Description

Method for screening neoantigen or neoantigen coding sequence
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a method for screening a neoantigen or a neoantigen coding sequence.
Background
The close relationship between tumorigenesis and gene mutation has been confirmed by many studies. Point mutations, fragment deletions and insertions of the relevant genes, which lead to codon synonymity, missense, termination or frameshifting, result in a change in the protein sequence or loss of the relevant function. Those abnormal proteins which are produced by mutation of tumor cells and which are capable of activating the immune system are called tumor neoantigens. Existing animal and clinical studies have shown that T cells activated by tumor neoantigens are capable of specifically killing tumor cells and producing an immunological memory effect, thereby partially or completely regressing tumors.
In theory, tumor antigens can be processed and presented by both "endogenous" and "exogenous" pathways. Endogenous antigen can be cleaved by proteasome in cells to form I type neoantigen epitope peptide which is short peptide with 8-11 amino acids length, then the short peptide is transported to endoplasmic reticulum by antigen processing related transporter, and is combined with MHC I (major histocompatibility complex I) molecules of endoplasmic reticulum to form stable complex pMHC (peptide-MHC), finally reaches the surface of cell membrane through Golgi apparatus, and is supplied to CD8+T cell recognition. Different from endogenous antigens, exogenous antigens enter acidic endosomes through endocytosis and are degraded into polypeptides with the length of 10-18 amino acids, namely II type neoantigen epitope peptides, polypeptides and peptides: the MHC II molecule complex competes for binding, expelling weakly bound peptides, which are subsequently transported to the cell surface by the MHC II molecule for CD4+T cell recognition. Meanwhile, the process of MHC molecule antigen presentation also has the condition of cross presentation, also called as non-classical antigen presentation path, namely that the polypeptide formed by degrading endogenous antigen is possible to be presented by MHC class II molecule, and the polypeptide formed by degrading exogenous antigen is possible to be presented by MHC class II moleculePolypeptides may also be presented by MHC class I molecules.
The screening process of the neoantigens mainly comprises sequencing, software prediction, ELISpot verification and the like, wherein a high-throughput sequencing technology is a main means for obtaining genome mutation information, and no software or experimental method can help us to quickly screen out the neoantigens which can be presented by tumor cells and have immunogenicity from sequencing data 100% accurately at present. Most of the existing prediction software for screening tumor neoantigens only has higher accuracy in predicting the affinity of the neoantigens and MHC class I molecules, but has a plurality of defects in predicting other aspects such as the rule that the antigens are sheared by proteasomes in cells, the affinity of the antigens and MHC class II, the affinity of pMHC and TAP, and the like. Therefore, although the conventional bioinformatics prediction method is rapid and high-throughput, the algorithm still needs to be continuously verified and perfected, and the accuracy of prediction in other aspects is improved. Meanwhile, other screening methods and steps are also needed to be matched, and the accuracy of the neonatal antigen screening is further improved.
Another classical method for screening neoantigens is to detect the affinity between tumor neoantigens and HLA tetramers in vitro by flow assay to determine the specificity of tumor neoantigens, and based on visual observation of the affinity, the results are accurate, but the cost is high and the time is long. Yet another commonly used means of validating neoantigens is to plate PBMC or mouse lymphocytes in vitro, stimulate these cells with a stimulator (a polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of the neoantigen, i.e., a neoantigen peptide), and count the spots either directly under the microscope or by an ELISpot assay system, with 1 spot representing 1 active cell, thereby calculating the frequency of cells secreting the protein or cytokine. However, the ELISpot experiment can only verify the IFN-gamma secretion capability of the T cell activated by the polypeptide, and cannot accurately reflect whether the neoantigen peptide can activate the T cell to recognize and kill the tumor cell. In addition, a further verification means is to synthesize a neoantigen peptide, and then add the neoantigen peptide to the culture of DC to allow the antigen to be expressedThe DC presents the new antigen epitope peptide to activate the tumor specific T cell, so that the tumor is specifically killed. However, the neoantigenic peptides used in this validation method are almost all short peptides, and neither can their degradation rate in culture systems be evaluated, nor can they be validated by killing experiments for efficient presentation and activation of T cells. In addition, the verification needs to use specific HLA typed cells, namely, the one-to-one killing verification of the primary tumor cells and the corresponding T cells can not be realized. When the synthesized new antigen long peptide is used for screening new antigen, after the antigen presenting cell phagocytoses the long peptide, the antigen presenting cell presents the new antigen epitope peptide through MHC II (major histocompatibility complex) pathway, and CD4 is activated+A T cell; in the immunotherapy of tumor, tumor cells are mostly somatic cells, and peptide-MHC class I complex is presented on the cell surface, so that the screening of neoantigens by using long peptides has limitations.
