Definitions
- the present invention relates to a biosynthetic gene cluster of Micromonospora echinospora spp. calichensis.
- the calicheamicin biosynthetic gene cluster contains genes encoding for proteins and enzymes used in the biosynthetic pathway and construction of calicheamicin' s aryltetrasaccharide and aglycone, and the gene conferring calicheamicin resistance.
- the present invention also relates to isolated genes of the biosynthetic cluster and their corresponding proteins.
- the invention relates to DNA hybridizing with the calicheamicin gene cluster and the isolated genes of that cluster.
- the invention also relates to expression vectors containing the biosynthetic gene cluster, the individual genes, or functional variants thereof.
- the members of the first category of enediynes are classified as chromoprotein enediynes because they possess a novel 9-membered ring chromophore core structure, which also requires a specific associated protein for chromophore stabilization.
- the members of the second category of enediyne are classified as non-chromoprotein enediynes. These enediynes contain a 10-membered ring, which requires no additional stabilization factors.
- warhead This enediyne ring structure is often referred to as the "warhead.”
- the warhead induces DNA damage, which is frequently a double-stranded cleavage and appears to be irreparable. This type of DNA damage is usually nonrepairable for the cell and is most often lethal. Because of these remarkable chemical and biological properties, there has been an intense effort by both the pharmaceutical industry and academia to study these substances with the goal of developing new and clinically useful therapeutic anti-tumor agents.
- the 9-membered ring chromoprotein enediyne subfamily is comprised of: neocarzinostatin from Streptomyces carzinostaticus, (Myers, A.G., et al., J Am. Chem. Soc, 110, 7212-7214 (1988)); kedarcidin from Actinomycete 585-6, (Leet, J.E., et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc, 114, 7946-7948 (1992)), N1999A2 from Streptomyces globisporus, (Yoshida, K., et al.
- a required apoprotein acts as a stabilizer and specific carrier for the unstable chromophore, and for its transport and interaction with target DNA.
- the non-chromophore enediyne subfamily is comprised of calicheamicin from Micromonospora echinospora spp. calichensis; namenamicin from Polysyncraton lithostrotum; esperamicin from Actinomadura verrucosospora; and dynemicin from Micromonospora chersina.
- Enediyne antibiotics have potential as anticancer agents because of their ability to cleave DNA; however, many of these compounds are too toxic to be used currently in clinical studies.
- Today, only calicheamicin is known to be currently used in clinical trials; and it has provided promising results as an anticancer agent.
- MyloTargTM a calicheamicin-antibody conjugate also known as CMA-676 was approved by the FDA in January of 2000 to treat acute myelogenous leukemia.
- the enediynes also potentially have utility as anti-infective agents, provided that toxicity can be managed.
- Calicheamicin has two distinct structural regions: the aryltetrasaccharide and the aglycone (also known as the warhead).
- the aryltetrasaccharide displays a highly unusual series of glycosidic, thioester, and hydroxylamine linkages and serves to deliver the drug primarily to specific tracts (5'-TCCT-3' and 5'-TTTT-3') within the minor groove of DNA when those sequences are available.
- specificity is also context-dependent.
- the aglycone of calicheamicin consists of a highly functionalized bicyclo[7.3.1]tridecadiynene core structure with an allylic trisulfide serving as the triggering mechanism.
- calicheamicin This activity of calicheamicin has sparked considerable interest in the pharmaceutical industry culminating in the recent FDA approval of the calicheamicin- antibody conjugate MyloTargTM (CMA-676) to treat acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Additionally, similar strategies have been used in phase I trials to treat breast cancer. A massive program to examine calicheamicin conjugated to alternative delivery systems has also recently been undertaken. Hamann, P.R., et al., 87th Annual Meeting of the American Association of Cancer Research, Washington, D.C., pp. 471 (1996); Hinman, L.M., et al., Cancer Res., 53, 3336 (1993); Hinman, L.
- calicheamicin The biological activity and molecular architecture of calicheamicin has also prompted a search for potentially useful analogs.
- one group has produced a novel calicheamicin ⁇ shown to effectively suppress growth and dissemination of liver metastases in a syngeneic model of murine neuroblastoma.
- random mutagenesis of M. echinospora and screening for mutant strains with improved biosynthetic potential has also been pursued.
- Rothstein D. M., Enediyne Antibiotics as Antitumor Agents, pp. 107-126 (1995).
