Definitions
- Non-catalytic proteins were discovered to display nucleophilic reactivity upon specific binding to weakly electrophilic, active site-directed compounds. These activated nucleophiles function in register with conventional noncovalent binding sites in the protein. Until now, such activated nucleophiles were thought to exist only in the catalytic sites of enzymes, such as those found in serine proteases. In the present invention, nucleophilic sites have been identified in several non-enzymatic proteins, including albumin, calmodulin, gpl20 and antibodies directed to gpl20, EGFR and Factor VIE. The presence of activated nucleophiles in these proteins indicates the formation of specific non-covalent bonding interactions with the inventive compounds that arise from protein folding and protein interactions with other macromolecules and small molecules.
- Biotin-containing and fluorescent electrophilic esters are employed to identify the nucleophilic sites.
- Non-covalent binding to moieties in the spatial neighborhood of the electrophilic atom allowed targeting of the active-site nucleophiles in proteins with defined binding specificity.
- a ligand and receptor are defined as any pair of molecules that can become associated via noncovalent bondind forces, including molecules of the same protein.
- nucleophilic proteins are designated nucleophilic receptors (NuRs).
- Electrophilic analogs of ligands capable of covalent binding to NuRs guided by noncovalent interactions are designated CALs (Covalent Analogues of Ligands).
- CALs of NuRs are prepared (designated CALNuRs), allowing a given molecule of the CALNuR expressing to a nucleophile to bind covalently to a second CALNuR molecule at the covalently reactive electrophile incorporated within the CALNuR.
- the invention can be used for: • Irreversible inhibition of pathogenic NuR activities using CALs;
- An object of the invention is to provide a covalently reactive ligand analogue (CAL) of formula (1):

- Va contains biotin at the N terminus and the phosphonate diester at the C terminus.
- Fig 2 Schematic representation of the interaction between nucleophilic receptors (NuRs) and large covalent analogs of ligands (LaCALs).
- the unit structure of LaCALs can be represented by the general formula J -E, where L and E represent, respectively, the receptor binding determinant of the parent ligand molecule and a unit chemical modification that contains an electrophilic group capable of forming a full or partial covalent bond with nucleophilic group Nu of the receptor NuR.
- L is composed of a linear or discontinuous regions [Ll...Lx...Lm] that are recognized by the receptor (NuR). Dotted lines connecting [Ll...Lx...Lm] represent short or extended lengths of the ligand region that do not serve as receptor binding determinants.
- Lx corresponds to a functional group of the ligand to which E is coupled. Typical examples of Lx are the -NH2, -COOH, -SH and -OH groups.
- the LaCAL may contain one or more set of each reactive unit composed of [Ll...Lx...Lm] and E. The covalent bonding between Nu of the receptor and E of LaCAL occurs in conjunction with the classical receptor-ligand interactions mediated by L.
- Fig 3 Reaction mechanism for serine protease Abs.
- Nucleophilic group Nu of the receptor (NuR) stabilize the ligand ground state noncovalently ( ⁇ G i gand )- Nucleophiles such as an activated Ser residue attacks the peptide bond, forming an unstable resonant transition state (TS1).
- TS1 unstable resonant transition state
- a water molecule hydrolyzes the covalent intermediate via a second tetrahedral transition state (TS2).
- LaCALs These compounds are composed of one or more determinants that bind the receptor in conjuncation with the electrophilic group.

- Protein nucleophilic reactivities arise from activation of certain amino acid side chains.
- serine proteases precise spatial positioning of the Ser-His-Asp triad allows formation of a hydrogen bonded network that imparts nucleophilic reactivity to the Ser oxygen. Abs were predicted in 1973 to express enzyme-like active sites based on sequence homology between CDR1 of Bence Jones proteins and the peptide region surrounding the active site Ser residue of serine proteases (1).
- a serine protease-like catalytic triad composed of Ser27a-His93-Aspl has been identified in the light chain (L chain) of an antibody (Ab) to VIP by site-directed mutagenesis (2).
- the covalent reactivity is a necessary but not sufficient condition for serine protease catalysis. This is because completion of the catalytic cycle requires facilitation of events occurring after formation of the covalent acyl-enzyme intermediate, i.e., hydrolysis of the intermediate and release of product peptides (Fig 1). Thus proteins can express nucleophilic reactivity despite the absence of catalytic activity. Recent studies indicate that a large proportion if not all Abs express nucleophilic reactivity at levels greater than conventional enzymes (3). These Abs were identified using covalently activated ligands, designated CALs. These CALs contained an electrophilic phosphorus atom that forms a stable covalent bond with activated nucleophiles.
- nucleophilic activity is a heritable trait, encoded by germline V domains (2,4). [About 50 V H and 50 V genes along with a smaller number of diversity and joining genes constitute the inherited Ab repertoire.]. Because the nucleophilic reactivity is germline-encoded, in principle, the immune system should be capable of mounting nucleophilic Ab responses to any polypeptide antigen.
- IgG preparations can display stronger nucleophilic reactivity than trypsin, as determined from rates of formation of covalent adducts with hapten phosphonate diesters of the present invention.
- Studies of polyclonal IgG and individual single chain Fv (scFv) clones indicate that an evidently universal nucleophilic reactivity in Abs. Perturbations in the level of nucleophilic reactivity are evident when the Abs were subjected to heat treatments, consistent with the idea that activation of the nucleophile depends on the native conformation of the protein.
- LaCALs contain the phosphonate group within the peptide backbone or the side chain groups of proteins (Fig 2). Abs specific for the peptide epitopes incorporated in LaCALS displayed irreversible binding at levels exceeding irrelevant Abs (3). As described in Example I, this was true for every Ab examined, including several non-catalytic Abs.
- BCR B lymphocyte receptor
- IgG Abs do not express antigen-specific catalytic activity.
- Occupancy of the B lymphocyte receptor (BCR; surface Ab associated with Ig ⁇ /Ig ⁇ ) by the antigen drives B cell proliferation.
- BCR catalysis will abort clonal proliferation if the rate of product release is more rapid than BCR transmembrane signaling necessary to induce cell division.
- This feature of the immune system poses a physiological barrier limiting adaptive improvement of the catalytic function over the course of the immune response. In comparison, there is no bar to improved Ab nucleophilicity if this prolongs BCR occupancy. In the extreme case, increased nucleophilicity could result in formation of a full covalent bond with the antigen.
- a nucleophilic Ab may also form stable, dead-end covalent complexes with the antigen - two such examples are published (5,6), and in an unpublished study in our lab, we observed stable binding of albumin by certain Abs that were resistant to SDS treatment.
- nucleophilic reactivity is broadly distributed in diverse proteins, including HIV g ⁇ l20, albumin, the soluble extracellulat domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (sEGFR), casein and the soluble extracellular domain of CD4 (sCD4). None of these proteins possesses any known enzymatic activity. The level of the nucleophilic reactivity is variable in different proteins, suggesting that it is unique molecular property of each protein.
- Also disclosed in the present invention is the facilitatory influence of noncovalent binding interactions on covalent binding between CAL derivatives of two ligands, sCD4-CAL and VIP, by their receptors, gpl20 and calmodulin, respectively.
- High affinity sCD4-gpl20 and VIP-calmodulin binding due to noncovalent interactions have been described previously (7,8).
- SCD4-CAL and VIP-CAL displayed specific and irreversible binding to gpl20 and calmodulin, respectively at levels superior to control non-proteinic hapten CALs.
- the covalent bonding interactions are made possible by the occurrence of the natural nucleophiles expressed by gpl20 and calmodulin within their active sites responsible for noncovalent binding to sCD4 and VIP, respectively.
- nucleophilic receptors susceptible to covalent activation or inactivation by LaCALs.
- NuRs nucleophilic receptors
- the widespread interactions distribution of protein nucleophilic reactivity coordinated with conventional noncovalent binding foces may be understood as an intrinsic property of protein determinants responsible for intermolecular protein-protein binding.
- certain atoms in the complex are capable of sharing electrons in common orbitals, resulting in stabilization of the complexes.
- the bonding may involve interactions with partial covalent character (a hydrogen bond, for example, serves as an example of a bond with partial covalent character).
- nucleophile-electrophile bonding interactions is perceived in our model to occur as a mechanism stabilizing natural intermolecular binding between proteins in the ground state complexes, with no requirement that the reaction proceed to the further steps in chemical catalysis.
- nucleophilic reactivity observed using CALs and LaCALs in the present invention, thus, as a reflection of the intrinsic capability of protein active sites to engage in covalent bonding interactions of varying strengths with their natural ligands.
- Covalent macromolecular assemblies Intermolecular homoassociation reactions involving the individual molecules of the same protein involves forces similar to those employed in heterocomplexation reactions between different proteins.
- Disclosed in the present invention is the spontaneous formation of covalent homoassemblies of proteins, including but not limited to HIV gpl20-CAL preparations. As in the case of heterocomplexation between LaCALs and NuRS, the assembly is guided by noncovalent interactions involved in formation of natural assemblies of gpl20. This protein is well-known to be expressed on the surface of HIV as a noncovalent oligomer.
- covalent assemblies of gpl20-CAL simulating the native structure of noncovalent gpl20 oligomers occurs because the contact regions between of gpl20 oligomers contain natural nucleophile-electrophile pairs that are bonded in our model via partial covalent forces.
- the g ⁇ l20- CAL prepation disclosed in the present invention contains articial elecxrophiles that express stronger covalent reactivity than the natural elecxrophiles. Therefore, stable covalent bonds are formed with the natural nucleophiles, resulting in assembly of the gpl20-CAL oligomers with conformation similar to native gpl20 oligomers. 4. CAL structure.
- CAL design is driven by considerations that will allow the covalently reactive elecxrophile and the weak binding groups to come into register spatially to obtain specific covalent binding to NuR active sites. Examples of the design features are disclosed as follows.
- Hapten CALs are defined as small CALs, usually with mass 1000 Da or less.
- the reactivity of hapten CALs with NuRs is restricted to covalent reaction with an elecxrophile contained in the hapten CAL along with noncovalent recognition of adjacent groups.
- LaCALs can be represented by the general formula L-E, in which L provides weak bonding interactions and E provides the ability to bind covalently to NuRs.
- NuRs can be membrane bound receptors, soluble receptors, enzymes or antibodies.
- the natural nucleophiles within a NuR reacts with the artificially inserted electrophile in the LaCAL derivative of another NuR molecule.
- LaCAL structural design is based on the split site model of binding interactions, in which the weak binding ligand subsites in the L component and the electrophilically reactive subsite in the E component are treated as distinct but functionally coordinated regions of the molecule (Fig 2).
- the small molecular weight hapten CALs can be considered equivalent to the E units incorporated within the large L-E structure of LaCALs. Electrophile-nucleophile pairing resulting in covalent bonding takes place at the E unit.
- the term "large” includes any entity that can furnish sufficient weak binding forces with aggregate free energy of binding of 7.1 kcal/mole or more (corresponding to Kd 10 "5 M or less).
- the term "weak” includes traditional noncovalent binding forces, along with natural electrophile-nucleophile pairing reactions leading to bonding with partial covalent character.
- the specified energy minimum corresponds to the minimum binding energy of interactions typical of weak binding leading to specific receptor-ligand interactions, enzyme-substrate interactions, antigen-antibody interactions and macromolecular self-assembly reactions involved in natural biological reactions.
- the L unit of the LaCALs can be composed of a peptide composed of 4 or more amino acids.
- a linear or discontinuous epitope contained within a discrete L contained in a large protein can serve as the L component.
- Oligonucleotides, oligosaccharides and oligolipidic repeat structures also qualify for inclusion as the weak binding L moieties in LaCALs.
- [Ll...Lx...Lm] are the component amino acids of the ligand determinant recognized weakly by the LaCAL. These weak interactions occur in conjunction with covalent interaction between one or more LaCAL electrophile and one or more NuR nucleophile (Nu).
- [LI ...Lx...Lm] can be a linear or discontinuous set of amino acids that are spatially in proximity with electrophile. Dotted lines in Fig 2 connecting [Ll...Lx...Lm] represent short or extended lengths of the polypeptide backbone that do not provide binding interactions. As proteins can express one or more binding determinants, polypeptide LaCALs may contain one or more sets of each covalently reactive elecxrophiles, each in conjunction with its own [LI ...Lx...Lm] subsites.
- the general LaCAL structure is shown in Fig 4.
- the electrophile E is an essential component of all CALs.
- the covalent reaction with nucleophiles (Nu) found in the targeted protein (the NuR) occurs at an electrophilic atom within E.
