction.
The intensity of the colored end product is measured with a microwell reader. The assay may be used to screen patient serum and plasma.
It is established that HCV may be transmitted by contaminated blood and blood products. In transfused patients, as many as 10% will suffer from post- transfusion hepatitis. Of these, approximately 90% are the result of infections diagnosed as HCV. The prevention of transmission of HCV by blood and blood products requires reliable, sensitive and specific diagnosis and prognostic tools to identify HCV carriers as well as contaminated blood and blood products. Thus, there exists a need for an HCV assay which uses reliable and efficient reagents and methods to accurately detect the presence of HCV antibodies in samples.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides an improved assay for detecting the presence of an antibody to an HCV antigen in a sample by contacting the sample with at least one recombinant protein representing a distinct antigenic region of the HCV genome.
Recombinant antigens which are derived from the molecular cloning and expression of synthetic DNA sequences in heterologous hosts are provided. Briefly, synthetic DNA sequences which encode the desired proteins representing distinct antigenic regions of the HCV genome are optimized for expression in E.coli by specific codon selection. Specifically, recombinant proteins representing five distinct antigenic regions of NS1 of the HCV genome are described. The proteins are expressed as chimeric fusions with E.coli CMP-KDO synthetase (CKS) gene. The first protein, expressed by plasmid pHCV-77 (identified as SEQ. ID. NO. 1) represents amino acids 365-579 of the HCV sequence of NS1 and, based on analogy to the genomic organization of other flaviviruses, has been named HCV CKS-NS1S1.
Note that the term pHCV-77 will also refer to the fusion protein itself and that pHCV-77' will be the designation for a polypeptide representing the NS1 region from about amino acids 365-579 of the HCV sequence prepared using other recombinant or synthetic methodologies. Other recombinant methodologies would include the preparation of pHCV-77', utilizing different expression systems. The methodology for the preparation of synthetic peptides of HCV is described in U.S. Serial No. 456,162, filed December 22, 1989, and U.S. Serial No. 610,180, filed November 7, 1990, which enjoy common ownership and are incorporated herein by reference. The next protein is expressed by plasmid pHCV-65, identified as SEQ. ID. NO. 2, and represents amino acids 565-731 of the NS1 region of the HCV genome, pHCV-65 has been named HCV CKS-NS1S2 and is expressed by the plasmid pHCV-65. The fusion protein itself will also be referred to as pHCV-65 and pHCV- 65' shall be the designation for a polypeptide from the NS-1 region representing from about amino acids 565-731 of the HCV sequence prepared using other recombinant or synthetic methodologies. The next recombinant antigen represents amino acids 717-847 of the NS1 region of the HCV sequence, and is expressed by the plasmid pHCV-78 (identified by SEQ. ID. NO. 3). The fusion protein will be referred to as pHCV-78 and pHCV-78' shall be the designation for a polypeptide from the NS1 region representing from about amino acids 717-847 of the HCV sequence prepared using other recombinant or synthetic methodologies. It has been designated clone HCV CKS-NS1S3 based on the strategy used in its construction. Figure 44 illustrates the position of pHCV-77, pHCV-65 and pHCV-78 in the NS1 region of the HCV genome. The recombinant antigen produced by pHCV-80 is identified as SEQ. ID. NO.4 and is designated HCV CKS-NS1S1-NS1S2. The fusion protein is also designated by pHCV-80 and pHCV-80' refers to the polypeptide located in the NS1 region of HCV, representing amino acids 365-731 of the HCV genome prepared using different recombinant methodologies. Figure 45 illustrates the position of pHCV-80 within the HCV genome. HCV CKS-Full Length NS1 is the designation for the recombinant protein pHCV-92 (SEQ. ID. NO. 5). It represents amino acids 365-847 of the HCV genome. The fusion proteins will be referred to as pHCV-92 and pHCV 92' shall be the designation for the polypeptide from the NS1 region representing amino acids 365-847 of the HCV sequence prepared using other recombinant or synthetic methodologies. Figure 46 illustrates the position of pHCV-92 in the HCV genome. These antigens are used in the inventive
immunoassays to detect the presence of HCV antibodies in samples.
One assay format according to the invention provides a screening assay for identifying the presence of an antibody that is immunologically reactive with an HCV antigen. Briefly, a fluid sample is incubated with a solid support containing the commonly bound recombinant proteins. Finally, the antibody-antigen complex is detected. In a modification of the screening assay the solid support additionally contains recombinant polypeptide c100-3.
Another assay format provides a confirmatory assay for unequivocally identifying the presence of an antibody that is immunologically reactive with an HCV antigen. The confirmatory assay includes synthetic peptides or recombinant antigens representing the epitopes contained within the NS1 region of the HCV genome, which are the same regions represented by the recombinant proteins described in the screening assay. These are pHCV-77, pHCV-65, pHCV-78, pHCV-
80 and pHCV-92. Recombinant proteins used in the confirmatory assay should have a heterologous source of antigen to that used in the primary screening assay (i.e. should not be an E.coli-derived recombinant antigen nor a recombinant antigen composed in part, of CKS sequences). Briefly, specimens repeatedly reactive in the primary screening assay are retested in the confirmatory assay. Aliquots containing identical amounts of specimen are contacted with a synthetic peptide or recombinant antigen individually coated onto a solid support. Finally, the antibody antigen complex is detected. The poiypeptides or recombinant proteins can be utilized as indicated or combined with other poiypeptides and recombinant proteins a described herein and also described in U.S. Serial No. 456,162 entitled "Hepatitis C Assay", filed December 22, 1989, which enjoys common ownership and is incorporated herein by reference.
Another assay format provides a competition assay or neutralization assay directed to the confirmation that positive results are not false by identifying the presence of an antibody that is immunologically reactive with an HCV antigen in a fluid sample where the sample is used to prepare first and second immunologically equivalent aliquots. The first aliquot is contacted with solid support containing a bound polypeptide which contains at least one epitope of an HCV antigen under conditions suitable for complexing with the antibody to form a detectable antibodypolypeptide complex and the second aliquot is first contacted with the same solid support containing bound polypeptide. The preferred recombinant poiypeptides include pHCV-77, pHCV-65, pHCV-78, pHCV-80 and pHCV-92.
Another assay format provides an immunodot assay for identifying the presence of an antibody that is immunologically reactive with an HCV antigen by concurrently contacting a sample with recombinant poiypeptides each containing distinct epitopes of an HCV antigen under conditions suitable for complexing the antibody with at least one of the poiypeptides and detecting the antibodypolypeptide complex by reacting the complex with colorproducing reagents. The preferred recombinant poiypeptides employed include those recombinant poiypeptides derived from pHCV-77, pHCV-65, pHCV-78, pHCV-80, as well as pHCV-92.
