- the object of the invention is to provide a method of producing a protein disulfide redox agent, comprising i) cloning a DNA sequence coding for said protein disulfide redox agent from a donor cell, ii) making a DNA construct wherein said DNA sequence is under control of regulatory elements, iii) introducing said DNA construct into a host cell, iv) growing said host cell under conditions conductive to the production of the protein disulfide redox agent, and v) recovering and purifying said protein disulfide redox agent.
- the protein disulfide redox agent is secreted into the medium.
- the DNA construct is introduced into a host cell of a spe ⁇ cies different from the donor cell
- the protein disulfide redox agent is expressed in the form of a proenzyme and the cell is cultured in the presence of a proteolytic enzyme capable of converting the proenzyme of the protein disulfide redox agent into a mature enzyme.
- said donor and host cells are microbial, either bacterial cells or a fungal cells.
- both said donor and host cells are bacterial.
- said bacterial cells is gram-positive and one is gram-negative.
- both said donor and host cells are fungal.
- one of said microbial cells is bacterial and one is fungal cell.
- the bacterial cell is a cell of a gram-positive bacterium, e.g. of the genus Bacillus or Streptomyces or a cell of a gram-negative bacterium, e.g. of the genus Escherichia
- the fungal cell is a yeast cell, e.g. of the genus Saccharomyces, or a cell of a filamentous fungus, e.g. of the genus Aspergillus or Fusarium.
- said Esherichia is E. coli
- said Aspergillus is Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, or Aspergillus nidulans
- said Bacillus is Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus lentus, or Bacillus subtilis.
- the DNA sequence of the DNA construct of the invention may be isolated by well-known methods.
- the DNA sequence may, for instance, be isolated by establishing a cDNA or genomic library from an organism expected to harbour the sequence, and screening for positive clones by conventional procedures. Examples of such procedures are hybridization to oligonucleotide probes syn ⁇ thesized on the basis of any of the full amino acid sequences shown in Tables 1 and 2, or a subsequence thereof in accordance with standard techniques (cf.
- a preferred method of isolating a DNA construct of the invention from a cDNA or genomic library is by use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using degenerate oligonucleotide probes prepared on the basis of the amino acid sequence of the parent protein disulfide redox agent of the invention.
- PCR polymerase chain reaction
- the PCR may be carried out using the techniques described in US Patent No. 4,683,202 or by R.K. Saiki et al. (1988).
- the DNA sequence of the DNA construct of the invention may be prepared synthetically by established standard methods, e.g. the phosphoamidite method described by Beaucage and Caruthers (1981 ), or the method described by Matthes et al. ( 1984).
- oligonucleoti- des are synthesized, e.g. in an automatic DNA synthesizer, purified, annealed, ligated and cloned in appropriate vectors.
- the DNA construct may be of mixed genomic and synthetic, mixed syn ⁇ thetic and cDNA or mixed genomic and cDNA origin prepared by ligating frag ⁇ ments of synthetic, genomic or cDNA origin (as appropriate), the fragments corresponding to various parts of the entire recombinant DNA molecule, in ac- cordance with standard techniques.
- One method would be to incorporate the cloned protein disulfide redox agent gene, as part of a retrievable vector, into a mutator strain of Eschericia coli. Another method would involve generating a single stranded form of the protein disulfide redox agent gene, and then annealing the fragment of DNA containing the protein disulfide redox agent gene with another DNA fragment such that a portion of the protein disulfide redox agent gene remained single stranded. This discrete, single stranded region could then be exposed to any of a number of mutagenizing agents, including, but not limited to, sodium bisulfite, hydroxylamine, nitrous acid, formic acid, or hydralazine.
- these mutations can be introduced using synthetic oligonucleotides. These oligonucleotides contain nucleotide sequences flanking the desired mutation sites; mutant nucleotides are inserted during oligonucleotide synthesis. In a preferred method, a single stranded gap of DNA, bridging the protein disulfide redox agent gene, is created in a vector bearing the protein disulfide redox agent gene.
- the synthetic nucleotide, bearing the desired mutation is annealed to a homologous portion of the single-stranded DNA.