- the toxicity of the enediyne compounds, including calicheamicin, centers on the problem of directing the compound to the cleave only the DNA ofinterest, such as tumor cell DNA, and not the DNA of the host. Due to calicheamicin' s powerful ability to cleave DNA, scientists have investigated the mechanism by which calicheamicin-producing organism protects itself against the DNA-cleaving activity of the molecule. Rothstein, D. M., Enediyne Antibiotics as Antitumor Agents, p. 77 (1995). Prior to this invention, knowledge of genes encoding for non-chromoprotein enediyne self resistance was completely lacking.

- the invention provides the entire calicheamicin-biosynthetic cluster and biochemical studies of aryltetrasaccharide biosynthesis. Furthermore, the calicheamicin self-resistance gene and protein have been isolated, as have the genes and resulting enzymes for steps within the calicheamicin cascade.
- the invention also provides for construction of enediyne overproducing strains, for rational biosynthetic modification of bioactive secondary metabolites, for new drug leads, and for an enediyne combinatorial biosynthesis program.

- the inventors began with a genomic library containing the genome of Micromonospora echinospora spp. calichensis.
- the cosmid library was generated by isolating chromosomal D ⁇ A of Micromonospora echinospora spp. calichensis, fragmenting that chromosomal DNA, inserting the DNA into a cosmid vector and generating a cosmid library according to methods well known in the art. This procedure can be performed using any species of Micromonospora, Streptomyces, or other suitable bacteria.
- PKS polyketide synthase
- the cluster encoding for calicheamicin biosynthesis in addition to carrying a PKS-encoding region, would carry both a common glucose-1-phosphate nucleotidyltransferase and a NDP- ⁇ -D-glucose 4,6- dehydratase gene, encoding the putative enzymes E pl , and E 0d , respectively. See figure 5. These enzymes are necessary to convert a sugar (12)(figure 5) to the hypothesized common intermediate, 4-keto-6-deoxy TDP-D-glucose (30). Analogs to 4,6-dehydratases have been previously characterized from E. coli, Salmonella, and Streptomyces.
- nucleotide transferase from Salmonella has been characterized as an alpha-D-glucose-1 -phosphate thymidylyltransferase.
- the secondary screen was performed using a probe based upon the postulation that the M. echinospora 's calicheamicin synthesis would begin from a similar precursor found in E. coli, Streptomyces and Salmonella, and that this precursor required a dehydratase to convert it into the common intermediate, 4-keto-6-deoxy TDP-D-glucose (30).
- a DNA probe (designated E od 1 ) was designed from the conserved NAD + - binding site of bacterial NDP- ⁇ -D-glucose 4,6-dehydratases. He, X., et al., Biochem., 35, 4721-4731 (1996). Southern hybridization of the genomic M. echinospora cosmid library with the E ⁇ 1 probe revealed cross-hybridization with clones 4b, 10a, 13a, 56, and 60. Two additional clones, designated 58 and 66, were also identified in this screen. See Figure 1. This secondary hybridization indicated the clustering of genes encoding both polyketide and deoxysugar biosynthesis.
- clones 4b, 10a, 13a, 56, and 60 carried PKS I and ⁇ homologues and deoxy sugar biosynthetic genes, as well as encoded the gene responsible for conferring calicheamicin-self resistance.
- the clones positive for PKS I and ⁇ and deoxy sugar biosynthesis homology and calicheamicin resistance were used to map the biosynthetic cluster.
- Southern hybridization established similarity between clones 3a, 4a, 4b, 10a, 13a, 16a and 56. In addition, nucleotide sequence overlaps were found between clones 4b, 13a, and 56. See Figure 1. Restriction mapping and Southern hybridization of these clones indicated that the positive cosmid clones conesponded to a continuous region of the M. echinospora chromosome spanning > 100 kb.
- the present invention thus provides for cosmids having a nucleic acid molecule from Micromonospora echinospora encoding for a nonchromoprotein enediyne biosynthetic cluster.
- One aspect of the invention relates to transformation of a host cell with M. echinospora DNA.
- This method provides a reproducible transformation efficiency of ⁇ 10 kanamycin resistant transformants/ g DNA using a pKC 1139-based vector.

- the polypeptide, CalC confers calicheamicin resistance and has 181 amino acids.
- the invention also provides for CalC fragments conferring calicheamicin resistance.