In all of the assays, the sample is preferably diluted before contacting the polypeptide absorbed on a solid support. Samples may be obtained from different biological samples such as whole blood, serum, plasma, cerebral spinal fluid, and lymphocyte or cell culture supernatants. Solid support materials may include cellulose materials, such as paper and nitrocellulose, natural and synthetic polymeric materials, such as poiyacrylamide, polystyrene, and cotton, porous gels such as silica gel, agarose, dextran and gelatin, and inorganic materials such as deactivated alumina, magnesium sulfate and glass. Suitable solid support materials may be used in assays in a variety of well known physical configurations, including microtiter wells, test tubes, beads, strips, membranes, and microparticles. A preferred solid support for a non-immunodot assay is a polystyrene bead. A preferred solid support for an immunodot assay is nitrocellulose.
Suitable methods and reagents for detecting an antibody-antigen complex in an assay of the present invention are commercially available or known in the relevant art. Representative methods may employ detection reagents such as enzymatic, radioisotopic, fluorescent, luminescent, or chemiluminescent reagents. These reagents may be used to prepare hapten-labelled antihapten detection systems according to known procedures, for example, a biotin-labelled antibiotin system may be used to detect an antibody-antigen complex.
The present invention also encompasses assay kits including poiypeptides which contain at least one epitope of an HCV antigen bound to a solid support as well as needed sample preparation reagents, wash reagents, detection reagents and signal producing reagents.
Other aspects and advantages of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the following detailed description which provides illustrations of the invention in its presently preferred embodiments.

PETAILEP DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to an assay to detect an antibody to an HCV antigen in a sample. Human serum or plasma is preferably diluted in a sample diluent and incubated with a polystyrene bead coated with a recombinant polypeptide that represents a distinct antigenic region of the HCV genome. If antibodies are present in the sample they will form a complex with the antigenic polypeptide and become affixed to the polystyrene bead. After the complex has formed, unbound materials and reagents are removed by washing the bead and the bead-antigen- antibody complex is reacted with a solution containing horseradish peroxidase labeled goat antibodies directed against human antibodies. This peroxidase enzyme then binds to the antigen-antibody complex already fixed to the bead. In a final reaction the horseradish peroxidase is contacted with o-phenylenediamine and hydrogen peroxide which results in a yellow-orange color. The intensity of the color is proportional to the amount of antibody which initially binds to the antigen fixed to the bead. The preferred recombinant poiypeptides having HCV antigenic epitopes were selected from portions of the HCV genome which encoded poiypeptides which possessed amino acid sequences similar to other known immunologically reactive agents and which were identified as having some immunological reactivity. (The immunological reactivity of a polypeptide was initially identified by reacting the cellular extract of E.coli clones which had been transformed with cDNA fragments of the HCV genome with HCV infected serum. Poiypeptides expressed by clone containing the incorporated cDNA were immunologically reactive with serum known to contain antibody to HCV antigens.) An analysis of a given amino acid sequence, however, only provides rough guides to predicting immunological reactivity. There is no invariably predictable way to ensure immunological activity short of preparing a given amino acid sequence and testing the suspected sequence in an assay.
The use of recombinant poiypeptides representing distinct antigenic regions of the HCV genome to detect the presence of an antibody to an HCV antigen is illustrated in Figure 2. The course of HCV infection in the chimpanzee, Pan, was followed with one assay using recombinant c100-3 polypeptide and with another improved assay, using the two recombinant antigens CKS-Core (pHCV-34)
(SEQ.ID.NO 6 and 7) and pHCV-33c-BCD (pHCV-31) (SEQ.ID.NO 8 and 9) expressed by the plasmids pHCV-34 and pHCV-31, respectively. The assay utilizing the recombinant pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 proteins detected plasma antibody three weeks prior to detection of antibody by the assay using c100-3.
A summary of the results of a study which followed the course of HCV infection in Pan and six other chimpanzees using the two assays described above is summarized in Figure 3. Both assays gave negative results before inoculation and both assays detected the presence of antibodies after the animal had been infected with HCV. However, in the comparison of the two assays, the improved screening assay using pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 detected seroconversion to HCV antigens at an earlier or equivalent bleed date in six of the seven chimpanzees. Data from these chimpanzee studies clearly demonstrate that overall detection of HCV antibodies is greatly increased with the assay utilizing the pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 proteins.
This test is sufficiently sensitive to detect seroconversion during the acute phase of this disease, as defined as an elevation in ALT levels, in most animals. Equally important is the high degree of specificity of the test as no pre-inoculation specimens were reactive.
The poiypeptides useful in the practice of this invention are produced using recombinant technologies. The DNA sequences which encode the desired poiypeptides are preferably assembled from fragments of the total desired sequence. Synthetic DNA fragments of the HCV genome can be synthesized based on their corresponding amino acid sequences. Once the amino acid sequence is chosen, this is then reverse translated to determine the complementary DNA sequence using codons optimized to facilitate expression in the chosen system. The fragments are generally prepared using well known automated processes and apparatus. After the complete sequence has been prepared the desired sequence is incorporated into an expression vector which is transformed into a host cell. The DNA sequence is then expressed by the host cell to give the desired polypeptide which is harvested from the host cell or from the medium in which the host cell is cultured. When smaller peptides are to be made using recombinant technologies it may be advantageous to prepare a single DNA sequence which encodes several copies of the desired polypeptide in a connected chain. The long chain is then isolated and the chain is cleaved into the shorter, desired sequences.
The methodology of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) may also be employed to develop PCR amplified genes from any portion of the HCV genome, which in turn may then be cloned and expressed in a manner similar to the synthetic genes.
Vector systems which can be used include plant, bacterial, yeast, insect, and mammalian expression systems. It is preferred that the codons are optimized for expression in the system used.
A preferred expression system utilizes a carrier gene for a fusion system where the recombinant HCV proteins are expressed as a fusion protein of an E.coli enzyme, CKS (CTP:CMP-3-deoxy-mann o -octulosonate cytidylyl transferase or CMP-KDO synthetase). The CKS method of protein synthesis is disclosed in U.S. Patent Applications Serial Nos. 167,067 and 276,263 filed March 11 , 1988 and
November 23, 1988, respectively, by Boiling (EPO 891029282) which enjoy common ownership and are incorporated herein by reference.
Other expression systems may be utilized including the lambda PL vector system whose features include a strong lambda pL promoter, a strong three-frame translation terminator rrnBtl, and translation starting at an ATG codon.
