Definitions

  • This invention relates to recombinant DNA, protein purification, and Alzheimer's disease.
  • Alzheimer's disease has two major neuropathological characteristics. The first is the presence of intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles, the major protein component of which is hyperphosphorylated tau, a microtubule-associated protein. Electron microscopy shows neurofibrillary tangles to comprise paired helical filaments ("PHF") (Selkoe (1991) Neuron 6:487-498).
  • PHF paired helical filaments
  • Amyloid deposits consist of polymers of the amyloid peptide A3, which is proteolytically derived from amyloid precursor protein ("APP").
  • APP amyloid precursor protein
  • Apolipoprotein E (“apoE”) is a 34.2 kDa protein synthesized by the liver and various peripheral tissues, including kidney, adrenal gland, astrocytes and reticuloendothelial cells.
  • ApoE is synthesized as precursor (“preapoE") with an 18-amino acid signal peptide. After the intracellular cleavage of the signal peptide, apoE is glycosylated with carbohydrate chains containing sialic acid and secreted as sialo apoE. It is subsequently desialated in plasma.
  • apoE is incorporated into lipoproteins and directs their catabolism, following recognition and binding by cell surface receptors. ApoE can be isolated from plasma and culture media of HepG-2 cells as a component of lipoprotein particles.
  • e4/E4, E3/E3, and E2/E2 There are three common alleles that encode apoE in humans.
  • the three alleles designated e4, e3, and e2 give rise to three homozygous phenotypes (i.e., E4/E4, E3/E3, and E2/E2) and three heterozygous phenotypes (i.e., E4/E3, E3/E2, and E4/E2) (Zannis and Breslow (1981)
  • apoE4 contains Arg at position 112 and Arg at position 158.
  • ApoE3 contains Cys at position 112, and Arg at position 158.
  • ApoE2 contains Cys at positions 112 and 158.
  • Electron microscopy studies showed that a combination of apoE4 with A/3 resulted in the formation of monofibrils 7 nm in diameter.
  • the matrix of monofibrils formed with apoE4 was much denser than that with apoE3 (Sanan et al. (1994) J. Clin. Invest. 94:860-869).
  • a second hypothesis is that apoE3 binds to tau, and protects it from phosphorylation in the microtubule- binding domain, while apoE4 does not bind to tau (Strittmatter et al. (1994) Exper. Neurol. 125:163-171). As a result, tau gets hyperphosphorylated and can no longer bind efficiently and stabilize microtubules, leading to the formation of neurofibrillary tangles inside neurons.
  • glycosylated apolipoprotein E2 having a conformation which is the same as, or which closely approximates, its native conformation, i.e., it is not denatured and then renatured, and exists in lipid-free as well as lipid- bound forms, binds to synthetic peptide amyloid peptide A/3 with a higher affinity than do apolipoproteins E3 and E4.
  • the invention features an isolated apolipoprotein E2 capable of specifically binding to amyloid peptide A3 with a higher affinity than apolipoproteins E3 or E4;
  • the apolipoprotein E2 can be produced by (a) transforming a eukaryotic (preferably mammalian) host cell with DNA encoding apolipoprotein E2; (b) culturing the host cell; and (c) isolating the apolipoprotein E2 under non-denaturing conditions.
  • apolipoprotein E2 refers both to the naturally-occurring amino sequence of the protein, and to variants in which there are one or more amino acid substitutions which do not substantially alter the conformation or other properties of the molecule. Examples of such mutant forms of E2 are given below in Table 1; these mutants not only retain native conformation when expressed in mammalian host cells, they exhibit superior binding properties compared to the native sequence.
  • Apolipoprotein E2 can be isolated under nondenaturing conditions by subjecting the growth medium from a culture of mammalian cells that express recombinant apolipoprotein E2 to cation exchange chromatography to produce an apolipoprotein E2-enriched cation exchange protein fraction, and then subjecting the resulting pool of apolipoprotein E2-enriched cation exchange fractions to anion exchange chromatography, thereby producing an anion exchange fraction highly enriched for apolipoprotein E2.
