Urate Oxidase
Gout is the most common inflammatory joint disease found in people over age 40 (Roubenoff 1990). Painful gouty arthritis occurs when increased uric acid (hyperacidemia) in the blood causes the transient formation of microscopic crystals of monosodium urate monohydrate in the joint. Over time, chronic uric acid hyperemia also leads to destructive crystalline urate deposits (gout ash) in joints, soft tissues, and other tissues (Hershfield 1996). Uric acid has limited solubility in urine and, if overdose (hyperaciduria), causes kidney stone (urolithiasis). In malignant patients, especially in the case of leukemias and lymphomas, pronounced uric acid hyperemia and hyperuricuria (due to enhanced tumor cell replacement and destruction during chemotherapy) pose a serious risk of acute obstructive kidney disorder. (Sanberg et al. 1956; Gold and Fritz 1957; Cohen et al. 1980; Jones et al. 1990). Severe uric acid hyperemia and gout are accompanied by kidney abnormalities for a variety of causes, including cyclosporine treatment to inhibit tissue allograft rejection (West et al. 1987; Venkataseshan et al. 1990; Ahn et al. 1992; Delaney et al. 1992; George. And Mandell 1995).
Hyperuricemia is caused by the overproduction and under-release of urate (Hershfield and Seegmiller 1976; Kelley et al. 1989; Becker and Roessler 1995). If uric acid hyperemia is mild, it can be controlled by food, but uric acid urinary agents that promote the release of uric acid (inefficient if the function of the kidney is impaired, if the symptoms are obvious and have serious clinical consequences). Or medication such as xanthine oxidase inhibitor allopurinol, which inhibits urate formation. Allopurinol is used to treat patients with nodular gout, kidney failure, leukemia and certain genetic disorders. Treatment for uric acid hyperemia is generally effective. However, in patients with malformed nodule gout, all conventional treatments are ineffective (Becker 1988; Fam 1990; Rosenthal and Ryan 1995). Moreover, ˜2% of patients treated with allopurinol develop allergic reactions and ˜0.4% develop severe hypersensitivity (Singer and Wallace 1986; Arellano and Sacristan 1993). The above life-threatening symptoms can cause acute renal failure, liver failure and severe skin damage (addictive epidermal lysis, deprived dermatitis, polymorphic erythema, Stevens Johnson syndrome). Allopurinol also inhibits the metabolism of azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine, medications used to treat leukemia and inhibit tissue allograft rejection, resulting in significant uric acid hyperemia, which causes severe gout Or threaten kidney function.
Ultimately, uric acid hyperemia is caused by mutations and inactivation of human genes for urate oxidase (ureate degrading enzymes) during the evolutionary process (Wu et al. 1989; Wu et al. 1992). Active urate degrading enzymes in hepatic peroxysomes in most primates and other mammals, except humans, convert urate to allantoin (+ CO 2 and H 2 O 2 ), which allotons are 80-100 higher than uric acid. It is twice as soluble and processed more efficiently by the kidneys. The parenteral uric acid degrading enzyme (Uricozyme ® , Clin-Midy, Paris) from Aspergillus flavus is used to treat severe uric acid hyperemia associated with leukemia chemotherapy for more than 20 years in France and Italy. (London and Hudson 1957; Kissel et al. 1968; Brogard et al. 1972; Kissel et al. 1972; Potaux et al. 1975; Zittoun et al. 1976; Brogard et al. 1978; Masera et al. 1982) and used in recent clinical trials of leukemia patients in the United States (Pui Et al. 1997). Uricase is a faster onset of action than allopurinol (Masera et al. 1982; Pui et al. 1997). In patients with gout, the infusion of uric acid enzymes suppresses acute attacks and reduces the size of gout (Kissel et al. 1968; Potaux et al. 1975; Brogard et al. 1978).
Although daily injection of A. flavus urate dehydrogenase is an effective method of treating acute uric acid hyperemia during the short term of chemotherapy, there are serious drawbacks in treating gout of recurrence or nodule of nodules. In addition, the efficacy of A. flavus urease is dramatically reduced in patients producing anti-ureta lyase enzymes (Kissel et al. 1968; Brogard et al. 1978; Escudier et al. 1984; Mourad et al. 1984; Sibony et al. 1984). Serious allergic reactions occur, including anaphylaxis (Donadio et al. 1981; Montagnac and Schillinger 1990; Pui et al. 1997). Long-term acting and reduced immunogenicity, uric acidase is urgently needed for chronic treatment.
