Definitions
- the present invention is used to select a functional protein, peptide, or peptide analog by preparing a conjugate of mRNA and its translation product using a genotype-phenotype association technique (display method). It relates to an improved method.
- RNA display Various functional proteins and peptides have been created by using evolutionary molecular engineering techniques such as phage display (phage display) and mRNA display (mRNA display).
- mRNA display method (“In vitro virus,” Nemoto N, et al. FEBS Lett. 414, 405-408 (1997), International Publication WO 98/16636; or “RNA-peptide fusions,” Roberts, RW & Szostak, JW, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA., 94, 12297-12302 (1997), International Publication WO98 / 31700) is a useful method for able to produce peptide libraries with a high diversity of about 10 12-13 It is believed that there is.
- the mRNA display method has a major drawback. Creating a peptide library requires a number of laborious steps.
- the “one-to-one correspondence” between the amino acid sequence of the peptide and the base sequence of the mRNA is maintained by a covalent bond via a linker DNA.
- a covalent bond is formed between linker DNA and mRNA by enzymatic reaction or photocrosslinking, and (2) this is added to a cell-free translation system to form linker DNA. It is necessary to link the mRNA and the translation product via terminal puromycin.
- puromycin which is an analog of the tyrosyl tRNA 3 ′ end, is linked to the 3 ′ end of the mRNA via a linker DNA.
- this Pu-linker DNA / mRNA complex is introduced into a cell-free translation system and a peptide is synthesized from mRNA, puromycin attacks the C-terminus of the growing peptide chain as a substrate for the peptide transfer reaction in the ribosome, and the translation product The peptide molecule is linked to mRNA via puromycin.
- Non-patent Documents 1-4 As a method for binding linker DNA and mRNA, known are ligation reaction, photocrosslinking reaction, or hybridization using 2′-O-methyl RNA (Non-patent Documents 1-4). In this way, since the reaction of linking the linker to the mRNA is performed outside the cell-free translation system as an independent process, the mRNA display method performs a transcription reaction from the pool DNA, and purifies this to link the linker. It is necessary to perform a complicated operation of further purifying this and adding it to the translation system.
- the mRNA presentation method is a very complicated method requiring one to two days for one selection operation. Furthermore, in the creation of an actual peptide, it is necessary to repeat the selection operation about 5 to 10 times, and when a useful peptide cannot be obtained, it is necessary to change the selection conditions and repeat all the operations. Therefore, it takes a lot of time to select useful peptides using the mRNA display method, and development of a more rapid selection method is desired.

- the techniques described in the following literature are known: H. F. Kung, B. Redfield, B. V. Treadwell, B. Eskin, C. Spears and H. Weissbach (1977) “DNA-directed in vitro synthesis of beta-galactosidase. Studies with purified

