Definitions
- This invention is in the general area of recombinant DNA technology. More specifically it relates to mutationally altered biologically active proteins that differ from their parent analogs by one or more substituents/deletions of cysteine residues.
- Biologically active proteins that are microbially produced via recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology may contain cysteine residues that are nonessential to their activity but are free to form undesirable intermolecular or intramolecular links.
- rDNA recombinant DNA
- One such protein is microbially produced human beta interferon (IFN- ⁇ ).
- IFN- ⁇ human beta interferon
- IFN- ⁇ This multimer formation renders purification and separation of IFN- ⁇ very laborious and time consuming and necessitates several additional steps in purification and isolation procedures such as reducing the protein during purification and reoxidizing it to restore it to its original conformation, thereby increasing the possibility of incorrect disulfide bond formation.
- microbially produced IFN- ⁇ has also been found to exhibit consistently low specific activity due perhaps to the formation of multimers or of random intramolecular disulfide bridges.
- the present invention is directed to producing by directed mutagenesis techniques mutationally altered biologically active proteins (such proteins are called "muteins", Glossary of Genetics and Cytogenetics, 4th Ed, p 381, Springer-Verlag (1976)) that retain the activity of their parent analogs but lack the ability to form intermolecular links or undesirable intramolecular disulfide bonds.
- mutationally altered biologically active proteins such proteins are called "muteins”, Glossary of Genetics and Cytogenetics, 4th Ed, p 381, Springer-Verlag (1976)
- One aspect of the invention is a synthetic mutein of a biologically active protein which protein has at least one cysteine residue that is free to form a disulfide link and is nonessential to said biological activity, said mutein having at least one of said cysteine residues deleted or replaced by another amino acid.
- Another aspect of the invention relates to synthetic structural genes having DNA sequences that have been specifically designed ("designer genes") to encode the above described synthetic muteins.
- designer genes DNA sequences that have been specifically designed
- Subaspects of this aspect are expression vectors that include such structural designer genes, host cells or organisms transformed with such vectors, and processes for making the synthetic mutein by culturing such transformants or their progeny and recovering the mutein from the culture.
- therapeutic compositions that contain therapeutically effective amounts of the muteins and therapeutic methods are other aspects of the invention.
- Another aspect of the invention is a method of preventing a protein having one or more cysteine residues that is free to form an undesirable disulfide link from forming such a link comprising mutationally altering the protein by deleting the cysteine residue(s) or replacing them with other amino acids.
- Still another aspect of the invention is a method for making the above described synthetic structural gene by oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis comprising the following steps:
- mutant oligonucleotide primers used in this process are another aspect of the invention.

- the present invention provides: muteins of biologically active proteins in which cysteine residues that are not essential to biological activity have been deliberately deleted or replaced with other amino acids to eliminate sites for intermolecular crosslinking or incorrect intramolecular disulfide bond formation; mutant genes coding for such muteins; and means for making such muteins.
- Proteins that may be mutationally altered according to this invention may be identified from available information regarding the cysteine content of biologically active proteins and the roles played by the cysteine residues with respect to activity and tertiary structure. For proteins for which such information is not available in the literature this information may be determined by systematically altering each of the cysteine residues of the protein by the procedures described herein and testing the biological activity of the resulting muteins and their proclivity to form undesirable intermolecular or intramolecular disulfide bonds.
- proteins other than IFN- ⁇ and IL-2 that are candidates for mutational alteration according to the invention are lymphotoxin (tumor necrosis factor), colony stimulating factor-1, and IFN- ⁇ 1.
- lymphotoxin tumor necrosis factor
- colony stimulating factor-1 colony stimulating factor-1
- IFN- ⁇ 1 IFN- ⁇ 1.
- Candidate proteins will usually have an odd number of cysteine residues.
- IFN- ⁇ In the case of IFN- ⁇ it has been reported in the literature and that both the glycosylated and unglycosylated IFNs show qualitatively similar specific activities and that, therefore, the glycosyl moieties are not involved in and do not contribute to the biological activity of IFN- ⁇ . However, bacterially produced IFN- ⁇ which is unglycosylated consistently exhibits quantitatively lower specific activity than native IFN- ⁇ which is glycosylated. IFN- ⁇ is known to have three cysteine residues at positions 17, 31 and 141. Cysteine 141 has been demonstrated by Shepard, et al, supra, to be essential for biological activity.
- IFN- ⁇ which contains four cysteine residues
- cys 141 of IFN- ⁇ could be involved in an intramolecular --S--S-- bond with cys 31, leaving cys 17 free to form intramolecular crosslinks.
