Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel Previbacillus ⁇ Brevibacillus choskiiiensis. More specifically, the present invention relates to Brevibacillus spp. Sinensis which has a significantly reduced extracellular and intracellular proteolytic activity and does not form spores. In addition, the present invention relates to a method for producing a protein by genetic recombination using the Brevibacillus schiyosinensis as a host. Background art
- Genetic recombination technology is difficult to isolate because of its presence in living organisms in very small amounts, and it has been extremely difficult to use proteins or polypeptides with arbitrary amino acid sequences in bacteria or animal cells. It has made it possible to produce a large amount of this as a host.
- Various bacteria are used as hosts for protein production by genetic recombination The most widely used bacteria are large S. cerevisiae.
- Escherichia coli as a host, the produced protein accumulates in the cells, and the volume of cells becomes the upper limit of the amount of protein produced, resulting in large-scale production of protein. Is difficult.
- Bacillus subtilis a typical bacterium capable of secreting and producing proteins, as a host.
- Bacillus subtilis a typical bacterium capable of secreting and producing proteins
- the produced recombinant protein is secreted and produced in the medium. Therefore, this dead Bacillus subtilis systems have excellent properties not found in Escherichia coli systems, such as no need for cell disruption to recover proteins and little endotoxin generation.
- Bacillus subtilis has the property of secreting large amounts of proteolytic enzymes extracellularly, so that the secreted and produced recombinant protein is degraded by the proteolytic enzyme, and the yield of recombinant protein is reduced. There was a big problem that the number was extremely low. Therefore, various efforts have been made to reduce the production of Bacillus subtilis proteolytic enzymes. Nevertheless, little has been known about the use of Bacillus subtilis-hosted recombinant protein production systems for the industrial production of heterologous proteins.
- Bacillus subtilis in order to avoid this problem of the Bacillus subtilis system, a new recombinant protein that uses a bacterium that secretes and produces a recombinant protein outside the cell but does not secrete proteolytic enzymes outside the cell is used. Production system development was performed. As a result, Bacillus brevis 47 (Bacillus brevis 47), which has weaker protease activity than Bacillus subtilis and has a higher protein secretory productivity than Bacillus subtilis, has been disclosed. Bacillus brevis as a host successfully developed a recombinant protein production system.
- Non-Patent Document 1 (Brevibacillus brevis), Brevibacillus brevis, etc.).
- Bacillus brevis 47 also had a weak extracellular proteolytic activity.
- Recombinant protein production using Bacillus brevis as a host requires a relatively long (usually about 313) culture power. Therefore, even if the extracellular proteolytic activity of Bacillus brevis cells is weak, the produced recombinant protein is degraded by the extracellular proteolytic activity and the yield of recombinant protein decreases. There was a case. To solve this problem, efforts have been made to further reduce the extracellular proteolytic activity of Bacillus previs.
- Brevibacillus choshinensis HPD 31 is a strain in which Bacillus previs strains are screened over a wide range, have extremely low extracellular proteolytic activity, and have excellent protein secretion productivity.
- FE RM BP — 1087 FE RM BP _ 68 63: same strain as Bacillus brevis H102 (Patent Document 2)
- FE RM BP _ 68 63 same strain as Bacillus brevis H102 (Patent Document 2)
- Previbacillus tyyosinensis HPD31-S5 Bacillus brevis H102 (Patent Document 2)
- FERM BP-6623 This strain was deposited under the designation Bacillus brevis HPD31-S5) was isolated.
- These strains have also been used as hosts in the production of various recombinant proteins, including human epidermal growth factor (hEGF).
- hEGF human epidermal growth factor
- Non-Patent Document 2 (in this document, Brevibacillus schiyosinensis HPD31 is referred to as Bacillus brevis HPD31). Others are shown.
- Bacillus brevis 31-OK strain which is called a mutant Bacillus previs which does not substantially exhibit proteolytic enzyme activity (proteolytic activity)
- proteolytic activity has also been disclosed (Patent Document 3).
- Patent Document 3 a band indicating that the proteolytic activity remains was confirmed in the results of the evaluation test of the proteolytic activity by the gelatin-PAGE method. The outside proteolytic activity was not lost. Furthermore, no elucidation of this extracellular proteolytic activity at the gene level has been made at all. That is, no proteolytic enzyme was isolated, and even the gene sequence was not even cloned.
- these Brevibacillus schiyosinensis are obtained by screening or mutagenesis by treatment with a mutagen, and the proteolytic enzyme gene on the genome is identified. It was not obtained by inactivating the gene. Therefore, Brevibacillus tychodinensis, which has identified a proteolytic enzyme gene on the genome and further reduced the proteolytic activity by inactivating the gene, has not been known so far.
- Brevibacillus tychosinensis is also known to cause lysis of some cells during culturing, and as a result, the intracellular proteins including intracellular proteases are eluted in the medium. Has been. For this reason, even a recombinant protein secreted and produced outside the cell may be degraded by the eluted intracellular protease.
- the intracellular proteolytic activity of Brevibacillus reticulosinensis has not been elucidated at the gene level. That is, There is no known example of isolating intracellular proteolytic enzymes of Brevibacillus sp. Also, no example is known in which the cloning and sequencing of the intracellular proteinase gene are performed.
- Plebibacillus schiyosinensis may form sporophytes, similar to Bacillus bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis. Spore bodies have higher heat resistance than living cells (non-spore cells) and require strict sterilization conditions. For this reason, Brevibacillus tiyocinensis is used as a host, especially in the production of recombinant protein drugs that require assurance of complete sterilization and removal of bacterial cells, including spores, in the production line after completion of culture. However, the production required a rather difficult technology.
- Brevibacillus choshinensis usable as a recombinant host in a wide range of industrial applications, including the production of recombinant protein drugs, mild sterilization conditions (without sporangial formation) Previbacillus that can be completely killed even at 60 ° C to 100 ° C).
- the D value of living cells (non-spore cells) of Previbacillus choshinensis is less than 1 minute. It is about.
- Bacillus subtilis SMS 275 (Patent Document 4: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 28-87686) is disclosed as a non-spore-free strain.
- Patent Document 4 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 28-87686