  • the invention also features a method for inhibiting the progression of Alzheimer's disease in a patient with early onset Alzheimer's disease, or inhibiting the onset of Alzheimer's disease in a patient genetically at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, by administering to the brain of the patient an effective amount of apolipoprotein E2 which is glycosylated, exists in lipid-free or lipid-bound forms, and has native or close to the native conformation produced by brain cells.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the steps leading to production of plasmids of the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a series of gel electrophoresis and autoradiography panels of apoE2 secretion from cells of the invention.
  • Fig. 3 is a series of panels illustrating apoE2, E3, and E4 expression by various cell types using the Semliki Forest Virus expression system.
  • Fig. 4 is a pair of panels illustrating apoE expression in a bioreactor setting.
  • Fig. 5 is a set of panels showing elution profiles of apoE from ion exchange columns.
  • Fig. 6 is a set of panels showing binding to A/3 of apolipoprotein E obtained by expression in eukaryotic cells.
  • the apoE experiment shows that the ability of apolipoprotein E produced by eukaryotic cells to bind to A ⁇ follows the order: apolipoprotein E2 > apolipoprotein E3 > apolipoprotein E4.
  • Fig. 7 is a set of panels showing binding to A ⁇ of apolipoprotein E3 and apolipoprotein E4 obtained by the baculovirus expression system.
  • the ability of apoE3 and apoE4 forms thus obtained to bind to A/3 is different from that of apoE expressed by eukaryotic cells (Fig. 6) .
  • Fig. 6 is a set of panels showing binding to A/3 of apolipoprotein E obtained by expression in eukaryotic cells.
  • Fig. 8 is a set of panels showing binding to A/3 of VLDL, apoE3 and apoE4. The ability of apoE3 and apoE4 forms thus obtained to bind to A/3 is different from that of apoE expressed by eukaryotic cells (Fig. 6) .
  • Fig. 9 is a panel showing distribution of apolipoprotein E secreted by C127 cells to lipid-free and lipid-bound forms.
  • Fig. 10 is a diagram predicting binding of apolipoprotein E2 derivatives obtained from eukaryotic cells to A/3 which differ from the binding of naturally occurring apolipoproteins E3, E4 and native-sequence E2.
  • the present invention provides recombinant apolipoprotein E2 in its native conformation. Because of its native conformation, the apoE2 of the invention binds to the A ⁇ peptide with greater affinity than apoE3 or apoE4.
  • the pUC-E3 plasmid was amplified and mutagenized by PCR as described in Fig. IA, using a set of 5' and 3' amplification primers and a set of mutagenic primers.
  • the mutagenic primers were designed to replace Cys-112 with Arg, and to replace Arg- 158 with Cys.
  • the 5' external amplification primer extended from nucleotides 223 to 241 of the apoE gene (sequence numbering of Karathanassis, Haddad, Salmon and Zannis, Biochemistry and Biology of Plasma Lipoproteins 1985, pp. 475-493).
  • the 3' external amplification primer extended between nucleotides 1102-1082 in the 3' region of the cDNA.
  • codons 154-161 (nucleotides 576- 595) for alteration of Arg-158 to Cys-158 in order to produce apoE2.
  • Another set of mutagenic sense and antisense oligonucleotides covered codons 108-113 (nucleotides 438-457) for the change of Cys-112 to Arg-112 in order to produce apoE4.
  • Arg-158 ⁇ Cys For alteration of Arg-158 ⁇ Cys, two separate amplifications were utilized. The first utilized the 5' external primer and the antisense mutagenic primer covering codon 158. The second utilized the 3' external primer and the sense mutagenic primer covering codon 158. An aliquot of 4% from each reaction was mixed and amplified with the 5' and 3' external primers. The amplified fragment containing the Arg-158 ⁇ Cys mutation was used to replace the corresponding region in the pUC- E3 plasmid, as shown in Fig. IA, giving rise to pUC-E2 plasmid.
  • the amplified fragment containing the Cys-112 ⁇ Arg mutation was used to replace the corresponding region of the pUC- E3 plasmid, as shown in Fig. IA, giving rise to pUC-E4 plasmid (Fig. IA) .
  • the DNA insert obtained from the pUC-E2 derivative was initially cloned into the BamHl site of the pcDNA under the control of the CMV pcDNA promoter or into the BamHl and Bglll site of Semliki Forest Virus vector (pSFV) to generate the pcDNA-E2 derivative and the pSFV- E2 derivatives.
  • the apoE2 insert was then excised from the pUC-E2 derivative, blunt-ended with the Klenow fragment of the DNA polymerase I, and ligated to Xhol linkers digested with Xhol and cloned into the Xhol site of pBMT3X vector to generate pBMT3X-E2, expression plasmid (Fig. IB) .
  • a similar approach was utilized to generate the pBMT3X-E3 and E4 plasmids.

