Description

1, 3-beta-D-glucan binding protein, preparation method and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of in-vitro diagnosis, in particular to 1, 3-beta-D-glucan binding protein, a preparation method and application.
Background
The current fungus 1, 3-beta-D-glucan detection technology is limulus reagent method detection, and the detection time is about 50 minutes. The key raw material of the limulus reagent is from a national secondary wild protection animal: the limulus reagent is extracted from limulus blood. And the growth cycle of the horseshoe crab is long, the horseshoe crab is extremely difficult to breed, the horseshoe crab can only be used for collecting blood by fishing the wild horseshoe crab, and each horseshoe crab can be used for taking 100-300 mL of blood. After years of killing, horseshoe crab has become an endangered species, and the raw material of horseshoe crab reagent is at risk of under-supply. In addition, the difference between the limulus reagent batches prepared from natural limulus blood is large, so that the production cost of the product is increased and the reproducibility is poor. The detection principle of the limulus reagent method is as follows: the 1, 3-beta-D-glucan can specifically activate the factor G in the limulus reagent, so as to activate the clotting zymogen to form clotting enzyme, and the clotting enzyme catalyzes subsequent color reaction or turbidity reaction. Taking fungus 1, 3-beta-D-glucan detection product of Dana (Tianjin) biotechnology Co., ltd as an example, the kit adopts a limulus reagent chromogenic method, firstly, a sample is pretreated for 10min, and then limulus reagent and chromogenic substrate are added for incubation for 40min. The 1, 3-beta-D-glucan can specifically activate G factor in a reaction main agent, further activate prothrombin, and coagulate chromogenic substrate in hydrolysis reaction of enzyme to generate free paranitroaniline (pNA) so as to cause absorbance change, and the concentration of the 1, 3-beta-D-glucan is quantified according to the dynamic detection of the absorbance change rate of the solution. The total time of the method was about 50min, with a linear lower limit of 37.5pg/mL.
However, the limulus reagent also activates clotting zymogens to form clotting enzymes under the action of bacterial endotoxins, which are widely present in nature, and thus are highly susceptible to interference by bacterial endotoxins.
In the method for detecting 1, 3-beta-D-glucan by using the limulus reagent instead, the binding force between the antibody and the substrate is limited, and the natural attribute is mostly reserved without modifying the system. Taking PCT detection product of Roche company as an example, the reagent adopts a sandwich method, a sample, a biotin-labeled antibody and a ruthenium complex-labeled antibody are added into a reaction cup, and an antigen-antibody sandwich complex is formed after incubation for a period of time. And adding streptavidin-coated magnetic bead particles for incubation, wherein the complex is combined with the magnetic beads through the action of biotin and streptomycin. The reaction liquid is sucked into the measuring pool, and the magnetic beads are adsorbed on the surface of the electrode through electromagnetic action. The substances which are not combined with the magnetic beads are removed through the ProCell, a certain voltage is applied to the electrode, the complex is subjected to chemiluminescence, the luminous intensity is measured through the photomultiplier, the luminous value is positively correlated with the concentration of the to-be-detected substance in the sample, the total time of the method is about 18min, the detection limit is low, the method is mainly limited by the binding capacity of the antibody and the substrate, and the sensitivity and the specificity of the antibody in clinical application are directly influenced. Therefore, there is a need for more excellent detection reagents and detection methods.
In view of this, the present invention has been made.

EXAMPLE 4 preparation of CDR region Multipoint mutant antibodies
In this example, homology search was performed by Protein BLAST from NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information ), and it was determined that more than 30% of homologous proteins exist in the database, so homology modeling was selected.
The obtained wild-type WT antibody amino acid sequence was input into Swiss-model for homology modeling, and the obtained protein conformation was subjected to 3D structure evaluation. The ratio of the amino acids in the disallowed region in the pull graph (shown in fig. 3) is 1.11%, the SAVES version 3D score is greater than zero (shown in fig. 4 and 5), the letter B before the position in the abscissa in fig. 4 represents one of the heavy chains (A or B), the letter C before the position in the abscissa in fig. 5 represents one of the light chains (C or D), and the protein conformation is reasonable as seen from the scoring result and can be used for docking analysis.
The structure optimization and molecular docking are calculated by using PyMOL and Discovery Studio, the lowest energy docking post is determined, the molecular dynamics simulation is calculated by using Amber20, the binding energy between antigen and antibody is analyzed by taking experimental data as a reference, and the amino acid of a specific active site is selected to guide multiple mutation.
Based on the results of molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, as shown in fig. 6-8, it can be seen from fig. 8 that four residues of VAL52 (heavy), PHE58 (heavy), PRO105 (heavy) and TYR106 (heavy) on the heavy chain mainly play a hydrophobic role, and meanwhile, the mutation energy of the several amino acids is greatly changed in calculation of mutation energy. The four residues of TYR31 (light), ASN33 (light), ASN34 (light) and ARG55 (light) on the light chain are connected with antigen mainly by hydrogen bonds, and the hydrogen bond acting force is weaker than the hydrophobic effect through the change of mutation energy. Based on the sequence, the whole gene sequences of the heavy chain and the light chain of the antifungal 1, 3-beta-D-glucan monoclonal antibody with double-point mutation are designed and used for constructing an expression vector, 293T cells are transfected together, supernatant is obtained after 48H of culture, and the antibody is purified to obtain the antibody with double-point amino acid mutation, wherein mutation sites are H108F and L93D.
The binding force of the wild-type antibody obtained in example 2 and the antibody of the double mutation site obtained in this example was detected by the method of titer detection in example 1, specifically by diluting the wild-type antibody and the mutant antibody according to the molar concentration in the table, adding an ELISA plate, and reacting at 37℃for 1h; throwing away the reaction liquid, beating to dry, washing with PBST for 3 times, adding PBS 1: 6000-fold dilution of goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Beijing Soy Bao technology Co., ltd., product No.: SE 134), 100. Mu.L/well, 37 ℃,45min, throwing away the reaction solution, taking a pat dry, PBST washing 5 times, adding 100. Mu.L TMB/well, 37 ℃, developing for 10min, stopping, reading, and the result shows that the binding force of the mutant antibody provided in this example is improved by nearly 100-fold compared with that of the wild-type antibody provided in example 2.
