Description

Recombinant vector for mass production of N protein from PRRSV in plant cell organelles and its use {Recombinant vector for mass-producing N protein from PRRSV in plant cell organelle and uses thereof]

The present invention relates to a recombinant vector for mass production of N protein derived from PRRSV and its use in plant organelles.

The porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus is currently the causative organ of swine disease called the reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) of pigs. The entire genome size of PRRSV is 15 kb and has nine open reading frame (ORF, ORF 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3-7) in which the lower genomic mRNAs overlap each other. ORFs 1a and 1b are replication related nonstructural proteins and ORF 3-7 constitutes structural proteins as GP2a, GP2b, GP3, GP4, GP5, membrane / matrix (M) protein and nucleocapsid (N) protein. The major structural proteins are the N protein, the M protein, and the GP5, the primary envelope glycoprotein. The virus is found in approximately 1987 in the United States and after 1990 in Europe and is a causative organism of swine diseases known in the early years as a wide variety of names such as mysterious swine disease, swine infertility and respiratory syndrome. PRRS viruses are now endemic in almost all swine countries and are considered to be one of the most economically important diseases affecting the world's pig production. Currently commercially available vaccines against PRRS include modified live vaccines and killed (inactivated) vaccines. The death vaccine has been criticized for failing to induce strong immunity against heterologous PRRS virus strains. The modified live vaccine is attenuated by continuous passage in cell culture until the loss of autotrophy. Modified live vaccines cause more widespread protection than death vaccines, but can lead to a number of safety issues including residual toxicity, spread to non-vaccinated pigs, and genetic return to toxic conditions. Due to the antigenic changes that occur during the attenuation process, the vaccine may lose some of its ability to protect against the toxic field strain of PRRS virus. Therefore, new and improved modified live vaccines that are able to protect against PRRS are strongly desired.

On the other hand, plants generally have a great potential for the production of biopharmaceutical proteins and peptides because they are easy to transform and economically inexpensive as protein materials. On the other hand, to date, most biologics have typically been produced by transforming cultured mammalian cells, bacteria, fungi, and the like. However, the production of therapeutic proteins in plants as compared to these mammalian cells, bacteria and fungi can result in reduced risk of contamination by pathogens and high yields of production, as well as economical aspects such as production in seeds or other storage facilities There are several advantages in terms of quality. In addition, plants can be an inexpensive target for potentially producing recombinant products, and the cultivation, harvesting, storage, and processing of transformed grains can also use current infrastructure and require only relatively little capital investment This allows for a very large prospect in the commercial production of biologics.

Accordingly, the development of plant expression systems for obtaining the desired useful protein with high efficiency by transforming plant cells has been receiving a great deal of attention. Such plant expression systems have been used for a variety of plant expression systems in which expression levels of recombinant proteins are expressed in plants, It is attractive in that it can be improved by using enemy classification and targeting mechanisms and has the advantage of being able to easily produce large quantities of plant-derived biopharmaceuticals. However, production of the target protein by using the plant may be an important factor determining the plant-based production potential, such as plant selection, tissue selection, expression and recovery strategy, and post-translational processing. Recently, a method for transforming nuclei has been studied in a method for producing a useful protein using plant cells.

However, since the genes introduced into the nuclei are usually introduced into one or a few genes, there is a limit to mass production of useful proteins. In addition, when a foreign gene is inserted into a heterochromatin region on a chromosome, there is a problem that the degree of transformation varies depending on the site to which the foreign gene is introduced, even if it is transformed. Recently, attempts have been made to induce large-scale expression of genes by introducing genes into mitochondria, chloroplasts or chromosomes.

In the present invention, "operably linked" refers to a component of an expression cassette that functions as a unit for expressing a heterologous protein. For example, a promoter operably linked to a heterologous DNA encoding a protein promotes the production of a functional mRNA corresponding to a heterologous DNA.

The term "recombinant" refers to a cell in which a cell replicates a heterologous nucleic acid, expresses the nucleic acid, or expresses a protein encoded by a peptide, heterologous peptide or heterologous nucleic acid. The recombinant cell can express a gene or a gene fragment that is not found in the natural form of the cell in one of the sense or antisense form. In addition, the recombinant cell can express a gene found in a cell in its natural state, but the gene has been modified and reintroduced intracellularly by an artificial means. The term "vector" is used to refer to a DNA fragment (s), nucleic acid molecule, which is transferred into a cell. The vector replicates the DNA and can be independently regenerated in the host cell. The term "carrier" is often used interchangeably with "vector ".

The term "expression vector" means a recombinant DNA molecule comprising a desired coding sequence and a suitable nucleic acid sequence necessary for expressing a coding sequence operably linked in a particular host organism. Promoters, enhancers, termination signals and polyadenylation signals available in eukaryotic cells are known. A preferred example of a recombinant vector is a Ti-plasmid vector which is capable of transferring a so-called T-region to a plant cell when it is present in a suitable host such as Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Other types of Ti-plasmid vectors (see EP 0 116 718 B1) are currently used to transfer hybrid DNA sequences to plant cells or protoplasts in which new plants capable of properly inserting hybrid DNA into the plant's genome can be produced have. A particularly preferred form of the Ti-plasmid vector is a so-called binary vector as claimed in EP 0 120 516 B1 and U.S. Patent No. 4,940,838.

Other suitable vectors that can be used to introduce the DNA according to the invention into the plant host include viral vectors such as those that can be derived from double-stranded plant viruses (e. G., CaMV) and single- For example, from non -complete plant virus vectors. The use of such vectors may be particularly advantageous when it is difficult to transform the plant host properly.