- cys 17 By either deleting cys 17 or substituting it by a different amino acid, one can determine whether cys 17 is essential to biological activity, and its role in --SS-- bond formation.
- cys 17 is not essential for the biological activity of the protein, the resulting cys 17-deleted or cys 17-substituted protein might exhibit specific activity close to that of native IFN- ⁇ and would possibly also facilitate isolation and purification of the protein.
- oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis procedure By the use of the oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis procedure with a synthetic oligonucleotide primer that is complementary to the region of the IFN- ⁇ gene at the codon for cys 17 but which contains single or multiple base changes in that codon, a designer gene may be produced that results in cys 17 being replaced with any other amino acid of choice. When deletion is desired the oligonucleotide primer lacks the codon for cys 17.
- Conversion of cys 17 to neutral amino acids such as glycine, valine, alanine, leucine, isoleucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, histidine, tryptophan, serine, threonine and methionine is the preferred approach.
- Serine and threonine are the most preferred replacements because of their chemical analogy to cysteine.
- the cysteine is deleted, the mature mutein is one amino acid shorter than the native parent protein or the microbially produced IFN- ⁇ .
- Human IL-2 is reported to have three cysteine residues located at positions 58, 105, and 125 of the protein.
- IL-2 is in an aggregated oligomeric form when isolated from bacterial cells and has to be reduced with reducing agents in order to obtain a good yield from bacterial extracts.
- the purified reduced IL-2 protein is unstable and readily reoxidized upon storage to an oligomeric inactive form.
- the presence of three cysteines means that upon reoxidation, the protein may randomly form one of three possible intramolecular disulfide bridges, with only one of those being the correct bridge as found in the native molecule.
- the disulfide structure of the native IL-2 protein is not known, it is possible to use the present invention to create mutations at codons 58, 105 and 125 of the IL-2 gene and identify which cysteine residues are necessary for activity and therefore most likely to be involved in native disulfide bridge formation.
- the cysteine residue that is not necessary for activity can be modified so as to prevent the formation of incorrect intramolecular disulfide bridges and minimize the chance of intermolecular disulfide bridges by .[.removal or.]. replacement of the free cysteine residue.
- the size of the oligonucleotide primer is determined by the requirement for stable hybridization of the primer to the region of the gene in which the mutation is to be induced, and by the limitations of the currently available methods for synthesizing oligonucleotides.
- the factors to be considered in designing oligonucleotides for use in oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis are described by Smith, M. and Gillam S., supra.
- the overall length of the oligonucleotide will be such as to optimize stable, unique hybridization at the mutation site with the 5' and 3' extensions from the mutation site being of sufficient size to avoid editing of the mutation by the exonuclease activity of the DNA polymerase.
- Oligonucleotides used for mutagenesis in accordance with the present invention usually contain from about 12 to about 24 bases, preferably from about 14 to about 20 bases and still more preferably from about 15 to about 18 bases. They will usually contain at least about three bases 3' of the altered or missing codon.
- the method for preparing the modified IFN- ⁇ gene broadly involves inducing a site-specific mutagenesis in the IFN- ⁇ gene at codon 17 (TGT) using a synthetic nucleotide primer which omits the codon or alters it so that it codes for another amino acid.
- TGT codon 17
- the preferred nucleotide primer is GCAATTTTCAGACTCAG (underlining denotes the altered codon).
- the preferred primer is AGCAATTTTCAGCAGAAGCTCCTG, which omits the TGT codon for cys.
- a 17-nucleotide primer GCAATTTTCAGAGTCAG, which includes an AGT codon for serine is the primer of choice.
- the T ⁇ A transition of the first base in the cys 17 codon results in changing cysteine to serine. It must be recognized that when deletions are introduced, the proper reading frame for the DNA sequence must be maintained for expression of the desired protein.
- the primer is hybridized to single-stranded phage such as M13, fd, or ⁇ X174 into which a strand of the IFN- ⁇ gene has been cloned. It will be appreciated that the phase may carry either the sense strand or antisense strand of the gene. When the phage carries the antisense strand the primer is identical to the region of the sense strand that contains the codon to be mutated except for a mismatch with that codon that defines a deletion of the codon or a triplet that codes for another amino acid.
- the primer When the phage carries the sense strand the primer is complementary to the region of the sense strand that contains the codon to be mutated except for an appropriate mismatch in the triplet that is paired with the codon to be deleted. Conditions that may be used in the hybridization are described by Smith, M. and Gillam, S., supra. The temperature will usually range between about 0° C. and 70° C., more usually about 10° C. to 50° C.