Tan, M. N. L. Nalam et al., “Programming peptidomimetic syntheses by translating genetic codes designed de novo, “PNAS 2003, vol. 100, no. 11, 6353-6357; T. Kawakami and H. Murakami“ Genetically Encoded Libraries of Nonstandard Peptides, ”Journal of Nucleic Acids Volume 2012 (2012), Article ID 713
- the TRAP® system (including variations thereof) of the present invention is characterized in that it includes a linker having an acceptor of a translation product in addition to factors involved in the translation reaction. Due to this feature, binding of mRNA and linker, translation of mRNA on ribosome, and binding of mRNA and translation product via the linker all occur in a cell-free translation system. Therefore, the linker molecule in the TRAP system has a structure for complex formation with mRNA to occur in a cell-free translation system. On the other hand, in a known linker for mRNA presentation, the binding of mRNA and linker is due to a ligation reaction outside the translation system. The details of the linker structure used in the TRAP® system will be described later.
- the components of the reaction system are changed from the known cell-free translation system and optimized.
- An example of a modified cell-free translation system is a translation system that does not contain amino acids, ARS, MTF, termination factor, tRNA, and the like.
- Terminating factor is a proteinaceous factor that recognizes the termination codon on mRNA and releases the completed peptide chain from the ribosome. Due to the absence of termination factors, translation can be paused rather than terminated. Terminating factors, also called peptide chain dissociation factors, are classified into two classes, called class I and class II. Class I dissociation factors are thought to promote peptide chain dissociation by recognizing a stop codon and activating the peptide chain transfer reaction center of the ribosome. In Escherichia coli, two types of class I dissociation factors named RF1RF and RF2 are known.
- RF1 recognizes UAA and UAG among termination codons
- RF-2 recognizes UAA and UGA.
- Class II dissociation factors are thought to promote the removal of class I dissociation factors that remain on the mRNA ⁇ in the ribosome after the peptide chain dissociation reaction by class I dissociation factors.
- An example of a translation system that can be used in the TRAP system is one that lacks a class I dissociation factor. For systems utilizing E. coli ribosomes, both RF1 and RF2, or either class I dissociation factor can be lacking.
- factors necessary for translation may further include EF-P.
- EF-P is a bacterial elongation factor P, a protein that is highly conserved across species. EF-P binds to ribosomes, optimizes interaction with tRNA and dissociation factors, and promotes translation. The binding site of EF-P on the ribosome is located between the P and E sites. The N-terminal domain of EF-P interacts with the acceptor stem of tRNA bound to the P site, promotes peptide bond formation, and is thought to stabilize peptidyl tRNA at the catalytic center of ribosomal peptidyltransferase. Yes.
- EF-P may be a modified EF-P protein, and the modification preferably improves the affinity of EF-P for ribosomes.
- the modification of EF-P can be in the form of a post-translational modification (eg on a lysine residue).
- the TRAP® system can be a system given only limited amino acids.
- the codon of the proteinaceous amino acid that is not added corresponds to the anticodon of tRNA acylated with the special amino acid, so that the peptide containing the special amino acid is inherited from the mRNA.
- tRNA acylated with any amino acid regardless of whether it is a proteinaceous amino acid.
- the tRNA acylated with any amino acid outside the system can be an orthogonal tRNA that is orthogonal to the ARS present in the translation system.
- Orthogonal tRNA is not recognized by naturally-occurring ARS (for example, ARS protein enzyme derived from E. coli) inherent in the translation system, so that it is not aminoacylated in the translation system, but peptide synthesis on the ribosome In the reaction, it is a tRNA that can efficiently express a designated amino acid by pairing with a codon of mRNA.
- the orthogonal tRNA for example, a natural suppressor tRNA derived from a different species or an artificially constructed tRNA is used.
- the acylated tRNA can be replaced by adding tRNA, ARS and its substrate to the reaction solution.
- the TRAP system may include 20 types of ARS.
- the TRAP® system When performing transcription from template DNA, the TRAP® system includes factors necessary for performing transcription from template DNA.
- factors necessary for transcription is a suitable DNA-dependent RNA synthetase or transcriptase and its substrate, such as T7 RNA polymerase, T3 RNA polymerase, SP6 RNA polymerase.
- Each DNA of the template DNA library contains a promoter sequence corresponding to the transcriptase in the reaction system, and mRNA is transcribed.
- Factors necessary for performing transcription further include a reducing agent such as nucleoside triphosphate (NTP), divalent magnesium ion, and DTT.
- NTP nucleoside triphosphate
- polyamines such as spermidine, Triton® X-100, which is a nonionic surfactant, and the like may be added as reagents that aid in stabilization and activation of the polymerase.
- the present invention provides an improved method used in selecting functional proteins, peptides, and peptide analogs from a random DNA pool that is a template for a translation product, the method comprising a TRAP system, A round consisting of four steps of reverse transcription (RT), selection (selection), and PCR is repeated.
- the translation product / linker / mRNA complex (display library) is automatically formed in the reaction system by adding the template DNA library to the TRAP IV system.
- TRAP system by devising factors necessary for transcription, DNA amplified by the previous round of PCR can be added as it is as a template DNA library without being purified. This eliminates the need for purification of the template DNA library required in the conventional mRNA display method, and speeds up the stage of generating the mRNA library from the template DNA library.