- the remaining gap is then filled in by DNA polymerase I (Klenow fragment) and the construct is ligated using T4 ligase.
- DNA polymerase I Klenow fragment
- T4 ligase A specific example of this method is described in Morinaga et al., (1984, Biotechnology 2:646-639). According to Morinaga et al., a fragment within the gene is removed using restriction endonuclease.
- the vector/gene now containing a gap, is then denatured and hybridized to a vector/gene which, instead of containing a gap, has been cleaved with another restriction endonuclease at a site outside the area involved in the gap.
- a single-stranded region of the gene is then available for hybridization with mutated oligonucleotides, the remaining gap is filled in by the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I, the insertions are ligated with T4 DNA ligase, and, after one cycle of replication, a double-stranded plasmid bearing the desired mutation is produced.
- the Morinaga method obviates the additional manipulation of constructing new restriction sites, and therefore facilitates the generation of mutations at multiple sites.
- a protein disulfide redox agent gene can be expressed, in enzyme form, using an expression vector.
- An expression vector generally falls under the definition of a cloning vector, since an expression vector usually includes the components of a typical cloning vector, namely, an element that permits autonomous replication of the vector in a microorganism independent of the genome of the microorganism, and one or more phenotypic markers for selection purposes.
- An expression vector includes control sequences encoding a promoter, operator, ribosome binding site, translation initiation signal, and, optionally, a repressor gene or various activator genes.
- nucleotides encoding a "signal sequence" may be inserted prior to the coding sequence of the gene.
- a target gene to be treated according to the invention is operably linked to the control sequences in the proper reading frame.
- Promoter sequences that can be incorporated into plasmid vectors, and which can support the transcription of the mutant protein disulfide redox agent gene include but are not limited to the prokaryotic ⁇ -lactamase promoter (Villa-Kamaroff, et al., 1978, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.
- the expression vector carrying the DNA construct of the invention may be any vector which may conveniently be subjected to recombinant DNA procedures, and the choice of vector will often depend on the host cell into which it is to be introduced.
- the vector may be an autonomously replicating vector, i.e. a vector which exists as an extrachromosomal entity, the replication of which is independent of chromosomal replication, e.g. a plasmid, a bacteriophage or an extrachromosomal element, minichromosome or an artificial chromosome.
- the vector may be one which, when introduced into a host cell, is integrated into the host cell genome and replicated together with the chromo ⁇ some ⁇ ) into which it has been integrated.
- the DNA sequence should be operably connected to a suitable promoter sequence.
- the promoter may be any DNA sequence which shows transcriptional activity in the host cell of choice and may be derived from genes encoding proteins either homologous or heterologous to the host cell.
- suitable promoters for directing the transcription of the DNA construct of the invention, especially in a bacterial host are the promoter of the lac operon of E.coli, the Streptomyces coelicolor agarase gene dag A promoters, the promoters of the Bacillus licheniformis ⁇ -amylase gene (amy ), the promoters of the Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase gene (amyM), the promoters of the Bacillus Amy/o/iquefaciens ⁇ -amylase (amyQ), the promoters of the Bacillus subtilis xylA and xylB genes etc.
- examples of useful promoters are those derived from the gene encoding A. oryzae TAKA amylase, Rhizomucor miehei aspartic proteinase, A. niger neutral ⁇ -amylase, A. niger acid stable ⁇ -amylase, A. /7 grer glucoamylase, Rhizomucor miehei Y ⁇ ase, A. oryzae alkaline protease, A. oryzae triose phosphate isomerase or A. nidulans acetamidase.
- the expression vector of the invention may also comprise a suitable transcription terminator and, in eukaryotes, polyadenylation sequences operably connected to the DNA sequence encoding the protein disulfide redox agent of the invention. Termination and polyadenylation sequences may suitably be derived from the same sources as the promoter.
- the vector may further comprise a DNA sequence enabling the vector to replicate in the host cell in question.

- a selectable marker e.g. a gene the product of which complements a defect in the host cell, such as the dal genes from B.subtilis or B./icheniformis, or one which confers antibiotic resistance such as ampiciliin, kanamycin, chloramphenicol or tetracyclin resistance.