One approach to sequestering adventitious enzymes from proteases and the immune system involves a method of covalently binding monomethoxypolyethylene glycol (PEG), an inert, non-toxic polymer, to the surface of a protein (Harris and Zalipsky 1997). In the early days, the use of PEGs with Mr ˜1,000 to> 10,000 has been reported to extend the circulating life and reduce immunogenicity of many foreign proteins in animals (Abuchwski et al. 1977a; Abuchowski et al. 1977b; Davis et al. 1981a; Abuchowski et al. 1984; Davis et al. 1991). In 1990, bovine adenosine deaminase (ADA) (PEG-ADA, ADAGEN ® produced by Enzon), modified with PEG of Mr 5000, was first recognized by the US Food and Drug Administration for severe combined immunodeficiency due to ADA deficiency. PEGylation protein used for the treatment of (Hershfield et al. 1987). It has been shown in the past 12 years that during the long-term treatment with PEG-ADA, anti-ADA antibodies can be detected by sensitive ELISA in most patients, but no allergic or sensitive reactions occur; PEG-ADA was quickly eliminated in some patients producing anti-ADA antibodies, but this was usually transient (Chaffee et al. 1992; Hershfield 1997). It should be recognized that during treatment with PEG-ADA, it is common for immune function in patients with ADA deficiency to be normal (Hershfield 1995; Hershfield and Mitchell 1995). Therefore, immunogenicity appears to be more important when developing PEGylation enzymes for long-term treatment of patients with normal immune function.
Immunogenicity is associated with the induction of immune responses by injected antigen preparations (such as PEG-modified proteins or unmodified proteins), while antigenicity is known to those skilled in the art to indicate the reaction of antigens with existing antibodies. Overall, antigenicity and immunogenicity represent immune responses. In previous studies of PEG-ureatase, immune responses were analyzed in a variety of ways: in vitro reactions of PEG-urease with antibodies; Measurement of induced antibody synthesis; And increased removal rate after repeated injections.
PEGylation has been reported to reduce the immunogenicity and prolong cycle life of fungi and swine urate dehydrogenase in animals (Chen et al. 1981; Savoca et al. 1984; Tsuji et al. 1985; Veronese et al. 1997). PEG-modified Candida uratease rapidly degraded serum urate in five human volunteers of normal uric acid to undetectable levels (Davis et al. 1981b). PEGylated Arthrobacter produced by Enzon has been used in the treatment of patients with allopurinol-hypersensitive leukemia and renal failure and significant uric acid hyperemia (Chua et al. 1988; Greenberg and Hershfield 1989). Four intramuscular injections were administered over about 2 weeks. During this short period of time, uric acid hyperemia was controlled and no anti-ureatase antibody was detected by ELISA in the patient's plasma. No further use and clinical trials of the medicament have been made.
To date, for the stability and reliable use in long-term treatments, no development of uricase or PEG-ureatase with suitable long-term circulating life and sufficiently reduced immunogenicity has been made. It is an object of the present invention to provide improved forms of urate and PEGylated urateases that can meet the above needs. The present invention is a unique recombinant uric lyase in mammals, which is mutated in a way that improves the PEGylation ability to strongly mask immunogenic epitopes.

Doing. Preferably, the conjugate retains at least about 70% to about 90% of the uric acid degrading activity of the unmodified urate dehydrogenase protein, maintains enzymatic activity during storage, and maintains the mammalian plasma and / or at physiological temperature.

Preferably, the antibody to the amino terminal portion of the chimeric uricase enzyme should not recognize the amino terminal portion of the ubiquinate urate enzyme, and similarly the antibody to the carboxyl terminal portion of the chimeric uricase enzyme is the The carboxyl terminal portion of the degrading enzyme should not be recognized. More preferably, antibodies are provided that specifically bind to PBC or PKS but do not bind to native proteins such as swine and / or baboons.
In another embodiment of the invention, the invention is used in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition capable of reducing the amount of uric acid in body fluids, such as urine and / or serum or plasma, wherein the composition is a urease protein disclosed herein. Or at least one of the uricase enzyme conjugates and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient.

The method provides a mammal with a uric acid-lowering effective amount of a composition comprising a urate dehydrogenase protein or urate degrading enzyme conjugate and a diluent, carrier or excipient, preferably a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient. Administering. The mammal to be treated is preferably a human.
