Description

Nanometer antibody targeting Yes related protein, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to a nano antibody targeting Yes related proteins, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Yes-related protein (Yes-associated protein, YAP) is a transcriptional coactivator and is also a key effector in the Hippo signaling pathway (Hippo pathway), and up-regulation and activation of this protein promotes cell proliferation, growth and anti-apoptosis, and is closely related to the development and progression of many diseases. Structurally, YAP is a multi-domain protein with an N-terminal proline-rich domain, a TEAD binding domain (TAD), a WW domain, an SH3 binding motif, a transcriptional activator binding domain (TID), and a C-terminal PDZ binding motif. Wherein the TID and TAD domains are essential for YAP to exert transcriptional promotion. Since YAP lacks a DNA binding domain, it is involved in expression regulation of genes in the identity of co-activators by interacting with DNA binding transcription factors. The TID domain serves primarily to recruit transcriptional activators, while the TAD domain binds to TEA domain family members 1-4 (TEAD 1-4), which together promote transcription of downstream target genes.
The Hippo signaling pathway, also known as the Salvador/Warts/Hippo (SWH) pathway, is named Hippo (Hpo), a protein kinase mainly derived from Drosophila, and consists of a series of conserved kinases that control organ size, mainly by regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. Its core components include upstream kinase cascade transcription and downstream effectors. The upstream kinase cascade of the Hippo signaling pathway in mammalian cells mainly includes mammalian STE 20-like kinase 1/2 (MST 1/2), large tumor suppressor gene 1/2 (LATS 1/2), sav family WW domain protein 1 (SAV 1), and MOB kinase activator 1 (MOB 1), the two major downstream effectors being YAP, TAZ. The Hippo signaling pathway promotes activation of the Hippo pathway by receiving externally generated growth inhibitory signals, such as Merlin, scribble, which are localized at cell adhesion attachment sites or cell membrane surfaces when cell densities are too high, by forming complexes with a range of kinases, further promoting phosphorylation at the Ser-127 (p-YAPSer 127) and Ser-89 (p-TAZSer 89) residues of YAP and TAZ after mediating phosphorylation of MST1/2, LATS1/2, allowing them to bind to 14-3-3 proteins, thus retaining them in the cytoplasm, or by phosphorylating Ser-127 (p-YAPSer 381) and Ser-89 (p-TAZSer 311) of TAZ and further degrading by the ubiquitinated proteasome system (USP). Thereby inhibiting YAP/TAZ from entering the nucleus, and down regulating the expression of downstream target genes, thereby producing the effect of inhibiting the growth and proliferation of cells.
Mutant inactivation of the Hippo signaling pathway reduces the activity of the upstream kinase cascade, ultimately leading to reduced YAP phosphorylation levels, causing nuclear accumulation, enhancing transcriptional expression of downstream target genes, and promoting tumor development. Research shows that the phenomenon of up-regulation of YAP activity exists in most tumors at present. In Primary Liver Cancer (PLC), YAP expression is associated with tumor progression, differentiation, and up-regulation of YAP appears to be positively correlated with alpha fetoprotein levels; overactive mutations in YAP are commonly observed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, while down-regulation of LATS2 is observed in 60% of cases, and up-regulation of YAP is observed in tumors such as gastric cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer.
Given the importance of the Hippo-YAP pathway in tumor development, current therapies targeting this pathway are also emerging in the field of view, and inhibition of YAP and TEAD interactions has been shown in current preclinical studies to block this interaction to inhibit tumor growth and progression. Researchers have found that Verteporfin (VP) binds to YAP and alters its conformation to effectively block YAP-TEAD interactions, thereby alleviating tumor cell growth due to YAP overexpression, but there are still limitations in clinical use for treatment of YAP-dependent tumors due to its proteotoxicity and poor pharmacokinetics. In addition, prevention of YAP nuclear localization transfer is also a targeting strategy, and drugs such as statin lipid-lowering drugs and zoledronic acid have been found to block YAP nuclear localization by acting on kinases downstream of Rho GTPase; the tankyrase inhibitor XAV939 blocks AMOT degradation, localizes YAP to the cytoplasm, reducing YAP nuclear accumulation. In addition, YAP overexpression mediated tumorigenesis was also found to be associated with immune escape, and the overactivated YAP protein in tumor cells was able to induce the expression of both CCL2 and CSF1 chemokines, thereby strongly recruiting macrophages to the tumor initiating cell periphery. Further studies indicate that recruited macrophages are type 2 macrophages that allow tumor initiating cells to escape immune surveillance through T cell inhibition, avoiding clearance. Thus, inhibition of macrophage recruitment is probably a new therapeutic approach for YAP-highly expressed tumor cells.
