Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel prokaryotic expression constructs, methods of generating same and methods of using same for expression of recombinant proteins in prokaryotic expression systems.
- the prokaryotic expression constructs of the invention induce periplasmic translocation of the expressed proteins and increase recombinant protein expression and bacterial cell mass, resulting in larger quantities of recombinant protein production and substantial simplification of their isolation and purification to homogeneity.
- Heterologous protein expression has been a technique employed for the past 3 decades, with bacterial expression being recognized as an efficient means of eukaryotic recombinant protein production (Carbon, J., (1993) Genes, Replicators and Centromeres: The First Artificial Chromosomes, in The Early Days of Yeast Genetics. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press pp. 375-390 and Baneyx F., (1999), Recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli Current Opinion in Biotechnology 10: 411-421).
- E. coli ideally suited as an expression system for many proteins: it is easy to genetically manipulate and it grows quickly in inexpensive media.
- it is easy to genetically manipulate and it grows quickly in inexpensive media.
- not every gene can be expressed efficiently in this organism (Makrides, "Strategies for Achieving High-Level Expression of Genes in Escherichia coli", Microbiological Reviews, 60(3): 512-538, 1996; Swartz, "Advances in Escherichia coli Production of Therapeutic Proteins", Curr. Opin. Biotechnol., 12(2): 195-201, 2001).
- Large-scale protein expression in E. coli typically entails bacterial cell growth to high density followed by induction or derepression of the recombinant gene promoter. Tight regulation of the promoter is essential for the synthesis of proteins that may be detrimental to host cells (Makrides, "Strategies for Achieving High-Level Expression of Genes in Escherichia coli", Microbiological Reviews, 60(3):512-538, 1996; Swartz, "Advances in Escherichia coli Production of Therapeutic Proteins", Curr. Opin. Biotechnol., 12(2): 195-201, 2001).
- Widely used induction systems that enable better regulation of specific promoters comprise: thermal induction (pL promoter), chemical induction (trp, tac, trc promoters) or nutritional induction (phoA promoter).
- Proteins expressed in E. coli can be directed either to the cytoplasm or periplasm, or secreted to the extracellular medium (Makrides, "Strategies for Achieving High-Level Expression of Genes in Escherichia coli", Microbiological Reviews, 60(3):512-538, 1996, Swartz, "Advances in Escherichia coli Production of Therapeutic Proteins", Curr. Opin. Biotechnol., 12(2):195-201, 2001).
- Protein transport to the bacterial periplasm is a complex and incompletely understood process.
- the transport of protein through the inner membrane to the periplasmic space requires the inclusion of a signal peptide.
- the presence of a signal peptide does not always ensure efficient protein translocation through the inner membrane.
- Periplasmic protein expression and accumulation offers several advantages for heterologous protein production: (i) the oxidizing environment of the periplasm often facilitates the proper folding of proteins; (ii) due to the relatively small number of E.
- the Human immunodeficiency virus type I trans activating regulatory protein is an 86-amino acid RNA binding protein involved in replication of the virus.
- the TAT protein acts in concert with eukaryotic cellular proteins to greatly increase expression of viral genes.
- the TAT protein increases viral gene expression by acting on the elongation step of transcription. This occurs through the interaction of TAT with a cellular protein kinase complex known as TAK (also known as cyclin Tl/P-TEFb).
- TAT interacts directly with cyclin Tl and recruits the TAK complex to the viral promoter.
- TAK hyperphosphorylates a region of RNA polymerase (RNAP) II known as the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) which is required for TAT transactivation. Phosphorylation of the CTD is thought to regulate the elongation activity of RNAP II. Therefore hyperphosphorylation of the CTD by TAK is believed to promote the formation of highly processive elongation complexes and provide an explanation for the molecular mechanism of the TAT transactivation function (Yang X, et al (1997) TAK, an HIV-associated kinase, is a member of the cyclin-dependent family of protein kinases and is induced by activation of peripheral blood lymphocytes and differentiation of promonocytic cell lines. Proc. Natl.
- Lentivirus TAT proteins specifically associate with a cellular protein kinase, TAK, that phosphorylates the carboxyl-terminal domain of the large subunit of RNA polymerase II: a candidate for a TAT cofactor J. Virol. 69: 1612-1620).
- the HIV1 TAT gene has two exons. TAT amino acids 1-72 are encoded by exon l, ⁇ nd amino acids 73-86 are encoded by exon 2.