- the objective is to obtain Brevibacillus tychosinensis whose extracellular proteolytic activity is much lower than that of known strains. Also, to obtain Brevibacillus tychosinensis whose intracellular proteolytic activity is significantly reduced as compared with known strains. Still further, the goal is to obtain Brevibee /consult chinensis that does not form sporophytes and therefore die completely under mild sterilization conditions.

- "the extracellular and intracellular proteolytic activities are significantly reduced compared to known strains" also includes the complete disappearance of the activities.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a protein by genetic recombination using the Brevibacillus tychodinens as a host.
- the present inventors first obtained a strain of Brevibacillus tychosinensis which does not have a spore-forming ability by using, as a parent strain, Previbacillus tychosinensis HPD31, which has been used as a host for production of a recombinant protein, Attempt to obtain mutant strains First, a mutant strain was selected based on the change in colony morphology as an index. The strains that formed were selected. Furthermore, among these strains, those that could not confirm spores by microscopic observation were selected as strains having ⁇ fe that do not have sporulation ability.
- an evaluation test for the ability to form spores was performed on these strains that may not have the ability to form spores, and strains that did not have the ability to form spores were selected. Furthermore, an evaluation test of the productivity of the recombinant protein using this strain as a host was performed, and a recombinant protein equivalent to the known strain Previbacillus typhosinens HPD31 used as a host for genetically modified recombinant proteins was used. A mutant having the above productivity was selected. As described above, the present inventors have obtained Brevibacillus' choshinensis having no sporulation ability. -.

As a result, the present inventors succeeded in cloning the genes of two types of novel proteases, namely, IMP, which is a major intracellular protease, and EMP, which is a major extracellular protease. Brevibacillus choshinensis was prepared by inactivating the gene.
- the present inventors carried out the inactivation of a specific protein-degrading enzyme gene on the genome of Plebinovirus typhidinosa by the method according to known homologous recombination. As described below, each inactivation of each gene leaves a marker gene such as a drug resistance gene on the genome. Therefore, in order to perform multiple gene inactivation, it is necessary to delete marker genes such as drug resistance genes from the genome each time the gene is inactivated.
- the present inventors used a system consisting of the FRT sequence and a yeast-derived F1p recombinase gene to delete the marker gene.