- a factor necessary for transcription existing in the TRAP system promotes transcription from DNA to mRNA.
- the factors necessary for transcription are preferably present in such an amount that an mRNA library can be rapidly generated from a template DNA library.
- the factor required for transcription may contain 0.1 ⁇ M or more of transcriptase. It is also possible to increase the yield of translation product / linker / mRNA complex by increasing the concentration of the transcriptase.
- the transcriptase is about 0.2 ⁇ M or more, 0.3 ⁇ M or more, 0.4 ⁇ M or more, or 0.5 ⁇ M or more, 0.6 ⁇ M or more, 0.7 ⁇ M or more, 0.8 ⁇ M or more, or 0.9 ⁇ M or more may be contained.
- T7 RNA polymerase for example, 0.05 ⁇ M to 20 ⁇ M, preferably 0.1 ⁇ M to 20 ⁇ M, alternatively 0.2 ⁇ M to 10 ⁇ M, more preferably about 0.5 ⁇ M to about 5 ⁇ M, even more preferably about 0.8 to about 1.2 ⁇ M, Particularly preferably, it can contain about 0.9 ⁇ M to about 1.1 ⁇ M, or about 1.0 ⁇ M.
- the cell-free translation system (TRAP system) of the present invention is a reaction system containing a linker, and is capable of forming a complex between the linker and mRNA. Occurs in the reaction system.
- a template DNA library is transcribed into mRNA.
- the mRNA is captured by a linker (shown as Puromycin-DNA linker in the figure) by hybridization.
- a GC-rich sequence complementary to the linker DNA is placed in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the mRNA, and after annealing these base sequences, the linker DNA molecule and the mRNA molecule A stable duplex is formed between them.
- the ribosome moves along the mRNA chain from the start codon to the end of the open reading frame (ORF) and stops just before the linker / mRNA duplex site.
- the peptide acceptor on the linker attacks the nascent polypeptide chain (specifically, the junction between the peptide and tRNA in the peptidyl tRNA).
- An mRNA complex is formed.
- the peptide-linker / mRNA complex thus formed is stably maintained even after the peptide chain is dissociated from the ribosome.
- FIG. 1b shows how the linker available in the TRAP system is complexed with the mRNA random pool.
- the structure in which the DNA base sequence portion of the linker is annealed to the 3'-UTR of mRNA to form a 21 base pair DNA / RNA duplex is depicted.
- the base sequence and UAG codon corresponding to the cysteine residue and spacer are arranged downstream of the (NNK) 12 random sequence in the mRNA
- the 21-base GC-rich sequence including the last G is the sequence for annealing with the Pu-linker.
- N is a ribonucleotide of either A, U, C or G
- K is a ribonucleotide of either U or G.
- An13 in FIG. 1c shows the structure of the Pu-linker / mRNA complex formed by 13 base pair duplex formation.
- Lic in FIG. 1c is an example of a linker / mRNA linking structure using a linker of a known mRNA display method. This is a comparative example to the present invention, and the 3 ′ end of mRNA is ligated to 5 of the Pu-linker. It is covalently bonded to the terminus.
- the end codon UAG is located at the end of the mRNA open reading frame.
- the UAG codon is an empty codon (blank). By placing this UAG codon, the UAG codon is placed before the linker / mRNA duplex site at the time of translation termination. The action of stopping the ribosome is enhanced.
- the double-stranded site formed by hydrogen bonding is dissociated relatively easily when it comes into contact with a ribosome having RNA helicase (double-strand cleavage enzyme) activity.
- stopping the ribosome on mRNA by an empty codon is considered to have the following two significances: (1) Stabilizing the linker-mRNA binding and the mRNA of the peptide-linker / mRNA complex Maintaining the correct one-to-one correspondence between the translation product and the template nucleic acid by preventing the peptide-linker moiety from dissociating from and recombining with another mRNA; Increase the efficiency of peptide-linker / mRNA complex formation by providing a delay in attacking the peptide chain.
- a codon with low translation efficiency or an untranslated codon can be introduced into the sequence of the template nucleic acid.
- the location of codons with low translation efficiency or empty codons can be preferably in the sequence where the linker anneals to mRNA (3′-UTR annealing sequence) or within 20 bases upstream thereof.
- a vacant codon or a codon having low translation efficiency can be introduced at the end point of the ORF.
- Vacant codons are codons that are not translated. Unoccupied codons can be created from cell-free translation systems by removing amino acids, aminoacyl synthases, or proteinaceous factors such as tRNA or termination factors. For example, by removing a specific proteinous amino acid and ARS corresponding to the amino acid, a codon in which the amino acid is defined in the genetic code table can be made “empty (blank)”.
- Minor codons are codons with a low usage frequency (codon usage), and differ depending on the species. Such minor codons can be examined in public databases such as http://www.kazusa.or.jp/codon/. In the present invention, an appropriate minor codon suitable for the translation system to be used can be selected and used. Many codons with low usage frequency have been clarified from studies of codon usage with genes expressed in E. coli. Examples of such codons include AGA / AGG / CGA (Arg), AUA (Ile), CUA (Leu) GGA (Gly), CGG (Arg), and CCC (Pro) codons (Ikemura, T., (1981) J. Mol. Biol. 146, 1-21; Dong, H. (et Jal., (1996) J. Mol. Biol. 260, 649-663).
- empty codons and minor codons are not necessarily required for the formation of peptide-linker / mRNA complexes.
- the linker links the mRNA and its translation product by binding to the 3 ′ end of the mRNA at one end and the C-terminal side of the peptide at the other end.
- the function of such a linker itself is the same whether it is a TRAP system or a linker / mRNA conjugate is added to a cell-free translation system by a conventional mRNA display method.