These factors affect the accuracy of neoantigen screening, often leading to the failure to see widespread tumor regression in cancer patients receiving neoantigen vaccine therapy. In order to further improve the accuracy of screening neoantigens and activate the recognition of tumor cells by the body more effectively, we hope to combine the coding nucleotide sequences of multiple neoantigens together by means of gene design to form an artificial gene, i.e. a short gene tandem sequence (TMG), which can code a neoantigen containing a large amount of neoantigen epitope peptides. By transferring the artificial genes into antigen presenting cells (such as DC cells) and inducing the expression mode thereof, a large amount of new antigen epitope peptide is simultaneously presented to CD8 by MHC class I molecules+T cells induce the ability of the T cells to kill cells carrying the corresponding neoantigens, and then the neoantigens with good immunogenicity are screened by detecting the killing effect.
The killing of the target cells by the lymphocytes can be realized through the ways of secretion of cytokines, release of perforin and granzyme, apoptosis of target cells mediated by Fasl and the like, so that the killing of the target cells by the activated lymphocytes is detected, and compared with an ELISpot experiment for singly detecting IFN-gamma secreted by the lymphocytes, the immunogenicity of the neoantigen is more intuitively and accurately expressed.

(2) transfecting the immature DC cells with the recombinant expression vector obtained in the step (1),
(3) culturing the transfected DC cells to ensure that the DC cells are mature, expressing corresponding neoantigen epitope peptide on the surface of the mature DC cells,
(4) presenting the newborn epitope peptide to T cells by the DC cells matured in the step (3), inducing the T cells to be activated into effector T cells,
(5) co-culturing the effector T cells and the tumor cells in the step (4), and screening the effector T cells with good effect of killing the tumor cells, thereby screening the neoantigen with good immunogenicity, wherein the corresponding coding sequence is the screened neoantigen coding sequence with good immunogenicity.
The invention also provides a method for screening the neoantigen coding sequence, the neoantigen with good immunogenicity is screened according to the method for screening the neoantigen, and the corresponding coding sequence is the screened neoantigen coding sequence with good immunogenicity.
The new antigen coding sequence is used as gene sequence for coding new antigen with new antigen epitope. The neoantigen to be screened may be a short peptide of 8-11 amino acids (i.e., a neoepitope peptide) or a long peptide of longer amino acid length, such as a long peptide of 25 amino acids.
Preferably, 1-50 coding sequences of the neoantigen are inserted into the original expression vector in the step (1).
More preferably, 1-10 coding sequences of the neoantigen are inserted into the original expression vector in the step (1).
Preferably, a plurality of neoantigen coding sequences are inserted into the original expression vector in the step (1), and the neoantigen coding sequences and the head and tail neoantigen coding sequences are connected with the original expression vector through flexible linker coding sequences. Flexible linkers are typically amino acids with short side chains, such as glycine, serine, which are commonly used. The flexible linker coding sequence is used for being expressed together with the neoantigen coding sequence, so that the neoantigens in the expressed product are separated by the flexible linker, and the mutual influence is reduced.
The process of intracellular presentation of neoantigens by MHC molecules requires degradation by the proteasome into short fragments of peptide fragments, binding to the MHC molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum, and presentation to the cell surface via golgi apparatus. The flexible Linker (Linker) can separate different neoantigens, each neoantigen can be cut separately as much as possible during proteasome cutting, and the condition that the short peptide obtained by cutting contains amino acids of two adjacent neoantigens is reduced.
More preferably, the upstream end of the first neoantigen coding sequence is connected with a starting flexible linker coding sequence, an intermediate flexible linker coding sequence is connected between two adjacent neoantigen coding sequences, and the downstream end of the last neoantigen coding sequence is connected with a last flexible linker coding sequence, wherein the amino acid sequence coded by the starting flexible linker coding sequence is GGSGGGSGG, the amino acid sequence coded by the intermediate flexible linker coding sequence is GGSGGGGSGG, and the amino acid sequence coded by the last flexible linker coding sequence is GGSLGGGGSG.