In the present invention, the amino acid sequences encoding for the recombinant HCV antigens of interest were reverse translated using codons optimized to facilitate high level expression in E.coli. Individual oligonucleotides were synthesized by the method of oligonucleotide directed double-stranded break repair disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 883,242, filed July 8, 1986 by Mandecki (EPO 87109357.1) which enjoys common ownership and is incorporated herein by reference. Alternatively, the individual oligonucleotides may be synthesized on the Applied Biosystem 380A DNA synthesizer using methods and reagents recommended by the manufacturer. The DNA sequences of the individual oligonucleotides were confirmed using the Sanger dideoxy chain termination method (Sanger et al., J. Mole. Biol., 162:729 (1982)). These individual gene fragments were then annealed and ligated together and cloned as EcoRI-BamHI subfragments in the CKS fusion vector pJO200. After subsequent DNA sequence confirmation by the Sanger dideoxy chain termination method, the subfragments were digested with appropriate restriction enzymes, gel purified, ligated and cloned again as an EcoRI-BamHI fragment in the CKS fusion vector pJO2OO. The resulting clones were mapped to identify a hybrid gene consisting of the EcoRI-BamHI HCV fragment inserted at the 3' end of the CKS (CMP-KDO synthetase) gene. The resultant fusion proteins, under control of the la c promoter, consist of 239 amino acids of the CKS protein fused to the various regions of HCV.

EXAMPLE 1. CKS-CORE
A. Construction of the Plasmid pJ0200
The cloning vector pJO200 allows the fusion of recombinant proteins to the
CKS protein. The plasmid consists of the plasmid pBR322 with a modified Jac promoter fused to a KdsB gene fragment (encoding the first 239 of the entire 248 amino acids of the E.coli CMP-KDO synthetase of CKS protein), and a synthetic linker fused to the end of the KdsB gene fragment. The cloning vector pJO200 is a modification of vector pTB210. The synthetic linker includes: multiple restriction sites for insertion of genes; translational stop signals, and the trpA rho- independent transcriptional terminator. The CKS method of protein synthesis as well as CKS vectors including pTB210 are disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Serial Nos. 167,067 and 276,263, filed March 11 , 1988 and November 23, 1988, respectively, by Boiling (EPO 891029282) which enjoy common ownership, and are herein incorporated by reference.
B. Preparation of HCV CKS-Core Expression Vector
Six individual nucleotides representing amino acids 1-150 of the HCV genome were ligated together and cloned as a 466 base pair EcoRI-BamHI fragment into the CKS fusion vector pJO200 as presented in Figure 4. The complete DNA sequence of this plasmid, designated pHCV-34, and the entire amino acid sequence of the pHCV-34 recombinant antigen produced is presented in SEQ.ID.NO 6 and 7. The resultant fusion protein HCV CKS-Core, consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, seven amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and the first 150 amino acids of
HCV as illustrated in Figure 5.
The pHCV-34 plasmid and the CKS plasmid pTB210 were transformed into E.coli K-12 strain xL-1 (recAI, endAI, gyrA96, thi-1 , hsdRI7, supE44, relAI, lac/F', proAB, laclqZDMl 5, TN10) cells made competent by the calcium chloride method. In these constructions the expression of the CKS fusion proteins was under the control of the lac promoter and was induced by the addition of IPTG. These plasmids replicated as independent elements, were nonmobilizable and were maintained at approximately 10-30 copies per cell. C. Characterization of Recombinant HCV-Core
In order to establish that clone pHCV-34 expressed the unique HCV-CKS Core protein, the pHCV-34/XL-1 culture was grown overnight at 37°C in growth media consisting of yeast extract, trytone, phosphate salts, glucose, and ampicillin. When the culture reached an OD600 of 1.0, IPTG was added to a final concentration of 1 mM to induce expression. Samples (1.5 ml) were removed at 1 hour intervals, and cells were pelleted and resuspended to an OD600 of 1.0 in 2X SDS/PAGE loading buffer. Aliquots (15ul) of the prepared samples were separated on duplicate 12.5% SDS/PAGE gels.
One gel was fixed in a solution of 50% methanol and 10% acetic acid for 20 minutes at room temperature, and then stained with 0.25% Coomassie blue dye in a solution of 50% methanol and 10% acetic acid for 30 minutes. Destaining was carried out using a solution of 10% methanol and 7% acetic acid for 3-4 hours, or until a clear background was obtained.
Figure 6 presents the expression of pHCV-34 proteins in E.coli. Molecular weight standards were run in Lane M. Lane 1 contains the plasmid pJ0200-the CKS vector without the HCV sequence. The arrows on the left indicate the mobilities of the molecular weight markers from top to bottom: 110,000; 84,000; 47,000; 33,000; 24,000; and 16,000 daltons. The arrows on the right indicate the mobilities of the recombinant HCV proteins. Lane 2 contains the E.coli lysate containing pHCV-34 expressing CKS-Core (amino acids 1 to 150) prior to induction; and Lane 3 after 3 hours of induction. The results show that the recombinant protein pHCV-34 has an apparent mobility corresponding to a molecular size of 48,000 daltons. This compares acceptably with the predicted molecular mass of 43,750 daltons.
Proteins from the second 12.5% SDS/PAGE gel were electrophoretically transferred to nitrocellulose for immunoblotting. The nitrocellulose sheet containing the transferred proteins was incubated with Blocking Solution for one hour and incubated overnight at 4°C with HCV patients' sera diluted in TBS containing E.coli K-12 strain XL-I lysate. The nitrocellulose sheet was washed three times in TBS, then incubated with HRPO-labeled goat anti-human IgG, diluted in TBS containing 10% fetal calf sera. The nitrocellulose was washed three times with TBS and the color was developed in TBS containing 2 mg/ml 4-chloro-1- napthol, 0.02% hydrogen peroxide and 17% methanol. Clone HCV-34 demonstrated a strong immu no reactive band at 48,000 daltons with the HCV patients' sera. Thus, the major protein in the Coomassie stained protein gel was immunoreactive.
Normal human serum did not react with any component of pHCV-34.
EXAMPLE 2. HCV CKS-33C-BCD
A. Preparation of HCV CKS-33c-BCD Expression Vector The construction of this recombinant clone expressing the HCV CKS-33-BCD antigen was carried out in three steps described below. First, a clone expressing the HCV CKS-BCD antigen was constructed, designated pHCV-23. Second, a clone expressing the HCV CKS-33 antigen was constructed, designated pHCV-29. Lastly, the HCV BCD region was excised from pHCV-23 and inserted into pHCV-29 to construct a clone expressing the HCV CKS-33-BCD antigen, designated pHCV-31 (SEQ.ID.NO. 8 and 9).