- the linker and each mRNA do not undergo a covalent bond by hybridization (ie, hydrogen bonding) based on base pairing between the 5 ′ end of the nucleobase portion of the linker and the 3 ′ end of the mRNA molecule.
- hybridization ie, hydrogen bonding
- the 5 ′ end side of the linker and the 3 ′ end vicinity sequence of the mRNA are sequences that can be linked to each other by base pair formation over several bases to several tens of bases.
- the sequences that can bind by base pairing are not limited to those that perfectly pair (that is, 100% complementary), and the presence of unpaired bases is allowed to the extent that does not hinder the function.
- the complementarity of the sequence on the other side is preferably 50% or more, but the downstream sequence may not have any base to be paired.
- linker / mRNA duplex site a site where the base sequence of the linker and the 3′-UTR annealing sequence of the mRNA molecule form a duplex by hybridization is referred to as a linker / mRNA duplex site.
- the mRNA and linker are linked via a covalent bond after annealing.

- the structure of a base capable of such a cross-linking reaction is known.
- the other end of the linker has a structure capable of binding to the translation product.
- this part is referred to as a “peptide acceptor” for convenience, and the translation product is referred to as “peptide” or It should be noted that the translation product actually synthesized on the ribosome includes polymers other than those due to typical peptide bonds, although sometimes referred to as a “peptide chain”.
- a peptide acceptor means a molecule having a structure capable of receiving a C-terminus of a growing peptide (peptidyl tRNA) by a peptide transfer reaction in a ribosome and covalently binding to the peptide.
- peptide transfer reaction a reaction in which a peptide acceptor is a peptide transfer reaction is performed.
- Many molecules that perform such a function are known, and any peptide acceptor can be used in the present invention.
- peptide acceptors include nucleophilic compounds such as aminoacyl RNAs, aminoacyl RNA analogs, amino acids, amino acid analogs, puromycins, and puromycin analogs that can bind to translation products, but are not limited to these examples.
- a bond between a typical peptide acceptor and the peptide C-terminus is incorporated into the A-site by an ester bond at the C-terminal of the peptide attached to the peptidyl tRNA at the P-site, similar to the normal peptide transfer reaction that occurs on the ribosome. This is caused by the proximity of the amino group of the peptide acceptor. Therefore, the covalent bond formed between the peptide chain C-terminal is typically an amide bond. Similar to known mRNA display methods, a specific example of a peptide acceptor is puromycin (Pu).
- nucleophile In addition to amino groups, compounds having various nucleophilic functional groups such as hydroxyl groups and thiol groups can also be used to form covalent bonds with translation products. In the present specification, any compound that functions as a peptide acceptor at the linker end is collectively referred to as a “nucleophile”.
- the portions other than both ends of the linker are the same as the structure of the linker used in the known mRNA display method.
- oligonucleotides such as single-stranded or double-stranded DNA and RNA
- polyalkylenes such as polyethylene
- polyalkylene glycols such as polyethylene glycol
- linear substances such as polystyrene and polysaccharides, or combinations thereof are appropriately selected.
- Non-limiting specific examples of the linker that can be used in the present invention include a portion that forms a complex with mRNA is a single-stranded DNA, and a polyethylene glycol between the 3'-terminal dCdC-Pu-3 'sequence.

- Such sequences include promoter sequences corresponding to the RNA polymerase used.
- an appropriate sequence upstream of the start codon is required.
- sequences include, for example, SD sequences when using E. coli-derived ribosomes.
- the start codon is a codon that specifies the start of translation, and encodes the start amino acid that becomes the N-terminus of the translation product on the mRNA. Since the initiation codon on mRNA is generally AUG, which is a methionine codon, the initiation tRNA has an anticodon corresponding to methionine, and the initiation tRNA carries methionine (formylmethionine in prokaryotes). However, reprogramming of the genetic code can be used to initiate translation by binding any amino acid other than methionine to the start tRNA. Furthermore, by changing the anticodon sequence of the start tRNA, sequences other than AUG can be used as the start codon.
- a spacer sequence consisting of a peptide for flexibility is linked to the C-terminal side of a portion encoding a random amino acid sequence for a peptide library, and immediately after that a stop codon or a vacant codon. Or it is desirable that minor codons come.
- the amino acid sequence Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Ser and the empty codon UAG are encoded immediately after cysteine.
- the term “immediately after the spacer sequence” does not mean that it must be in contact with the spacer sequence, and a non-coding sequence or other linear structure may be further included downstream of the spacer sequence.
- the location of the empty codon or minor codon can be in the 3′-UTR annealing sequence of the mRNA or upstream of it.
- the sense codon can be made a vacant codon by removing a specific proteinaceous amino acid and / or ARS corresponding to the amino acid.
- the random sequence is composed of codon repeats consisting of an arbitrary base sequence.
- NNU codon or NNK codon ⁇ N is any ribonucleotide of A, U, C or G, and K is either U or G which is a ribonucleotide of
- a stop codon defined by UAA, UAG, and UGA does not appear in a random region, a highly accurate library can be constructed.
- the codon not only a normal three-base (triplet) codon but also a four-base codon can be used.
- a sequence (3′-UTR annealing sequence) capable of binding to the linker by base pairing is arranged.
- a DNA library is first prepared, an RNA library is obtained as an in vitro transcript, and a peptide library is obtained as an in vitro translation product. From this peptide library, one having a desired function or property is selected by some screening system. For example, if you want to obtain peptide molecules that bind to a specific protein, mix the magnetic beads with the target protein immobilized on the peptide library and collect the mixture of peptide molecules bound to the magnetic beads using a magnet. Can do. At this time, since the template mRNA is added to each peptide molecule like a tag, the mRNA is returned to DNA from the collected peptide-mRNA complex library with reverse transcriptase and amplified by PCR.
- a similar selection experiment is performed again.
- a reverse transcription reaction can be performed before selection for the purpose of making the nucleic acid portion into a double strand. By repeating this operation, clones having a desired phenotype are enriched in the library as the generation progresses.
- a nucleic acid library is prepared from the nucleic acid portion of the selected corresponding molecule by PCR and its base sequence is determined.
- the sequence information of the peptide aptamer that binds to the target substance is obtained by translating according to the genetic code using the base sequence.
- the target substance In order to separate the complex, which is an active species that binds to the target substance, from other complexes, it is convenient that the target substance be modified so that it can be recovered by binding to the solid phase.
- the target substance is modified with biotin and recovered using specific binding to a biotin-binding protein immobilized on magnetic beads.