Preferably, a plurality of new antigen coding sequences are inserted into the original expression vector, the recombinant expression vector corresponding to the new antigen with better immunogenicity is screened out, then the immunogenicity of the encoded new antigen is verified respectively aiming at the plurality of new antigen coding sequences in the recombinant expression vector, and the new antigen with good immunogenicity is screened out.
Preferably, the activated effector T cells of step (4) are expanded. And amplifying the activated effector T cells to obtain a large number of effector T cells so as to facilitate the next screening process.
Preferably, the original expression vector in step (1) has a kozak sequence in front of the site where the neoantigen coding sequence is inserted, and the base sequence of the kozak sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 1. The kozak sequence can be combined with a translation initiation factor to mediate the translation initiation of mRNA with a 5' cap structure, so that the function of improving the gene expression level is achieved.
More preferably, the original expression vector in step (1) further has a ubiquitin protein coding gene sequence between the kozak sequence and the site where the neoantigen coding sequence is inserted, and the base sequence of the ubiquitin protein coding gene sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 4. Ubiquitin protein coding gene sequence correspondingly codes ubiquitin protein (ubiquitin), and the ubiquitin protein can mediate tumor neoantigen to be degraded by protease.
Preferably, the original expression vector in step (1) further has a signal peptide coding sequence between the kozak sequence and the ubiquitin protein coding gene sequence, and the base sequence of the signal peptide coding sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 2. The signal peptide (signal peptide) is correspondingly coded by the signal peptide coding sequence, so that the neoantigen can be mediated to enter the endoplasmic reticulum, and the probability of combination of the neoantigen epitope peptide and the MHC I molecule in the endoplasmic reticulum is improved.
For the recombinant expression vectors of the present application, the original expression vector can be used as long as it can be used to express the neoantigen. The general experiment is carried out in mammalian cells, so the original vector needs to be selected from vectors suitable for expression in mammalian cells, for example, the original expression vector can be pVAX1 plasmid, pcDNA3.1 plasmid, etc.
Experimental research shows that the kozak sequence is arranged in the original expression vector in front of the insertion site of the neoantigen coding sequence, so that the presentation amount of a compound of the neoantigen and MHC I (peptide-MHC I compound) and a compound of the neoantigen and MHC II (peptide-MHC II compound) on the cell surface of BMDCs can be improved. Compared with an uninserted original expression vector, the expression vector can improve the presenting amount of a compound of a neoantigen and MHC I (peptide-MHC I compound) and a compound of the neoantigen and MHC II (peptide-MHC II compound) on the cell surface of BMDCs. The insertion of a kozak sequence, a signal peptide coding sequence and a ubiquitin protein coding gene sequence can maximize the presentation amount of a composition (peptide-MHC I composition) of a neoantigen and MHC I on the surface of BMDCs cells; however, in this combination, the increased amount of complex of neoantigen and MHC II presented on the cell surface of BMDCs may be effective, but not effective.
The method for screening the neoantigen comprises the steps of transfecting immature DC cells with recombinant expression plasmids inserted with neoantigen coding sequences, and presenting neoantigen epitope peptides after the DC cells are mature so as to activate T cells.
The invention relates to a method for screening neoantigens or neoantigen coding sequences, which comprises the steps of calculating neoantigens with high affinity, large mutation ratio, non-functionality and non-toxicity and presented by MHC I molecules by using a letter analysis platform algorithm continuously optimized by verified experimental data from the source, transfecting immature DC cells by constructing optimized recombinant expression plasmids, converting the unknown property of exogenously added neoantigens into endogenous addition expression, processing and presenting the neoantigens in the DC cells, activating corresponding T cells, carrying out a killing experiment with tumor cells of the same patient or animal sources, and screening the neoantigens with high affinity, large mutation ratio, non-functionality and non-toxicity and presented by the MHC I molecules and capable of activating T cells with specific tumor cell killing functions. Therefore, the neoantigen with strong immunogenicity can be obtained by rapid screening, and the corresponding wild-type peptide has no immunogenicity, and the neoantigen is the optimal choice for the neoantigen tumor vaccine. Correspondingly, the screened new antigen coding sequence can be applied to different forms of tumor vaccines such as polypeptide vaccines, mRNA vaccines, DNA vaccines and cell vaccines.