- the primer is extended on the phage DNA by reaction with DNA polymerase I, T 4 DNA polymerase, reverse transcriptase or other suitable DNA polymerase.
- the resulting dsDNA is converted to closed circular dsDNA by treatment with a DNA ligase such as T 4 DNA ligase. DNA molecules containing single-stranded regions may be destroyed by S1 endonuclease treatment.
- Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis may be similarly employed to make a mutant IL-2 gene that encodes a mutein having IL-2 activity but having cys 125 changed to serine 125.
- the preferred oligonucleotide primer used in making this mutant IL-2 gene when the phage carries the sense strand of the gene is GATGATGCTTCTGAGAAAAGGTAATC. This oligonucleotide has a C ⁇ G change at the middle base on the triplet that is paired with codon 125 of the IL-2 gene.
- the resulting mutational heteroduplex is then used to transform a competent host organism or cell.
- Replication of the heteroduplex by the host provides progeny from both strands.
- the mutant gene may be isolated from progeny of the mutant strand, inserted into an appropriate expression vector, and the vector used to transform a suitable host organism or cell.
- Preferred vectors are plasmids pBR322, pCR1, and variants thereof, synthetic vectors and the like.
- Suitable host organisms are E.coli, Pseudomonas, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus thuringiensis, various strains of yeast, Bacillus thermophilus, animal cells such as mice, rat or Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, plant cells, animal and plant hosts and the like.
- Hosts may be prokaryotic or eukaryotic (processes for inserting DNA into eukaryotic cells are described in PCT application Nos. US81/00239 and US81/00240 published Sept. 3, 1981). E.coli and CHO cells are the preferred hosts.
- the muteins obtained in accordance with the present invention may be glycosylated or unglycosylated depending on the glycosylation occurring in the native parent protein and the host organism used to produce the mutein. If desired, unglycosylated mutein obtained when E.coli or a Bacillus is the host organism, may be optionally glycosylated in vitro by chemical, enzymatic and other types of modifications known in the art.
- the cysteine residue at position 17 in the amino acid sequence of IFN- ⁇ is changed to serine by a T ⁇ A transition of the first base of codon 17 of the sense strand of the DNA sequence which codes for the mature IFN- ⁇ .
- the site-specific mutagenesis is induced using a synthetic 17-nucleotide primer GCAATTTTCAGAGTCAG which is identical to a seventeen nucleotide sequence on the sense strand of IFN- ⁇ in the region of codon 17 except for a single base mismatch at the first base of codon 17.
- the mismatch is at nucleotide 12 in the primer.
- the genetic code is degenerate and that many of the amino acids may be encoded by more than one codon.
- the base code for serine for example, is six-way degenerate such that the codons, TCT, TCG, TCC, TCA, AGT, and ACG all code for serine.
- the AGT codon was chosen for the preferred embodiment for convenience.
- threonine is encoded by any one of condon ACT, ACA, ACC and ACG. It is intended that when one codon is specified for a particular amino acid, it includes all degenerate codons which encode that amino acid.
- the 17-mer is hybridized to single-stranded M13 phage DNA which carries the antisense strand of the IFN- ⁇ gene.
- the oligonucleotide primer is then extended on the DNA using DNA polymerase I Klenow fragment and the resulting dsDNA is converted to closed circular DNA with T 4 ligase. Replication of the resulting mutational heteroduplex yields clones from the DNA strand containing the mismatch. Mutant clones may be identified and screened by the appearance or disappearance of specific restriction sites, antibiotic resistance or sensitivity, or by other methods known in the art. When cysteine is substituted with serine, the T ⁇ A transition, shown in FIG. 2, results in the creation of a new HinfI restriction site in the structural gene. The mutant clone is identified by using the oligonucleotide primer as a probe in a hybridization screening of the mutation phage plaques.
- the primer will have a single mismatch when hybridized to the parent but will have a perfect match when hybridized to the mutated phage DNA, as indicated in FIG. 2. Hybridization conditions can then be devised where the oligonucleotide primer will preferentially hybridize to the mutation DNA but not to the parent DNA.
- the newly generated HinfI site also serves as a means of confirming the single base mutation in the IFN- ⁇ gene.
- the M13 phage DNA carrying the mutated gene is isolated and spliced into an appropriate expression vector, such as plasmid pTrp3, and E.coli strain MM294 is transformed with the vector. Suitable growth media for culturing the transformants and their progeny are known to those skilled in the art.
- the expressed mutein of IFN- ⁇ is isolated, purified and characterized.
- Examples 1-11 describe the preparation of a mutein of IFN- ⁇ .
- Examples 12-20 describe the preparation of a mutein of IL-2.