- an active species presenting a translation product having a desired binding property is selected from a library of complexes of all translation products and mRNA (or cDNA) that can be synthesized in a template-dependent manner.
- the flow of the Rapid system taking as an example the application to a special peptide library containing a thioether cyclic peptide, is as follows. (Hereafter, Satoshi Yamaguchi, Takayuki Kato, Hiroaki Tsuji, “Drug ⁇ discovery of non-standard peptide with genetic code reprogramming” Drug Delivery System 26-6: 584-592, (Quoted from 2011)
- a library of NA-special peptide complexes can be constructed, after reverse-transcription of the mRNA site of this complex and mixing with a target protein immobilized on a solid support, non-specifically bound complexes or unbound The complex complex is washed away, and only the special peptide-mRNA-cDNA complex bound to the target protein is selected, the cDNA of the complex recovered from this is amplified by PCR, and then transcribed again to be converted into an mRNA library. , Ligation, translation synthesis, etc.
- peptides that bind to the target protein can be concentrated in the library, and finally the cDNA of the peptide complex obtained is collected and analyzed for its base sequence This makes it possible to analyze the amino acid sequence of a specific special peptide that binds to the target protein.
- the difference between the selection system using the Rapid system that uses the conventional mRNA display method and the transcription-linker binding-translation coupling reaction system (TRAP system) of the present invention is mainly the following two points: (1 The former uses a linker that binds to mRNA by ligation, while the latter uses a linker that captures mRNA by annealing; (2) Uses a transcription-translation reaction system (TRAP system) containing such a linker. Thus, only by adding the cDNA library to the reaction system, a translation product / linker / mRNA complex is automatically formed.
- FIG. 1a is a schematic diagram of a selection operation realized by the present invention.
- a template DNA library (Template DNA) is prepared and added to the TRAP system to form a translation product / linker / mRNA complex library (Transcription ⁇ ⁇ Association ⁇ Translation ⁇ Conjugation).

Therefore, the selection operation using the TRAP system) includes (1) translation product / linker / mRNA complex formation, (2) reverse transcription (RT), (3) selection (4), and (4) PCR 4 A series of operations consisting of processes is defined as one round, and this is repeated a plurality of times. That is, the process can proceed to the process 1 immediately after the process 4.
- the selection operation using the conventional mRNA display method the cDNA after PCR is purified, and then the transcription reaction is performed. Then, this is purified, the linker is ligated, and this is further purified and translated. An additional step of adding to the system is required.
- a linker bond-translation coupling system (TRAP system) can also be used.
- RNA is transcribed separately from cDNA in each round, and the transcription reaction solution is directly added to a translation reaction system containing a linker without purification. This method appears to be useful when using mRNA that is difficult to transcribe.
- the selection operation which takes 1 to 2 days by the conventional mRNA presentation method is completed in about 3 hours. That is, a series of operations (one round) can be completed within 3 hours. It is also easy to do 2 rounds in a day. In the case of a gene that is easily transcribed, one round can be completed within 2.5 hours.
- the above selection-amplification operation can also be automated (automated) by machine operation.
- the translation product can be modified by post-translational modification after complex formation.
- Post-translational modification is a reaction that changes the chemical structure of a protein synthesized based on a gene sequence, and examples thereof include phosphorylation, sugar chain addition, lipid addition, methylation, and acetylation. Modifications with polypeptides such as ubiquitin and SUMO are also included in post-translational modifications.
- Target substance can be any compound that may be useful to interact with a translation product.
- the target substance may be a protein, nucleic acid, carbohydrate, lipid, or any other compound.

