Description

Alpaca single domain antibody of anti-human endothelial protein C receptor and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to an antibody of an anti-human endothelial protein C receptor, in particular to a novel specific single domain antibody of the anti-human endothelial protein C receptor, a DNA coding sequence of a variable region thereof, and application of the single domain antibody.
Background
The endothelin C receptor (EPCR) is a newly discovered member of the anticoagulant pathway of protein C, and is another anticoagulant-related protein that is found on the surface of tumor cells following thrombomodulin. Research shows that the protein C receptor can activate protease activated receptor (PAR-1) by combining with Activated Protein C (APC), promote cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis, and EPCR plays a key mediating role in the process; recent research shows that activated protein C can improve the mobility and chemotaxis of breast cancer cell lines by combining with EPCR and PAR-1, reveals that the over-expression of EPCR in cells and tissues is favorable for the proliferation of the cells and tissues, and inhibits apoptosis, thereby promoting the progression and metastasis of tumors. The current EPCR functions include participation in anticoagulation, regulation of inflammatory response, inhibition of apoptosis, and participation in tumor resistance and metastasis.
The open reading frame of human EPCR contains 714 nucleotides, encodes 238 amino acids, and 17 amino acid signal peptides are removed during the processing process, so that the mature protein consisting of 221 amino acids is formed. EPCR consists of an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a short, highly conserved cytoplasmic domain. EPCR on cell membranes belongs to a combined receptor, and researches prove that EPCR has expression in various tumor cells such as lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, renal cancer, colon cancer, malignant glioma, melanoma and the like and leukemia cells, particularly malignant solid tumors. The high expression of EPCR gene in various tumor cells suggests that EPCR gene can be used as a tumor marker for cancer diagnosis.
One antibody that lacks a light chain, consists only of heavy chains, but has full function, is found in camelids such as bactrian camels, dromedary, alpacas, and llamas, called heavy chain antibodies (hcAb). Like conventional antibodies, the heavy chain antibody variable region has good antigen recognition and binding ability, and can normally function as an antibody. The variable region of the heavy chain antibody (VHH) has a molecular weight of about 15kDa, is 1/10, which is only the size of a conventional antibody, and is the smallest molecular fragment with complete antibody function that is currently available, and is called single domain antibody (sdAb). The antigen-binding region of camelid single domain antibodies consists of only three hypervariable regions of VHH (H1-H3), forming in space an antigen-binding domain that differs from the typical structure of conventional antibodies. Wherein the average length of H3 is longer than that of conventional antibodies, and the single domain antibody has a finger-shaped structure protruding in space, so that the single domain antibody can bind to an epitope which can not be accessed by some conventional antibodies. In addition, high expression of recombinant VHH in E.coli could be obtained due to the substitution of hydrophilic amino acids at four positions in the framework region FR 2.
The method for obtaining the gene sequence of the single domain antibody is to screen through a phage antibody library. The phage antibody library is a population which is formed by cloning the alpaca complete set of sdAb variable region genes by using a gene cloning technology, assembling the cloned genes into an expression vector and expressing the expression vector on the surface of a phage. Screening of phage antibody libraries involves two main steps of panning and identification: the panning is to incubate phage antibody library with the target antigen together, elute several times, collect the combined phage, infect the bacterium with the obtained phage and amplify, and then pan for the next round, can enrich to the polyclonal bacterial strain infected with phage specifically combined with target antigen after several rounds of panning; the identification process is to select a monoclonal bacterial strain from the phage-infected polyclonal bacterial strains, i.e. the screened phage-infected bacteria are plated and selected to obtain a high-specificity monoclonal bacterial strain, and the variable region gene sequence and the encoding protein of the related antibody can be obtained after gene sequencing, analysis and comparison. The identified single-domain antibody is further cloned and constructed, and a proper vector is selected for expression to obtain the single-domain antibody. Compared with IgG and scFv antibodies, the single domain antibody has the advantages of small molecule, low immunogenicity, strong penetrating power and the like, so that the single domain antibody has wide application prospects in the fields of basic research, drug development and the like.
At present, there has been no antibody screening for an anti-human endothelin C receptor using the full length of human EPCR as a target antigen using an alpaca phage antibody library.

As shown in fig. 1.
With increasing antibody concentration, the OD450 also increased gradually, beginning at a concentration of 5 × 1010PFU per well into the plateau phase. In terms of antigen coating concentration, the binding capacity of the antibody and the antigen is not obviously increased along with the increase of the antigen concentration, and particularly under the condition of 5.0 mu g/ml and 2.5 mu g/ml, the increase range is small and is almost close to the plateau phase. Therefore, from the viewpoint of both the sensitivity and economy of the test, the optimum antigen coating concentration of the test was confirmed to be 2.5. mu.g/ml and the antibody incubation concentration was 5X 10 per well8PFU。
Example 3 obtaining Single Domain antibodies that bind EPCR with high affinity and Competition
1. Antibody affinity detection:
the affinity assay was performed using a conventional ELISA method as follows: fixing the candidate antibody on a carrier, then coating the antibody to react with the antigen, washing, then reacting with a detection antibody with a mark, washing, and finally carrying out chemiluminescence or enzyme-linked chromogenic reaction to detect a signal. The results are shown in FIG. 2.
2. Antibody competitive binding capacity assay:
the detection method by competitive binding ELISA was as follows: fixing the antigen EPCR on a carrier, then reacting the candidate antibody with the antigen (a control group), detecting the competitive binding capacity by adopting the steps of mixing the candidate antibody with the purified protein C, then reacting with the antigen (a detection group), washing, reacting with a labeled detection antibody, washing, and finally carrying out chemiluminescence or enzyme-linked chromogenic reaction to detect signals. The results are shown in FIG. 3.
Through affinity detection and competitive binding capacity detection, two antibody variable regions are obtained through screening, namely clone 6(clone 6) and clone 8(clone 8), and the two antibodies have stronger binding reaction with EPCR, but the binding capacity with EPCR is obviously reduced after the antibodies are mixed and incubated with protein C, which indicates that the binding with EPCR and the binding between protein C and EPCR are competitive. The variable region sequences of clones 6 and 8 were sequenced as follows:

FIG. 6 shows that after 40 days of inoculation, the mice were treated, and the tumors were removed and measured, and it can be seen that the mean tumor volume in the mice of the experimental group was significantly smaller than that in the control group, indicating that the anti-EPCR antibodies prepared by us can effectively inhibit the growth of breast cancer tumors in the mice.
