Definitions

  • BSSL bile salt-stimulated Lipase
  • the invention relates to DNA molecules, recombinant vectors and cell cultures for use in methods for expression of bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.
  • BSSL bile salt-stimulated lipase
  • Bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL; EC 3.1.1.1) (for a review see Wang & Hartsuck, 1993) accounts for the majority of the lipolytic activity of the human milk. A characteristic feature of this lipase is that it requires primary bile salts for activity against emulsified long chain triacylglycerols. BSSL has so far been found only in milk from man, gorilla, cat and dog (Hernell et al., 1989).
  • BSSL has been attributed a critical role for the digestion of milk lipids in the intestine of the breastfed infant (Fredrikzon et al., 1978). BSSL is synthesized in humans in the lactating mammary gland and secretes with milk (Blackberg et al., 1987). It accounts for approximately 1% of the total milk protein (Blackberg & Hernell, 1981).
  • BSSL is the major rate limiting factor in fat absorption and subsequent growth by, in particular premature, infants who are deficient in their own production of BSSL, and that supplementation of formulas with the purified enzyme significantly improves digestion and growth of these infants (US 4,944,944; Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation). This is clinically important in the preparation of infant formulas which contain relative high percentage of triglycerides and which are based on plant or non human milk protein sources, since infants fed with these formulas are unable to digest the fat in the absence of added BSSL.
  • the cDNA structures for both milk BSSL and pancreas carboxylic ester hydrolase (CEH) have been characterized (Baba et al., 1991; Hui and Kissel, 1991; Nilsson et al., 1991; Reue et al., 1991) and the conclusion has been drawn that the milk enzyme and the pancreas enzyme are products of the same gene, the CEL gene.
  • the cDNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) of the CEL gene is disclosed in US 5,200,183 (Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation); WO 91/18293 (Aktiebolaget Astra); Nilsson et al., (1990); and Baba et al., (1991).
  • the deduced amino acid sequence of the BSSL protein, including a signal sequence of 23 amino acids, is shown as SEQ ID NO: 2 in the Sequence Listing, while the sequence of the native protein of 722 amino acids is shown as SEQ ID NO: 3.
  • the C-terminal region of the protein contains 16 repeats of 11 amino acid residues each, followed by an 11 amino acid conserved stretch.
  • the native protein is highly glycosylated and a large range of observed molecular weights have been reported. This can probably be explained by varying extent of glycosylation (Abouakil et al., 1988).
  • N-terminal half of the protein is homologous to acetyl choline esterase and some other esterases (Nilsson et al., 1990).
  • Recombinant BSSL can be produced by expression in a suitable host such as E. coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or mammalian cell lines.
  • a suitable host such as E. coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or mammalian cell lines.
  • heterologous expression systems could be envisaged.
  • human BSSL has 16 repeats of 11 amino acids at the C-terminal end. To determine the biological significance of this repeat region, various mutants of human BSSL have been constructed which lack part or whole of the repeat regions (Hansson et al., 1993).
  • the variant BSSL-C (SEQ ID NO: 4), for example, has deletions from amino acid residues 536 to 568 and from amino acid residues 591 to 711.
  • a eukaryotic system such as yeast may provide significant advantages, compared to the use of prokaryotic systems, for the production of certain polypeptides encoded by recombinant DNA.
  • yeast can generally be grown to higher cell densities than bacteria and may prove capable of glycosylating expressed polypeptides, where such glycosylation is important for the biological activity.
  • use of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a host organism often leads to poor expression levels and poor secretion of the recombinant protein (Cregg et al., 1987).
  • the maximum levels of heterologous proteins in S. cerevisae are in the region of 5% of total cell protein (Kingsman et al., 1985).
  • Sacharomyces cerevisiae as a host is that the recombinant proteins tend to be overglycosylated which could affect activity of glycosylated mammalian proteins.
  • Pichia pastoris is a methylotrophic yeast which can grow on methanol as a sole carbon and energy source as it contains a highly regulated methanol utilization pathway (Ellis et al., 1985). P. pastoris is also amenable to efficient high cell density fermentation technology. Therefore recombinant DNA technology and efficient methods of yeast transformation have made it possible to develop P. pastoris as a host for expression of heterologous protein in large quantity, with a methanol oxidase promoter based expression system (Cregg et al., 1987). Use of Pichia pastoris is known in the art as a host for the expression of e.g.
  • heterologous proteins human tumor necrosis factor (EP-A-0263311); Bordetella pertactin antigens (WO 91/15571); hepatitis B surface antigen (Cregg et al., 1987); human lysozyme protein (WO 92/04441); aprotinin (WO 92/01048).
  • successful expression of a heterologous protein in active, soluble and secreted form depends on a variety of factors, e.g. correct choice of signal peptide, proper construction of the fusion junction between the signal peptide and the mature protein, growth conditions, etc.
  • the purpose of the invention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks with the previous systems and to provide a method for the production of human BSSL with is cost-effective and has a yield comparable with, or superior to, production in other organisms. This purpose has been achieved by providing methods for expression of BSSL in Pichia pastoris cells.
  • human BSSL and the variant BSSL-C can be expressed in active form secreted from P. pastoris.
  • the native signal peptide, as well as the heterologous signal peptide derived from S. cerevisiae invertase protein, have been used to translocate the mature protein into the culture medium as an active, properly processed form. DESCRIP ⁇ ON OF THE INVENTION

The molecular weight of the protein as estimated from SDS-PAGE analysis was approximately 66 kDa. On western blot analysis only two bands (doublet) around 66 kDa were found to be immunoreactive and thus confirming the expression of recombinant BSSL-C.