To construct the plasmid pHCV-23, thirteen individual oligonucleotides representing amino acids 1676-1931 of the HCV genome were ligated together and cloned as three separate EcoRI-BamHI subfragments into the CKS fusion vector pJO200. After subsequent DNA sequence confirmation, the three subfragments, designated B, C, and D respectively, were digested with the appropriate restriction enzymes, gel purified, ligated together, and cloned as a 781 base pair EcoRI-BamHI fragment in the CKS fusion vector pJO200, as illustrated in Figure 7. The resulting plasmid, designated pHCV-23, expresses the HCV CKS-BCD antigen under control of the jac promoter. The HCV CKS-BCD antigen consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, seven amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, 256 amino acids from the HCV NS4 region (amino acids 1676-1931 , and 10 additional amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences.
To construct the plasmid pHCV-29 twelve individual oligonucleotides representing amino acids 1 192-1457 of the HCV genome were ligated together and cloned as two separate EcoRI-BamHI subfragments in the CKS fusion vector pJO200. After subsequent DNA sequence confirmation, the two subfragments were digested with the appropriate restriction enzymes, gel purified, ligated together and cloned again as an 816 base pair EcoRI-BamHI fragment in the CKS fusion vector pJO200, as illustrated in Figure 8. The resulting plasmid, designated pHCV-29, expresses the CKS-33 antigen under control of the jac promoter. The HCV CKS-33 antigen consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, eight amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and 266 amino acids from the HCV NS3 region (amino acids 1192- 1 457) .
To construct the plasmid pHCV-31 , the 781 base pair EcoRI-BamHI fragment from pHCV-23 representing the HCV-BCD region was linker-adapted to produce a Cla1-BamHl fragment which was then gel purified and ligated into pHCV- 29 at the Cla1-BamHl sites as illustrated in Figure 9. The resulting plasmid, designated pHCV-31 , expresses the pHCV-31 antigen under control of the lac
promoter. The complete DNA sequence of pHCV-31 and the entire amino acid sequence of the HCV CKS-33-BCD recombinant antigen produced is presented in SEQ.ID.NO. 8 and 9. The HCV CKS-33-BCD antigen consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, eight amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, 266 amino acids of the HCV NS3 region (amino acids 1192-1457), 2 amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, 256 amino acids of the HCV NS4 region (amino acids 1676-1931), and 10 additional amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences. Figure 12 presents a schematic representation of the pHCV-31 antigen.
The pHCV-31 plasmid was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-I in a manner similar to the pHCV-34 and CKS-pTB210 plasmids of Example 1. B. Characterization of Recombinant HCV CKS-33-BCD
Characterization of pHCV CKS-33-BCD was carried out in a manner similar to pHCV CKS-Core of Example 1. pHCV-23, pHCV SDS/PAGE gels were run for E.coli lysates containing the plasmids pHCV-29 (Figure 11), pHCV-23 (Figure 12), and pHCV-31 (Figure 13) expressing the recombinant fusion proteins CKS- 33c, CKS-BCD, and CKS-33-BCD, respectively. For all three figures, molecular weight standards were run in Lane M, with the arrows on the left indicating mobilities of the molecular weight markers the from top to bottom: 110,000;
84,000; 47,000; 33,000; 24,000; and 16,000 daltons. In Figure 11 , Lane 1 contained the E.coli lysate containing pHCV-29 expressing HCV CKS-33c (amino acids 1192 to 1457) prior to induction and lane 2 after 4 hours induction. These results show that the recombinant pHCV-29 fusion protein has an apparent mobility corresponding to a molecular size of 60,000 daltons. This compares acceptably to the predicted molecular mass of 54,911.
In Figure 12, Lane 1 contained the E.coli lysate containing pJO200- the CKS vector without the HCV sequence. Lane 2, contained pHCV-20 expressing the
HCV CKS-B (amino acids 1676 to 1790). Lane 3, contained the fusion protein pHCV-23 (amino acids 1676-1931). These results show that the recombinant pHCV-23 fusion protein has an apparent mobility corresponding to a molecular size of 55,000 daltons. This compares acceptably to the predicted molecular mass of 55,070 daltons.
In Figure 13, Lane 1 contained the E.coli lysate containing pJO200 the CKS vector without the HCV sequences. Lane 2 contained pHCV-31 expressing the CKS- 33C-BCD fusion protein (amino acids 1192 to 1447 and 1676 to 1931) prior to induction and lane 3 after 2 hours induction. These results show that the
recombinant pHCV-31 (CKS-33c-BCD) fusion protein has an apparent mobility corresponding to a molecular size of 90,000 daltons. This compares acceptably to the predicted molecular mass of 82,995 daltons. An immunoblot was also run on one of the SDS/PAGE gels derived from the PHCV-31/X1-1 culture. Human serum from an HCV exposed individual reacted strongly with the major pHCV-31 band at 90,000 daltons. Normal human serum did not react with any component of the pHCV-31 (CKS-33-BCD) preparations.
EXAMPLE 3. SCREENING ASSAY
The use of recombinant poiypeptides which contain epitopes within c100-3 as well as epitopes from other antigenic regions from the HCV genome, provide immunological assays which have increased sensitivity and may be more specific than HCV immunological assays using epitopes within c100-3 alone.
In the presently preferred screening assay, the procedure uses two E.coli expressed recombinant proteins, CKS-Core (pHCV-34) and CKS-33-BCD (pHCV- 31), representing three distinct regions of the HCV genome. These recombinant poiypeptides were prepared following procedures described above. In the screening assay, both recombinant antigens are coated onto the same polystyrene bead. In a modification of the screening assay the polystyrene bead may also be coated with the SOD-fusion polypeptide c100-3.
The polystyrene beads are first washed with distilled water and propanol and then incubated with a solution containing recombinant pHCV-31 diluted to 0.5 to 2.0 ug/ml and pHCV-34 diluted to 0.1 to 0.5 ug/ml in 0.1 M NaH2PO4 ·H2O with
0.4M NaC1 and 0.0022% Triton X-100, pH 6.5. The beads are incubated in the antigen solution for 2 hours (plus or minus 10 minutes) at 38-42°C, washed in PBS and soaked in 0.1% (w/v) Triton X-100 in PBS for 60 minutes at 38-42°C. The beads are then washed two times in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), overcoated with a solution of 5.0% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS for 60 minutes at 38-42°C and washed one time in PBS. Finally, the beads are overcoated with 5% (w/v) sucrose in PBS, and dried under nitrogen or air.
The polystyrene beads coated with pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 are used in an antibody capture format. Ten microliters of sample are added to the wells of the reaction tray along with 400 ul of a sample diluent and the recombinant coated bead.