The plates were then irradiated with UV light for 10 min.
- Example 8 The process of Example 8 was repeated except that after extraction and separation of the aqueous and organic phases and mixing of the organic phase with PBS at a volume ratio of 3:1 the pH of the mixture was lowered to about 5 by addition of glacial acetic acid. The resulting precipitate was separated by centrifugation at 10000-17000 ⁇ g for 15 min and the pellet was redissolved in 10% w/v SDS, 10 mM DTT, 50 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 5.5, and heated to 80° C. for 5 min.
- Amino acid compositions were determined after 24-72 hr timed hydrolysis of 40 ⁇ g samples of IFN in 200 ⁇ l of 5.7N HCl, 0.1% phenol, at 108° C. Proline and cysteine were determined in the same fashion after performic acid oxidation; in this case, phenol was omitted from the hydrolysis. Tryptophan was analyzed after 24 hr hydrolysis of 400 ⁇ l samples in 5.7N HCl, 10% mercaptoacetic acid (no phenol). Analysis was performed on a Beckman 121MB amino acid analyzer using a single column of AA10 resin.
- the amino acid composition calculated from representative 24-, 48-, 72-hr acid hydrolyses of purified IFN- ⁇ Ser 17 agrees well with that predicted by the DNA sequence of the cloned IFN gene, minus the missing N-terminal methionine.
- the amino acid sequence of the first 58 residues from the amino acid terminus of purified IFN was determined on a 0.7 mg sample in a Beckman 890C sequanator with 0.1M Quadrol buffer.
- PTH amino acids were determined by reverse-phase HPLC on an Altex ultrasphere ODS column (4.6 ⁇ 250 mm) at 45° C. eluted at 1.3 min at 40% buffer B, and 8.4 min from 40-70% buffer B, where buffer A was 0.0115M sodium acetate, 5% tetrahydrofuran (THF), pH 5.11 and buffer B was 10% THF in acetonitrile.
- the N-terminal amino acid sequence of IFN- ⁇ Ser 17 determined matches the expected sequence predicted from the DNA sequence, except for the absence of N-terminal methionine.
- E. coli transformed with pSY2501 were grown in the following medium:
- the harvested material was concentrated approximately 3-fold by circulating it through a microporous cross-flow filter under pressure.
- the concentrated cells were diafiltered against deionized water until the harvest material was concentrated 4-5 fold.
- the cells were then disrupted by passing them through a Manton-Gaulion homogenizer at ⁇ 4.1-5.5 ⁇ 10 4 kpa.
- SDS-sodium phosphate buffer was added to a final concentration of 2% SDS, 0.08M sodium phosphate and homogenization was continued for one hr.
- Solid DTT was then added to a final concentration of 50 mM and the homogenizate was heated to 90° ⁇ 5° C. for 10 min.
- the resulting cell suspension was extracted with 2-butanol at a 1:1 2-butanol:suspension volume ratio in a static mixer. The mixture was then centrifuged and the 2-butanol rich phase was collected.
- the 2-butanol rich phase was mixed with 2.5 volumes of 0.1% SDS in PBS.
- Solid DTT was added to a final concentration of 2 mM.
- the pH of the mixture was adjusted to 6.2 ⁇ 0.1 with glacial acetic acid and this mixture was centrifuged.
- the resulting paste was collected and resuspended in PBS+10% SDS with pH adjustment to 8.5 ⁇ 0.1 using 1N NaOH.
- Solid DTT was added to a final concentration of 100 mM and the suspension was heated to 90° ⁇ 5° C. for 10 min. The suspension was then cooled to ⁇ 25° C., the pH was adjusted to 5.5 ⁇ 0.1 with glacial acetic acid, and the solution was filtered.
- the solution was then applied to a Sephacryl S-200 pre column and the fractions containing highest interferon activities were pooled and concentrated by ultrafiltration with a 10 Kdal molecular weight cutoff.
- the concentrate was oxidized by adding equimolar amounts of protein and iodosobenzoic acid into a reaction vessel containing 2 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 0.1% SDS and 1 mM EDTA. The pH was controlled during oxidation at 9.0 ⁇ 0.1 with 0.5N NaoH and adjusted to 5.5 ⁇ 0.2 when oxidation was complete. After oxidation the concentrate was again passed through the ultrafiltration unit with a 10 Kdal molecular weight cutoff.
- the concentrate was applied to a main Sephacryl S-200 column and the fractions were analyzed by SDS-PAGE to determine those containing no high molecular weight contaminants. Those fractions were pooled and passed through the ultrafiltration unit. The filtered concentrate was then fractionated on a Sephadex G-75 column. SDS-PAGE analysis of the fractions was made to determine those containing no low or high molecular weight contaminants. Those fractions were pooled for desalting.