- Serum albumin is the most abundant protein in serum and has many actions. For example, it acts as a carrier protein for many hydrophobic molecules such as fatty acids and drugs, or as an energy source for tumor cells (ElenaElNeumann, mannEva Frei, Dorothee Funk et al., Expert Opin. Drug Deliv. 7 (8), 915 (2010)). Furthermore, albumin degradation is inhibited by the Fc receptor-mediated recycling system, which increases its half-life in serum (Jan Terje Andersen and Inger Sandlie, Drug Metab. Pharmacokinet. 24 (4), 318 (2009)). Thus, an agent conjugated to an albumin binding molecule can be efficiently delivered to tumor cells and effective for a long time.
- albumin-binding biomolecules such as bacterial protein domains and antibodies
- Such an albumin-binding molecule is considered to be effective in extending the blood half-life of the drug.
- Peptide, protein, peptide analog, special peptide Peptide is a general term for biopolymer compounds formed by connecting various amino acids by amide bonds (peptide bonds).
- a relatively short chain having 50 amino acid residues or less in the chain is called a peptide, and a longer chain is often called a protein or polypeptide. Those having 30 residues or less are sometimes called short-chain peptides.
- the terms short peptide, peptide, protein, and polypeptide are not particularly distinguished and are used as terms that can be read each other.
- Normal (natural) peptides are composed of 20 kinds of proteinaceous amino acids.
- a peptide containing a partial structure that is not usually present in a peptide is called a special peptide (abnormal peptide), a non-natural peptide, a peptidomimetic, a peptide analog, or the like.
- antibiotics such as vancomycin and cyclosporin A used as an immunosuppressant are known.
- any molecule containing amino acids other than 20 kinds of proteinous amino acids and hydroxy acids, which are translationally synthesized by ribosomes is called a special peptide, a non-natural peptide or a peptide analog.
- Proteinaceous amino ⁇ br/> proteinaceous amino acids or naturally occurring amino acids are typically used in translation ⁇ - amino acid (or substituted ⁇ - amino acids), alanine (Ala), valine (Val) , Leucine (Leu), isoleucine (Ile), proline (Pro), tryptophan (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe), methionine (Met), glycine (Gly), serine (Ser), threonine (Thr), tyrosine (Tyr) Cysteine (Cys), glutamine (Gln), asparagine (Asn), lysine (Lys), arginine (Arg), histidine (His), aspartic acid (Asp), and glutamic acid (Glu).
- amino acids include both proteinaceous amino acids and special amino acids
- peptides include special peptides (or non-natural peptides or peptide analogs).
- “Special amino acid” refers to all amino acids having a structure different from that of 20 proteinic amino acids used in natural translation, and includes some hydroxy acids. In other words, some non-protein amino acids, artificial amino acids, D-form amino acids, N-methyl amino acids, N-acyl amino acids, ⁇ (beta) -amino acids, in which part of the side chain structure of protein amino acids has been chemically modified or modified, ⁇ (gamma) -amino acid, ⁇ (delta) -amino acid, derivatives having a structure in which an amino group or a carboxyl group on the amino acid skeleton is substituted are all included.
- Peptides into which special amino acids have been introduced, or the above-mentioned “special peptides”, include polymers having these various special amino acids as constituent elements.

- a cyclic peptide cyclized with a thioether bond obtained by translating a peptide sequence in which a special amino acid having a chloroacetyl group at the N-terminus and a cysteine at the C-terminus is located in the peptide chain is an example.
- it can be cyclized with various structures according to various combinations of functional groups capable of bond formation.
- Translation generally refers to reading mRNA information consisting of a base sequence and converting it into an amino acid sequence on a ribosome, which is substantially synonymous with protein (peptide) biosynthesis. Since the translation reaction is a reaction for synthesizing a peptide using a nucleic acid as a template, peptides having various sequences can be synthesized by changing the sequence of the cDNA or mRNA used as the template. Translation products are peptides (including peptides, proteins, peptide analogs, and special peptides) synthesized by ribosomes.
- Cell-free translation is a technique for artificially performing a translation reaction in a test tube and is also called in-vitro protein synthesis.