By observing the series of therapeutic agents and the direction of treatment, it was found that tumors caused by inactivation of the Hippo signaling pathway could direct spearhead towards YAP overactivation, and thus how to eliminate YAP effects became a key step in the treatment of YAP-dependent tumors. Current treatment regimens for YAP hyperactivated tumors are essentially all by inhibiting their transcriptional promotion of downstream target genes, reducing their role in the nucleus. This type of treatment may have a long onset of action, incomplete onset of action, and off-target potential. Therefore, development of a novel material capable of directly targeting YAP protein is urgently needed, ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS), autophagy and the like are utilized to promote the degradation of YAP protein from the source, eliminate a subsequent series of effects caused by the degradation, and inhibit the occurrence and development of YAP overactive tumor.

YAP protein has molecular mass of 65kDa, and the fusion protein formed by the truncated fragment of the marker sequence, GST and His is purified, and the protein has the size of about 66kDa and is used as a screening target of nano antibodies. The YAP fusion gene is synthesized after codon optimization to carry out escherichia coli induced expression purification, in order to avoid protein degradation and inclusion body generation, 0.4mM IPTG is used for induction at a low temperature of 16 ℃ overnight, and finally, after purification through a Ni column and a molecular sieve, the target protein with high purity is obtained for subsequent nano antibody screening as shown in figure 1.
Screening, identifying and purifying YAP nano antibody
First, YAP fusion proteins were screened for phage nanobody libraries, and after two or three rounds of screening, the library was enriched approximately 100 and 10 fold as shown in FIG. 2. About 192 clones from the library obtained in the third round were picked for preliminary verification by phage ELISA twice, 72 positive clones were initially identified for sequencing, and the sequencing result showed 72 normal. According to the sequence before and after the nano antibody, the nano antibody sequence can be obtained from the sequencing result, 72 sequences are translated into amino acids, then the sequences are sequenced and subjected to multi-sequence comparison, 14 different nano antibody sequences are obtained, the 14 nano antibodies are purified, as shown in figure 3, preliminary verification shows that a false positive and a weak binding force exist, subsequent experiments exclude the false positive and the weak binding force, and the nano antibody with higher purity is obtained after purification.
Affinity detection of yap nanobodies
The binding of YAP nanobodies and YAP fusion proteins is further detected by ELISA, and the result shows that compared with the GST proteins in a control group, as shown in A of fig. 4, the ELISA detects the binding condition of the 12 nanobodies and the YAP fusion proteins, and the result shows that the 12 nanobodies (E1-E11 and E13) participating in the experiment all show better binding capacity, which indicates that the binding capacity of the purified 12 YAP nanobodies to the YAP fusion proteins in the experimental group is higher, and the nano antibodies have higher binding capacity to the YAP. Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, ELISA examined the binding capacity of the 12 nanobodies to GST fragments in the fusion protein to exclude false positive results (as a control) generated by the fragments, and the results showed that the binding of the 12 nanobodies to GST fragments was weak.
Next, a nanobody NbE7 with the strongest binding force was selected from the Elisa results, and a biocare experiment was performed to further examine the affinity constant of the nanobody with YAP fusion protein, while using GST as a control, as shown in fig. 5, the affinity of the nanobody with YAP fusion protein was found to be at nanomolar level, specifically, the affinity of NbE7 with YAP fusion protein was found to be 17.27nM. Further shows that the obtained nano antibody NbE7 has good binding capacity with YAP.