The expression vector will preferably comprise one or more selectable markers. The marker is typically a nucleic acid sequence having a property that can be selected by a chemical method, and includes all genes capable of distinguishing a transformed cell from a non-transformed cell. Examples include herbicide resistance genes such as glyphosate or phosphinothricin, antibiotics such as Kanamycin, G418, Bleomycin, hygromycin, chloramphenicol, Resistant genes, but are not limited thereto.

In the recombinant vector of the present invention, the promoter may be CaMV 35S, actin, ubiquitin, pEMU, MAS, or histone promoter, but is not limited thereto. The term "promoter " refers to the region of DNA upstream from the structural gene and refers to a DNA molecule to which an RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. A "plant promoter" is a promoter capable of initiating transcription in plant cells. A "constitutive promoter" is a promoter that is active under most environmental conditions and developmental conditions or cell differentiation. Constructive promoters may be preferred in the present invention because the choice of transformants can be made by various tissues at various stages. Thus, constitutive promoters do not limit selectivity.

In the recombinant vector of the present invention, conventional terminators can be used. Examples thereof include nopaline synthase (NOS), rice α-amylase RAmy1 A terminator, phaseoline terminator, Agrobacterium tumefaciens ( Agrobacterium tumefaciens ) Octopine gene terminator, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Regarding the need for terminators, it is generally known that such regions increase the certainty and efficiency of transcription in plant cells. Therefore, the use of a terminator is highly desirable in the context of the present invention.

The present invention also provides a plant cell transformed with said recombinant vector.

Methods of delivering the vectors of the present invention into plant host cells include microinjection (Capecchi, MR, Cell, 22: 479 (1980)), calcium phosphate precipitation (Graham, FL et al., Virology, 52: 456 (Wong, TK et al., Gene, 10: 87 (1980)), DEAE (1, (Yang et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 87: 9568-9572 (1990)) and dextran treatment (Gopal, Mol. Cell Biol., 5: 1188-1190 ), And the like.

The pGR-cytosol, pGR-VTS, pGR-VTS-ER and pGR-CPT vectors prepared in Example 2 were suspended in Agrobacterium tumefeciens ) GV3101 strain using the freeze-thaw method. Transgenic Agrobacterium was used to transform tobacco ( Nicotiana Benthamiana) in-fill agent migration (infiltration) in the leaves was a transient expression of mYFP analysis 3 days and 5 days, the flag tag (Flag tag) antibodies (1: Use of 10,000) was carried out the Western blot (Western-blot) analysis . As a result, the mYFP protein (28 kDa) was separated in size as shown in FIG. 2B, and the expression amount of the mYFP protein was highest when it was targeted to chloroplast (CPT), and the cytosol, vesicle (VTS-ER) , And vacuole (VTS) in that order. The localization of the mYFP protein was examined by confocal fluorescence microscopy and the results were combined with a marker protein (RFP, red fluorescent protein). As a result, the expression pattern of the mYFP protein was completely matched. To be precisely targeted to each plant cell organelle (Fig. 3).

Example  4. Agrobacterium-infiltration ( Agrobacterium - infiltration Transient Expression Analysis of N (nucleocapsid) Protein in Tobacco Leaves

A gene coding for the N protein (nucleocapsid) of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRS) was introduced into the pGR-cytosol, pGR-VTS, pGR-VTS-ER and pGR-CPT vectors prepared in Example 2 4A). Transient expression of the N gene on the 3 and 5 days of tobacco leaf was analyzed by Agrobacterium-infiltration in the same manner as in Example 3 above. N protein was isolated to a size of 15 kDa, and bands of about 2, 3, and 4 times of size were considered oligomer patterns of N protein. N protein expression was highest when targeted to chloroplast (CPT), followed by vesicle (VTS-ER), vacuolar (VTS) and cytosol (FIG. 4B).

Example  5. Chloroplasts ( CPT ) Targeting  Expression of N Proteins in Tobacco Transgenic Tobacco Plants and Arabidopsis Plants

Two transgenic plants (tobacco and Arabidopsis thaliana) were prepared by introducing the chloroplast (CPT) targeting vector, which was the most expressed in Example 4, and using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. Transgenic plants (tobacco and Arabidopsis thaliana) were selected using an antibiotic marker, BASTA. Transgenic tobacco plants were selected for five T0 generation lines and transgenic Arabidopsis plants were selected for T1 line. Expression of the N protein in the transgenic plant leaves was analyzed in the same manner as in Example 3 above. Transgenic tobacco plants showed high expression of N protein (15 kDa) in all five lines, and multimeric pattern bands with N protein sizes of 2, 3 and 4 were also observed (Fig. 5A). Transgenic Arabidopsis plants showed N protein expression in five out of twelve lines selected, and a band of a dimeric pattern was also observed (FIG. 5B). The higher the expression level of N protein, the more multimeric band is observed.

Example  6. Endoplasmic reticulum ( VTS - ER ) Targeting  Analysis of N Protein Expression in Vector Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants

Transformed Arabidopsis thaliana plants were prepared by introducing the second highest expression vector (VTS-ER) targeting vector in Example 4 and transforming through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Twelve lines of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana (T0) were selected using BASTA, an antibiotic marker. Expression of the N protein in the transgenic plant leaves was analyzed in the same manner as in Example 3 above. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants showed N protein (15 kDa) expressed in 8 out of 12 lines and multimeric pattern bands with N protein sizes of 2, 3 and 4 were also observed (Figure 6) .