- E is minimally composed of the general formula Y"-Y'-Y, in which: (a) Y contains an electrophilic group; (b) Y' contains a positively charged group, a negatively charged group, a bulky aromatic group or a neutral group that fulfils the noncovalent recognition of the PI site; (c) Y" is an adaptor group designed to allow linkage to L.
- LaCAL backbone or at one of the sidechain groups.
- US Patent 6,235,714 discloses a variant of LaCALs useful for catalytic antibody applications, that is, an electrophile located in the backbone of peptides with an adjacent PI positively charged group.
- additional LaCALs with general utility i.e., LaCALs with E in the backbone with diverse adjacent PI and PI' groups, including negatively charged groups, bulky aromatic groups and small and large neutral groups.
- Additional LaCALs with E located in the side chain groups of L are disclosed in the present invention.
- the electrophilic atom (Z) in Y can be any electrophilic atom that can form a stable covalent bond with NuRs, for example, a phosphorus atom, a carbon atom, a boron atom or a vanadium atom (Fig 5 A).
- Y contains an additional partial or fully charged atom adjacent to the electrophilic atom, for example, the negatively charged oxygen atom of LaCALs containing phosphonate monoesters (Fig 4, Example 1).
- US Patent application 10/114,716 discloses a variant of LaCALs useful for catalytic antibody applications, that is, a phosphonate monoester LaCAL containing an electrophilic phosphorus atom with an adjacent negatively charged oxygen located within the backbone of peptides. Additional LaCALs are disclosed in the present invention in which Y groups containing an electrophilic atom with an adjacent negatively charged group located in the LaCAL side chains.
- Y can contain substituents with defined electron withdrawing and electron donating capability. Examples of such substituents are shown in Fig 5B and 5C.
- the electron withdrawing and donating groups are linked directly to the electrophilic atom or via spacer groups to enhance and decrease the covalent reactivity of the electrophile with nucleophiles, owing to inductive effects.
- Substituents 1-18 in Fig 5B represent groups with varying electron withdrawing capacity.
- the ideal substituent is one that permits selective binding to the active site of the desired NuR without binding other NuRs.
- the PI and PI' noncovalent recognition requirements of NuRs are fulfilled by incorporating groups with the appropriate charge and bulk within Y' and Y, respectively. Different NuRs have different PI and PI ' recognition requirements. Thus, a positive charge group, a negative charged group, a bulky group or a neutral group are incorporated in these positions to optimize the interaction of LaCALs with the targeted NuR.
- Y represents the adaptor functionality to which the Y'-Y unit can be attached.
- linkage of Y'-Y to the amino acid side chains of polypeptide ligands can be accomplished directly or through the use of an adaptor group, which is then considered to be a component of E in the general LaCAL structure.
- the adaptor functionality is also useful for the purpose of varying the flexibility of the construct, as well as features such as the solubility of the overall LaCAL.
- adaptors can be used that contain only single bonds around which unhindered rotation is possible. This allows the electrophile and other accessory groups included in the constructs to sample a greater extent of conformational space, increasing the opportunity of contact with the nucleophile of the targeted NuR.
- the solubility features of the LaCALs can be modified by including within Y" groups that tend to solvate water, e.g., amines and :arboxyl groups.
- Lx in the general structure corresponds to the functional group of a ligand to which E is attached.
- typical examples of Lx are the side chains of Lys, Asp, Glu, Cys, Ser, Thr and Tyr.
- Examples of the site of linkage of Y"-Y'-Y to these amino acids include the -NH2, -COOH, -SH and - DH groups.
- Lx can also correspond to the amine or carboxyl terminus.
- LaCAL will contain the electrophilic group with peptide flanks on either side.
- DALs that bind covalently to the targeted NuRs can be used for the following purposes: Permanent inactivation of soluble NuRs;
- soluble NuRs Permanent inactivation of soluble NuRs.
- One class of soluble NuRs is secreted antibodies with pathogenic effects, e.g., antibodies to transplantation antigens involved in transplant rejection and autoantibodies to self-antigens involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease.
- pathogenic effects e.g., antibodies to transplantation antigens involved in transplant rejection and autoantibodies to self-antigens involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease.
- Examples of covalent LaCAL engagement of antibodies to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), gpl20, DNA and Factor VEI are described in Examples I, Eland IV.
- Antibodies to Factor VEI are responsible for bleeding disorders in certain hemophilia patients.
- Antibodies to EGFR are associated with the autoimmune disease systemic sclerosis.
- Antibodies to DNA are believed to play a pathogenic role in the autoimmune disease systemic lupus erythematosus. Treatment of antibody mediated diseases is limited at present to drugs that produce nonspecific immunosuppression, with the result that useful immune responses are also suppressed as a side effect.
- the development of LaCALs allows, for the first time, the targeting of individual antibody populations for inactivation based on their antigenic specificity. LaCALs bind the individual antibody populations specifically and irreversibly. Therefore, they offer an advantage over conventional antigens, in that the latter molecules dissociate from antigen-antibody complexes, regenerating the pathogenic antibodies.
- Calmodulin is an important regulator of cellular metabolic functions, as it controls the activity of many signal transducing enzymes, e.g., mysosin light chain kinase and phosphodiesterase.
- VIP binds calmodulin with high affinity and inhibits calmodulin activation of enzymes.
- the VIP-CAL described in Example II, Fig 13 and El, Fig 18, therefore, can be applied as an irreversible calmodulin antagonist in situations where such an effect will be beneficial, e.g., muscle cell hyperactivity.
- Additional soluble NuR targets of LaCALs are shown in Table 1.
- Exemplary molecules in this group include TNF, IL-1 beta, EGF, TGF ⁇ , p53 products, prostate specific antigen, carcinoembryonic antigen, prolactin, human chorionic gonadofropin, c-myc, c-fos, c-jun, p-glycoproteins, multidrug resistance associated proteins, metalloproteinases, steroid receptors and angiogenesis factors.
- CALs using as starting materials reagents known to bind these NuRs with high affinity, e.g., a LaCAL derivative of the soluble receptors for EGF for targeting of EGF and a CAL derivative of the steroid for targeting of the steroid receptor.
- Such CALs can be used for treatment of various diseases, including but not limiteds to cancer, inflammatory diseases and cardiovascular diseases.
- Microbial proteins can also be targeted for inactivation by the LaCALs of the present invention. These include but are not limited to gpl20, gpl60, Lexl repressor, gag, pol, hepatitis B surface antigen, bacterial exotoxins (diptheria toxin, C. tetani toxin, C. botulinum toxin, pertussis toxin). Irreversible binding of HIV gpl20 by sCD4-CAL is described in Example VI.
- sCD4 Due to the permanent occupancy of the CD4 binding site of gpl20 by the sCD4-CAL, the gpl20 is no longer capable of binding host cell CD4 receptors, with the result that HIV-1 can not gain entry into the host cells.
- sCD4 has been proposed as a candidate for HIV therapy, but the potency of sCD4 is too low for it to be useful for therapeutic purposes.
- the ability of sCD4-CAL to bind gpl20 covalently may be anticipated to enhance the therapeutic potency of sCD4 preparations.
- EGF rinding to the EGF receptor activates the intracellular tyrosine kinase domain of the receptor and allows ncreased phosphorylation of various cellular proteins. If the covalent binding of VIP-CAL to the VIP eceptor mimics exactly the weak binding of VIP to the receptor, persistent activation of the receptor will occur, which will be terminated when the receptor becomes uncoupled from its signal tranducing system, for example, by internalization of the receptor. Binding of antagonists to receptors, on the other hand, does not activate the signal tranducing systems underlying the biological effects of the ligands, presumably because the conformational changes induced in the receptor do not mimic sufficiently those required for successful signal tranduction.
- CALs represent a new class of potential therapeutic reagents.
- overproduction of VIP is associated with certain pancreatic cancers, resulting in life-threatening watery diarrhea (9).
- the development of potent and specific VIP-CAL as an antagonist for V P receptors can be applied to control the watery diarrhea.
- the VIP receptor is overexpressed on many cancers and VIP stimulates the growth of certain tumors (10).
- An anatagonistic VIP-CAL can be employed to control tumor growth.
- an antagonistic EGF-CAL can be employed to control the growth of EGFR overexpressing tumors.
- Anatgonists of the tyrosine kinase activity of the EGFR and antibodies to EGFR are currently in clinical use as anti-cancer agents (Iressa). Agonistic effects of CALs can also be perceived to be advantageous, in that the permanent binding to the receptor can activate signal transduction more persistently than reversible ligand binding.
- a beneficial example is the use of an insulin-CAL to achieve persisten activation of the insulin receptor in diabetes.
- Table 1 contains a list of receptors that can be targeted by CALs in this approach.
- the targets include but are not limited to cytokine receptors, growth factor receptors, hormone receptors, neurotramitter receptors and angiogenesis factor receptors.
- lymphocytes expressing NuRs are responsible for mounting harmful immune responses in various autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection. No effective means are available at present to induce immunce tolerance against predetermined antigenic targets. Consequently, generalized immunosuppressive therapies such as treatment with cyclophosphamide and c ⁇ rticosteroids are the mainstay of treatment of these immunological disorders.
- the CALs of the present invention are suitable to achieve permanent occupancy of B cell receptors (BCRs) and T cell receptors (TCRs). Selective covalent binding of hapten CALs by BCRs expressed on the cellular surface is described in Example El Fig 20.
- BCRs B cell receptors
- TCRs T cell receptors
- Persistent receptor occupancy is well known to induce immunological tolerance. For example, immunization with large doses of antigens results in induction of tolerance due to this effect. Essentially, the persistent receptor occupancy leads to apoptosis, as opposed to clonal selection of the cells. Treatment with large doses of purified Factor VIE, for example, is successful in inducing tolerance in a subpopulation of hemophila patients expressing antibodies to Factor VIE. Irreversible binding of Factor- VEI-CAL to Factor VEI-specific BCRs on the cell surface offers a more potent and cost-effective way to induce immunological tolerance as a therapy for hemophilia in these patients.
- T cells are susceptible to tolerance induction by the LaCALs due to persistent TCR occupancy by these compounds.
- cytotoxic agents can be attached to LaCALs if needed to induce the death of B and T cells aased on their antigenic specificity, thus supplementing tolerance induction due to persistent receptor Dccupancy.
- This is feasible because covalent LaCAL binding to antigen-specific B and T cells can selectively induce the death of these cells, while sparing the organism from generalized negative effects ⁇ ue to the cytotoxic agent.
- An example of LaCAL-toxin conjugates useful for this purpose is shown in 7 ig 17. (e) Generation of covalent mimetics of natural, self-assembled arrays of biomolecules; covalent gpl20 oligomer mimetics as a vaccine candidate.
- Example VE Fig 31_describes the ipontaneous assembly of an HIV gpl20-CAL into dimers and trimers.
- the control EGFR-CAL did not lisplay this behavior, and the rate of covalent binding of a hapten CAL with gpl20 was considerably mailer than the rate of gpl20-CAL self-assembly.
- gpl20 oliogmers that mimic the native structure of oligomeric gpl20 on the surface of HIV has been an intense area of research in the last decade, because the conformation of the monomeric protein deviates significantly from that of the native oligomeric structure, and the monomeric protein induces mainly antibodies to the most mutable region of gpl20, the V3 domain. This is a likely contributory reason for the failure of purified monomeric gpl20 prepation as a vaccine for HIV-1 infection, as reported by Vaxgen Inc recently (11). Yet, gpl20 preparations remains the best hope for vaccination against HIV-1, because this protein is responsible for viral entry into host cells by virtue of its role in host cell CD4 binding and chemokine receptor binding.
- gpl20-CAL preparation containing the covalently assembled dimers and trimers induces the formation of nucleophilic Abs that can neutralize the infectivity of primary HIV-1 isolates in culture.
- Gp41 an integral membrane protein to which the gpl20 oligomers are bound noncovalently, is added to gpl20-CAL preprations to promote correctly assembled covalent gpl20-CAL oligomers.
- the gpl20-CAL oligomer preparations are potentially useful in two ways: (a) Development of monoclonal antibodies to gpl20 for passive irnmnotherapy of HIV infection; and (b) As a vaccine capable of inducing prophylactic antibodies against HIV- 1.
- ⁇ Sensitive imaging of tumor cells expressing NuRs on their surface Binding of macromolecules to receptors on tumor cells is useful to image primary tumors and the locations of their metastases.
- radiolabeled somatostatin analogs are useful structuriging of tumors expressing somatostatin receptors (12).