The sample diluent consists of 10% (v/v) bovine serum and 20% (v/v) goat serum in 20 mM Tris phosphate buffer containing 0.15% (v/v) Triton X-100, 1%(w/v) BSA, 1% E.coli lysate and 500 ug/ml or less CKS lysate. When the recombinant yeast d 00-3 polypeptide is used, antibodies to yeast antigens which may be present in a sample are reacted with yeast extracts which are added to the sample diluent (typically about 200 ug/ml). The addition of yeast extracts to the sample diluent is used to prevent false positive results. The final material is sterile filtered and filled in plastic bottles, and preserved with 0.1% sodium azide.
After one hour of incubation at 40°C, the beads are washed and 200 ul of conjugate is added to the wells of the reaction tray.
The preferred conjugate is goat anti-human IgG horseradish peroxidase conjugate. Concentrated conjugate is titered to determine a working concentration. A twenty-fold concentrate of the working conjugate solution is then prepared by diluting the concentrate in diluent. The 20X concentrate is sterile filtered and stored in plastic bottles.
The conjugate diluent includes 10% (v/v) bovine serum, 10% (v/v) goat serum and 0.15% Triton-X100 in 20 mM Tris buffer, pH 7.5 with 0.01% gentamicin sulfate, 0.01% thimerosal and red dye. The conjugate is sterile filtered and filled in plastic bottles.
Anti-HCV positive control is prepared from plasma units positive for antibodies to HCV. The pool of units used includes plasma with antibodies reactive to pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. The units are recalcified and heat inactivated at 59-61°C for 12 hours with constant stirring. The pool is aliquoted and stored at -20°C or at 2-8°C. For each lot of positive control, the stock solution is diluted with negative control containing 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative. The final material is sterile filtered and filled in plastic bottles.
Anti-HCV negative control is prepared from recalcified human plasma, negative for antibodies to pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 proteins of HCV. The plasma is also negative for antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and negative for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The units are pooled, and 0.1% sodium azide is added as a preservative. The final material is sterile filtered and filled in plastic bottles.
After one hour of incubation with the conjugate at 40°C, the beads are washed, exposed to the OPD substrate for thirty minutes at room temperature and the reaction terminated by the addition of 1 N H2SO4. The absorbance is read at
492 nm.
In order to maintain acceptable specificity, the cutoff for the assay should be at least 5-7 standard deviations above the absorbance value of the normal population mean. In addition, it has generally been observed that acceptable specificity is obtained when the population mean runs at a sample to cutoff (S/CO) value of 0.25 or less. Consistent with these criteria, a "preclinical" cutoff for the screening assay was selected which clearly separated most of the presumed "true negative" from "true positive" specimens. The cutoff value was calculated as the sum of the positive control mean absorbance value multiplied by 0.25 and the negative control mean absorbance value. The cutoff may be expressed algebraically as:
Cutoff value=0.25 PCx + NCx.
Testing may be performed by two methods which differ primarily in the degree of automation and the mechanism for reading the resulting color development in the assay. One method is referred to as the manual or Quantum™ method because Quantum or Quantumatic is used to read absorbance at 492 nm. It is also called the manual method because sample pipetting, washing and reagent additions are generally done manually by the technician, using appropriately calibrated pipettes, dispensers and wash instruments. The second method is referred to as the PPC method and utilizes the automated Abbott Commander® system. This system employs a pipetting device referred to as the Sample Management Center (SMC) and a wash/dispense/read device referred to as the Parallel Processing Center (PPC) disclosed in E.P.O. Publication No. 91114072.1. The optical reader used in the PPC has dual wavelength capabilities that can measure differential absorbencies (peak band and side band) from the sample wells. These readings are converted into results by the processor's Control Center.
Screening Assay Performance
1. Serum/Plasma From Inoculated Chimpanzees
As previously described, Table I summarizes the results of a study which followed the course of HCV infection in seven chimpanzees using a screening assay which utilized the c100-3 polypeptide, and the screening assay which utilized pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. Both assays gave negative results before inoculation and both assays detected the presence of antibodies after the animal had been infected with HCV. However, in the comparison of the two assays, the assay utilizing pHCV- 31 and pHCV-34 detected seroconversion to HCV antigens at an earlier or equivalent bleed date in six of the seven chimpanzees. Data from these chimpanzee studies clearly demonstrate that overall detection of HCV antibodies is greatly increased with the assay utilizing the pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 proteins. This test is
sufficiently sensitive to detect seroconversion during the acute phase of this disease, as defined as an elevation in ALT levels, in most animals. Equally important is the high degree of specificity of the test as no pre-inoculation specimens were reactive.
Non-A. Non-B Panel II (Η. Alter. NIH)
A panel of highly pedigreed human sera from Dr. H. Alter, NIH, Bethesda, MD., containing infectious HCV sera, negative sera and other disease controls were tested. A total of 44 specimens were present in the panel.
Six of seven sera which were "proven infectious" in chimpanzees were positive in both the screening assay using c100-3 as well as in the screening assay utilizing the recombinant proteins pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. These six reactive specimens were obtained from individuals with chronic hepatitis. All six of the reactive specimens were confirmed positive using synthetic peptide sp67. One specimen obtained during the acute phase of NANB post-transfusion hepatitis was non-reactive in both screening assays.
In the group labeled "probable infectious" were three samples taken from the same post transfusion hepatitis patient. The first two acute phase samples were negative in both assays, but the third sample was reactive in both assay. The disease control samples and pedigreed negative controls were uniformly negative.
All sixteen specimens detected as positive by both screening assays were confirmed by the spll7 confirmatory assay (Figure 14). In addition, specimens 10 and 29 were newly detected in the screening assay utilizing the recombinant pHCV- 31 and pHCV-34 antigens and were reactive by the sp75 confirmatory assay.
Specimen 39 was initially reactive in the screening test utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 , but upon retesting was negative and could not be confirmed by the confirmatory assays.
In summary, both screening tests identified 6 of 6 chronic NANBH carriers and 1 of 4 acute NANBH samples. Paired specimens from an implicated donor were non-reactive in the screening test utilizing c100-3 but were reactive in the screening test with pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. Thus, the screening test utilizing the recombinant antigens pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 appears to be more sensitive than the screening assay utilizing c100-3. None of the disease control specimens or pedigreed negative control specimens were reactive in either screening assay.
3. CBER Reference Panel
A reference panel for antibody to Hepatitis C was received from the Center for Biologies Evaluation and Research (CBER). This 10 member panel consists of eight reactive samples diluted in normal human sera negative for antibody to HCV and two sera that contain no detectable antibody to HCV. This panel was run on the Ortho first generation HCV EIA assay, the screening assay utilizing d 00-3 and the screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. The assay results are presented in Figure 15.
The screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 detected all six of the HCV positive or borderline sample dilutions. The two non-reactive sample dilutions (709 and 710) appear to be diluted well beyond endpoint of antibody detectabiiity for both screening assays. A marked increase was observed in the sample to cutoff values for three of the members on the screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 compared to the screening assay utilizing c100-3 or the Ortho first generation test. All repeatably reactive specimens were confirmed.
EXAMPLE 4. CONFIRMATORY ASSAY
The confirmatory assay provides a means for unequivocally identifying the presence of an antibody that is immunologically reactive with an HCV antigen. The confirmatory assay includes synthetic peptides or recombinant antigens
representing major epitopes contained within the three distinct regions of the HCV genome, which are the same regions represented by the two recombinant antigens described in the screening assay. Recombinant proteins used in the confirmatory assay should have a heterologous source of antigen to that used in the primary screening assay (i.e. should not be an E.coli-derived recombinant antigen nor a recombinant antigen composed in part, of CKS sequences). Specimens repeatedly reactive in the primary screening assay are retested in the confirmatory assay. Aliquots containing identical amounts of specimen are contacted with a synthetic peptide or recombinant antigen individually coated onto a polystyrene bead.
Sero reactivity for epitopes within the c100-3 region of the HCV genome are confirmed by use of the synthetic peptides sp67 and sp65. The synthetic peptide sp117 can also be used to confirm seroreactivity with the c100-3 region.
Seroreactivity for HCV epitopes within the putative core region of HCV are confirmed by the use of the synthetic peptide sp75. In order to confirm
seroreactivity for HCV epitopes within the 33c region of HCV, a recombinant antigen expressed as a chimeric protein with superoxide dismutase (SOD) in yeast is used. Finally, the antibody-antigen complex is detected.
The assay protocols were similar to those described in Example 3 above. The peptides are each individually coated onto polystyrene beads and used in an antibody capture format similar to that described for the screening assay. Ten microliters of specimen are added to the wells of a reaction tray along with 400 ul of a specimen diluent and a peptide coated bead. After one hour of incubation at 40°C, the beads are washed and 200 ul of conjugate (identical to that described in Example 3) is added to the wells of the reaction tray. After one hour of incubation at 40°C, the beads are washed, exposed to the OPD substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature and the reaction terminated by the addition of 1 N H2SO4. The absorbance is read at 492 nm. The cutoff value for the peptide assay is 4 times the mean of the negative control absorbance value.
1. Panels containing Specimens "At Risk" for HCV Infection.
A group of 233 specimens representing 23 hemodialysis patients all with clinically diagnosed NANBH were supplied by Gary Gitnick, M.D. at the University of California, Los Angeles Center for the Health Sciences. These samples which were tested in by the screening assay utilizing d 00-3 were subsequently tested in the screening assay which uses pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. A total of 7/23 patients (30.44%) were reactive in the c100-3 screening assay, with a total of 36 repeat reactive specimens. Ten of 23 patients (43.48%) were reactive by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34, with a total of 70 repeatable reactives among the available specimens (Figure 16). Two specimens were unavailable for testing. All of the 36 repeatedly reactive specimens detected in the c100-3 screening assay were confirmed by synthetic peptide confirmatory assays. A total of 34 of these 36 were repeatedly reactive on HCV EIA utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 ; two specimens were not available for testing. Of the 36 specimens additionally detected by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 , 9 were confirmed by the core peptide confirmatory assay (sp75) and 27 were confirmed by the SOD-33C confirmatory assay.
In summary these data indicate that detection of anti-HCV by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 may occur at an equivalent bleed date or as many as 9 months earlier, when compared to the d 00-3 screening assay. Figure 17 depicts earlier detection by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 in a hemodialysis patient.
5. Acute/Chronic Non-A. Non-B Hepatitis
A population of specimens was identified from individuals diagnosed as having acute or chronic NANBH. Specimens from individuals with acute cases of NANBH were received from Gary Gitnick, M.D. at the University of California, Los
Angeles Center for Health Sciences. The diagnosis of acute hepatitis was based on the presence of a cytolytic syndrome (ALT levels greater than 2X the upper normal limit) on at least 2 serum samples for a duration of less than 6 months with or without other biological abnormalities and clinical symptoms. All specimens were also negative for IgM antibodies to Hepatitis A Virus (HAV) and were negative for Hepatitis B surface Ag when tested with commercially available tests. Specimens from cases of chronic NANBH were obtained from two clinical sites. Individuals were diagnosed as having chronic NANBH based on the following criteria:
persistently elevated ALT levels, liver biopsy results, and/or the absence of detectable HBsAg. Specimens with biopsy results were further categorized as either chronic active NANBH, chronic persistent NANBH, or chronic NANBH with cirrhosis.
These specimens were tested by both the c100-3 screening assay and the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31. The latter testing was performed in replicates of two by both the Quantum and PPC methods.
Community Acquired NANBH (Acute)
The c100-3 screening assay detected 2 of 10 specimens (20.00%) as repeatedly reactive, both of which were confirmed. The screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 detected both of these specimens plus and additional 2 specimens (Figure 18). These 2 specimens were confirmed by sp75 (see Figure 1 9) .
Acute Post-Transfusion NANBH
The c100-3 assay detected 4 of 32 specimens (12.50%) as repeatedly reactive, all of which was confirmed. The screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 detected 3 out of these 4 specimens (75%) as reactive. The one sample that was missed had an S/CO of 0.95 by the latter screening test. This sample was confirmed by the sp67 peptide (Figure 18). In addition, the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31 detected 11 specimens not reactive in the c100-3 screening assay. Of the 9 specimens available for confirmation, 8 were confirmed by sp75 and 1 could not be confirmed but had an S/CO of 0.90 in the sp65
confirmatory test, (see Figure 19).
Chronic NANBH
A summary of the results on these populations is shown in Figure 20.
Overall, 155 of 164 (94.5%) chronic NANBH samples were detected by the screening test utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34 using either Quantum or PPC. The 155 reactive samples were all confirmed in alternate assays using synthetic peptides based on sequences from either the c100, 33c or core regions of the HCV genome. In contrast, only 138 of 164 (84.1%) specimens were positive by the c100-3 assay. All but one of the 138 c100-3 samples were detected as positive by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-31 and pHCV-34. The one discordant specimen was not confirmed by either synthetic or neutralization assays. Conversely, there were 17 confirmed specimens which were positive only by the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV-31.
The results indicate that the screening assay utilizing pHCV-34 and pHCV- 31 is more sensitive than the current test in detecting HCV positive individuals within chronically infected NANBH populations.
