Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a component for a vaccine against meningococci and to a vaccine comprising such a component .
  • Meningococcal meningitis is a serious illness having a mortality rate of approximately 10%. Survivors of meningococcal meningitis may be left with various degrees of permanent neurological damage. In England and Wales alone there are around 1300 to 1500 meningococcal infection cases reported each year. Meningococci are the bacteria responsible for the disease and are divided into a number of different serogroups according to their immunological activity. Of these, serogroups A, B and C are responsible for about 90% meningococcal cases worldwide, whilst serogroup B accounts for more than 50% of the cases in the UK and many other European countries.
  • meningococci each have polysaccharide- containing coats and it has been found in serogroups A and C that such polysaccharides chemically conjugated to T-dependent protein antigens give rise to promising immunogenicity data from clinical trials in infants.
  • serogroups A and C that such polysaccharides chemically conjugated to T-dependent protein antigens give rise to promising immunogenicity data from clinical trials in infants.
  • B polysaccharide which is thought chemically to resemble human cell surface carbohydrates and may therefore be tolerated by the human immune system.
  • meningococci contain a lipooligosaccharide (LOS) component which is a surface glycolipid that forms a major outer membrane component and possesses a terminal galactose acceptor site for sialic acid. It is thought that sialylation of the LOS in immunotype B meningococci enhances the ability of the organism to evade the human immune response. Accordingly, researchers are investigating alternative target antigens on the surface of serogroup B meningococci, especially various protein antigens more likely to elicit an immune response in humans.
  • LOS lipooligosaccharide
  • the present invention aims to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and provide a component for a vaccine against serogroup B meningococci.
  • the present invention provides a component for a vaccine against serogroup B meningococci, which comprises a mimotope of a surface lipooligosaccharide of a serogroup B meningococcus .
  • a mimotope (conformational homologue) of LOS is capable of eliciting an immune response in vivo .
  • the mimotope is preferable antigenically cross-reactive with a monoclonal antibody of high affinity to the surface lipooligosaccharide.
  • a monoclonal antibody of high affinity to the surface lipooligosaccharide.
  • high affinity is meant having an affinity constant of 10 5 M _1 , preferably at least 10 6 M _1 .
  • Such monoclonal antibodies include the following:
  • Monoclonal antibodies of high affinity to LOS may be prepared using outer membrane complexes as immunizing and detecting antigens according to established protocols (6) (7) .
  • the mimotope preferably comprises a peptide epitope which may be identified by screening a peptide library with the monoclonal antibody.
  • a peptide library such as a heptapeptide library preferably -containing all possible amino acid sequences should be used to give the greatest diversity of potential epitopes against which antigenic cross-reactivity with the monoclonal antibody can be assessed.
  • a random peptide library of this nature is used.
  • the heptapeptide sequence is SMYGSYN or APARQLP.
  • the peptide epitope may comprise a subsequence of any one of the heptapeptide sequences or may be present in a longer peptide incorporating any one of the above heptapeptides or sub-sequences therefrom.
  • the mimotope may comprise an oligopeptide which is structurally more constrained than a linear form of the oligopeptide.
  • An unsubstituted linear oligopeptide such as present free in solution would normally be able to assume a large number of different conformations.
  • an oligopeptide which is structurally constrained, perhaps by having one or usually two or more substituents which reduce in number the possible conformations which it can assume is preferred as the mimotope of the present invention. It is thought that peptides which assume fewer conformations or which have their conformations locked are more likely to elicit an immune response because they present to the binding portion of antibodies a structurally constrained epitope.
  • the oligopeptide may form part of the primary structure of a larger polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of the oligopeptide.
  • the oligopeptide comprises a cyclic peptide, as discussed in further detail below.
  • substituents include covalent linkages to other moieties such as macromolecular structures including biological and non- biological structures.
  • biological structures include carrier proteins such as those described below for enhancing the immunogenicity of the mimotope.
  • non-biological structures include lipid vesicles such as micelles and the like.
  • the oligopeptide comprises a cyclic peptide. Use of a cyclic peptide is thought to be superior to a linear peptide because the cyclic peptide is able to assume fewer conformations that the linear peptide and is therefore structurally more constrained.
  • the cyclic peptide comprises a cyclised portion, which cyclised portion preferably comprises an amino acid sequence, the terminal amino acids of which are linked together by a covalent bond.
  • the covalent bond is conveniently a disulphide bridge, such as found between cysteine residues.
  • the cyclised portion typically comprises a heptapeptide and this heptapeptide can conveniently form part of the amino acid sequence which is flanked by the " amino acids which are linked by the covalent bond to form the cyclised portion.
  • the N terminal of the cyclic peptide preferably comprises an A residue.
  • the oligopeptide may be generated from a peptide library in the same way as described above.
  • a typical oligopeptide is shown in Figure 6 of the drawings.
  • the heptapeptide of the cyclised portion has the sequence SWXHXPY, wherein each X is the same or different and is an amino acid, preferably a naturally-occurring amino acid.
  • Particularly useful sequences are SWLHMPY, SWMHMPY, SWDHMPY and NTIGGYE.
  • SWLHQPY is a particularly preferred heptapeptide sequence which may be flanked by cysteine residues and is preferably terminated at the N terminal by an A residue. It is preferred that the N terminal A residue is unacetylated and preferably does not carry a charge as this may interfere with the immunogenicity of the oligopeptide. It is thought that at least a part of the peptide epitope i present in the heptapeptide.
  • a carrier is conjugated to th mimotope to enhance the immunogenicity thereof.
  • a number o carriers are known for this purpose, including variou immunogenic protein-based carriers such as diptheria toxoid (d CRM ⁇ g 7 )or tetanus toxoid and T-cell peptide.
  • the component for the vaccine may incorporate a plurality o mimotopes of the surface lipooligosaccharide in which eac mimotope is the same or different. By having more than on mimotope, the immunogenicity of the component may be enhanced.