- Aspergillus selection markers include amdS, argB, niaD and sC, a marker giving rise to hygromycin resistance.
- the selection may be accomplished by co-transformation, e.g. as described in WO 91 /17243.
- the protein disulfide redox agents of the invention comprising a variant of any of the amino acid sequences shown in tables 1 or 2 may further ⁇ more comprise a preregion permitting secretion of the expressed protein disulfide isomerase into the culture medium. If desirable, this preregion may be native to the protein disulfide isomerase of the invention or substituted with a different preregion or signal sequence, conveniently accomplished by substitution of the DNA sequences encoding the respective preregions.
- the cell of the invention either comprising a DNA construct or an expression vector of the invention as defined above is advantageously used as a host cell in the recombinant production of a polypeptide of the invention.
- the cell may be transformed with the DNA construct of the invention, conveniently by integrating the DNA construct in the host chromosome. This integration is generally con ⁇ sidered to be an advantage as the DNA sequence is more likely to be stably main ⁇ tained in the cell. Integration of the DNA constructs into the host chromosome may be performed according to conventional methods, e.g. by homologous or heterologous recombination. Alternatively, the cell may be transformed with an expression vector as described above in connection with the different types of host cells.

- the transformation of the bacteria may for instance be effected by protoplast transformation or by using competent cells in a manner known perse.
- the yeast organism may favourably be selected from a species of Saccharomyces or Schizosaccharomyces, e.g. Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
- the filamentous fungus may advantageously belong to a species oi Aspergillus, e.g. Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus niger.
- a strain of a Fusarium species e.g. F. oxyspo- rum

- a suitable procedure for transformation of Aspergillus host cells is described in EP 238 023.
- a suitable method of transforming Fusarium species is described by Malardier et al., 1989.

- pHD389 E.coli expression vector, (Lopez - Otin et al., J. Biol. Chem., in press)
- LB agar Lia-Bertani medium/agar, CR. Harwood and S.M. Cutting (Ed.)
- N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis of recombinant dsbA was carried out following electroblotting using an Applied Biosystems 473A protein sequencer operated according to the manufacturers instructions.
- the E. coli dsbA gene sequence was collected from the GenBank database (accession number M77746) . Based on this sequence a PCR primer containing the restriction enzyme Cla I recognition sequence and 23 bases of the dsbA 5' coding sequence (primer 5513) and a PCR primer containing the restriction enzyme Sail recognition sequence and 23 bases complementary to the dsbA 3' coding sequence (primer 5512) were constructed.
- Total DNA was extracted from E. coli strain WA803 using standard procedures.
- This DNA was used without further modification as template in a PCR reaction (20 cycles) using the primers 5513 and 5512 and the Perkin Elmer- cetus AmplitaqTM Taq polymerase following the manufacturer's instructions.
- a PCR fragment corresponding to the size of the dsbA gene was recovered from an agarose gel and digested with the restriction enzymes Clal and Sail.
- the E. coli expression vector pHD 389 was digested with the same enzymes, and the large vector fragment was ligated to the digested PCR fragment.
- the ligation mixture was used to transform E. coli strain WA803. After 24 hours of growth at 30°C using ampicillin selection a transformant was selected and subsequent DNA sequence analysis using the DNA sequencing kit SequenaseTM showed that a sequence identical to the published dsbA gene sequence was integrated between the lambda PR promoter and the fd terminator.
- This plasmid was termed pCaHj 435, and the E. coli strain harbouring the plasmid was termed CaHj 435.
- a plasmid map of pCaHj 435 is shown in figure 1 . Expression of dsbA in E. coli phage lambda
- the dsbA gene is under control of the promoter PR from the E. coli phage lambda. PR is repressed by Cl repressor also harboured by the plasmid pCaHj 435. However the Cl repressor allele used in this plasmid is temperature sensitive being active at 30°C but inactive at 42°C. Thus the dsbA gene is repressed at 30°C but expressed at 42°C.