- IFN- ⁇ ser17 was compared antigenically to IFN- ⁇ produced from diploid fibroblasts using virus neutralizing tests.
- a polyvalent antiserum to the diploid fibroblast IFN- ⁇ was prepared in rabbits. This antiserum blocked the antiviral activity of both the diploid fibroblast IFN- ⁇ and the IFN- ⁇ ser17 in the virus neutralization tests, indicating the two proteins are indistinguishable antigenically.
- the purified IFN- ⁇ ser17 was compared in its antiviral activity to naturally produced IFN- ⁇ . Inhibition of vesicular stomatitis virus replication in diploid foreskin fibroblast (HS27F) was indistinguishable from that of the natural molecule. Similarly, inhibition of herpes simplex virus type 1 in HS27F fibroblasts by the natural and mutant proteins were comparable.
- IFN- ⁇ ser17 for continuous cell lines was compared with that of naturally produced IFN- ⁇ .
- T24 cells derived from a transitional cell carcinoma were treated with 200 units/ml of the proteins. Cell growth was inhibited significantly (p ⁇ 0.02) by both proteins.
- IFN- ⁇ ser17 The ability of IFN- ⁇ ser17 to stimulate NK cell (spontaneous cell mediated cytotoxicity) activity was tested.
- NK cell cytoxicity was determined by measuring the amount of label released into the medium. The results of these tests are reported in Table I below.
- the target cells were killed more effectively by the IFN- ⁇ ser17 -treated cells than by the unteated cells.
- Phase I clinical trials to verify the safety of IFN- ⁇ ser17 in humans have been initiated. These trails involve administering the protein to patients intramuscularly and intravenously at doses ranging between 1 ⁇ 10 5 units (1 ⁇ g of protein) to 400 ⁇ 10 6 units. In initial phase I clinical trials no unexpected adverse effects have occurred.
- IFN- ⁇ ser17 preparation exhibits specific activity levels very close to or better than that of native IFN- ⁇ .
- IFN- ⁇ ser17 has no free sulfhydryl groups but indicates one --S--S-- bond between the only remaining cysteines at positions 31 and 141.
- the protein does not readily form oligomers and appears to be substantially in the monomeric form.
- the IFN- ⁇ ser17 obtained in accordance with this invention may be formulated either as a single product or mixtures of the various forms, into pharmaceutically acceptable preparations in inert, nontoxic, nonallergenic, physiologically compatible carrier media for clinical and therapeutic uses in cancer therapy or in conditions where interferon therapy is indicated and for viral infections such as herpes simplex virus I and II, hepatitis B virus, common cold viruses, and rhinovirus.
- inert, nontoxic, nonallergenic, physiologically compatible carrier media for clinical and therapeutic uses in cancer therapy or in conditions where interferon therapy is indicated and for viral infections such as herpes simplex virus I and II, hepatitis B virus, common cold viruses, and rhinovirus.
- Such media include but are not limited to distilled water, physiological saline, Ringer's solution, Hank's solution and the like.
- Other nontoxic stabilizing and solubilizing additives such as dextrose, HSA (human serum albumin) and the like may be optimally included.
- the therapeutic formulations may be administered orally or parenterally such as intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal and subcutaneous administrations. Preparations of the modified IFN- ⁇ of the present invention may also be used for topical applications in appropriate media normally utilized for such purposes.
- the IFN- ⁇ mutein may be administered either locally or systemically by itself or in combination or conjunction with other therapeutic agents such as acyclovir for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes.
- the dose of mutein administered to human patients will depend on whether it is administered continuously (including intermittant) or as a bolus.
- the amounts administered continuously will typically be lowered than the amounts administered as a bolus. The amount will usually be in the range of about 1 ⁇ 10 5 to 4 ⁇ 10 8 units, more usually about 1 ⁇ 10 6 to 1 ⁇ 10 7 units.
- the principal advantages of the above described mutein of IFN- ⁇ lie in the elimination of a free sulfhydryl group at position 17 in IFN- ⁇ , thereby forcing the protein to form correct disulfide links between cys 31 and cys 141 and to assume the conformation ostensibly required for full biological activity.
- the increased specific activity of the IFN- ⁇ ser17 enables the use of smaller dosages in therapeutic uses.
- the IFN- ⁇ ser17 protein does not form dimers and oligomers so readily as the microbially produced IFN- ⁇ . This facilitates purification of the protein and enhances its stability.
