Description

Transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector and secretion expression method of transmembrane protein 176B
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of genetic engineering, in particular to a transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector and a secretion expression method of transmembrane protein 176B.
Background
Transmembrane protein (TMEM) is involved in intercellular and intracellular signal transmission, immune-related diseases, tumorigenesis and tumor development, and in various physiological processes, such as ion channel formation of plasma membrane, signal transduction pathway activation, cell chemotaxis, adhesion, apoptosis, autophagy, etc. Transmembrane protein 176B (TMEM 176B), previously known as TORID (tolerance-associated and inducible transcript), was first found in lung fibroblasts, belongs to the family of transmembrane 4A (Membrane-bridging 4-Domains, subset a, MS 4A) proteins, localized on human chromosome 7 (murine localized chromosome 6), which is differentially expressed in immune cells and certain cancers. It is shown that TMEM176B has an inhibitory effect on dendritic cell maturation, presumably inhibiting the anti-tumor immunity of the body. TMEM176B is up-regulated in antigen presenting cells of the allograft mouse model, but much remains to be understood about its role in intracellular processes. At present, few reports on the functions of transmembrane protein family members, particularly TMEM176B, indicate that the research on the transmembrane protein family members is still in the initial stage, and also provide wide space for the research in the field. This is because TMEM176B is localized to the nuclear membrane and it is difficult to isolate the purified protein by conventional methods. Researchers build some over-expression cell lines to realize the continuous over-expression of the TMEM176B gene, and perform verification through an antibody to research the properties of the TMEM176B gene, but the method can only preliminarily judge the functions of the TMEM176B gene, and cannot obtain high-quality purified protein for further research.

In the context of the present invention, a "signal peptide" is used to direct the secretory expression of a foreign protein. "secreted" means that a molecule of a protein or peptide is transported outside the cell after intracellular synthesis. The "mFC-6His protein tag" comprises mFC and 6 XHis, which are linked in sequence, and is named mFC-6His tag.
Transmembrane protein 176B (hereinafter referred to as TMEM176B protein) is a four-transmembrane protein belonging to transmembrane 4A (MS 4A) protein family, and comprises four transmembrane domains and a C-terminal Immunoreceptor Tyrosine Inhibition Motif (ITIM), and its amino acid sequence is described in NCBI accession No.: NM _001164207.1, nucleotide sequence see NCBI accession number: NP _001157679.1. The analysis of the protein structure and the transmembrane domain (see fig. 1-2) shows that the N end and the C end of the protein are both random linear structures and are irrelevant to the protein function, 61-81aa, 89-109aa, 121-141aa and 197-217aa are transmembrane domains, and the analysis of the tertiary structure of the TMEM176B protein shows that the reliability of the selected domains is high. The location of the transmembrane-spanning amino acid region, which should be avoided in selecting the expression region, in the nuclear membrane itself leads to difficult secretion of the protein, so that 55 amino acids in the 142-196 interval are selected as the final stable form in the present invention, and the 142-196 expression region (amino acid sequence see SEQ ID NO: 4) can cover the isoform region and can represent the protein function. The protein expressed by the segment can be used for developing functional antibodies.
As is known, the secretion of the same expression cassette is greatly influenced by matching protein tags and signal peptides of different species, in the invention, a transmembrane protein expression cassette is constructed by selecting a specific fragment of TMEM176B protein and matching the specific signal peptide and the protein tags, specifically, an insertion fragment in an expression vector is connected with a signal peptide gene sequence, a TMEM176B protein 142-196aa gene sequence and a protein tag gene sequence in sequence from a 5 'end to a 3' end, the obtained coding protein is sequentially connected with an IgG signal peptide, the TMEM176B protein 142-196aa and a mFC-6His protein tag from an N end to a C end, the recombinant vector is transferred into a host cell, the secretion expression of the TMEM176B protein is successfully realized, high-concentration TMEM176B recombinant protein is obtained through WB verification and affinity purification, the expression amount is about 110mg/1000mL of Cells, and the subsequent transfection expression process can be optimized, so that higher expression amount is realized. The implementation of the invention provides reference for signal peptide and tag sequence of other transmembrane protein secretion expression.
Alternatively, the gene sequence encoding amino acids 142 to 196 of the transmembrane protein 176B is as shown in SEQ ID NO:5 for encoding TMEM176B protein with 61 amino acids from position 142 (inclusive) to position 196 (inclusive).

Alternatively, the mFC-6His protein tag has an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:6, the gene sequence for coding the mFC-6His protein tag is shown as SEQ ID NO: shown at 7.
Optionally, the expression vector comprises a eukaryotic cell expression vector, which is pcdna3.4.
In another embodiment of the invention, a host cell is provided comprising a recombinant vector for transmembrane protein 176B as described above.
By culturing the above-described host cells by a conventional method in the art, the transmembrane protein 176B can be obtained in a high-purity, high-concentration secreted form. The advantages of the host cell comprising the transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector as described above over the prior art are the same as the advantages of the transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector as described above over the prior art and are not described in detail here.
Optionally, the host cell comprises a eukaryotic cell comprising a HEK293F cell.
In still another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a use of the transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector as described above or a host cell comprising the transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector as described above in the field of producing a secreted protein.

The advantages of the secretion expression method of transmembrane protein 176B over the prior art are the same as the advantages of the recombinant vector of transmembrane protein 176B over the prior art, and are not described in detail here.
It should be noted that the secreted form of transmembrane protein 176B obtained in the culture supernatant only includes TMEM176B protein 142-196aa and mFC-6His protein tag, mFC-6His protein tag is immediately C-terminal to said TMEM176B protein, while IgG signal peptide is anchored to the cell membrane during its secretion process and is cleaved off, which is not involved in the function of the protein nor in the protein structure of the secreted form.
Specifically, in step S1, the gene sequence of the IgG signal peptide, the gene sequence of the TMEM176B protein 142-196aa and the mFC-6his protein tag gene sequence are connected to the multiple cloning sites on the expression vector pCDNA3.4, so that the transmembrane protein 176B recombinant vector can be obtained. For simplicity of operation, an expression vector with a signal peptide and a mFC-6his protein tag can be used as an initial vector, so that the construction of the recombinant vector of the present invention can be omitted.

(4) 6His-tag primary antibody incubation: after the sealing is completed, the sealing liquid is poured off. Primary antibody solution diluted with 3% skim milk (TBST formulation) 1 at 7000 was added, gently shaken on a shaker, and incubated at room temperature for 2h or overnight at 4 deg.C (4 deg.C followed by incubation for 15-30min at room temperature).

It should be noted that, since plasmid 2 has no large tag such as FC, the theoretical size of the inserted protein sequence is only calculated to be 8.74kD, and the reason for the formation of the large inserted protein sequence may be a nonspecific band, which is obtained by exposure to light under conditions of long-term and enhanced color developing solution, and it is considered that no expression is observed. According to the WB assay, the protein of plasmid 3 was secreted extracellularly, and therefore the supernatant could be purified.