- the strain CaHj 435 was grown in shake flasks containing the medium Terrific Broth at 30°C and 200 rpm until OD600 reached 0.2. Then the shake flasks were transferred to 42°C (200 rpm) for 18 hours.
- the cells were isolated by centrifugation (2500 x g, 15 min.) and resuspended in 100 ml 20% (W/V) sucrose buffered with 10 mM Tris/HCI pH 7.0. EDTA were added to a final concentration of 15 mM.
- the cell suspension was incubated on ice for 15 min. and then the cells were collected by centrifugation (2500 x g, 15 min.).
- the cells were resuspended in 70 ml of water by vigorous shaking and subsequently incubated on ice (10 min).
- the suspension was centrifuged (2500 x g, 15 min.) and the supernatant containing the soluble periplasmic fraction was isolated. Tris/HCI pH 7.0 was added to a final concentration of 5 mM.
- the dsbA gene product was then purified by DEAE anion exchange chromatogra ⁇ phy.
- a column containing 20 ml of DEAE Sephadex A-50 purchased from Pharmacia Fine Chemicals AB was equilibrated with 10 mM Tris/HCI pH 7.0.
- the osmotic shock preparation was applied to the column, and then the column was washed with 200 ml 10 mM Tris/HCI pH 7.0.
- the dsbA gene product was eluted with 50 ml 50 mM NaCI, 10 mM Tris/HCI pH 7.0.
- SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that more than 90% of the protein isolated corresponded to the size of the dsbA gene.
- the E. coli dsbA gene sequence was collected from the GenBank database (accession number M77746). Based on the dsbA sequence from GenBank and pCaHj435 (the dsbA expression plasmid in E. coli (WA803)) a PCR primer containing the restriction enzyme Nsil recognition sequence and 27 bases of the dsbA 5'sequence encoding the putative N-terminal (J.C.A. Bardwell et al. Cell, 67, p.
- 10 ⁇ 1 x PCR buffer Super TaqTM DNA polymerase
- a PCR fragment corresponding to the expected size of dsbA was recovered from an agarose gel and digested with the restriction enzymes EcoRI and Pstl.
- the plasmid pPL1759, fig. 2 was digested with the restriction enzymes Pstl- EcoRI and the large vector fragment was ligated to the PCR fragment.
- Ligation mixture was transformed into Bacillus subtilis DN 1 885. Selection for transformants and reisolation of those was performed on LB medium containing 10 //g Kanamycin/ml, I0 mM potassium phosphate pH 7,0, and 0,4% glucose.
- DNA analysis of the plasmids from those cells using a DNA sequencing Kit showed the expected sequence of the promoter and signal peptide encoding regions of amyL (P.L. Joergensen et al., Gene, 96, p. 37-41 , 1 990) fused to the above mentioned putative mature dsbA encoding region.
- This plasmid was termed pJAI46 and a B. subtilis DN1 885 strain harbouring this plasmid was termed JA146.
- a plasmid map of pJAI46 is shown in fig. 3.
- Strain JA146 was grown for 18 hours in Terrific Yeast medium at 37°C with I0 ⁇ g/ml Kanamycin and 0.4% glucose in 20 ml M-tubes at 280 rpm. Cells were harvested at 1 5 000 x g for 10 minutes and the supernatant was analyzed for DsbA protein. SDS-PAGE of the supernatant showed that a protein of the size of mature DsbA protein was secreted into the media. Using the trypsin inhibitor assay it was shown that the DsbA protein has disulphide isomerase activity.
- the N-terminal amino acid sequence was analyzed as described above.
- the N- terminal amino acid of DsbA determined was : Ala-Ala-Gln-Tyr-Glu-Asp-Gly-Lys- Gln-
- the tress was put in a plastic bag and incubated for 60 minutes at 30°C. Then the roller was removed and the hair was rinsed with water, dried with a cotton towel, combed and air dried.
- Tresses of washed brown and fair human European hair (1 gram) was wetted with water and tightly wound on curling rollers. 1 ml of waving solution with the following composition and temperature of 30°C was applied to the tresses.
- control tresses and enzyme treated hair tresses were washed in either water or a mild shampoo, rinsed and air dried.