- the full- length TAT protein contains a basic region and a cysteine-rich region.
- the basic region i.e., amino acids 49-57
- the cysteine-rich region mediates the formation of metal-linked dimers in vitro (Frankel, A. D. et al, (1988) Science 240: 70-73; Frankel, A.
- TAT basic region or derivatives thereof, such as, for example, a TAT peptide flanked by two Glycine residues
- TAT peptide flanked by two Glycine residues Fawell et al, (1994) " TAT-mediated Delivery of Heterologous Proteins into Cells", PNAS, 91(2): 664-668,; Vives et al, (1997) "A truncated HIV-1 TAT Protein Basic Domain Rapidly Translocates through the Plasma Membrane and Accumulates in the Cell Nucleus", J. Biol.
- the references disclose heterologous protein production covalently attached to a segment of the TAT protein in E. coli, and subsequent delivery of this construct as a means of delivering TAT-conjugated proteins into eukaryotic cell cytoplasms or nucleii. Bacterial subcellular localization was not addressed, nor was there an attempt to address TAT-mediated effects on increased bacterial protein production. Finally, the ability of the TAT- containing constructs to undergo cleavage of the N-terminal TAT segment, resulting in properly folded, mature heterologously expressed protein is a unique application and novel development of the present invention alone. All the above references result in TAT-conjugated products being isolated from bacterial expression systems and used for delivery in eukaryotic systems.
- incorporation of a bacterial signal sequence in frame with the TAT-derived peptide and protein-of-interest provided for cleavage of the signal sequence and the TAT-derived sequence, and provided a mature, properly folded and functional protein, readily isolatable and purifiable.
- the signal sequence thus functioning as providing a bacterial protease cleavage recognition sequence for cleavage of the periplasmic targeting, or TAT- derived peptide, and the cleavage sequence itself. Once cleaved, the remaining protein-of-interest folds properly within the oxidizing environment provided by the bacterial periplasm.
- the present invention relates to novel prokaryotic expression constructs, methods of generating same and methods of using same for expression of recombinant proteins in prokaryotic expression systems.
- the prokaryotic expression constructs of the present invention encode for a TAT- derived polypeptide fused to a protein-of-interest, targeting the resulting recombinant fusion polypeptide to the periplasm. Incorporation of a bacterial signal sequence, or other bacterial protease cleavage recognition sequence, within the construct facilitates TAT-derived polypeptide cleavage, releasing the mature recombinant protein-of-interest.
- the mature recombinant protein-of-interest can undergo proper folding, and can be isolated therefrom to homogeneity with relative ease, and minimum expense.
- Non-bacterial protease cleavage recognition sequence can be used for post isolation processing of the fusion polypeptide into the mature recombinant protein-of-interest.
- the prokaryotic expression constructs of the invention increase recombinant protein expression, periplasmic translocation of the expressed proteins and also increases bacterial cell mass.
- the present invention provides processes and products for the efficient production of mature recombinant proteins-of-interest using prokaryotic expression systems.
- the method and products provided herein are novel and/or beneficial in that they provide for (i) high levels of expression of a protein-of-interest in prokaryotic cells; (ii) proper folding of a protein-of interest once expressed; and/or (iii) ease of isolation of the proteins-of-interest from a bacterial periplasm. It is one object of the present invention to provide methods, expression constructs and kits for producing a protein-of-interest in, and purifying the protein-of-interest substantially, exclusively from a bacterial periplasm.
- an assay of determining whether a TAT-derived peptide is an effective periplasmic targeting sequence comprises introducing into bacteria an expression construct encoding a fusion polypeptide comprising the TAT-derived peptide and a reporter protein, and determining to what extent the fusion polypeptide accumulates within the periplasm, thereby determining whether the TAT-derived peptide is an effective periplasmic targeting sequence.
- the expression construct further harbors a reporter sequence for ease of identification of expression within a bacterial periplasm.
- This assay can be used, by one ordinarily skilled in the art, to determine which of the homologous TAT-derived sequences from, for example, any of the viral species listed below, and/or modifications thereof is most efficient for the purpose of implementing the various methods, constructs and kits of the present invention which are further described hereinafter.