  • Serogroup B meningococcus immunotype LOS3,7,9 is the immunotope responsible for >50% of cases of bacterial meningitis seen in Europe.
  • An aim of this study is to determine whether linear peptides, selected by binding to LOS3,7,9 immunotyping antibodies, will elicit protective antibodies that cross-react with LOS3,7,9, when used to immunise animals. Initially, the binding characteristics of two LOS3,7,9 immunotyping antibodies were studied by resonant mirror analysis. The antibody with the greatest affinity for the LOS antigen was then chosen to "biopan" a heptapeptide phage-display library.
  • Monoclonal immunotyping antibodies The two immunotyping monoclonal antibodies to be studied, 9-2-L379 and 4A8-B2, (kind gifts from Drs . Zollinger and Poolman, respectively) were purified from ascitic fluid by standard Protein G affinity chromatography, and made up to a stock concentration of 1 ⁇ M.
  • Heptapeptide phage display library An M13 peptide phage display library (Ph.D.7) from New England Biolabs was used. The DNA sequences encoding random heptapeptides were inserted in to gene III, which encodes a surface protein expressed at one tip of the phage. The 21 nucleotide insertions were 3' to the sequence coding for the leader sequence so that the peptide is free at its N-terminus and attached to Protein III via its C- terminus .

Real-time kinetic analyses were performed in PBS / 0.05 % (v/v) Tween-20 at 25°C, according to the methods described by the manufacturer.
  • K 0FF Dissociation (K 0FF ) rates were determined by dilution to zero concentration of unbound antibody in the biosensor cuvette at high concentrations of interacting antibody. K 0FF and K Ass rates were calculated from the arc second response per second over various periods of time, and averaged.

  • Peptide synthesis The consensus peptide sequences were identified, and one peptide (#12) was synthesised with a cysteine bridge in the C-terminal position, the same site as its attachment to the M13 phage Protein III (Chiron Technologies, Ltd) . This enabled attachment to a sulfhydryl-coated ELISA plate for immunoassays, or the conjugation to the carrier protein, diptheria toxoid CRM ⁇ 97 for immunising animals, or to biotin for immobilisation to the resonant mirror biosensor cuvette surface.