- Radiolabeled VIP has been employed to image VLP receptor-expressing tumors (13). Irreversible binding of the appropriate LaCALs to tumor cell receptors represents an improved and more sensitive method for such imaging applications.
- the VIP-CAL described in Example E Figl3, and Example El, Fig 18 can be radiolabeled and administered to patients intravenously for imaging of tumor locations.
- the method is particularly suitable for probes with short half-lives in vivo, as the irreversibly bound LaCAL does not dissociate from the tumor cells, with the result that a smaller concentration of the LaCAL is required to achieve tumor labeling compared to a conventional, reversibly-binding ligand.
- Radioactive probes are used frequently in these applications.
- Other probes amenable for modern imaging applications are also available, e.g, near infrared fluorescent probes and positron emission tomography radiotracers (14,15).
- gpl20-CAL described in Example VE, Fig 31_can be coated on ELISA plates, the :est human serum in which the antibodies are to be detected can be incubated with the immobilized pl20-CAL for a suitable length of time, unbound material washed away and the bound antibodies can be ietected using anti-human antibodies linked to a fluorescent probe.
- Detailed ELISA methods are lescribed in refs 3,16. ⁇ mpirical experimental criteria considered significant in designing the structure of the hapten CALs and _aCALs include:
- the best hapten CALs and pCALs are identified by screening panels of these compounds for rate of binding to NuRs. This includes measurement of the magnitude of the Kd for the reversibly binding step and the first order rate constant k3 for the covalent bindng step.
- hapten CALs and LaCALs are determined by screening for binding to a a panel of NuRs, including NuRs unrelated in structure to the targeted NuR. Screening for binding of conventional serine protease and serine esterase enzymes is conducted to ensure that the CALs and LaCALs do not display unacceptable nonspecific to these proteins.
- ALs as described herein are intended to be administered to a patient as a pharmaceutical preparation.
- patient as used herein refers to human or animal subjects.
- the pharmaceutical preparation
- hapten CALs and LaCALs of the invention are conveniently formulated for administration with a acceptable medium such as water, buffered saline, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol and the like), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), oils, detergents, suspending agents or suitable mixtures thereof.
- a acceptable medium such as water, buffered saline, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol and the like), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), oils, detergents, suspending agents or suitable mixtures thereof.
- DMSO dimethyl sulfoxide
- the concenfration of hapten CALs and LaCALs in the chosen medium will depend on the hydrophobic or hydrophilic nature of the medium. Solubility limits may be easily determined by one skilled in the art.
- biologically acceptable medium includes any and all solvents, dispersion media and the like which may be appropriate for the desired route of administration of the pharmaceutical preparation, as exemplified in the preceding paragraph.
- the use of such media for pharmaceutically active substances is known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the CALs to be administered, its use in the pharmaceutical preparation is contemplated.
- RIBI immunogen-binding protein
- the immunogens may be administered parenterally by intravenous injection into the blood stream, or by subcutaneous, intramuscular or intraperitoneal injection. Pharmaceutical preparations for parenteral injection are commonly known in the art.
- Dosage unit form refers to a physically discrete unit of the pharmaceutical preparation appropriate for the patient undergoing treatment. Each dosage should contain a quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired effect in association with the selected pharmaceutical carrier. Procedures for determining the appropriate dosage unit are well known to those skilled in the art.
- the pharmaceutical preparation intended to inhibit NuRs may be administered at appropriate intervals, for example, once a day until the pathological symptoms are reduced or alleviated, after which the dosage may be reduced to a maintenance level.
- the appropriate interval in a particular case would normally depend on the condition and the pathogenic state sought to be treated in the patient.
- CALs are infused intravenously into the patient.
- steps must be taken to ensure that sufficient amounts of the molecules reach their target cells to exert a biological effect.
- the lipophilicity of the molecules, or the pharmaceutical preparation in which they are delivered may have to be increased so that the molecules can arrive at their target locations.
- the Abs of the invention may have to be delivered in a cell-targeted carrier so that sufficient numbers of molecules will reach the target cells.
- Methods for increasing the lipophilicity and targeting of therapeutic molecules which include capsulation of the Abs of the invention into antibody studded liposomes, are known in the art.
- the CALs that are the subject of the present invention can be conjugated to a carrier such as polyethylene glycol.
- the CALs can be bound to carriers capable of causing the transfer of said CALs across cell membranes or various blood-tissue barriers, including the blood-brain barrier.
- CALs will be selected that will that will fulfill the standard criteria for acceptable prophylatic or therapeutic agents: (1) Covalent binding of the NuRs will lead to a beneficial change in a pathological process by either functionally activating or functionally inactivating the target peptide antigen; and (2) Administation of said CALs will result in a favorable therapeutic index such that the clinical benefit gained outweighs the morbidity associated with any side-effects.
- the CALs -ontemplated in the present invention will constitute a major inprovement over such conventional monoclonals because of their superior potency, resulting in decrease in the cost of treatment.
- Table 1 A listing of some of the NuRs suitable for CAL therapy and the corresponding medical indications are shown in Table 1.
- Suitable categories of prophylatic or therapeutic target NuRs for the practice of the present invention include but are not limited to cytokines, growth factors, cytokine and growth factor receptors, proteins involved in the xransduction of stimuli intiated by growth factor receptors, clotting factors, integrins, mtigen receptors, enzymes, transcriptional regulators particularly those involved in cellular program (differentiation, proliferation and programmed cell death) control, other inducers of these cellular programs, cellular pumps capable of expelling anticancer agents, microbial and viral peptide antigens.
- the gpl20-CAL mixed with a suitable adjuvant formulation such as alum can be administered intramuscularly at a dose optimized for maximum antibody synthesis, and two or three booster injectijns can be administed at 4 week intervals, until the catalytic antibody concentration in the serum reaches plateau levels.
- the protective immunity so generated is anticipated to last for several years, because vaccination will result in formation of specific, long lived memory cells that can be stimulated to produce Abs upon exposure to the offending organism or cancer cell. Because Ab synthetic response to most antigens are T cell dependent, an appropriate T cell epitope can be incorporated into the immunogen by peptide synthesis.
- a carrier such as keyhole limpet hemocyanin can be conjugated to the CALs via coupling through lys side chain amino groups or Cys side chain sulfahydryl groups to maximize the antibody response if necessary.
- Antigen-specific Abs develop over the course of the immune response by sequence diversification of germline genes encoding the V domains, followed by selective antigen binding by B cell receptors with the greatest affinity, which stimulates clonal proliferation Abs.
- Catalysis sntails chemical transformation of the antigen and release of products (surface immunoglobulins issociated with Ig ⁇ and Ig ⁇ subunits), which is predicted to result in cessation of B cell selection, adaptive selection of Ab catalytic activity, therefore, may be a disfavored event. For this reason, catalysis by naturally occurring Abs is often assumed to be a molecular accident arising from sequence ariability of the V domains, as opposed to a general phenomenon with functional implications.
- hapten phosphonate esters have been developed as probes for covalent binding to the active site nucleophiles in Abs displaying serine protease and serine esterase activity (11,12) (designated CALs, covalently reactive antigen analogs). These compounds can be applied for direct study of Ab chemical activity independent of additional activities needed for accomplishment of catalysis.
- the phosphonates can be placed within peptides and proteins (Fig IB and IC) for studying the inte ⁇ lay between Ab nucleophilic reactivity and noncovalent forces permitting specific recognition of individual polypeptides.
- Polyclonal Abs to exEGFR were raised by immunizing female BALB/c mice (5-6 wk) intraperitoneally with exEGFR (10 ⁇ g/injection) on days 0, 27 and 41 in RIBI adjuvant and with A431 tumor cells (10 7 cells in saline) on day 14.
- Monoclonal Abs to exEGFR (clones C225, Hll, and C111.6) were purchased from Labvision (Fremont, CA).
- a control monoclonal anti-BSA IgG (clone BGN/H8) was from Biogenesis (Kingston, NH).
- the scFv proteins were purified to electrophoretic homogeneity (27 kDa band) by metal affinity chromatography on Ni-NTA columns (11). Expression levels were 0.3-5.7 mg/liter bacterial culture.
- the library contains diverse scFv clones determined by nucleotide sequencing (11), assuring a broad sampling of Ab V domains.
- JV0VI-F4 One of the scFv clones examined in the present study, JV0VI-F4, was sequenced (GenBank #AF522073) and its VL and VH domains were determined to belong to families X and I, respectively, and the germline gene counte ⁇ arts were Vl-13 and VH1-2, respectively. Confirmation of scFv band identities in SDS-electophoresis gels was by immunoblotting using a monoclonal Ab to c-myc (10).
- Probes for nucleophiles Synthesis of hapten CAL I (Fig 8) and its covalent reactivity with naturally occurring proteolytic Abs has been described previously (11,14).
- the electrophilic phosphonate diester mimics the peptide bond
- the positively charged amidino group mimics the Lys/Arg PI preference of naturally occurring proteolytic Abs (11)
- the biotin group permits sensitive detection of Ab- phosphonate adducts.
- II was prepared by condensation of diphenyl amino(phenyl)methanephosphonate (compound a) and 6-biotinamidohexanoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (Sigma) as described for I.
- diphenyl N-[0-(3- sulfosuccinimidyl)suberoyl]amino(4amidinophenyl)methanephosphonate (compound b) was first synthesized by mixing diphenyl ammo(4-amidinophenyl)methanephosphonate (0.13 mmol) in DMF (2 ml) containing ⁇ , ⁇ -diisopropylethylamine (0.11 ml, 0.63 mmol) and bis(sulfosuccinimidyl)suberate disodium salt (150 mg, 0.26 mmol; Pierce) for 2 h.
- Electrophoretically pure exEGFR (0.5 mg; from Dr. O'Connor-McCourt, ref 15) was reacted with 6-biotinamidohexanoic acid N- hydroxysuccinimide ester (59 nmol; Sigma) in 0.53 ml 10 mM HEPES, 150 mM ⁇ aCl, 0.1 mM CHAPS, pH 7.5 buffer (50 min, 25°C). Unreacted biotinylation reagent was removed by gel filtration (Micro Bio- Spin 6 column, BioRad).
- Biotinylated exEGFR (0.33 mg) was then reacted with compound b (136 nmol) in 3.3 ml buffer for 2h. Following removal of excess b by gel filtration in 50 mM Tris-HCl, 100 mM glycine, 0.1 mM CHAPS, pH 7.8, the concentration of free amines in the initial and CAL-derivitized proteins was measured using fluorescamine (16). Biotin content determined using 2-(4'- hydroxyazobenzene)benzoic acid (17) was 1.1 mol/mol exEGFR. The density of phosphonate diester labeling was 19 mol/mol exEGFR. Total protein was measured using BCA (Pierce). Some experiments were done using exEGFR CAL IVa.
- BSA was pretreated with diphenyl N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino(4- amidinophenyl)methanephosphonate (BSA, 21.3 ⁇ M; phosphonate, 0.5 mM; solvent, 10 mM PBS containing 5% DMSO; 15.5 h) to block potential V binding sites.
- V/BSA molar ratio was 3.9 determined from consumption of -SH groups using Ellman's reagent.
- Storage of I-J_H was at -70°C as 10 mM solutions in N,N-dimethylformamide.
- IV and IVa were stored at -70°C in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 0. IM glycine, O.lmM CHAPS.
- V and Va were stored at -70°C as 10 mM solutions in NN-dimethylformamide.
- Imaging and quantification was MI X ray film (Kodak) using Unscan-it software (Silk scientific, Orem, Utah) or Fluoro-STM Vlultilmager (Biorad). Band intensities are expressed in arbitrary area units (AAU). Valid comparisons of c-and intensities from different experiments is not possible as exposure and development times were not leld constant. Diisopropyl fluorophosphate (Sigma) was kept at 4°C until used. In some experiments, biotinylated BSA (Pierce, 8 mol biotin/mol protein) was elecfrophoresed at several concentrations in parallel with the samples and the biotin content of the CAL adducts was determined.
- Proteolysis assay Catalytic activity was measured by fluorimetric determination ( ⁇ ex 360 nm, ⁇ em 470 nm; Varian Cary Eclipse) of the cleavage of amide bond linking ammomethylcoumrain to the C terminal amino acid in short peptide-MCA substrates (10). Catalysts were incubated with peptide-MCA substrates (Pro-Phe-Arg-MCA, Boc- Glu-Ala-Arg-MCA, Boc-He-Glu-Ala-Arg-MCA; 200 ⁇ M; Peptide International) in 50mM Tris HCI, 0.1M glycine, 0.025% Tween-20, pH 8.0 at 37°C in 96-well plates.
- hapten CALs nucleophilicity identified with hapten CALs.