Detailed Description
Example 1
(1) Gene design and synthesis for screening neoantigens
First, we designed genes for screening neoantigens, and added kozak, signal peptide and ubiquitin genes before the DNA sequence encoding neoantigens (neoantigen encoding sequence), respectively. Wherein the kozak sequence can be combined with a translation initiation factor to mediate the translation initiation of mRNA with a 5' cap structure, thereby playing a role in improving the gene expression level. As the assembly of the polypeptide and the MHC I-class molecule occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum, in order to improve the collision probability of the polypeptide and the MHC I-class molecule, a signal peptide and a ubiquitin gene are added in front of a neoantigen coding sequence to promote the amino acid sequence obtained by transcription and translation to be cut by a proteasome near the endoplasmic reticulum, and the short peptide obtained after cutting can be transported to the surface of a cell membrane by the MHC I-class molecule. signal peptide mediates the new antigen to enter endoplasmic reticulum, and the probability of combining the antigen and MHC I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum is improved; ubiquitin mediates degradation of tumor neoantigens by proteases. We loaded these different genetic elements on the pVAX1 plasmid (fig. 1a), while we loaded the neoantigen-encoding gene only on the pVAX1 plasmid (fig. 1b) for subsequent cell transfection.
The group pVAX1-mutation (pVAX1-M) indicates that only the neoantigen-encoding sequence was inserted into the original vector, wherein mutation indicates the neoantigen-encoding sequence (abbreviated as M, the same below).
The pVAX1-Kozak-mutation (pVAX1-KM) group shows that the coding sequence of the neoantigen is inserted after the insertion of the Kozak base sequence in the original vector.
The pVAX1-Kozak-Ubiquitin-mutation (pVAX1-KUM) group shows that the coding sequence of the neoantigen is inserted after the Kozak base sequence and the Ubiquitin base sequence are inserted into the original vector.
The pVAX1-Kozak-signal peptide-Ubiquitin-mutation (pVAX1-KSUM) group shows that a Kozak base sequence, a signal peptide base sequence, and a Ubiquitin base sequence were inserted into the original vector, and then a neoantigen coding sequence was inserted.

percent killing ═ percent (control mean a value-experimental mean a value)/control mean a value × 100%.
The genes coding for 10 neoantigens are linked in a TMG through a linker (start linker): GGSGGGSGG, midle linker): GGSGGGGSGG and end linker): GGSLGGGGSG to carry out the immunogenicity screening of the neoantigens, which can help us to improve the efficiency of the screening and eliminate the neoantigens without immunogenicity. From the results of the first screening of neoantigens (fig. 4), the killing of B16F10 cells by TMG 1-activated spleen lymphocytes increased with the increase of the effective target ratio of activated spleen lymphocytes to B16F10, and TMG 6-activated spleen lymphocytes also showed a similar trend. However, TMG 1-activated spleen lymphocytes were less toxic to B16F10 cells than TMG2, TMG3 and TMG 4-activated spleen lymphocytes when the effective target ratio was less than 25: 1. When the effective target ratio is less than 25: 1, the killing ratio of the spleen lymphocytes activated by TMG2, TMG3 and TMG4 to the B16F10 cells ranges from 14.1% to 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the spleen lymphocytes activated by the TMG1, TMG5, TMG6 and PBS groups.

(3) Flow detection of proliferation of spleen lymphocytes induced by candidate neoantigen
a. BMDC cells presenting the neoantigen were collected and T cells were stimulated and centrifuged at 1800rpm at 4 ℃ for 5 min. After each centrifugation, ensuring that cell precipitation can be seen by naked eyes, and centrifuging again if the cell precipitation can not be seen;
b. removing supernatant by suction, adding PBS and mixing, centrifuging at 1800rpm at 4 deg.C for 5min, repeating for 2 times;
c. removing supernatant by suction, adding FITC-CD4/CD8a staining antibody diluted by PBS, mixing uniformly, and incubating for 30min at 4 ℃ in the dark;
d. adding PBS and mixing, centrifuging at 1800rpm at 4 deg.C for 5min, repeating for 2 times;
e. absorbing and removing supernatant, adding 500 mu L PBS into each tube, mixing uniformly, transferring into a flow tube, keeping at 4 ℃ in a dark place until the tube is mounted;
f. and detecting the sample on a flow type computer.
Based on the previous TMG screening, 30 new antigens coded by TMG2, TMG3 and TMG4 were individually subjected to immunogenicity verification, and the results are shown in FIG. 5. mut1-10 is 10 neoantigens that make up TMG2, where the spleen lymphocytes activated by mut6, mut7 and mut8 had a stronger cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells than the other 7 neoantigens. mut11-20 is the 10 neoantigens that make up TMG3, with spleen lymphocytes activated by mut11, mut16, mut17 and mut18 having a stronger cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells than the other 6 neoantigens. mut21-30 is the 10 neoantigens that make up TMG4, of which mut26, mut27 and mut28 activated spleen lymphocytes had a stronger cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells than the other 7 neoantigens. Therefore, by screening the neoantigens one by one, we obtained the 10 neoantigens with stronger immunogenicity: mut6, mut7, mut8, mut11, mut16, mut17, mut18, mut26, mut27, and mut 28.
