Description

Polypeptide probe for targeted recognition of denatured collagen and detection method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a polypeptide probe for targeted recognition of denatured collagen and a detection method thereof, belonging to the technical field of biological detection.
Background
Collagen is the highest protein content in the human body, is the main component of extracellular matrix, and forms a molecular scaffold to provide structural integrity and mechanical strength for connective tissues such as skin, bones, tendons and the like. Collagen has a very specific amino acid sequence, which requires that every third amino acid must have a glycine, forming the characteristic repeat sequence of Gly-X-Y. The collagen of normal connective tissue presents a unique triple helix structure, and three peptide chains are precisely packed together due to the interaction of inter-chain hydrogen bonds. Under a plurality of pathological conditions such as tumor, arthritis and the like, the triple helix structure of collagen molecules can be damaged by protease, and denatured collagen with a partial unfolded structure is generated, so that the normal physiological function of the collagen is influenced. Therefore, the denatured collagen is a key biomarker of a plurality of important diseases, and the establishment of a high-efficiency detection method of the denatured collagen is very important for the analysis and accurate diagnosis of the pathological mechanism of the diseases.
At present, the collagen detection method mainly comprises a tissue staining method, including an HE staining method, an V.G staining method, a Masson staining method and the like. Other methods include antibodies to collagen, peptides derived from collagen binding proteins, and peptides selected from phage expression. These methods have the disadvantages of complicated operation, weak probe binding ability, poor specificity, etc., and they are generally used for simultaneous detection of all collagens, including native collagens and denatured collagens having triple helical structures. Only denatured collagen is a key factor causing collagen-related diseases, and therefore, it is urgently required to establish a detection method with high specificity for denatured collagen. A novel polypeptide probe with specific binding capacity to denatured collagen is designed and synthesized, and the method has important significance for detection and curative effect evaluation of a plurality of diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, organ fibrosis and the like.
Wherein, the natural amino acid polypeptide consisting of the GPO (Gly-Pro-Hyp) repetitive sequence can be specifically combined with pathological collagen. For example, chinese patent CN107266562A discloses a polypeptide probe for recognizing pathological collagen, which modifies fluorescent substance on the GPO repeat sequence to easily form triple helix structure at room temperature. However, there are currently a few types of polypeptide probes that specifically bind to diseased collagen. Therefore, research and preparation of a novel polypeptide probe for recognizing pathological collagen can provide more choices for specific detection of collagen.
Hydroxyproline (Hyp) was found to be important for the formation of the robust collagen signature Gly-X-Y, where proline hydroxylation leads to 4R-hydroxy-L-proline (Hyp)R) Selectively occurs at the Y position of the collagen characteristic sequence Gly-X-Y, and is used as post-translational modification to endow the collagen characteristic sequence Gly-X-Y with additional stability; but also independently favours the formation of hydrogen bonds mediated by water, and hence favours folding into a triple helix structure, of hydroxyproline in the 4R configuration.
However, in the collagen characteristic sequence Gly-X-Y, the arrangement of Hyp generally has the following problems: firstly, since Hyp has a hydroxyl group in addition to the pyrrole ring having Pro, it is not easily synthesized due to the existence of steric hindrance in the synthesis; ② in the X position with CγPro residue of-endo generally stabilizes the triple helix, with CγPro residues of exo fold destabilize triple helix, while Hyp favors CγExo ring folds, thus excessively increasing the torsion angle of the X position of the collagen triple helix, which is detrimental to the formation of the triple helix structure; ③ the GOO (Gly-Hyp-Hyp) sequence is almost absent in the type I collagen chain and does not belong to the natural collagen composition sequence, the technicians in the field can generally select the natural amino acid sequence as the probe, but can not select the non-natural sequence to design the probe.
The invention adopts the non-natural amino acid sequence GOO and synthesizes the collagen protein mimic peptide with the GOO repetitive sequence by a solid phase synthesis method. The obtained GOO repetitive sequence not only has good capability of being folded into a triple helix, but also can be hybridized with a pathological collagen melting point, and can be used as a novel collagen hybrid peptide to perform targeted imaging and detection on pathological collagen.