- Phosphonate hapten CALs I-DI (Fig 8) are analogs of mown active site-directed inhibitors of serine proteases (19). Like the serine protease trypsin, IgG from a lealthy human subject formed adducts with CAL I that were resistant to boiling and the denaturant SDS Fig 9; IgG, 150 kD adducts; trypsin, 21 kD adducts). Pooled IgG from immunologically unmanipulated 3ALB/c mice formed similar I adducts.
- CAL I The positively charged amidino group in CAL I was originally nco ⁇ orated in this compound to allow selective recognition of trypsin, which displays preference for lasic residues at the PI site (the residue immediately adjacent to the cleavage site in peptide substrates; ef 20).
- CAL H lacks the positively charged amidino group adjacent to the covalently reactive phosphorus torn. IgG was 240-fold less reactive with H than I, suggesting the trypsin-like PI specificity of Abs.
- IgG preparations from healthy humans and immunologically unmanipulated mice have been documented to cleave small model peptide substrates on the C terminal side of basic residues; the cleavage activity was observed in each of several IgG preparations examined; the activity comigrated with intact 150 kD IgG in denaturing gel filtration studies, and it was expressed by Fab preparations prepared by papain digestion (22).
- Fab preparations prepared by papain digestion 212.
- Glu-Ala-Arg-MCA and Pro-Phe-Arg-MCA substrates initial rates of proteolysis by IgG were, respectively, 1.8 x 10 5 -fold and 6.8 x 10 5 -fold smaller than by trypsin (Fig 8A and 8B, determined from the slopes of the progress curves).
- Glu-Ala-Arg-MCA is the preferred substrate for trypsin.
- Glu-Ala-Arg-MCA and Pro-Phe-Arg- MCA are the preferred substrates for human IgG determined from previous screening of a panel of peptide-MCA substrates (22). The magnitude of proteolysis by this IgG preparation falls within the range reported previously for other human IgG preparations. Despite its superior nucleophilic reactivity, the IgG is evidently a poor catalyst compared to trypsin.
- CAL I and DFP inhibited the catalytic activity of IgG catalyzed peptide-MCA cleavage (Fig 8 C), and DFP inhibited the irreversible binding of CAL I by the IgG (by 95%). These results provide assurance that CAL I binds the catalytic sites of IgG. As DFP binds the active site of serine proteases, its inhibitory effect confirms the serine protease character of the I Dinding sites of IgG.
- Electrophoresis of I-IgG adducts under reducing conditions revealed labeling of Doth subunits by the hapten CAL, evident as biotin-containing bands at 50 kD heavy chain bands and 25 ⁇ D light chain bands (Fig. 8 D).
- Irreversible I binding activity of IgG was lost by preheating the protein it 60°C for 10 min, indicating the dependence of the nucleophilic reactivity on the native protein conformation.
- cFv reaction mixtures contained CAL I adducts at 55-90 kD in addition to the monomer scFv adducts at 27 kDa. All of the CAL-adduct bands were also stainable with Ab to c-myc, confirming the presence of scFv in the adducts (the recombinant proteins contain a 10 residue c-myc peptide, ref 10). The tendency of scFv to form aggregates has been reported previously (23). Diminished levels of I-adducts were detected when an scFv clone was treated with DFP prior to I-treatment (by 72%).
- the rate of covalent adduct formation by different Fv clones was variable over a 34-fold range (Table 3), indicating distinct levels of nucleophilic reactivity of different Abs.
- CAL IV is the extracellular domain of a tumor-associated protein, exEGFR, presenting diverse antigenic epitopes derivitized at Lys side chains with the phosphonate diester (19 mol/mol) along with a small amount of biotin to allow detection of adducts.
- SDS-electrophoresis of CAL IV revealed a major silver-stained and biotin-containing band with nominal mass 90 kDa (mass of exEGFR 85 kDa; mass of hapten phosphonate group, 714 Da).
- CAL V corresponds to residues 421-431 of the HIV coat protein gpl20, along with the amidino surrogate of Lys432 and the covalently reactive phosphonate diester group located at the C terminus.
- the purity and chemical characterization of this peptidyl CAL has been reported previously (18). Abs raised by routine immunization with exEGFR and the synthetic peptide corresponding to residues 421-436 of gpl20 were initially employed to assure the antigenic integrity of these CALs.
- IV adducts of nonimmune IgG were not detectable (Fig 11). As IV concentration is small (0.2 ⁇ M in Fig 11) formation of adducts similar to those observed using hapten CAL I is not predicted. Little or no adducts were formed in the presence of exEGFR (1 ⁇ M) but adduct formation was not impeded by an equivalent concentration of calmodulin, indicating that the covalent binding reaction is at or near the antigen binding site of the Abs. The 250 kD IV adducts were stainable with anti-IgG (data not shown).
- the pseudo-first order rate constant o s for accumulation of IV adducts of polyclonal IgG to exEGFR was 1.0 ⁇ 0.1 h "1 .
- a precise estimate of k obs is not possible.
- the upper limit for k obs is 7.2xl0 "3 h "1 .
- k obs for accumulation of anti-peptide IgG adducts of Va was 496-fold greater than of nonimmune IgG adducts (17.8 ⁇ 3.3 h "1 and 0.4xl0 _1 ⁇ O.lxlO "1 if 1 , respectively; Fig 12 data).
- nucleophilic residues in conventional serine proteases react covalently with phosphonate diester probes, e.g., the Ser residue activated by hydrogen bonding in the catalytic Ser-His-Asp triad of serine Droteases.
- the presence of such nucleophiles in proteolytic and esterolytic Abs has been deduced from nutagenesis and covalent phosphonate binding studies (10-12).
- Nucleophilic attack on the substrate is the • ate limiting step in catalysis by certain enzymes (24).
- the reported catalytic rate constants (kcat) of bs are generally orders of magnitude lower than of enzymes, it has generally been assumed that the ieficiency resides in the nucleophilic reactivity of Abs.
- IgG preparations displayed stronger nucleophilic reactivity than trypsin determined from rates of formation of covalent adducts with hapten phosphonate diesters.
- Covalent Ab binding to the phosphonate diester was inhibited by the established serine protease-reactive reagent DFP.
- Nucleophilic attack on the natural counte ⁇ arts of the phosphonate groups in IV and Va e.g., the electrophilic carbonyl groups in the peptide backbone and side chain amides, is predicted to result in formation of covalent acyl-Ab complexes (Fig 1), allowing prolonged occupancy of the BCR and favoring emergence of Abs with improved reactivity.
- the phosphonate diester group in CALs is more electrophilic than the carbonyl group in proteins antigens, but Ab nucleophilicity is comparable or superior to that of trypsin, suggesting the feasibility of nucleophilic Ab attack on protein antigens.
- Abs with the ability to form irreversible covalent complexes with hapten antigens have been reported (39,40) and certain Abs display SDS-resistant binding to albumin (Paul and coworkers, to be published elsewhere).
- Ab nucleophilic reactivity could conceivably contribute to Ab-antigen binding without formation of stable covalent bonds.
- the nucleophilic reaction may lead to a structure with partial covalent character that does not progress to the acyl-Ab complex because no mechanism is available to donate a proton to the nitrogen atom of the leaving group (C terminal peptide fragment in Fig 1; ammonia if attack occurs on side chain amide groups).
- CAL inhibition may be generally useful means to inhibit Ab biological effects ⁇ egardless of catalytic activity.
- CALs IV and Va may be used to study the functional roles )f Abs from patients with systemic sclerosis and lupus, which are reported to bind EGFR (44) and synthetic gp 120(421-436) (45), respectively.

- variable domains underlies the pathogenic effects of certain Abs 1 produced as a result of autoimmune, allergic and anti-transplant reactions.
- Abs found in myasthenia gravis (reviewed in ref. 1) and hemophilia (reviewed in ref. 2) bind important epitopes of the acetylcholine receptor and Factor VIE, respectively, which interfere with the biological activity of these proteins by a steric hindrance mechanism.
- Other Abs utilize their Fc region to mediate pathogenic effects but antigen recognition by Ab variable domains is the stimulus initiating these effects, e.g., Ab recognition of erythrocyte antigens stimulates complement activation by the Fc region in autoimmune hemolytic anemia and incompatible blood transfusions.
- Hydrolytic catalysts such as Abs to polypeptides (5- S) and nucleic acids (9) hold the potential of permanent antigen inactivation. Moreover, catalysts are sndowed with turnover capability, i.e., a single Ab molecule can hydrolyze multiple antigen molecules, suggesting that such Abs may exert functional effects that are more potent than Abs dependant on stoichiometric antigen recognition.
- VIP is a 28 amino acid peptide with important biological actions, including immunoregulation via actions on T lymphocytes (reviewed in ref. 11) and control of blood and air flow via actions on the smooth muscle (reviewed in ref. 12).
- a model proteolytic Ab interferes with cytokine synthesis by cultured T cells accompanied by depletion of cellular VIP (13) and administration of the Ab to mice interferes with relaxation of airway smooth muscle (14).
- Proteolytic Abs to VIP appear to utilize a covalent catalytic mechanism reminiscent of serine proteases.
- HPLC-purified naterial [retension time 20.76 min, purity 95% (220 nm); YMC ODS-AM column (4.6 x 250 mm), ).05% TFA in water (A):0.05% TFA in acetonitrile (B) 90:10 to 20:80 in 45 min (1.0 ml/min)] was ;haracterized by ESI-MS [Observed m/z 721.3 (MH 1" ; calculated MlT " for C 36 H 45 N 6 0 6 PS, 721.3)] and tored as 10 rnM solution in DMF at -70°C.
- the active ester 2 was prepared by acylating the same irecursor amine with disuccinimidyl suberate (Pierce; Rockford, IL) and characterized in the same way Observed m/z, 635.3 (JV_H + ; calculated JVE ⁇ + for C 32 H 35 N 4 0 8 P, 635.2)].
- VIP-CAL (3) was synthesized as bllows.
- the VIP sequence with N-terminal biotin was constructed on Rink amide JVIBHA resin (0.72 timol/g; Novabiochem) by the standard 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl protocol (21) except that 4- tiethylxrityl (22) was used for side-chain protection of Lys20.
- the peptide-resin was treated with 1% TFA in dichloromethane (5 min x 10) to remove the 4-methyltrityl group and the deprotected amino group of Lys20 was acylated with 2 in l-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone containing 0.1 mM N,N- diisopropylethylamine.
- the peptide resin was treated with TFA-ethanedithiol-thioanisole-phenol (90:1:1:8) at room temperature for 2 h. After removing the resin by filtration, diethyl ether was added to the solution to afford a precipitate, which was collected by centrifugation and washed with diethyl ether.
- HPLC-purified material [retention time 50.25 min, purity 96% (220 nm); Vydac 214TP C4 column (4.6 x 250 mm); A:B 90:10 to 60:40 in 60 min (1.0 ml/min)] was characterized by ESI-MS [Observed m/z, 4071.4 (MH " ; calculated MIT" for C 185 H 282 ⁇ 49 ⁇ 49 PS 2 , 4072.0) and stored as 10 mM solution in DMSO at-70°C.
- Monoclonal anti-VIP IgG clone c23.5 and control isotype-matched IgG clone UPCIO (IgG2a, K; Sigma; St. Louis, MO) were purified from ascites by affinity chromatography on immobilized Protein G- Sepharose (23).
- Polyclonal IgG from the serum of a human subject with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (designated HS2 in ref. 24) was also purified by Protein G-Sepharose chromatography.
- the recombinant light chain of anti-VIP Ab clone c23.5 (GenBank # L34775) was expressed in bacterial periplasmic extracts and purified by binding of the his6 tag to a Ni-affinity column (15). All Abs were electrophoretically homogeneous. Protein concentrations were determined with Micro BCA Protein Assay kit (Pierce).
- CAL adducts Covalent binding assays were carried out as described previously (17,20). Briefly, IgG (1 ⁇ M) was incubated with compound 1 or 3 (10 ⁇ M) in 10 mM sodium phosphate, 0.137 M NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl (PBS, pH 7.4) containing 1 mM CHAPS and 0.1% DMSO (in 3-binding experiments) or 0.1% DMF (in 1-binding experiments) at 37°C. In some experiments, the reaction was conducted in the presence of human plasma collected in EDTA (pooled from 8 healthy blood donors; 1 % v/v).
- Band density was expressed in arbitrary area units (AAU) determined using a Fluoro-STM Multilmager (Bio-Rad), taking care that the densities were within the linear response range.