EXAMPLE 5, Competition ASSAY
The recombinant poiypeptides containing antigenic HCV epitopes are useful for competition assays. To perform a neutralization assay, a recombinant polypeptide representing epitopes within the c100-3 region such as CKS-BCD (pHCV-23) is solubilized and mixed with a sample diluent to a final concentration of 0.5-50 ug/ml. Ten microliters of specimen or diluted specimen is added to a reaction well followed by 400 ul of the sample diluent containing the recombinant polypeptide and if desired, the mixture may be preincubated for about fifteen minutes to two hours. A bead coated with c100-3 antigen is then added to the reaction well and incubated for one hour at 40°C. After washing, 200 ul of a peroxidase labeled goat anti-human IgG in conjugate diluent is added and incubated for one hour at 40°C. After washing, OPD substrate is added and incubated at room temperature for thirty minutes. The reaction is terminated by the addition of 1 N sulfuric acid and the absorbance read at 492 nm.
Samples containing antibodies to the c1 00-3 antigen generate a reduced signal caused by the competitive binding of the peptides to these antibodies in solution. The percentage of competitive binding may be calculated by comparing the absorbance value of the sample in the presence of a recombinant polypeptide to the absorbance value of the sample assayed in the absence of a recombinant polypeptide at the same dilution. EXAMPLE 6. IMMUNODOT ASSAY
The immunodot assay system uses a panel of purified recombinant poiypeptides placed in an array on a nitrocellulose solid support. The prepared solid support is contacted with a sample and captures specific antibodies to HCV antigens. The captured antibodies are detected by a conjugate-specific reaction. Preferably, the conjugate specific reaction is quantified using a reflectance optics assembly within an instrument which has been described in U.S. Patent Applications Serial No. 07/227,408 filed August 2, 1988. The related U.S. Patent Applications Serial Nos. 07/227,272, 07/227,586 and 07/227,590 further describe specific methods and apparatus useful to perform an immunodot assay. The assay has also been described in U.S. Application Serial No. 07/532,489 filed June 6, 1990. Briefly, a nitrocellulose-base test cartridge is treated with multiple antigenic poiypeptides. Each polypeptide is contained within a specific reaction zone on the test cartridge. After all the antigenic poiypeptides have been placed on the nitrocellulose, excess binding sites on the nitrocellulose are blocked. The test cartridge is then contacted with a sample such that each antigenic polypeptide in each reaction zone will react if the sample contains the appropriate antibody. After reaction, the test cartridge is washed and any antigen-antibody reactions are identified using suitable well known reagents.
As described in the patent applications listed above, the entire process is amenable to automation. The specifications of these applications related to the method and apparatus for performing an immunodot assay are incorporated by reference herein.
In a preferred immunodot assay, the recombinant poiypeptides pHCV-23, pHCV-29, pHCV-34, and c100-3 were diluted in the preferred buffers, pH conditions, and spotting concentrations as summarized in Figure 21 and applied to a preassembled nitrocellulose test cartridge. After drying the cartridge overnight at room temperature 37°C, the non-specific binding capacity of the nitro-cellulose phase was blocked. The blocking solution contained 1% porcine gelatin, 1% casein enzymatic hydrolysate, 5% Tween-20, 0.1% sodium azide, 0.5 M sodium chloride and 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5.
Forty normal donors were assayed by following the method described above. The mean reflectance density value then was determined for each of the recombinant proteins. A cutoff value was calculated as the negative mean plus six standard deviations. Test cartridges were incubated with samples A00642 and 423 (see Figure 22). Sample A00642 was from a convalescent non-A, non-B hepatitis patient, diluted in negative human plasma from 1 :100 to 1 :12800. The other sample, 423, was from a paid plasma donor which tested positive in an assay using a recombinant c100-3 polypeptide, diluted in negative human plasma from 1 :40 to 1 :2560. After sample incubation, sequential incubations with a biotin-conjugated goat anti-human immunoglobulin-specific antibody, an alkaline phosphatase- conjugated rabbit anti-biotin specific antibody, and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate produced a colored product at the site of the reaction. Sample to cutoff values (S/CO) were determined for all HCV recombinant proteins. Those S/CO values greater than or equal to 1.0 were considered reactive. The limiting dilution was defined as the lowest dilution at which the S/CO was greater than or equal to 1.0. As seen in Figure 22, each sample tested positive for all HCV recombinant proteins. The data demonstrate that reactivity for sample A00642 was greatest with pHCV-29, and decreased for the remaining antigens pHCV-23, c100-3, and pHCV-34. Sample 423 most strongly reacted with the recombinant proteiss expressing pHCV-29 and pHCV-34, and to a lesser extent with pHCV-23 and c100- 3.

Eighteen individual oligonucleotides representing amino acids 1569-1931 of the HCV genome were ligated together and cloned as four separate EcoRI-BamHI subfragments into the CKS fusion vector pJ0200. After subsequent DNA sequences confirmation, the four subfragments were digested with the appropriate restriction enzymes, gel purified, ligated together, and cloned as an 1 102 base pair EcoRI- BamHI fragment in the CKS fusion vector pJ0200.

These results show that both the pHCV-57 and pHCV-58 fusion proteins express at significantly higher levels than the pHCV-24 fusion protein and that both the pHCV-57 and pHCV-58 fusion proteins have an apparent mobility corresponding to a molecular size of 65,000 daltons.

The RNA was then concentrated by several ethanol precipitations and resuspended in water. RNA samples were then reverse transcribed according to supplier's instructions using a specific primer. A second primer was then added and PCR amplification was performed according to supplier's instructions. An aliquot of this PCR reaction was then subjected to an additional round of PCR using nested primers located internal to the first set of primers. In general, these primers also contained restriction endonuclease recognition sequences to be used for subsequent cloning. An aliquot of this second round nested PCR reaction was then subjected to agarose gel electrophoresis and Southern blot analysis to confirm the specificity of the PCR reaction. The remainder of the PCR reaction was then digested with the appropriate restriction enzymes, the HCV DNA fragment of interest gel purified, and ligated to an appropriate cloning vector. This ligation was then transformed into E.coli and single colonies were isolated and plasmid DNA prepared for DNA sequences analysis.

pHCV-77 was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-1 (recA1 , endA1 , gyrA96, thi-1 , hsdRl 7, SupE44, relA1 , Iac/f1 , p10AB, lacl1ADM15, TN10) cells. Expression analysis and characterization of the recombinant protein was done using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as described in Example 1. The apparent molecular weight of the pHCV-77 antigen was the same as the expected molecular weight of 50,228 as visualized on a coumassie stained gel. The immunoreactivity as determined by Western blot analysis using human sera indicated that this
recombinant antigen was indeed immunoreactive. FIGURE 47A presents the expression of pHCV-77 in E. coli. FIGURE 47B presents an immunoblot of the pHCV-77 antigen expressed in E. coli. Lane 1 contained the E. coli lysate containing pHCV-77 expressing the HCV CKS-NS1S1 antigen prior to induction and Lanes 2 and 3 are 2 and 4 hours post-induction, respectfully. EXAMPLE 11. HCV CKS-NS1S2
A. Construction of the HCV CKS-NS1S2 Expression Vector
Six individual oligonucleotides representing amino acids 565-731 of the HCV genome was ligated together and cloned as a 501 base pair EcoRI/BamHI fragment into the CKS fusion vector pJO200. The complete amino acid sequence of this antigen is designated as pHCV-65 (SEQ. ID. NO. 2). The resultant fusion protein HCV CKS-NS1S2 consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, eight amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and 167 amino acids from the NS1 region of the HCV genome.