  • Superimposition of the gel on the autoradiogram established the charge and size differences between the plasma apoE3 and the newly synthesized protein (Fig. 2A",B",C") .
  • This analysis shown in Figs. 2A-C" established that the newly synthesized apoE2 is more acidic by one and two positive charges than apoE3 and apoE4, respectively.

  • These systems consist of two plasmids - pSFVl and pSFV- helper-2.
  • the first plasmid represents the cDNA copy of Semliki Forest Virus genome with a deleted subgenomic (26S) coding region for the structural proteins of the virus, followed by a cassette of polylinker (BamHl-X al- Smal) and translational stop codons in all three reading frames.
  • the cDNA of human apoE2 was cut with Bglll and BamHl, present in the polylinker region of pSFV, and inserted via a BamHl Bglll site to create vector pSFV apoE2.
  • apoE2 cDNA expression is driven by the 26S promoter in the context of SFV genome.
  • the second plasmid is pSFV-helper 2, which retains the 5' and 3' signals needed for RNA replication, as well as the complete structural region, including its promoter, but which lacks a region required for packaging of SFV RNA into nucleocapsids.
  • the pivotal step in the development of the pSFV expression system is helper catalyzed packaging of pSFVcE2 RNA.
  • the system allows rapid transient expression of apoE2 cDNA mutants, allowing fast testing of their functions, physicochemical properties, and neuronal toxicity.
  • plasmid pSFV apoE2, or pSFV-helper 2 was transcribed in vitro under the control of an SP6 promoter. Both SFV apoE2 and SFV-helper 2 RNAs were then cotransfected by electroporation into BHK cells.
  • the SFV apoE2 RNA encodes the enzymes for RNA replication (amplification) and transcription, whereas SFV helper 2 RNA supports the production of the structural proteins via its subgenomic region. Since the helper lacks the region required for RNA packaging, RNA derived from this vector will not be packaged. Thus, transfections with recombinant and helper RNA produce only virus particles that carry recombinant RNA.
  • the viruses produced provide a one-round virus stock. After infection of cells with the recombinant virus, the cells will only express the heterologous protein (apoE2) .

The mixture was analyzed by gel electrophoresis in two gels (10% polyacrylamide - 2% SDS) and Western blotting. After blotting one of the filters (Panel A) was treated with mouse monoclonal antibody against A/3 (Fig. 6A) and the other two panels (Panels B&C) with goat polyclonal antibody against apoE.
  • FIG. 6A-C show that the ability of apoE produced by these cells to bind to A ⁇ follows the order apoE2>apoE3>apoE4. Similar results are obtained with apoE produced by apoE produced by the different expression systems described before. This binding behavior of apoE is different from that of apoE produced by the baculovirus expression system (Fig. 7) or VLDL (Fig. 8) (Strittmatter et al. (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.

  • Analysis of the offspring will provide information as to whether a specific apoE variant protects or accelerates the development of the AD phenotype in relationship to the parent AD mouse. For instance, crossing of the AD prone mouse with the EX1 or EX6 mouse will confirm that strong binding of apoE to A ⁇ is beneficial and weak binding is detrimental. If strong binding is beneficial, we will anticipate that the EX6 form will protect from AD when it is introduced into the AD-prone mouse, whereas EX1 will accelerate the development of AD.