- Catalysis assays Pro-Phe-Arg-AMC (0.2 mM; Peptides International, Louisville, KY) was incubated with Ab (0.8 ⁇ M) in 96 well plates in 50mM Tris-HCl-O.lM glycine (pH 8.0) containing 0.6% DMSO and 0.025% Tween 20 at 37 °C and release of AMC determined by fluorometry ( ⁇ em 470 nm, ⁇ ex 360 nm; Gary Eclipse spectrometer; Varian; Palo Alto, CA).
- RESULTS VIP-CAL Important features in design of the VIP-CAL (compound 3, Fig 14A) are: (a) Inclusion of the electrophilic phosphonate diester group capable of selective reaction with activated nucleophiles such as are found in serine proteases (16); (b) Location of the positively charged amidino group in proximity to the phosphonate to allow recognition by the model proteolytic IgG clone c23.5, which cleaves peptide bonds preferentially on the C terminal side of basic amino acids (Arg/Lys) (23,25); and (c) Inco ⁇ oration of these groups on the side chain of Lys20 in the sequence of VIP.
- Hapten CAL 1 contains the phosphonate diester and amidino groups but is devoid of the VIP sequence.
- Location of the covalently reactive moiety at Lys20 is based on observations that the Lys20-Lys21 peptide bond is one of the bonds cleaved by monoclonal Ab clone c23.5 (23) and polyclonal human IgG preparations containing Abs to VIP (24).
- Peptide inhibitors of proteases customarily contain the covalently reactive group located within the peptide backbone or at the peptide termini (e.g., 26,27). In the present study, our purpose was to maximize the opportunity for approach of the phosphonate group within covalent binding distance of the nucleophile contained in diverse Ab active sites.
- the phosphonate group was placed at the side chain of Lys20 using a flexible linker, which allows rotation at several C-C bonds (as opposed to inclusion of the phosphonate within the peptide backbone, which may impose a greater level of conformational constraints on accessibility of this group).
- VIP-CAL 3 was synthesized by the regioselective on-resin acylation as outlined in Fig. 14B.
- the VIP sequence was constructed by solid-phase peptide synthesis with standard 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl chemistry except that the 4-methyltrityl group was used for side-chain protection of Lys at position 20 (4a).
- peptide resin 4b was acylated with 2, which was prepared from diphenyl amino(4-amidinophenyl)methanephosphonate and disuccinimidyl suberate.
- the resulting peptide resin 4c was treated with anhydrous TFA to give 3, which was purified with HPLC, yielding a single species with the anticipated mass (m/z, 4071.4; calculated value, 4072.0).
- the covalent reaction was visualized by boiling the reaction mixtures followed by denaturing SDS-electrophoresis and detection of biotin-containing adducts (Fig. 15 A, inset).
- Accumulation of covalent VIP-CAL 3 adducts with the anti-VIP Ab increased linearly as a function of time, 2 with the light chain subunit accounting for the majority of the adducts (nominal mass 29 kD determined by comparison with molecular mass standards).
- Adducts of VIP-CAL 3 with the control Ab were formed at lower levels.
- hapten CAL 1 reacted with anti-VIP and control Abs slowly compared to the VIP -CAL, and there was no preference for covalent binding of the hapten CAL at the light chain subunit.
- V app values are compiled in Table 5.
- V app of the VIP-CAL 3 reaction with the light chain was 6.6- fold greater than the heavy chain.
- Hapten CAL 1 V app values for the two subunits of this Ab were nearly equivalent.
- V app for the reaction of VIP-CAL with the anti-VIP light chain was 66-fold greater than the corresponding reaction with the control Ab light chain.
- DFP Diisopropyl fluorophosphate
- Fig 17A Three new radioactive peaks were generated from [Tyr 10 - 125 _]-VIP by treatment with the IgG (Fig 17A).
- the observed radioactive product peaks in Fig 17A likely represent mixtures of peptide fragments, as the VIP fragments generated by cleavage at the aforestated peptide bonds have previously been noted to elute from the HPLC with similar retention times (24).
- VIP-CAL 3 is an irreversible inhibitor
- aliquots of the IgG treated with varying concentrations of this compound (10, 20, 40, 80 ⁇ M) were subjected to affinity chromatography on protein G to remove the unreacted inhibitor, followed by assay of the cleavage of [Tyr 10 - 125 I]-VIP (Fig. 17B).
- Control IgG was subjected to an identical incubation without VIP-CAL followed by the chromatographic procedure. Dose-dependent inhibition of catalytic activity was evident, and near- complete inhibition of catalysis was observed at VIP-CAL concentrations >20 ⁇ M.
- the light chain subunit accounted for most of the covalent reactivity of the anti-VIP monoclonal Ab with the VIP-CAL. Reactivity with the hapten CAL serves as an index of Ab nucleophilicity independent of traditional noncovalent forces responsible for Ab-antigen complexation. Hapten CAL reactivities of the anti-VIP heavy and light chain subunits were comparable, suggesting that differences in intrinsic nucleophilic reactivity do not account for rapid formation of adducts of the light chain with the VIP-CAL. It may be concluded that the light chain nucleophile is in the immediate vicinity of the Ab noncovalent binding site, and the noncovalent binding interactions facilitate covalent binding.
- the purified light chain of this Ab is capable of specifically catalyzing the cleavage of VIP (25).
- the purified light and heavy chain subunits of the Ab were reported to bind VIP independently, determined by a conventional assay for noncovalent Ab-antigen complexes (Kd for light chain, heavy chain and intact IgG, respectively: 10.1, 6.8 and 1.9 nM; ref. 33).
- the heavy chain subunit appears to contribute noncovalent binding energy for Ab complexation with VIP, but the heavy chain nucleophile does not seem to be sufficiently in register with the phosphonate group of the VIP-CAL to participate in the covalent reaction.
- VIP-CAL adducts of the Abs obtained following removal of unreacted VIP did not display catalytic activity.
- Catalytic cleavage of Pro-Phe-Arg-AMC by the recombinant light chain of the monoclonal Ab has been documented previously (15). This reaction is characterized by 57.5-fold higher Km than the cleavage of VIP by the light chain, and is attributed to cross-reactivity of the catalytic site with peptide substrates devoid of an antigenic epitope capable of participating in high affinity noncovalent binding.
- Pro-Phe-Arg-AMC cleavage by the light chain was inhibited more potently by the VIP-CAL than the hapten CAL.
- the cleavage of VIP by polyclonal human autoantibodies to VIP was inhibited more potently by the VIP-CAL than the hapten-CAL.
- Ab diversity poses an interesting challenge in achieving antigen-specific covalent inactivation of pathogenic Abs.
- Structural differences in the variable domains underlies Ab specificity for individual antigenic epitopes, and even Abs to small molecules presenting a limited surface area can contain structurally distinct binding sites (e.g., 34,35).
- Catalytic IgG preparations from patients with autoimmune disease cleave several backbone bonds in polypeptide (7,24) and oligonucleotide (9) antigens. This may be due to the presence of multiple Ab species in polyclonal IgG preparations, each with a distinct scissile bond specificity.
- Promising means to obtain antigen-specific covalent inhibition of diverse Abs include, therefore, the exploitation of intrinsic conformational properties of Ab catalytic sites and the provision of enhanced access to the phosphonate group by manipulating the linker structure.
- Ab-antigen binding is conceived as a rigid body interaction involving inflexible surface contacts
- covalent inhibitor design must entail close topographical simulation of the transition state of each scissile bond, and individual inhibitors must be developed to effectively inhibit different catalytic Abs.
- catalytic Abs are proposed to contribute in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease.
- Specific covalent inhibitors represent a novel means to help define the precise functional effects of the Abs. Such inhibitors may serve as prototypes for development of therapeutic agents capable of imeliorating harmful Ab effects.
- reagents such as the VIP- ZAL may be useful in targeting antigen-specific B cells. The feasibility of this goal is indicated by evidence that CALs bind covalently to Abs expressed on the surface of B cells as components of the B cell receptor. 3 Ab nucleophilicity may be viewed as an indication of their competence in completing the Irst step in covalent catalysis, i.e., formation of an acyl-Ab reaction intermediate.
- noncatalytic Abs also contain nucleophiles but are unable to facilitate steps in the catalytic cycle following covalent attack on the antigen, viz., water attack on the acyl-Ab ntermediate and product release (31). Regardless of the physiological functions of nucleophiles expressed by noncatalytic Abs, their presence may allow CAL-targeting of Ab populations with established pathogenic roles, e.g., anti-factor VIE Abs in hemophilia.

- the CAL reaction provide, for the first time, the opportunity to irreversibly inactivate secreted Abs and Ab-producing cells based on antigenic specificity.
- the feasibility of this goal is supported by our observations concerning specific covalent blockade of Abs to vasoactive intestinal peptide (VTJP) by a synthetic VIP-CAL containing a phosphonate diester group on the Lys20 side chain (1).
- this approach could lead to a platform technology for treatment of diseases involving harmful Ab effects, e.g., autoimmune diseases, allergic disease and transplant rejection.
- the potential ameliorative effect of the CALs is not limited to their reaction with proteolytic Abs, as non-catalytic Abs also express nucleophilic reactivity coordinated with noncovalent antigen recognition.
- Covalent inactivation of secreted, pathogenic Abs is predicted to provide short-term relief, but inhibition of the cells responsible for Ab synthesis represents the more interesting therapeutic route.
- antigen binding to B cells stimulates clonal expansion and increased Ab synthesis.
- BCR saturation at excess antigen concentration induces clonal anergy and apoptotic death (4).
- Tolerance induction by noncovalent allergens and autoantigens is a well-established phenomenon, but success rates are limited.
- Permanent BCR occupancy by CALs is anticipated to drive the B cells into the apoptotic pathway. As in the case of conventional antigen binding, a sufficient number of BCRs must be saturated to achieve this outcome (as opposed to cell division). As dissociation of CAL-BCR complexes is precluded, BCR saturation can be more readily achieved at a small CAL concentration.
- Anti-DNA Abs are promising candidate targets for lupus therapy. Abs to double stranded DNA (dsDNA) are a diagnostic criterion for lupus, and Abs capable of binding single stranded DNA (ssDNA) and various nucleic acid-protein complexes are found as well (5,6). Abs eluted from the kidneys of lupus patients display strong reactivity with DNA, anti-DNA Abs isolated from the blood of lupus patients bind kidney sections, and adoptive transfer of anti-DNA Abs induces kidney damage in experimental animals (7,8).
- dsDNA double stranded DNA
- ssDNA single stranded DNA
- a major mechanism underlying anti-DNA pathogenicity is thought to entail the following events: binding to DNA-containing nucleosomes or a cross-reactive protein antigen, penetration of the cell and nuclear membranes, and induction of apoptotic cell death (8-11).
- Some reports suggest that the DNase activity of certain lupus Abs confers enhanced cytotoxic activity (12,13).
- Another mechanism invokes the deposition of immune complexes by binding to Fc receptors, followed by damage resulting from complement activation. Immune complexes containing DNA of varying size may not be equivalently pathogenic. These mechanisms are not mutually exclusive - for example, anti-DNA Ab binding to nucleosomes may induce complement activation and Ab internalization by the cells may occur as well.
- VIP is a 28 amino acid peptide synthesized by neurons and also produced endogenously by T cells. Originally known for the ability to relax the smooth muscle (14), VIP is now recognized as an important regulator of T cells. Abs to VIP can deplete the VIP available to T lymphocytes and other cell types in which the peptide exerts its biological effects.
- Abs to VIP as pathogenic mediators is supported by these considerations: (a) Administration of exogenous VIP completely suppresses rheumatoid arthritis in a collagen- induced animal model of the disease (15); (b) NIP autoantibodies are found in patients with respiratory diseases, lupus patients and the MRL/lpr mouse strain, which develops lupus-like disease; (c) Certain recombinant Fv clones isolated from human autoimmune phage display libraries (lupus) displayed specific VIP binding, confirming that the active site is located in the V domains (16,17); (d) Polyclonal anti-VIP Abs suppress VIP-induced synthesis cAMP, the second messenger utilized by VIP (18); (d) VIP regulates the production of cytokines by T cells (19,20) and aberrant VIP receptor expression on T cells is shown to alter their responses to antigens (21); and, (e) Alterations in the tissue concentrations of VIP have been noted in murine lupus (22). 2. CALs.
- DNA-CAL and VIP-CAL design is based on the split site model, in which the Ab nucleophile is spatially separated from the non-covalent antigen binding site. In the reaction scheme of Fig 1, CALs that fully mimic reversible antigen binding to Ab will possess low Kj (equilibrium dissociation constant) and large k 3 (strength of covalent reaction). These are desired CAL kinetic properties.