Furthermore, we also performed immunogenicity validation on their corresponding wild-type antigenic peptides, as shown in fig. 5(d) and table 7. The results show that the 10 wild-type antigenic peptides of wt6, wt7, wt8, wt11, wt16, wt17, wt18, wt26, wt27 and wt28 have only weak cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells and some or even no cytotoxic effect on B16F10 cells, such as wt17 and wt18, compared with the corresponding neoantigen and PBS group.

We took patient tumor tissue and PBMCs for whole exome and transcriptome sequencing. WES sequenced fastq data was quality controlled using Fastqc and fastqsta and data filtered using trimmatic-0.36. The filtered high quality data was aligned to hg38(GRCh38) version of the human reference genome using bwa to generate bam files and sequence alignment optimization, repeated reads labeling, alignment quality correction and indel local re-alignment using software Picard. And on the other hand, inputting the filtered fastq file into an iNeo-HLA module for HLA typing identification of the sample. Samples were then analyzed for point mutations and indel mutations using Mutec 1 v 1.1.7, Strelka v 1.0.11, and Varscan v2.4.1, and high quality mutations were retained after mutation quality evaluation using iNeo-Mut. After prediction of neoantigens based on amino acid changes caused by mutations, the affinity of neoantigens to the identified HLA typing was predicted using iino _ Pred and NetMHCIIPan.
RNA-Seq generated fastq data quality control was also performed using Fastqc and Fastqstat and data filtering was performed using Trimmomatic-0.36. The filtered data were aligned using STAR to hg38(GRCh38) version of the human reference genome to generate bam files, which were then similarly post-aligned with Picard. And (4) after the comparison is finished, calculating the expression quantity by using htseq-count, and simultaneously, quantifying HLA by using a quantification program in iNeo-HLA according to the typing identification result of WES.

From the results of the first screening of neoantigens (figure), the killing of tumor cells by TMG 7-activated tumor-specific T cells increases with the increase of the effective target ratio of the activated tumor-specific cells to the tumor cells, and TMG 8-activated T cells also show a similar trend, and when the effective target ratio is less than 15:1, the toxicity of TMG 8-activated T cells to tumor cells is not as good as that of TMG7, but better than that of TMG9, TMG10, TMG11 and TMG 12. The killing ratio of the TMG 7-activated T cells ranges from 33% to 67%, which is obviously higher than that of the negative control group of other groups and the PBS group, when the effective target ratio is more than 25: the killing effect at 1 is not increased further but decreased, and the result is shown in fig. 7.

Based on the previous TMG screening, 20 neoantigens coded by TMG7 and TMG8 were individually subjected to immunogenicity validation, and the results are shown in FIG. 8. Mut61-70 is the 10 neoantigens that make up TMG 7. Wherein, compared with the other 4 neoantigens, the T cells activated by mut65, mut66, mut67, mut68, mut69 and mut70 have stronger cytotoxic effects on tumor cells. Of these mut68 is able to provoke the strongest cytotoxic effect.
Mut71-80 is 10 neoantigens that make up TMG8, wherein the T cells activated by Mut71, Mut76 and Mut79 have a certain cytotoxic effect on tumor cells compared to the other 7 neoantigens. While none of the other neoantigen-activated T cells showed a cytotoxic effect on tumor cells.
TABLE 14 comparison of killing rates of tumor cells induced by the neoantigens and their corresponding wild-type antigenic peptides
Figure BDA0002736221380000161
In addition, we also performed immunogenicity validation on their corresponding wild-type antigenic peptides, as shown in fig. 8 and table 14. The results showed that the 7 wild-type antigenic peptide-activated T cells, wt65, wt66, wt68, wt69, wt70, wt71 and wt79, had very weak cytotoxic effect on tumor cells. The other 2 wild-type antigen peptides wt67 and wt76 activated T cells did not even have a toxic effect on tumor cells. The specific contents of the encoding genes corresponding to the 10 neoantigens (table 14) we screened experimentally can be found in tables 8 and 9.
