Description

Expression vector and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to an expression vector and a method for screening a cell pool by using the same.
Background
Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells are the most commonly used expression host for the production of complex biomolecules. The two most common methods for expressing proteins in CHO cells are transient gene expression and stable gene expression. Transient gene expression refers to the fact that exogenous genes exist on episomal vectors after entering recipient cells and are not integrated into the chromosomes of the cells. Transient gene expression is the method of choice for rapid production of small amounts of recombinant protein, typically only 1-3 weeks. However, due to the large amount of DNA and host cells required, transient gene expression is not suitable in cases where gram-sized proteins are to be produced. Thus, stable gene expression is typically used to produce gram-sized recombinant proteins. Stable gene expression refers to integration of the transfected gene of interest into chromosomal DNA to express the protein of interest. However, stabilizing gene expression is time consuming and laborious. Typically 3-9 months are required to generate CHO cell lines. Thus, there is a need for a cell line that is rapid, stable, and highly productive of a protein of interest.

Detailed Description
In some embodiments, the invention may construct an expression vector comprising two gene expression units of interest (see FIG. 1), or an expression vector comprising one gene expression unit of interest (see FIG. 2).
The PiggyBac system adopted by the invention comprises two vectors, wherein one vector is called auxiliary plasmid and is responsible for encoding transposase; another vector is called a transposon plasmid, which contains two terminal repeats (ITRs) and a transposed region between them, to which the promoter, the expression cassette and the gene of interest are cloned together. When the helper plasmid and transposon plasmid co-transfect target cells, the transposase produced by the helper plasmid will recognize both ITR elements of the transposon, and then the transposed region and both ITR elements will be inserted into the host genome. The transposon insertion usually occurs at a host chromosomal site comprising TTAA sequences and TTAA repeats occur on both sides of the transposon.
PiggyBac belongs to class II transposons, which move by a "cut-and-paste" mechanism, transposing from one place to another without leaving the sequence itself. The helper plasmid is gradually lost due to its transient transfection into the host cell. With the loss of helper plasmid, the transposon becomes permanently integrated in the host genome. When these host cells are transfected again with helper plasmids, the integrated transposon will again move through a "cut-and-paste" mechanism.
In the method of screening a cell pool using the expression vector of the present invention or the expression system of the present invention,
the screening strategy for cell pools using puromycin resistance screening markers is as follows (see fig. 3):
puro strategy 1: screening was performed using 10. Mu.g/ml puromycin throughout the course;
puro strategy 2: screening was performed using an increased concentration of puromycin (10. Mu.g/ml, 50. Mu.g/ml, 250. Mu.g/ml);
the screening strategy for cell pools using GS screening markers, including rat GS and human GS, is as follows (see fig. 4):
GS strategy 1: screening was performed using 25 μm MSX throughout the course;
GS strategy 2: screening was performed using varying concentrations of MSX (25. Mu.M, 50. Mu.M);
GS strategy 3: screening was performed using varying concentrations of MSX (25. Mu.M, 50. Mu.M, 100. Mu.M);
the screening strategy for cell pools using DHFR screening markers is as follows (see fig. 5):
DHFR strategy 1: screening was performed using 250nM Methotrexate (MTX);
DHFR strategy 2: the screening was performed using MTX (250 nM, 500 nM) with varying concentration.
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the following examples in order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent.

The cell Viability (VIA) of CHO-K1 cell pools is shown in fig. 7 and table 2 below.
Table 2:
from the above results, it was found that the cell pool using puromycin resistance marker and human GS marker was recovered within two weeks after transfection, and that the cell pool using DHFR marker was recovered much slower. In addition, the concentration of the screening agent during the screening process has a certain effect on the recovery of the cell pool.
CHOExpress TM Cell viability of the cell pool is shown in fig. 8 and table 3 below:

cell viability recovery the Viable Cell Density (VCD) and cell Viability (VIA) of the CHO-K1 cell pool was better recovered (FIG. 9).
CHOExpress with better cell viability recovery TM Cell viability density (VCD) and cell Viability (VIA) were measured (see fig. 10).
Example 2: feed batch culture evaluation cell pools using human GS and puromycin resistance selection markers
The cells after the screening were treated at 0.5X10 6 cell density of cell/ml (seed by centrifuge) was inoculated into 50ml of a medium containing 0.2% of an anti-caking agent (ACA) EX-CELL Advanced CHO Fed-batch, and the mixture was subjected to shaking culture after mixing. The culture conditions are as follows: 37 ℃,140rpm,5% CO 2 85% humidity.
And (3) a feeding strategy:
3%BalanCD CHO Feed 4+0.3%Cell Boost 7b on days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 of culture;
when the glucose concentration is lower than 4g/L, adding glucose to the concentration of 8g/L;
for the cell pool using puromycin resistance selection marker, glutamine concentration was maintained at not less than 4mM on days 2-5 of culture.
A set of conditions was also set up to adjust the temperature to 33℃on day 6 of incubation, with the other conditions being the same as described above.
The growth curve of the cell pool at 37℃is shown in FIG. 11.