- Anti-dsDNA are established to be capable of causing kidney damage, and some evidence is available that anti-ssDNA Abs are also pathogenic (23,24). Abs to dsDNA usually also bind ssDNA, but anti-ssDNA Abs do not recognize dsDNA (5,23-26). The binding site of anti- dsDNA is usually a cleft, whereas anti-ssDNA Abs appear to contain a more shallow site with limited penetration of the DNA into the protein (24,27).
- oligonucleotides Five-mer oligonucleotides are sufficient to bind the Abs, and there is limited specificity for recognition of individual DNA sequences (5,28). However, base preferences are evident, with several anti-dsDNA Abs displaying preference for G-C rich regions, and others, for A-T rich regions regions (5,23). Contacts of Ab combining site residues with negatively charged phosphate groups as well as the bases are described, and in some Abs, base stacking within the combining site allows stabilization of the Ab-DNA complex.
- CALs can be readily prepared, e.g., the large dsDNA-CAL 1 and a single stranded oligonucleotide-CAL 2 (oligo-CAL 2).
- the starting material can be calf thymus dsDNA digested with restriction enzymes to yield ⁇ 200 bp fragments.
- Use of heterogenous dsDNA is desirable to target the spectrum of autoantibodies to dsDNA found in lupus.
- smaller dsDNA-CALs can be readily prepared based on findings that lupus anti-DNA Abs display preferences for A-T rich structural cores of DNA (e.g., ref 28)].
- dsDNA-CAL is prepared by the photochemical reaction 4'-aminomethyl-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen (AMT).
- AMT photochemical reaction 4'-aminomethyl-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen
- the primary reaction is cyclobutane ring formation between the 5,6 double bond of thymidine in DNA and the psoralen 4',5' or 3,4 double bonds.
- Reaction at the 4',5" double bond results in a monoadduct, which reacts further with a pyrimidine on the complementary strand (arrow b) forming an interstrand cross-link (A and B) (30).
- the pre-activated biotin-containing CAL moiety is linked to the amine of AMT (arrow c).
- Reaction stoichiometry is optimized to yield adducts containing 1 molecule CAL/30 bp. This is intended to enable covalent Ab binding without disrupting overall DNA structure.
- CAL density can altered if needed.
- Psoralen inco ⁇ oration is determined by measuring primary amines.
- CAL inco ⁇ oration is determined by photometric estimation of 4-nitrophenol after complete alkaline hydrolysis.
- covalent reactivity is introduced by modifying backbone phosphate diester linkages to triesters or fluorophosphate diesters. If needed, phosphonates can also be introduced into the backbone.
- the central region of the oligo-CAl can be a 16-mer [anked by 7-mer random sequences on each side [(N) 7 -(T) ⁇ 6 -(N) ], with degeneracies in the flanks introduced sing mixtures of A T/G/C during synthesis.
- VIP-CALs (see Fig 18 for structures).
- VIP-CALs are derived from a truncated fo ⁇ n of the peptide esidues 7-29; VIP-CALs 6-9) or full-length VIP (VIP-CALs 1-5).
- a truncated sequence is desirable to avoid :ceptor binding [the entire VIP sequence is needed for binding by receptors; autoantibodies recognize the C- rrninal half of VIP].
- the CAL variants shown included backbone CALs and side chain CALs. he synthesis and characterization of a VIP-CAL is described in Example El.
- carbonyl CALs are useful because of their longer half-life and superior simulation of the irbonyl reaction center in the cleavage of peptide bonds by Abs.
- An example of a carbonyl VIP-CAL is 10 wn in Fig 18. The structure of this compound is based on reports that amidinophenyl pyruvate forms rvalent complexes with serine proteases (32,33) similar to those of phosphonate CALs.
- ey elements of phosphonate VIP-CALs are: (a) the peptidic structure, allowing noncovalent binding to e Ab paratope; (b) one (monoester) or 2 leaving groups (diester) that determine the level of chemical activity of the phosphorus, and in the case of the monoester, allow expression of a negative charge on the unesterified oxygen; and (c) the positively charged amidino group. Biotin and amino acids for conjugation to carrier proteins are inco ⁇ orated at the N terminus as needed.
- the rate constant k_ (Fig 1) depends on the covalent reactivity of the phosphorus atom. CALs with different k 3 values are useful for different purposes. Rapid and complete inhibition of Abs is achieved by highly reactive CALs with large k 3 values.
- VIP-CALs 3 and 6 contains the the amidino-phosphonate diester inco ⁇ orated within the peptide backbone in place of K20. The peptide flanks are desirable to more fully capture noncovalent paratope-epitope interactions.
- VIP-CAL 3-5 and 7-9 contain the phosphonate located on NH2 side chains of the 3 K residues in VIP. Standard chemical synthesis techniques are applied (1-3,34).
- Backbone VIP-CALs are prepared by synthesizing the phosphonate diester unit in solution initially. The protected peptidyl phosphonate is coupled to the C-terminal peptide fragment prepared by solid phase synthesis using an N- terminal glycolate residue, and the product is treated with anhydrous TFA to give the desired CALs.
- Side chain CALs are prepared by conjugating diphenyl amino(4-amidinophenyl) methanephosphonate and VIP (or biotinylated VIP) using the homo-bifunctional linker, bis-sulfosuccinimidyl suberate, followed by separation f individual isomers labeled at at different Lys residues by HPLC.
- CAL identity is confirmed by mass spectroscopy/NMR.
- the position of the acylated Lys is determined by MS/MS analysis. The main pitfall in he syntheses is of side reactions at unintended groups. This is minimized by utilizing appropriate jrotecting groups.
- the pyruvyl VIP-CAL is structurally similar to 3. Preparation of this compound does not present iifficulties as the necessary reaction between the pyruvate carboxyl and side chain amine of Lys should ⁇ ceed much like the analogous reaction for VIP-CAL 4.
- Covalent Ab binding The following steps are taken to validate CAL design: (a) determine the magnitude and characteristics of covalent CAL binding by lupus Abs; and (b) determine whether CAL binding induces loss of Ab binding to DNA or VIP.
- Polyclonal Abs are employed for most validation studies, as diverse anti-DNA anti-VIP Abs found in vivo must be targeted. In some situations, use of monoclonal Abs is needed, e.g., to accurately determine kinetic constants.
- IgG purified on protein G-Sepharose is treated with increasing CAL concentrations. Covalent binding is determined by SDS-electrophoresis and staining of biotinylated bands in blots using streptavidin-peroxidase and a chemiluminescent substrate.
- the CALs will be analyzed using at least one monoclonal Ab to DNA and VIP (e.g., clone BV04-01 for the DNA-CAL; clone c23.5 for VIP-CALs).
- CAL binding and inhibition of conventional enzymes will be studied similarly to confirm CAL selectivity (serine acylases, e.g., trypsin; DNA cleaving enzymes, e,g, DNase I).
- Kitz- Wilson plots of covalent binding as a function of time and CAL concentration (35) allows estimation of Ki (strength of noncovalent binding) and k3 (strength of nucleophilic reactivity).
- Irreversibility is established by protein G chromatography of Ab-CAL complexes (to remove free CALs) followed by reanalysis of DNA and VIP binding. Loss of binding activity indicates covalent Ab inhibition.
- Standard ELISA methods are employed for this pmrpose, in which the antigen (DNA, VIP) is immobilized on the solid phase and bound Abs are determined using peroxidase conjugated anti- human/mouse IgG.
- ELISA studies are done using streptavidin plates coated with synthetic VIP/oligonucleotide biotinylated at the N terminus and 5' end, respectively. dsDNA and ssDNA from calf thymus are immobilized directly on the plates (ssDNA prepared as in ref 36).
- the oligo-CAL contains phosphate triesters/fluorophosphate diesters in its backbone, the covalent reactivity of which should be comparable to diphenyl phosphonates and DFP.
- VIP-CAL design and synthesis is modeled on our previous studies on polypeptide CALs. As diverse Abs present in lupus are targeted, any one CAL may not be sufficient to obtain complete or near-complete covalent Ab blockade. Thus, it may be necessary to use mixtures of the CALs in subsequent studies. High affinity binding due to noncovalent paratope-epitope recognition will minimize CAL reactivity with irrelevant Abs and enzymes.
- LLC-PK renal tubular cell line
- MTT assay 37.
- the IgG source is lupus patients, healthy human subjects, 8 wk old MRL/lpr mice, 20 week old MRL/lpr mice and control MRL/++ mice at equivalent ages.
- at least one monoclonal L chain is analyzed to exclude confounding effects due to Ab heterogeneity (e.g., clone KM38).
- IgG is incubated in diluent or various concentrations of DNA-CALs and control DNA (devoid of the CAL moiety), free ligand is removed as in Aiml, and the mixtures mixed with cells cultured in 24-well plates. Cytotoxicity is quantified after 24 h. Control wells receive no Ab. Confirmation is obtained by microscopic inspection after staining with propidium iodine (dead cells) and Hoechst 33342 (dead+live cells). Additional studies are done by treating the cells with Abs and CALs without removal of free CALs - these are needed to show that the CALs do not themselves exert a cytotoxic effect, and that a beneficial effect is obtained when the CALs and the cells compete with each other for Ab binding.
- Direct cytotoxic effects of lupus Abs in the kidney are generally conceived to involve Ab binding to DNA-containing antigens and/or cross-reactive protein antigens, followed by penetration of the cell/nuclear membranes by pathways that are remain to be defined fully. Covalent Ab engagement by CALs should permanently knock out the antigen binding function. Thus, unless an Fc effector function is involved, CAL-bound Abs are anticipated to be devoid of cytotoxic effects (note that there is no source of complement or ADCC-competent cells in the cultures, minimizing the likelihood of Fc involvement). DNA-CAL inhibition of kidney antigen recognition.
- kidney cryostat sections from wild type MRL/++ mice as well as MRL/lpr mice are analyzed, as increased nucleosome formation in lupus is suggested to allow increased opportunity for anti-DNA Ab binding (38).
- Immunofluorescence methods are employed to determine binding of control IgG and IgG treated with DNA-CALs (IgG from 8 wk old MRL/lpr mice, 20 week.
- DNA-CALs can be administered to MRL/lpr mice at two ages: 8 wks and 14 wks.
- Serum Abs to certain autoantigens begin to appear at 8 wks and most Abs characteristic of lupus are detected by 14 wks, when kidney damage is overt. Mortality increases rapidly after age 16 wks, and 50% mortality occurs at 22-24 wks.
- DNA-CALs e.g., at 2 week intervals.
- Control mice receive diluent. Groups of 8 mice each in the 8 wk cohort are euthanized at 2 wk intervals for detailed analysis until 26 wks (8 mice/group; 10 groups, including the 8 wk baseline group).
- mice each in the 14 wk cohort are euthanized at 2 wk intervals until 26 wks (7 groups including the 14 wk baseline).
- eye bleeds are drawn 1 day after each CAL administration for study of acute CAL effects on Ab binding and catalytic activities (see below).
- CAL doses are adjusted based on in vitro efficacy data (assuming a distribution volume of ⁇ 10 ml), which are predicted to indicate that nM CAL concentrations are sufficient in inhibit the anti-DNA Abs.
- a mixture of the dsDNA-CAL/oligo-CAL is studied initially to obtain inhibition of diverse Ab subtypes. Subsequent studies include analysis of multiple concentrations of the CALs administered separately as needed.
- Serum anti-dsDNA ssDNA titers are measured by ELISA. Reduced anti-DNA titers are predicted (unless anti-DNA Ab replenishment occurs more rapidly than their covalent blockade). Residual DNA-CAL binding activities of serum IgG is measured as before. The DNA-CALs are not anticipated to serve as immunogens for additional anti-dsDNA Ab synthesis, as elicitation of these Abs requires coimmunization with DNA binding proteins and adjuvant (39). Anti-DNA immune responses are theorized to initiate lupus (e.g., 40). For example, Ab responses to several other autoantigens may be explained by 'epitope spreading' phenomena, in which the presence of cells sensitized to DNA can facilitate Ab responses to proteins associated with DNA.
- Ab and C3 deposition in kidney sections will be by staining with anti-mouse Ig/anti-mouse C3 labeled with FITC, with consideration given to the magnitude and site of staining (e.g., basement membrane, subepithelial spaces, cell surfaces, nuclei).
- the general health and mortality is recorded by daily inspection of the mice. Once initial data are in hand, repeat experiments can be carried out as needed with sufficient numbers of mice for the study to be statistically powered to enable detection of 20% improvement in mortality.