Said administration step may preferably be carried out by intravenous, subcutaneous, transdermal, intramuscular or intranasal injection. Elevated uric acid amounts may be in the blood or urine and may be associated with gout, gout, kidney failure, transplantation or malignant disease.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a method for isolating and purifying urate lyase from, for example, a urease solution containing, for example, cellular and subcellular fragments made from recombinant manufacturing processes. Preferably, the purification method utilizes a limited solubility of mammalian urate dehydrogenase (Conley et al. 1979) at low pH, which washes the crude recombinant extract at a pH of about 7 to about 8.5, mostly dissolved in a low pH range. Protein is removed, and then active uricase is dissolved in a buffer, preferably sodium carbonate buffer, at pH about 10-11, preferably about 10.2. The dissolved active uricase is then applied to an anion exchange column, such as a Q Sepharose column washed with a salt concentration gradient in buffer at pH about 8.5, and then sodium carbonate at pH about 10 to about 11, preferably about 10.2. Elution with a gradient of sodium chloride in the buffer yields purified uric acid enzyme. The enzyme may additionally be purified by gel filtration chromatography at pH about 10 to about 11. The enzyme can be further purified by reducing the pH to about 8.5 or less so as to selectively precipitate uricase but not to precipitate more soluble contaminants. After washing at low pH (7-8), the urease is solubilized at pH about 10.2. Uricase enzyme products can then be analyzed by methods known in the pharmaceutical arts, such as high performance liquid phase chromatography (HPLC), other chromatography methods, light scattering, centrifugation and / or gel electrophoresis.
The present invention provides urate lyase enzymes, which are useful intermediates for the preparation of improved urate lyase enzyme conjugates with water-soluble polymers, preferably poly (ethylene glycol) or poly (ethylene oxide) and urate lyase. Urinalytic enzymes herein include, unless otherwise indicated, natural tetramers as well as individual subunits.
Although humans do not produce active urate enzymes, urate enzyme transcripts are amplified from human liver RNA (Wu et al. 1992). It is theoretically possible for any human urate transcript to be translated; Even if the peptide product is not full length or unstable, the product can be processed by the antigen presenting cells and can serve to determine the immune response to foreign uric acid enzymes used in therapy. Theoretically, it is possible to reconstruct and express human urate dehydrogenase cDNA by eliminating two known nonsense mutations. However, after the introduction of the first nonsense mutation, in the absence of selection pressure, it is easy to accumulate nonsense mutations that are harmful to human genes for millions of years (Wu et al. 1989; Wu et al. 1992). It is very difficult to identify and “correct” all the variants that can achieve optimal enzyme activity and protein stability.
We found that there is a high homology (similarity) between the amino acid sequence of human uric acid enzyme inferred against pig uric acid enzyme (approximately 86%) and the amino acid sequence of BB uric acid enzyme (about 92%). 6-14, Example of similarity measurement, while there is <40% homology (similarity) between human and A. flavus uratease (Lee et al. 1988; Reddy et al. 1988; Wu et al. 1989; Legoux et al. 1992; Wu et al. 1992). The present invention provides chimeric urease proteins produced recombinantly from two different mammals, which proteins are designed to reduce immunoreactivity in humans compared to fungal and bacterial enzymes that are clearly involved. The use of urate dehydrogenase derivatives in mammals is expected to be more acceptable to patients and physicians.
Experiments have demonstrated that active PEGs used to prepare PEG-ADA and modify other proteins are bound through the primary amino group of the amino terminal residue (when the amino group is present and not blocked) and the epsilon-amino group of lysine. . The above strategy is useful because relaxed reaction conditions can be used and lysine charged with cation tends to be located on the surface of the protein. The desired effect of PEGylation may be due in part to the properties of the PEG polymer (eg, mass, branched or unbranched structure, etc.) as well as structural factors that determine the function and removal rate of the protein and PEG binding of the protein to the epitope. The latter of these reasons is important because it also depends on the relative number and distribution of sites. Strategies to improve PEGylation capacity to mask epitopes and reduce immunogenicity by way of semi-white introduction of new lysine residues for PEG addition have been studied (Hershfield et al. 1991). The strategy above employs mutagenesis to replace selected arginine codons with lysine codons, which substitutions maintain positive charges and have minimal impact on computer-predictive indicators of surface likelihood and antigenicity (when amino acid sequences are made) Only useful).