B. Production and Characterization of the Recombinant Antigen HCV-NS1S2
pHCV-65 was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-1 (recA1 , endA1 , gyrA96, thi-1 , hsdR17, SupE44, relAI , lac/f 1 , p10AB, laclqAMD15, TN10) cells. Expression analysis and characterization of the recombinant protein was done using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as described in Example 1. The apparent molecular weight of the pHCV-65 antigen was the same as the expected molecular weight of 46,223 as visualized on a coumassie stained gel. The immunoreactivity as determined by Western blot analyis using human sera indicated that this
recombinant antigen was indeed immunoreactive. FIGURE 48A presents the expression of pHCV-65 in E. coli. FIGURE 48B presents an immunoblot of the pHCV-65 antigen expressed in E. coli. Lane 1 contained the E. coli lysate containing pHCV-65 expressing the HCV CKS-NS1S2 antigen prior to induction and Lanes 2 and 3 are 2 and 4 hours post-induction, respectively. EXAMPLE 12. CKS-NS1S3
A. Construction of the HCV CKS-NS1S3 Expression Vector
Six individual oligonucleotides representing amino acids 717-847 of the HCV genome were ligated together and cloned as a 393 base pair EcoRI/BamHI fragment into the CKS fusion vector pJO200. The complete amino acid sequence of this antigen is designated as pHCV-78 (SEQ. ID. NO. 3). The resultant fusion protein HCV CKS-NS1S3 consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, eight amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and 131 amino acids from the NS1 region of the HCV genome.
B. Production and Characterization of the Recombiant Antigen HCV-NS1S3
pHCV-78 was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-1 (recA1 , endA1 , gyrA96, thi-1 , hsdR17, SupE44, relAI , lac/f 1 , p10AB, laclqADM15, TN10) cells. Expression analysis and characterization of the recombinant protein was done using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as described in Example 1. Analysis of the coumassie stained gel indicated very low levels of expression of the protein with an expected molecular weight of 42,1141. Western blot analysis also failed to show any immunoreactivity and we are continuing to identify human sera that is specific to this region of NS1.
EXAMPLE 13. CKS-NS1S1-NS1S2
A. Construction of the HCV CKS-NS1S1-NS1S2 Expression Vector
The construction of pHCV-80 (NS1S1-NS1S2) involved using the
SACI/BamHI insert from pHCV-65 and ligating that into the Sacl/BamHI vector backbone of pHCV-77. The resultant HCV gene represents amino acids 365-731 of the HCV genome. This resulted in a 1101 base pair EcoRI/BamHI fragment of HCV cloned into the CKS fusion vector pJO200. The complete amino acid sequence of this antigen is designated as pHCV-80 (SEQ. ID. NO. 4). The resultant fusion protein HCV CKS NS1S1-NS1S2 consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, seven amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and 367 amino acids from the NS1 region of the HCV genome.
B. Production and Characterization of the Recombinant Antigen HCV-NS1S1-NS1S2 pHCV-80 was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-1 (recA1, endA1, gyrA96, thi-1 , hsdR17, SupE44, relAI , lac/f 1 , p10AB, laclqADM15, TN10) cells.
Expression analysis and characterization of the recombinant protein was done using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as described in Example 1. The apparent molecular weight of the pHCV-80 antigen was the same as the expected molecular weight of 68,454 as visualized on a coumassie stained gel. The immunoreactivity as determined by Western blot analysis using human sera indicated that this
recombinant antigen was very immunoreactive. FIGURE 49A presents the expression of pHCV-80 in E. coli. FIGURE 49B presents an immunoblot of pHCV- 80 antigen expressed in E. coli. Lane 1 contained the E. coli lysate containing pHCV- 80 expressing the HCV CKS-NS1S1-NS1S2 antigen prior to induction and Lanes 2 and 3 are 2 and 4 hours post-induction, respectively.
EXAMPLE 14. HCV CKS-FULL LENGTH NS1
A. Construction of the HCV CKS-full length NS1 Expression Vector
The construction of pHCV-92 (SEQ. ID. NO. 5) full length NS1) involved using the Xhol/BamHI insert from pHCV-78 (SEQ. ID. NO. 3) and ligating that into the Xhol/BamHI vector backbone of pHCV-80 (SEQ. ID. NO. 4). The resultant HCV gene represents amino acids 365-847 of the HCV genome. This resulted in a 1449 base pair EcoRI/BamHI fragment of HCV cloned into CKS fusion vector pJO200. The complete amino acid sequence of this antigen is designated as pHCV-92 (SEQ. ID. NO. 5). The resultant fusion protein HCV CKS-full length NS1 consists of 239 amino acids of CKS, seven amino acids contributed by linker DNA sequences, and 483 amino acids from the NS1 region of the HCV genome.
B. Production and Characterization of the Recombinant Antigen pHCV-92
pHCV-92 was transformed into E.coli K-12 strain XL-1 (recA1 , endA1 , gyrA96, thi-1, hsdR17, SupE44, relAI , lac/f 1 , plOAB, laclqADM15, TN10) cells. Expression analysis and characterization of the recombinant protein was done using polyacrylameide gel electrophoresis as described in Example 1. The expression levels as seen by counassie stained gel were virtually undectable and the Western blot indicated no immunoreactivity. We are still in the process of identifying sera that will recognize this region of HCV NS1. The present invention thus provides unique recombinant antigens
representing distinct antigenic regions of the HCV genome which can be used as reagents for the detection and/or confirmation of antibodies and antigens in test samples from individuals exposed to HCV. The NS1 protein is considered to be a rron-structural membrane glycoproteiή and to be able to elicit a protective immune response of the host against lethal viral infection.
The recombinant antigens, either alone or in combination, can be used in the assay formats provided herein and exemplified in the Examples. It also is contemplated that these recombinant antigens can be used to develop specific inhibitors of viral replication and used for therapeutic purposes, such as for vaccines. Other applications and modifications of the use of these antigens and the specific embodiments of this inventions as set forth herein, will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the invention is intended to be limited only in accordance with the appended claims. SEQUENCE LISTING