- VIP-CAL effect on cytokine synthesis VIP exerts important effects at several critical steps in T cell differentiation, including cytokine synthesis and expression of membrane proteins (e.g., Fas ligand expression, costimulatory protein B7.2).
- VIP-CALs are studied for the ability to correct changes in T cell cytokine synthesis induced by anti-VIP Abs.
- T cells from transgenic mice overexpressing the type 2 VIP receptor (VPACR2) are employed as in previous studies (41).
- T-helper responses are associated with VPACR2 upregulation, which makes this experimental system directly relevant to lupus.
- Readily detectable changes in cytokine synthesis accompanied by depletion of VIP are observed by treating the VPACR2 overexpressing T cells with an anti-VIP Ab.
- T cells isolated from the mice using anti-CD4 magnetic beads are cultured for 96 h with VIP-CALs mixed with anti-VIP Abs (monoclonal c23.5 IgG and isotype-matched nonimmune IgG: IgG from 8 wk old MRL/lpr mice, 20 week old MRL/lpr mice and equivalently aged control MRL ++ mice).
- Anti-VIP concentrations as small as 10 nM are sufficient to induce decreased secretion of IFN- ⁇ and decreased secretion of IL-4.
- ELISA methods are used to measure IFN- ⁇ and IL-4 secretion by the T cells. As before, removal of free CAL prior to Ab treatment of the cells allows determination of irreversible VIP-CAL effects.
- Anti-VIP Ab treatment depletes VIP in T cells, which is thought to disturb autocrine T cell regulation by the peptide.
- it is useful to measure the ability of VIP-CALs to restore VIP levels to control levels in the Ab treated cells (by radioimmunoassy of total VIP following dissociation of Ab-VIP complexes at acid pH as in previous studies, ref 18,42).
- Direct interaction of VIP-CALs with lymphocyte VIP receptors is precluded, as receptor binding requires the entire sequence of VIP (the CALs contain truncated VIP).
- the VIP-CALs can be analyzed for beneficial effects separately or a mixture of VIP-CALs based on the in vitro efficacy data can be analyzed. Even if CAL half-life is on the order of hours, observation of beneficial effects can be anticipated. Provided sufficient initial CAL concentrations are obtained, the reaction with Abs should be complete quickly.
- other lupus-prone mouse strains can be analyzed prior to consideration of humans studies (NZB/W FI; BXSB). 4. Tolerance Induction.
- Antigen-specific covalent receptor engagement has become feasible by the development of LaCALs.
- Covalent BCR and TCR occupancy holds the potential of inducing antigen-specific tolerance of the B and T cells by driving these cells into apoptosis. If needed, this effect of LaCALs can be supplemented by including within these compounds a toxin, which will kill the targeted cells selectively, without causing systemic side effects.
- Attachment of toxins such as pseudomomas endotoxin and ricin to various proteins has been described in detail in the literature and can be accomplished by protein chemistry conjugation or genetic fusion techniques (43).
- hapten CALs such as compound I (Fig 19) react irreversibly with nucleophilic sites in conventional serine proteases and Abs (3,35,44-47). Methods for synthesis of this compound, preparation of B cells from mice, flow cytometric analysis of binding to the cells and electrophoretic measurement of covalent binding to lg subunits are described in refs 3,35,48.
- hapten CALs such as compound I (Fig 19) react irreversibly with nucleophilic sites in conventional serine proteases and Abs (3,35,44-47).
- Methods for synthesis of this compound, preparation of B cells from mice, flow cytometric analysis of binding to the cells and electrophoretic measurement of covalent binding to lg subunits are described in refs 3,35,48.
- viable splenocytes from BALB/c mice were treated with hapten CAL I.
- the control compound U is identical in structure to hapten CAL I, except that the phosphonate group is not esterified, which results in loss of covalent reactivity with nucleophilic residues (3,35).
- Treatment with hapten CAL I resulted in staining of most of cells at levels greater than compound H, with a minority of the cells displaying intense staining (11 ⁇ 2, N 3 experiments; determined by counting 400 lymphocytes using a UV microscope). All of the hapten CAL I-stained cells displayed lymphocytic mo ⁇ hology, with no evident staining of monocytes or the occasional basophil. No loss of viability of the cells was evident following incubation with hapten CAL I or compound II, as determined by trypan blue exclusion.
- hapten CAL I To identify the nucleophilic molecules on the cell surface, purified B cells were labeled with hapten CAL I, detergent extracts of the cells were boiled and then analyzed by SDS-electrophoresis. Only limited hapten CAL-containing proteins were evident (Fig 21 A). As expected, silver staining revealed the presence of heterogeneous species, reflecting the complex protein constitution of the cells. The mass of the predominant hapten CAL adduct band was 70 kD, and this band was stainable by anti- ⁇ chain Ab (Fig 21B). Smaller amounts of hapten CAL-containing bands were evident at 25 kD, 40 kD, 50 kD, 55-60 kD, 90-135 kD and 140 kD.
- the bands at 55-60 kD and 140 kD were stainable by the anti- ⁇ Ab, and the bands at 25 kD and 50 kD were stainable with anti- ⁇ / ⁇ Ab.
- the anomalous ⁇ and ⁇ / ⁇ bands at mass range different from the full-length monomer proteins presumably represent unreduced oligomers, breakdown products and truncated B cell lg products, as also observed in previous studies of secreted Abs and B cell extracts (22-24).
- the minor bands at 40 kD and 90-135 kD that were not stainable with Abs to ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ ⁇ (Fig 21 B) and ⁇ chains (not shown) presumably represent non-Ig proteins.
- B cells are prepared from spleens of MRL/lpr mice. These mice synthesize specific autoantibodies to VIP (16,17) and DNA (23). If needed, B cells can also be prepared from mice immunized with VIP and dsDNA (induction of Abs to DNA is possible when DNA is complexed to proteins such as histone).
- Purified B cells from spleens will be obtained from the MRL/lpr mice (10-12 wks age) along with the control non-autoimmune strain negative for the autoantibodies (MRL/++) using a negative selection kit (Miltenyi).
- B cells are incubated with the CALs for a suitable length of time, the cells are washed and then extracted with detergent (9 mM CHAP).
- Ig subunits are purified by affinity chromatography using immobilized Abs to ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ /surrogate L chains (surrogate L chains are components of the pre-BCR expressed on immature B cell). Control affinity columns consist of immobilized Abs to an irrelevant protein.
- CAL-adducts are identified by biotin detection on reducing SDS-gels. Concentrations of individual Ig subunits are determined by conventional ELISAs using immobilized Abs to Ig subunits (with the authentic proteins as standards). Data are expressed as band intensities/Ig concenfration. To confirm band identity, the blots are stained with specific peroxidase conjugated Abs to the Ig subunits. As in previous studies, crude cell exfracts of cell- CAL reaction mixtures are also analyzed by SDS-PAGE (without prior affinity chromatography - this is needed to compute the proportion of labeling attributable to the BCR).
- Frozen spleen sections are analyzed for CAL staining to define any distinctive mo ⁇ hological location occupied by the CAL-labeled B cells [follicular cells tend to be immature B cells; marginal zone cells are more mature].
- Flow cytometry of cells stained with Abs to ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ ⁇ and surrogate L chains identifies the preferred Ab class synthesized by the most CAL reactive cells.
- B-1 cells [CD45(B220'°), IgM hi , CD23 " , CD43 + , IgD 10 ] tend to be responsible for autoreactive Ab production. As VIP and DNA are autoantigens, preferential production of nucleophilic Abs to these antigens is likely. The spleen does not contain large numbers of B-1 cells/early B cell progenitors. Peritoneal cells, which are richer in B-1 cells, can be analyzed further if needed.
- Cellular stimulation by CALs in vitro Cultured cells will be stimulated with the hapten CALs, VIP-CAL or DNA-CAL (increasing concentration; varying length of time).
- Compound 3 which is devoid of a covalently reactive group, is the confrol.
- An additional control is the treatment of cells with anti-IgM Ab. The following assays are done. Cellular DNA synthesis is measured using a BrDU inco ⁇ oration kit. Controls include cells incubated with the nucleotide in the absence of CALs.
- the cells will be washed following in vitro treatment with the CALs, maintained in culture without the antigen, and the number of antibody forming cells will be determined by flow cytometry (staining with Abs to ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ ).
- flow cytometry staining with Abs to ⁇ / ⁇ / ⁇ .
- the CALs hold the potential of inducing cell death leading to tolerance.
- The is tested following CAL freatment by flow cytometry by the TUNEL method (TdT-mediated dUTP Nick End Labeling; using fluorescein dUTP to abel strand breaks). Instrument calibration, side and forward scatter, and compensation values are established and reconfirmed periodically.
- Anti-Fas Ab will be employed as the positive control.
- specificity of the effects induced in vitro is indicated by responses to VEP-CAL or DNA-CAL at evels exceeding the hapten CAL.
- Comparisons of the effects of VIP-CAL and DNA-CAL with those of IP and DNA devoid of the CAL moiety, respectively, will serve as an index of effects attributable to the :ovalent binding reaction.
- the number of VIP binding B cells and DNA binding B cells will be determined in splenocyte preparations of mice that have received the corresponding LaCAL administrations. This is done by flow cytometry using biotinylated VIP, dsDNA and single stranded oligonucleotide probes. Streptavidin- peroxidase is used to identify VIP and DNA bound to the cells. Staining for anti-CD19 conjugated to phycoerthyrin identifies the B cell subpopulation. Confirmatory studies are done using ELISASPOT methods, in which B cells are stimulated by VIP or DNA in vitro to determine downregulation of Ab synthetic responses attributable to in vivo CAL treatments.

- VPAC2 Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide
- FVEI Factor VEI Abs to Factor VEI
- FVIE is a component of the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation, serving as a cofactor for Factor IXa catalyzed conversion of Factor X to Factor Xa.
- CAL derivatives of Factor VEI are candidate reagents for achieving selective covalent blockage of secreted anti-FVIE Abs and inducing the death of anti-FVEI producing B cells.
- Two CALs are exemplified here: (i) the whole protein FVBT-CAL derivitized at Lys side chains with amidino phosphonate diester groups using recombinant FVIE as precursor (Fig 22); and (ii) the peptidyl FVEI(484-508)-CAL with the amidino phosphonate diester placed at the C terminus.
- a flexible linker is used to attach the phosphonate group to the protein, allowing the latter group to sample a larger amount of the conformational space available in the Ab-CAL complex. This is designed to permit the reaction with Ab nucleophiles positioned with somewhat different topography relative to the noncovalent epitope recognition site.
- Induction of tolerance is indicated by the following data: demonstration of specific and covalent CAL binding to anti-FVEI producing B cells; induction of cell death; and reduction in the number of Ab producing cells.
- the present example describes methods to discover NuRs suitable for targeting by hapten CALs and LaCALs.
- the mass of the hapten CAL I-protein adduct bands observed by SDS-gel lecetrophoresis s corresponded to the predicted mass of the adducts [gpl20 ⁇ 120 D; human serum albumin ⁇ 67 kD; soluble epidermal growth factor receptor (sEGFR; residues 1-621) ⁇ 85 kD; ovalbumin ⁇ 44 kD; soluble CD4 (2 domain, residues 1-183)
- Fig 23 is known to display enzymatic activity to our knowledge. All reactions were conducted at an equivalent protein/hapten CAL I molar ratio. The hapten CAL I binding activity per unit protein was variable over a four orders of magnitude. Two protein, human serum albumin and sEGFR, formed adducts with hapten CAL E, a compound devoid of the positively charged amidino group at the PI position.
- gpl20-hapten CAL I binding properties of gpl20 were examined further.
- the formation of gpl20-hapten CAL I adducts was time-dependent (Fig 24A).
- kobs kobs(max)/(l + ⁇ o pKa ⁇ pH ), where kobs(max) represents the extrapolative maximum value of kobs.
- the near-neutral pKa value for the nucleophilic site of gpl20 is similar to the enzymatic site found in serine proteases.
- Kinetic parameters were extracted by conducting the reaction at varying hapten CAL I concentrations as shown in Fig 24C.
- the kobs value at each hapten CAL I concentration was extracted from least-square- fitted progress curves (r2, 0.93-0.99) as before.
- Calmodulin is known to bind VIP devoid of the CAL group by noncovalent means with high affinity (2).
- Preparation and characterization of the VIP-CAL is described in Example E, Fig 13.
- calmodulin displays only low-level nucleophilic reactivity. Nevertheless, calmodulin rapidly formed adducts with VIP-CAL (Fig 26B).
- the reaction rate of calmodulin with VIP-CAL was substantially greater than with hapten CAL, even though the latter reagent was available at a 50-fold greater concentration.