- the calC locus was isolated by identifying calicheamicin genomic cosmid clones that were able to grow on luria bertani ("LB") agar plates containing ampicillin and calicheamicin.
- the DNA of the positive clones (clones that grew on the plates containing calicheamicin) was isolated and subsequent restriction mapping localized the desired phenotype (calicheamicin resistance).
- the DNA was then sequenced and the open reading frames analyzed to ascertain the orf encoding for the desired phenotype. In vitro studies were also performed and confirmed the ability of CalC to inhibit DNA cleavage.
- DNA containing calC was cloned into an inducible vector, using known methods, resulting in overexpression of calC.
- the polypeptide product (CalC) was then isolated and purified to homogeneity. Analysis of the purified CalC revealed that it is a non-heme iron metalloprotein that functions via inhibition of calicheamicin- induced DNA cleavage in vitro.
- Another aspect of the invention is an expression vector containing calC or a fragment oicalC encoding for a bioactive molecule.
- a transformed host cell preferably bacteria, more preferably E. coli, containing calC or a fragment of calC encoding for a bioactive molecule.
- Such transgenic expression of calC results in an 10 5 -fold increase in calicheamicin resistance in E.coli, a 100-fold increase in resistance in S.lividans, and a 50-fold increase in resistance in yeast.
- the present invention provides for the transformation of human cells with the calC gene.
- the transgenic expression o ⁇ calC in the HT1080 (human) cell line increased its resistance to calicheamicin 10-fold.
- This technique allows bone marrow cells, for example, to be removed from a patient being treated with calicheamicin, and for these cells to be transformed with calC, and for the transformed cells to be returned to the patient.
- This allows the patient to tolerate treatment with calicheamicin or allows the patient to receive higher doses of calicheamicin as the returned human-c ⁇ /C-transformed cells have calicheamicin resistance.
- the transformation is performed by methods known in the art.
- the embodiment of the invention would be applicable to many diseases being treated with calicheamicin.
- the invention further provides for a method of assaying the calicheamicin- induced DNA cleavage and its CalC-mediated inhibition using the molecular break light assay.
- Two molecular break lights (MLBs) for the experiments are described in example 7.
- Break light A is comprised of a 10-base pair stem which contained the known calicheamicin recognition sequence 5'-TCCT-3', while break light B carries the BamHI endonuclease recognition sequence 5'-GGATCC-3'.
- MLBs operate by a separation of the fluorophore-quencher pair resulting a conesponding fluorescent signal.
- the molecular break lights as illustrated in figure 13, operate through cleavage of the stem by specific enzymatic or non-enzymatic nuclease activity resulting in the separation of the fluorophore- quencher pair and conesponding fluorescent signal (see figure 14). CalC in a two- fold molar excess of calicheamicin, completely abolishes calicheamicin mediated DNA cleavage as monitored by the break light assay (see figure 15).
- CalC acts as a "cleavage sink", h essence the protein is cleaved as an alternative to the desired DNA target.
- the invention provides the first such demonstrated mechanism for resistance to a cleavage agent and explains why CalC is able to function in all organisms tested so far (i.e. E.coli, S.lividans, yeast, and humans).

- CalH is a TDP-6-deoxy-D-glycerol-L-threo-4-hexulose 4- transaminase, which catalyzes a pyridoxal phosphate ("PLP")-dependent transamination from glutamate to provide 4-amino-6-deoxy TDP-D glucose (intermediate 39)(figure 5).
- PBP pyridoxal phosphate
- the invention also provides for CalH fragments that retain bioactivity.
- CalH closely resembles perosamine synthase, an enzyme which converts compound 30 to compound 39 (See figure 5) en route to the biosynthesis of TDP-perosamine (TDP-4,6-dideoxy-4-amino-D-mannose) inE. coli. Wang, L., et al., Infect. Immunol, 66, 3545-3551 (1998). Thus CalH is believed to be a 4-ketohexose aminotransferase. To confirm the tentative BLAST assigned function, a combinatorial biosynthesis was performed. Specifically the calR gene from calicheamicin was incorporated into a mutant strain of Streptomyces Venezuela.
- the 4-dehydrase gene (desl) in the methymycin/pikromycin pathway was deleted in this mutant strain.
- a promoter sequence from the S. Venezuela methymycin/pikromycin cluster was incorporated in the expression vector to drive the expression of foreign genes (the calH of calicheamicin) in S. Venezuela.
