Definitions
- This invention relates to improvements in the expression of proteins, particularly of fusion proteins, by recombinant DNA technology, using filamentous fungi as the host. These improvements refer mainly to the use of a new promoter and new DNA constructions containing it.
- Filamentous fungi are known to produce in nature a wide range of homologous proteins in large amounts. For this reason, filamentous fungi have been regarded as attractive hosts for the expression of recombinant proteins. For instance, Aspergillus awamori has been used for the production of recombinant proteins such as bovine chymosin and human lactoferrin.
- thaumatins are proteins with a very sweet taste and the ability to increase the palatability of food. In industry they are currently extracted from the arils of the fruit of the plant Thaumatoccocus daniellii Benth (M.Witty, J.D. Higginbotham, Thaumatin ,1994, CRC Press, Boca Raton, Florida). Thaumatins can be isolated from these arils in at least five different forms (I, II, III, b and c) , thaumatins I and II being the most abundant types in the arils.
- the present invention provides a new expression system that makes use of the promoter from the glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) gene from filamentous fungi of the genus Aspergillus, particularly from Aspergillus awamori .
- gdh glutamate dehydrogenase
- One of the objects of the present invention is a new promoter for the expression of recombinant proteins in filamentous fungi that comprises a nucleotide sequence - or a complementary strand thereof - selected from the group consisting of: (a) the nucleotide sequence numbered 1-740 in the enclosed SEQ ID No. 1; (b) a nucleotide sequence that is analogous to that defined in (a) ; and (c) a nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to that defined in (a) .
- the promoter comprising the sequence defined in (a), i.e. the nucleotide sequence numbered as 1-740 in SEQ ID No. 1, which corresponds to the gdhA promoter of the glutamate dehydrogenase A gene from Aspergillus awamori .
- glutamate dehydrogenase A disclosed herein is the first glutamate dehydrogenase identified and described in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus awamori , there may exist other glutamate dehydrogenases in Aspergillus awamori .
- Aspergillus awamori can be used as a probe for the identification and isolation of other homologous promoters/genes of glutamate dehydrogenases in Aspergillus awamori as well as in other organisms, preferably in filamentous fungi, more preferably in fungi of the genus Aspergillus , still more preferably in Aspergillus awamori and Aspergillus niger , and specially in Aspergillus awamori , following the teachings of the present invention.
- the present invention is not limited to the specific gdhA promoter from Aspergillus awamori disclosed herein but also relates to the promoter of any glutamate dehydrogenase gene from a fungus of the genus Aspergillus with the proviso that it is not from Aspergillus nidulans .
- Aspergilli include Aspergillus awamori , Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus soiae
- the invention relates to a promoter of a glutamate dehydrogenase gene from Aspergillus awamori or Aspergillus niger.
- the invention relates to a promoter of a glutamate dehydrogenase gene from Aspergillus awamori .
- the use of the novel nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 1 or a portion thereof as probe is also a object of the present invention.
- the term "a portion thereof” denotes any part of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID No .1 that is functional as a probe.
- Another object of the present invention is a new DNA sequence, purified and isolated, that encodes a glutamate dehydrogenase protein and that comprises a nucleotide sequence - or a complementary strand thereof - selected from the group consisting of: (a) the nucleotide sequence numbered 741-2245 in the enclosed SEQ ID No. 1; (b) a nucleotide sequence that is analogous to that defined in
- nucleotide sequence encoding a glutamate dehydrogenase is the sequence defined in (a), i.e. the nucleotide sequence numbered as 741-2245 in SEQ ID No. 1.
- the present invention is not limited, however, to the specific gdhA gene from Aspergillus awamori disclosed herein but also relates to any glutamate dehydrogenase gene from a fungus of the genus Aspergillus with the proviso that it is not from Aspergillus nidulans .
- the invention relates to the DNA sequences encoding glutamate dehydrogenase from Aspergillus awamori or Aspergillus niger . In a more preferred embodiment, the invention relates to the DNA sequences encoding glutamate dehydrogenase from Aspergillus awamori .

The selection of a suitable DNA fragment from the glutamate dehydrogenase gene in Neurospora crassa to be used as a probe to get the homologous gene in Aspergillus awamori is not, however, straightforward. In this case, there were no clear homology sequences that could be detected, and therefore what was used was a 2.6 kb BamHI fragment that contained the Neurospora crassa gdh gene. This is a large fragment of DNA, and is certainly not the optimal size fragment.

On the one hand, it allows to reach concentrations of expressed protein of about 100 mg/1, which are one order of magnitude higher than the best described (for example, using the process described in EP 684312, concentrations of about 5-10 mg/1 are attained; see I. Faus et al . , Appi . Microbiol . Biotechnol . , 1998, vol. 49, pp. 393-398) .

- nidulans mutants A686 and A699 grow very poorly in plates with 100 mM ammonium sulfate, whereas three randomly selected transformants grow very well in this medium.
- the residual growth of A ⁇ . nidulans gdhA mutants A686 and A699 in ammonium sulfate as nitrogen source is known (J.R. Kinghorn, J.A. Pateman, Heredity 1973, vol. 31, pp. 427) and is due to the presence of a second glutamate dehydrogenase activity that allows partial growth of these mutants .

Results are shown in Table 1 and they clearly indicated that while the glutamate dehydrogenase activity in strains A686 and A699 was clearly below the detection levels, significant levels of glutamate dehydrogenase activity were obtained in the transformants with the A ⁇ awamori gdhA gene, particularly at 24 and 48 h of growth. Some of the transformants, like A699-4, showed relatively high levels of glutamate dehydrogenase activity, perhaps due to integration of more than one copy of the gdhA gene in the genome of this transformant .

- the filters were washed once in 2 x SSC, 0.1% SDS at 42 2 C for 15 min, once in 0.1 x SSC, 0.1% SDS at 42 2 C for 15 min, and once more in 0.1 x SSC, 0.1% SDS at 55 2 C for 20 min and then autoradiographed with Amersham X-ray film.
- mR ⁇ A was purified from total R ⁇ A by using the Poly(A) Quick mR ⁇ A isolation kit (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif.).
- gdhA steady state transcript ' levels in the cell are higher than those of the ⁇ - actin gene (arrows) indicating that the glutamate dehydrogenase A is expressed from a very efficient promoter.

- Results indicate that expression of both genes (gdhA and ⁇ -actin) is associated with the growth of Aj . awamori but whereas low steady state levels of ⁇ -actin mRNA remained in the cells until 96 hours of growth, the levels of glutamate dehydrogenase mRNA decreased ⁇ drastically after 48 hours.
- the glutamate dehydrogenase enzymatic activity detected when A. awamori is grown in MDFA medium with ammonium sulfate (10 mM) as nitrogen source at different times of the culture is shown in Fig. 8C .
- glutamate dehydrogenase plays a central role in nitrogen utilization by A., awamori , it was also of interest to study if expression of gdhA was regulated by different nitrogen sources.
- very high gdhA transcript (mRNA) levels were obtained in media containing NH 4 + , or asparagine as sole nitrogen sources.