- the second-order rate constants for the reaction of calmodulin with VIP-CAL and hapten CAL were 567 ⁇ 77 M “1 min "1 and 0.212 ⁇ 0.017 M “1 min "1 , respectively.
- Inclusion of VIP devoid of the CAL group in the reaction mixture resulted in diminished formation of calmodulin adducts with the VIP-CAL, demonstrating the specificity of the reaction.
- NuRs can be targeted for specific covalent inactivation by CAL derivatives of ligands that bind NuRs noncovalently.
- the two domain soluble form of CD4 corresponding to residues 1-173 is suitable as the starting material for LaCAL preparation.
- Phosphonate diester groups were placed on Lys side chains of this molecule essentially as described for EGFR described in Example I. Biotin is inco ⁇ orated at the N-terminus of the peptides or at Lys side chains to monitor the binding reaction.
- Certain linear peptides derived from CD4 bind the monomer gpl20 as well as the native protein on the viral surface.
- small peptide CD4 analogs a mimetic containing certain CD4 contact residues embedded in a scyllatoxin scaffold appears to bind gpl20 with highest affinity [5]. This peptide serves as an example of peptide-CAL derivatives that can be employed for targeting gpl20 (Fig 27).
- the next step was the validation of the sCD4-CAL. This was done as in the preceding Example, by measuring the ability of purified gpl20 to form specific and covalent adducts with sCD4-CAL (Fig 28). Denaturing SDS-electrophoresis showed the formation of a 140 kD adduct in the reaction mixture, corresponding to the expected adducts. Albumin did not form detectable adducts with sCD4-CAL under these reaction conditions. Formation of the sCD4-Cal adducts of gpl20 was inhibited by inclusion of sCD$ devoid of the phosphonate diesters in the reaction (Fig 28B). An irrelevant protein, soybean tryspin inhibitor did not inhibit adduct formation. These data indicate the specificity of the covalent reaction of sCD4-CAL with gpl20.
- Kd a measure of the strength of noncovalent binding
- k3 the strength of the nucleophilic reactivity
- Specificity is determined by measuring binding of irrelevant CALs, e.g., VIP-CAL and Factor VEI-CAL.
- nactivation of gpl20 is measured by determining the potency with which sCD-CALs and their confrol ⁇ ounte ⁇ arts devoid of phosphonate diester groups inhibit HIV infection.
- sCD4-CAL underivitized peptide [ 20 AGSF 23 ]ST and underivitized sCD4 are analyzed for embarkralization of HIV infection [6].
- the sCD4-CAL is incubated with HIV-1 in )6-well assay plates in quadruplicate. 100 TCID50/well virus is used. 3 X 10 5 PHA-stimulated human )eripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)/well are added and the plates incubated for 72 hours. The slates are centrifuged and the cells washing the plates three times with fresh medium.
- p24 is quantified by enzymeirnmunoassay using a kit from Beck-manCoulter.
- the data are Stted with a sigmoidal dose-response curve with variable slope (Hill-type function) using Prism software.
- Ihe endpoint titer for neutralization is defined as the inte ⁇ olated titer at which there is a 50% or a 90% nhibition of p24 expression relative to controls.
- HIV-1 strains drawn from clades A, B, C, D and E are studied. Strains that utilize both R5 and X4 chemokine coreceptors are included in the studies. HIV duralization by sCD4-Cal at levels exceeding :he neutralization by the control sCD4 suggests increased potency due to the covalent reaction.
- the covalent reactivity of the sCD4-CALs can be optimized further by using superior leaving groups, ..g., p-nitrophenol, and flanking residue specificity can be improved by empirical studies in which the amidino group and various amino acids are replaced by other analogs/amino acids.
- Additional factors important for therapy include the stability of the sCD4-CALs in vivo and their ability to penetrate lymphoid organs, which can harbor large amounts of HIV. Improved stailixy could potentially be obtained by using carbonyl CALs of sCD4. The tissue penetration capability of the CALs could be achieved using peptide tags or conjugation to other molecules that are transported rapidly across various blood-tissue barriers.

- Example VH Covalent gpl20 Self-assembly and Vaccine Application This Example illustrates the utility of preparing covalent mimetics of biological self-assemblies using the LaCAL techniques.
- Our premise is that weak electrophile-nucleophile pairing provides an important contribution in homo-association and hetero-association reaction involving biological molecules.
- nucleophilic sites in one molecule can pair with electrophilic sites in another molecule as a contributory force in the ordered assembly of the NuR complexes.
- Placing artifical electrophilic probes within the NuR therefore, hold the potential of yielding stable and correctly assembled NuR complexes mimicking the native NuR assembled structure.
- the reaction can anticipated to proceed as an ordered process because noncovalent interactions between gpl20 monomers result in correct apposition of the nucleophiles and electrophiles necessary for formation of stable oligomers that mimic the native oligomer.
- Previous studies have shown that gpl20 expressed in mammalian cells in the absence of gp41 forms oligomeric species under certain experimental conditions [1]. The predominant form is the dimer.
- the V2 loop has been found to be important for the gp41 -independent process of gpl20 association [1].
- the affinity of gpl20 monomers for each other is too low to allow formation of stable, noncovalently- bonded oligomers at the concentrations generally used in experimental studies (nanomolar-low micromolar).
- gpl20 fulfils the criteria for designation is a NuR.
- gpl20-CAL preparation and oligomerization Preparation of gpl20-CAL and biotinylated gpl20-CAL is described in our recent publication (2). Briefly, gpl20-CAL was prepared from recombinant gpl20 and an acylating agent I (Fig. 29), which was Drepared from diphenyl amino(4-amidinophenyl)methane-phosphonate [3] and the commercially available homobifunctional cross-linking agent, bis(sulfosuccinimidyl)suberate disodium salt.
- Biotinylated gpl20-CAL (Bt-gpl20-CAL) was prepared in the same manner from biotinylated gpl20, which was prepared from recombinant gpl20 and a commercially available biotinylation reagent, 6- biotinamidohexanoic acid N-hydroxy-3-sulfosuccinimidyl ester. Quantification of biotin introduced and amine consumed using 2-(4'-hydroxyazobenzene)benzoic acid [4] and fluorescamine [5] revealed that biotin/gpl20 and phosphonate/gpl20 molar ratios were 0.6-0.8 and 5-27, respectively.
- Denaturing gel electrophoretic analysis revealed the self-oligomerization of gpl20-CAL (Fig. 30A).
- the oligomers were stable to boiling for 10 min. exEGFR-CAL showed no oligomerized species (Fig. 30B), indicating that the covalent self-oligomerization is a specific property of gpl20.
- Oligomerization appears dependent on the degree of phosphonate-derivatization. gpl20 that had not been derivitized with electrophilic groups did not form covalent oligomers. Therefore, the likely reaction is the covalent binding between phosphonate diester moieties and an amino acid expressing an activated nucleophile.
- gpl20 reacts rapidly with a hapten CAL, consistent with the conclusion reached from the self-oligomerization studies. From these results, the structure of a gpl20-CAL is postulated as shown in Fig. 31.
- Abs Inducing broadly neutralizing Abs has been an important challenge towards development of HIV-1 vaccine [7-10]. Most Abs elicited against monomeric gpl20 by experimental vaccination are not capable of neutralizing HIV-1 infectivity of primary isolates [11-14]. These Abs are generally directed against the immunodominant V3 loop of gpl20, which is also a region subject to high rates of mutation, allowing emergence of viral variants that can not be controlled by the Abs. Many Abs that recognize the CD4- binding site (CD4bs) of monomer gpl20 also failed to neutralize HIV-1. This has been attributed to difference in the structure of the CD4bs of monomer gpl20 and native xrimeric gpl20 expressed on the viral surface.
- CD4bs CD4- binding site
- the immunoreactivity of the gpl20-CAL with antibodies Abs raised to control monomeric gpl20 devoid of phosphonate was measured.
- the anti-gp 120 antibody preparation displayed 3-4 fold lower binding to immobilized gpl20-CAL compared to immobilized gpl20 (e.g., at serum dilution of 1 : 1000, A490 0.44 ⁇ 0.03 for immobilized gpl20-CAL and 1.40 ⁇ 0.03 for immobilized gpl20).
- gpl20-CAL binding by nonimmune Abs was negligible, indicating that indiscriminate covalent binding at the hapten groups was not a problem.
- the SDS treatment allowed essentially complete removal of anti-gp 120 antibodies bound by control gpl20 devoid of phosphonate groups.
- seven monoclonal anti-gp 120-CAL antibodies displayed SDS-resistant gp 120-CAL binding (2).
- Three of these antibodies catalyzed the cleavage of biotinylated gpl20 determined by electrophoresis assays (2).
- PHA phytohemagglutinin
- PBMCs peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- Fig 33 shows the results for a primary isolate of HIV-1 belonging to Clade C (strain ZA009, R5 coreceptor dependent). Additional strains neutralized by the three anti-gp 120-CAL monoclonal antibodies were BR004 and SF-162. These data indicate the potential of gp 120-CAL to induce neutralizing antibody responses.
- HIV-1 g ⁇ l20 monomers When used as the basis for experimental HIV vaccines, HIV-1 g ⁇ l20 monomers have repeatedly failed to elicit effective cross-protective immune responses. In general, these antibodies do not display cross-clade neutralization of HIV infection, particularly HIV strains that utilize CCR5 chemokine coreceptors.
- Soluble variants of gp41 are included in the gp 120-CAL preparation to promote correct assembly of gpl20 oligomers. Varying molar ratios of g41 variants/gp 120-CAL mixtures are analyzed to optimize the reaction.
- the structure of monomer gp 120-CAL is varied to promote correct self assembly.
- the linker connecting gpl20 to the electrophile may influence the rate of oligomer formation and the level of mimicry of native gpl20 oligomers.
- the sites at which the electrophile is introduced into gpl20 may be important.
- linkers with different chain lengths e.g., 4-carbon and 12- carbon linkers; current version, 8 carbon-length
- reaction chemistry Asp/Glu attachment and Ser/Thr attachment; current version, Lys attachment
- Bifunctional linkers with 4- carbon and 12-carbon lengths with functional groups allowing attachment to various amino acid side chains are commercially available. Their derivatization with the phosphonate can be done in the same manner as indicated for the acylating agent shown in Fig. 29.
- Gpl20 oligomers are purified as stable oligomers by gel filtration chromatography.
- the utility of the gp 120-CAL oligomers is determined by immunization of mice as in our previous studies (2).
- Monomer gpl20 devoid of phosphonate groups is used as the control immunogen.
- Polyclonal IgG samples raised in BALB/c mice are characterized by ELISA using the above immunogens as immobilized antigens and by neutralization of primary isolates of HIV-1. Monoclonal Abs aree prepared and screened by ELISA and their neutralizing activity will be determined.
- the polyclonal IgG studies help define the proportion of the overall Ab response with the desired activities.
- Monoclonal Ab studies are needed to define the heterogeneity of the response and determine whether individual Abs possess broad neutralizing activity.
- the monoclonal Abs with promising HIV neutralizing activity in the initial screen are characterized further for binding to the native env complex (by flow cytometry using HIV infected cells) and ability to neutralize diverse, R-5 dependent primary isolates of HIV-1 drawn from various clades.
- Flow cytometry is done as follows. PHA-stimulated human PBMCs are infected with HIV-1 as above. Since some clades replicate faster than other clades in PBMC, cells are monitored for viral antigen expression by flow cytometry using HIVIG (AEDS Research and Reference Reagent Program) in preliminary experiments. 5 x 10 5 HIV-infected and non-infected, PHA-activated PBMCs will be incubated with the monoclonal Abs for 45 min on ice followed by 2 washes in PBS.
- HIVIG AEDS Research and Reference Reagent Program
- Covalent gp 120-CAL oligomers proposed here hold potential as possible immunogens for inducing protective anti-viral response.
- persistent and repeated stimulation of B cells with the oligomers is desirable.
- Noncovalent oligomers possess limited capability of achieving this goal unless the protein is maintained at concentrations substantially in excess of the Kd of monomer self association.
- a covalently stabilized oligomer remains associated regardless of the protein concentration, which is hypothesized to allow superior anti-oligomer responses in vivo.
- the covalent linkage strategy derives from our recent findings that gpl20 is a NuR.
- the phosphonate diphenyl ester proposed here is a weak electrophilic reagent. This reagent forms a covalent bond specifically with a nucleophilic functional group (such as the hydroxyl group of Ser) that has been activated with the aid of a general base (such as the imidazole group of His).