- wild type S Venezuela methymycin/pikromycin pathway is known to produce methymycin, neomethymycin, pikromycin, and narbomycin. See figure 6.
- Deletion of the desl gene in the mutant strain led to the accumulation of the CalH substrate, TDP-4-keto- 6-deoxyglucose (compound 30, figure 6).

- clones conferring calicheamicin resistance were selected by growth of a Micromonospora genomic bifunctional cosmid library on LB plates containing ampicillin (50 ⁇ g ml "1 ) and calicheamicin (0.25 ⁇ g ml "1 ). In this selection, six clones (3a, 4a, 4b, 10a, 13a and 16a) displayed resistance to calicheamicin. Restriction mapping of these clones localized the desired phenotype to a ⁇ 2kb Pstl-Sacl fragment of DNA. ( Figure 2).

- the PLS-C242-containing S. venezuela- Desl colonies were identified on the basis of their resistance to apramycin antibiotic.
- DesI/calH-1 was grown in 100 ml of seed medium at 29 °C for 48 hours and then inoculated and grown in five Liters of vegetative medium.
- the culture was centrifuged to remove cellular debris and mycella.
- the supernatant was adjusted to pH 9.5 with concentrated KOH, followed by chloroform extraction.
- the crude products (700 mg) were subjected to flash chromatography on silica gel using a gradient of 1-20% methanol in chloroform.
- a major product, 10-deoxymethynolide (ca. 400 mg) were obtained.
- the two macrolides were further purified by HPLC on a C 18 column using an isocratic mobile phase of acetonitrile/H 2 O (1:1). They were later identified as compound (11) and compound (12)(figure 7) by spectral anaylses.
- the invention further provides for a method of assaying the calicheamicin-induced DNA cleavage and its CalC mediated inhibition using the molecular break liglit assay.
- Two molecular break lights for the experiments are shown in Fig. 13.
- Break light A was comprised of a 10-base pair stem which contained the known calicheamicin recognition sequence 5'-TCCT-3', while break light B carried the BamHI endonuclease recognition sequence 5'-GGATCC-3'.
- the length of break light B also considered the requirement of a 3 base pair overhang required for BamHI recognition and the stem of break light A was adjusted to a comparable length and melting temperature.
- the loop of both probes consisted of a T 4 loop to ensure non- hybridizing interactions.
- DABCYL fluorescein
- absorbance max 485 nm
- emission max 517 nm
- DABCYL 4-(4'-dimethylaminophenylazo)benzoic acid
- 16a,c,d illustrate cleavage of break light A with varying concentrations of either (1) naturally-occurring enediynes including esperamicin, (2), non-enediyne small molecule agents (such as bleomycin (3) methidiumpropyl-Fe-EDTA, (4), and Fe-EDTA, (5)) as well as the restriction endonuclease BamHI) in the presence of excess reductive activator DTT.
- this assay allows the detection of 1 in the pM range. This sensitivity compares to that of the biochemical induction assay (BIA), the method of choice in detecting DNA-damaging agents.
- BIOS biochemical induction assay
- the sensitivity can be significantly enhanced by simply increasing the concentration of the molecular break light in the assay as demonstrated with the iron-dependent agents.
- the observed maximum fluorescence obtained upon cleavage of 3.2 nM break light A with either 1 or 2 was identical to that observed with DNasel, consistent with complete degradation of the oligonucleotide.
- incubation of molecular break light A with either DTT or enediyne alone revealed no change in fluorescence.
- molecular break light B was cleaved by 1 at an identical rate. This supports the view that the specificity of 1 is more dependent upon context and perhaps less so on DNA sequence. It should also be noted that 1 leads to predominately double-stranded cleavage while 2 provides single-stranded nicks and the cunent molecular break light assay can not distinguish these two phenomena.
- CalC inhibits calicheamicin mediated DNA cleavage. As illustrated in figure 17, CalC directly inhibits of calicheamicin-mediated DNA cleavage in the break light assay. 3.6pM break light A is coincubated with 3.5nM calicheamicin with increasing amounts of CalC (O.Onm, 1.3nm, 2.6nm, 3.9nm, 5.2nm). Complete inhibition of calicheamicin is achieved with roughly 2-fold excess of CalC. CalC has no effect on esperamicin-induced cleavage of DNA (data not shown).