- Annealing and hybridization Annealing generally means that a denatured single-stranded DNA becomes a double-stranded molecule through complementary base pairing under appropriate conditions.
- Complementary base pairing also referred to as hybridization or complementary base pairing, is the pairing of complementary combinations of nucleobases by hydrogen bonding.
- Hybridization means that single-stranded DNA or RNA forms a hybrid (hybrid double-stranded nucleic acid molecule) by complementary base pairing.
- the linker base sequence and the complementary sequence portion of mRNA form a double strand by annealing.
- Complementary base pairing is the natural binding of a polynucleotide (RNA or DNA, or other linear molecule with a nucleobase in the side chain) under salt and temperature tolerance conditions, and is a single strand of two types. Intermolecular complementarity may be “partial”, in which case only some of the bases of the nucleic acid sequence bind and the ratio of complementary base pairs can be indicated numerically. When perfect complementarity exists between two single stranded molecules, the complementarity is “perfect” (100%). The degree of complementarity significantly affects the efficiency and intensity of hybridization. Various methods known to those skilled in the art can be used to determine whether two nucleic acid molecules hybridize.
- nucleic acid base combinations that form complementary base pairs are adenine (A) and thymine (T) or uracil (U), and guanine (G) and cytosine (C).
- Thymine (T) and uracil (U) can be used interchangeably depending on the respective type of polynucleotide (DNA or RNA).
- non-Watson-Crick base pairs such as GU also exist as thermodynamically stable base pairs, such combinations may also be complementary.

- T7-cDNA / (T7-cDNA + random cDNA) only changed from 34% to 40% (FIG. 2b, lane). 6 and 7).
- This result indicates that more than half of the peptide-Pu-linker was dissociated from the mRNA during either the translation reaction, RT, or T7 peptide pull-down process.
- the Pu-linker DNA / mRNA duplex was stable during the RT and T7 peptide pulldown process, so dissociation was expected to occur during the translation reaction.

- This result suggests that the main cause of the dissociation of T7-peptide-Pu-linker from T7-mRNA is ribosomal helicase activity.
- the T7-peptide-Pu-linker / mRNA complex is stabilized by extending the length of the Pu-linker DNA / mRNA duplex and inserting a blank codon immediately before the double-stranded site. I found out that

After the RT-PCR reaction, 5% (v / v) of a crude solution containing random-DNA was added, and a transcription / translation reaction (1 ⁇ L) was performed at 37 ° C. for 20 minutes. The amount of mRNA at each time point is shown in FIG.

- T7-mRNA was concentrated 3700 times (FIG. 4, lanes 4 and 5), and 4900 times (FIG. 4, lanes 6 and 7) in the system using the An21 type linker. From this result, translation system using mRNA template and adding linker that captures by annealing selects specific peptide DNA (T7-DNA) comparable to or higher than conventional mRNA display method. It was revealed that it can be concentrated.
- T7-DNA and random-DNA were added to the transcription / translation reaction system (TRAP system) at a ratio of 1: 3000. From the results of the T7 peptide pull-down assay, it was found that T7-DNA was concentrated 2000 times (FIG. 4, lanes 8 and 9).