- the mature protein is then substantially exclusively purified from the bacterial periplasm.

- the present invention is of (i) novel prokaryotic expression constructs; (ii) methods of generating the expression constructs; and (iii) methods of using the expression constructs for the expression of recombinant proteins-of-interest in prokaryotic expression systems.
- the prokaryotic expression constructs encode for fusion polypeptides which comprise a TAT-derived peptide, and optionally a prokaryotic signal sequence, or a protease cleavage recognition sequence, fused to a molecule of interest, resulting in the targeting of the recombinant fusion polypeptide to the bacterial periplasm, wherein optionally the TAT-derived peptide is cleaved and the remaining protein-of- interest undergoes proper folding, resulting in the production of a mature recombinant protein-of-interest.
- the characterization of a novel periplasmic transport mechanism in prokaryotes for heterologously expressed, mature proteins-of-interest is described herein.
- the transport mechanism utilizes the incorporation of a genetic fusion of a TAT-derived peptide and a protein-of-interest, to target the translated fusion polypeptide to the bacterial periplasm.
- Incorporation of a bacterial signal sequence, functioning as a bacterial protease cleavage recognition sequence facilitates cleavage of the signal/cleavage sequence, as well as cleavage of the TAT-derived peptide.
- TAT-derived peptide utilized in these studies comprises amino acids 47 to 57 of the TAT protein of HIV-1 (YGRKKRRQRRR) (SEQ ID 18). It is to be understood, and as is further defined hereinunder, that other sequences of any TAT protein may be similarly utilized to target fusion polypeptides containing a protein-of-interest to a bacterial periplasm.
- modified sequences may include, for example, amino acids similar to those amino acids naturally present in the TAT protein (e.g., basic and hydrophylic amino acids), the absence of at least one amino acid and the addition of at least one amino acid.
- TAT proteins have been identified in several viral species including, but not limited to, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2), equine infectious anemia virus, simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV), feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), maedi-visna virus (MW) and caprine arthritis-encephalitis-virus.

- Amino acid substitutions are typically of single residues; insertions usually will be on the order of from about 1 to 5 amino acids, although considerably larger insertions may be tolerated. Deletions range from about 1 to about 2 residues, although in some cases deletions may be larger.
- substitutions may be used to arrive at a final derivative. Generally these changes are done on a few amino acids to minimize the alteration of the molecule. However, larger changes may be tolerated in certain circumstances. When small alterations in the characteristics of TAT derived peptide are desired, substitutions are generally made in accordance with the following chart:
- TAT-derived peptides may be evaluated for their potential as periplasmic targeting sequences, and will be further discussed hereinbelow.

- Western blots of human growth hormone (hGH) - TAT fusion polypeptides readily localized to bacterial periplasms.
- Incorporation of a signal peptide, in this case the heat-stable enterotoxin II signal peptide (STB) further resulted in processing of the fusion polypeptide to yield the mature, appropriately sized (22 kDa) hormone, as opposed to the fusion peptide isolated by the TAT-hGH construct alone (24 kDa). Both constructs provided greater amounts of hGH as compared to constructs harboring STB-hGH alone, without inclusion of the TAT-derived peptide.

- One ml of the above concentrate was acidified by the addition of 15 ⁇ l glacial acetic acid.
- the acidified concentrate was filtered through a 0.45 micron PVDF syringe driven filter unit (Millex-HV, Millipore, Cat. No.: SLHV R04 NL) and 250 - 900 ⁇ l were injected on a Waters Delta Prep HPLC system (Delta Prep 4000, Preparative Chromatography System) fitted with a Vydac C4, 300 A, reverse phase column (4.6 x 250 mm).
- the mobile phase was: A - 0.1 % trifluoroacetic acid in water, B - 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid in acetonitrile.
- the flow rate was 1 ml/minute.
- the gradient used was 20-80 % of B in 60 minutes. Detection was done at 280 nm.
- the standard (Genotropin, Pharmacia-Upjohn, Sweden) eluted under these conditions with a retention time of 24.5 minutes.
- the initial fermentation medium contained the following ingredients: 21.9 mM potassium dibasic phosphate, 13.9 mM sodium monobasic phosphate, 29.6 mM potassium chloride, 55.7 mM ammonium sulfate, 5 mM sodium citrate, 14.7 mM magnesium sulfate, 1.11 % tryptone, 1.11 % yeast extract, 0.11 % glucose, 0.002 % ferric sulfate, 0.4 ml/L of antifoam and 0.5 mg/L tetracycline.
- a trace element solution (3.7 ml/5 L) was added, containing 100 mM ferric sulfate and 30 mM of each of the following: zinc sulfate, cobalt chloride, sodium molybdate, copper sulfate, boric acid and manganese sulfate.
- a pH of 7.2 was maintained throughout the process by the addition of H 2 S0 solution and ammonium hydroxide.
- 50 % (w/v) of a glucose solution was fed to the fermenter from initiation of the process. Adjustment of glucose feeding was done during the process in order to maintain a glucose level of below 4 g/L.
- Dissolved oxygen was measured by an on-line oxygen electrode and was set to 30%. The dissolved oxygen setting was maintained by increasing the agitation, airflow and oxygen supplementation during the process.
- Cell growth was performed at 30 °C for 5.5 hours, followed by increasing the culture temperature to 42° C over a period of 30 minutes.
- Induction of hGH expression was performed at 42° C for 6 hours. Bacterial cells were harvested via centrifugation (6,200 g, 15 minutes at 4°C) and the cell pellet was stored at -20° C.