(X は ClAB-L-Pheを示す)
これらの環状ペプチドも、本発明の範囲に含まれる。
これまでの説明および後述の実施例の内容に関し、分子生物学的手法の詳細は、例えば、Sambrook, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 3rd edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2001; Golemis, Protein-Protein Interactions: A Molecular Cloning Manual, 2nd edition, Cold Spring Laboratory Press, 2005などを参照されたい。
ペプチドとは、様々なアミノ酸がアミド結合(ペプチド結合)によって連結してできた生体高分子化合物の総称である。一般に、鎖中が50アミノ酸残基以下の比較的短いものをペプチドと呼び、それ以上の長さを持つものはタンパク質あるいはポリペプチドと呼ばれることが多い。30残基以下のものは短鎖ペプチドと呼ばれることもある。本明細書では、短鎖ペプチド、ペプチド、タンパク質、及びポリペプチドの用語を特に区別せず、相互に読み替えることができる語として用いる。
タンパク質性アミノ酸または天然アミノ酸とは、通常の翻訳で使用されるα-アミノカルボン酸(または置換型α-アミノカルボン酸)である、アラニン(Ala)、バリン(Val)、ロイシン(Leu)、イソロイシン(Ile)、プロリン(Pro)、トリプトファン(Trp)、フェニルアラニン(Phe)、メチオニン(Met)、グリシン(Gly)、セリン(Ser)、トレオニン(Thr)、チロシン(Tyr)、システイン(Cys)、グルタミン(Gln)、アスパラギン(Asn)、リジン(Lys)、アルギニン(Arg)、ヒスチジン(His)、アスパラギン酸(Asp)、及びグルタミン酸(Glu)の20種類のアミノ酸を指す。
本明細書においてアミノ酸にはタンパク質性アミノ酸と特殊アミノ酸の両方が含まれ、ペプチドには特殊ペプチド(または非天然ペプチドまたはペプチドアナログ)も含まれる。
翻訳とは、一般的には塩基配列からなるmRNAの情報を読み取ってリボソーム上でアミノ酸配列に変換することをいい、実質的にはタンパク質(ペプチド)生合成と同義である。翻訳反応は核酸を鋳型としてペプチドを合成する反応であるため、鋳型となるcDNAまたはmRNAの配列を変えることで様々な配列を持つペプチドを合成できる。翻訳産物は、リボソームにより合成されるペプチド(ペプチド、タンパク質、ペプチドアナログ、特殊ペプチドを含む)である。
アニーリングとは、一般的には、変性して1本鎖になったDNAが適当な条件下で相補的塩基対形成により二本鎖分子になることである。本明細書では、DNAに限らず、核酸塩基を側鎖に持つ構造の1本鎖が相補的塩基対同士で会合して二本鎖となることをいう。相補的塩基対形成は、ハイブリダイゼーションまたは相補的塩基対合ともいい、相補的な組み合わせの核酸塩基が水素結合により対合することである。ハイブリダイゼーションは1本鎖DNAまたはRNAが相補的塩基対形成によってハイブリッド(雑種二本鎖核酸分子)を形成することをいう。本明細書では、リンカー塩基配列とmRNAの相補的配列部分がアニーリングにより二本鎖を形成する。相補的塩基対合は、塩と温度の許容条件下でのポリヌクレオチド(RNAまたはDNA、または核酸塩基を側鎖に持つ他の直鎖分子)の自然な結合であり、2種の一本鎖分子間での相補性は、「部分的」であってもよく、その場合、核酸配列のうちのいくつかの塩基のみが結合し、相補的塩基対の比率を数値で示すことができる。2種の一本鎖分子間に完全な相補性が存在する場合、その相補性は「完全」(100%)である。相補性の度合いは、ハイブリダイゼーションの効率と強度に有意な影響を及ぼす。2種の核酸分子がハイブリダイズするか否かを決定するためには、当業者に周知の様々な方法を利用することができる。典型的には、相補的塩基対となる核酸の塩基の組合わせは、アデニン(A)とチミン(T)またはウラシル(U)、及び、グアニン(G)とシトシン(C)である。チミン(T)とウラシル(U)は、ポリヌクレオチドのそれぞれの型(DNAあるいはRNA)により、交換可能に使用され得る。さらに、G-Uなどのいわゆる非ワトソン-クリック塩基対も熱力学的に安定な塩基対として存在するので、そのような組合せも相補的という場合がある。
ライブラリーは、複数の分子(例えば、複数の核酸、翻訳産物、翻訳産物/リンカー/mRNA複合体、翻訳産物/リンカー/mRNA-cDNA複合体分子)の集団を意味する。本発明におけるライブラリーは、所望の機能や性質を持つペプチド、タンパク質、ペプチドアナログを創製することを目的として、可能性のある遺伝子を大規模に準備し、その中から狙った表現型を有するものを選択するためのものであるから、多数の候補分子を含むライブラリーを用いることが好ましい。ライブラリーの多様性は、例えば1011個、典型的には1012~1013個、好ましくは1015個の異なる遺伝子配列であることができる。
選択(セレクション)とは、ある分子をライブラリー中の他の分子から実質的に分離することを意味する。進化分子工学では、遺伝子ライブラリーの翻訳産物としてペプチドライブラリー(ペプチドと核酸が対応付けされた分子の集団)を得て、このペプチドライブラリーから、所望の機能や性質を持つものを適切なスクリーニング系で選択する。選択された各ペプチド分子には、その遺伝子である核酸がタグのように付加されている。選択された対応付け分子の核酸部分のPCR増幅により核酸ライブラリーを調製して、狙った表現型を有するクローンが多く含まれるバイアスのかかったライブラリーを得た後に、再度同じような選択実験を行う。この選択-増幅操作を繰返すことで、世代の経過とともに所望の表現型を有する分子がライブラリー中で濃縮(富化:enrich)されていく。
本実施例の方法では、リンカーとmRNAの結合は非共有結合によるものである。ペプチド-リンカー/mRNA複合体の形成とペプチドアプタマー選択過程の間に、このリンカーを介するペプチドとmRNAの結合が解離して他の無関係なmRNAと入れ替わってしまわないか確認するため、T7-ペプチドプルダウンアッセイを実施した。
ランダムライブラリーからのペプチド選択では、ペプチドとmRNAが連結した複合体の形成効率がライブラリーの多様性を決定する。複合体形成の効率を評価するために、ビオチン化Phe(図3a)が結合した開始tRNAfMet CAUを、Metを除いた翻訳系に加えて、N末端がビオチン標識されたペプチドを合成した(図3b)。これにより、ストレプトアビジンを固定化したビーズ(SA-bead)を用いて、ビオチン化ペプチドを提示するmRNAのみを選択的に回収できる。
An21タイプのリンカーを使用する系と従来のmRNA提示法(Li13タイプのリンカー)で、上述のT7ペプチドプルダウンアッセイを行って、T7-DNAの濃縮効率を比較した。
Flexible Display法を使用して、環状ペプチドのライブラリーから、ヒト血清由来アルブミン(HSA)に結合するペプチアプタマーの選択をおこなった。