As an experimental test of the above strategy, recombinant E. coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase (ENEP) (Hershfield et al. 1991) was used. Substitution from Arg to Lys at three locations was introduced, the increased number of lysine per subunit was 14-17, and the catalytic activity was unchanged. Purified triple-variants retained full activity even after modifying ˜70% of the accessible NH 2 groups with excess disuccisinyl-PEG5000. It was found by titration of reactive amino groups before and after PEGylation that the triple variant can accommodate one more PEG per subunit than the wild type enzyme. PEGylation increased the cycle life of wild-type and variant EPNP enzymes in mice from ˜4 hours to> 6 days. After a series of weekly / weekly intraperitoneal injections, in all mice treated with two unmodified EPNPs and 10 of 16 mice injected with PEGylated wild-type EPNP, high concentrations and circulating lifespan of anti-EPNP antibodies were observed. A significant decrease in was observed. In contrast, only 2 of 12 mice treated with variant PEG-EPNP showed rapid clearance; Low concentrations of antibody in these mice were independent of circulating life. Thus, the strategy described above was successful in substantially reducing immunogenicity although only one of the three lysines was modified after treatment with active PEG.
Each of the baboon and porcine urate dehydrogenase subunits consists of 304 amino acid sequences, of which 29 (ie, 1 per about 10 residues) are lysine. Attempts to substitute Lys for 2 Arg in cloned cDNA for ubiquinate uratease, and Glu codon-lysed Lys at position 208, known as Lys in the human uratease gene, significantly reduced uricase activity. Resulting in the expressed variant protein of the baboon. After the mutation of arginine to lysine in the mammalian DNA sequence occurred, it became clear from the above experiment that the ability to maintain the activity of uratease was unpredictable.
Subsequently, it became evident that amino acid residue 291 in BB uricase was lysine and the residue in swine was arginine. The ApaI restriction site present in both cDNAs was used to construct chimeric urateases, where the first 225 amino acids in the chimeric protein were derived from porcine cDNA, and the 79 carboxyl ends were derived from baboon cDNA. will be. The resulting porcine-bi-chimeric (PBC) uratease (SEQ ID NO: 2) has 30 lysines and one more lysine than the “parental” enzyme. An additional feature of PBC urease is that its "bibe" portion differs from four out of 79 amino acid residues compared to human urease, while pig and human urease differ ten from the same site. A modified form of PBC was then constructed, which retained the extra lysine at position 291, differing from porcine urate lyase by replacing threonine with serine at residue 301 only (“pig KS” urate lyase). (SEQ ID NO: 4)). In view of the above results, where several lysine insertions have a deleterious effect on activity, whether PBC and PKS chimeric urease show the same complete activity as compared to unmodified native porcine urease and not mutated It was unpredictable whether it exhibited four times more activity than the natural non- urinary lyase.
The present invention provides a recombinant swine-bi-bee chimeric urease comprising a portion of the liver and baboon's hepatic urease sequence. An example of such chimeric urate enzymes includes the first 225 amino acids (SEQ ID NO: 7) derived from the swine urate enzyme sequence (SEQ ID NO: 7) and the latter 79 amino acids (SEQ ID NO: 6) derived from the ubiquinate urate enzyme sequence (Swine-BB Uricase, or PBC Uricase; FIG. 6 and SEQ ID NO: 2). Other examples of chimeric urate enzymes of the invention include the first 288 amino acids (SEQ ID NO: 7) derived from the swine urate enzyme sequence (SEQ ID NO: 7) and the latter 16 amino acids (SEQ ID NO: 6) derived from the baboon urate enzyme sequence do. Since the latter sequence differs from the pig's sequence at only two positions, ie it has lysine (K) instead of arginine at residue 291 and serine (S) instead of threonine at residue 301, the variant is swine-KS. Or PKS uric acid dehydrogenase.
A vector (for expression and cloning) is provided comprising a nucleic acid molecule encoding a protein of the invention. Preferred vectors include those exemplified herein.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the nucleic acid molecule can be inserted into an expression vector, such as a plasmid, in a suitable directional and accurate reading frame for expression. Regulatory sequences are generally present in the expression vectors employed and are known in the art, but where necessary, the nucleic acid (DNA) can be linked to suitable transcriptional regulatory and translational regulatory sequences recognized by the host. The vector of the present invention is then introduced into the host cell using standard techniques. In general, not all host cells are transformed with the vector. Thus, there is a need for a process for selecting transformed host cells. A selection method known in the art is to insert a DNA sequence, such as an antibiotic resistance gene, that encodes a selective marker property in a transformed cell into an expression vector with the necessary regulatory sequences. As a variant of the invention, the gene encoding the above-described selective properties may be in another vector used to co-transform the host cell. Vectors of the invention may also include suitable promoters, and may also include prokaryotic promoters that allow for expression (transcription and translation) of DNA in bacterial host cells such as E. coli. Many expression systems are known and known in the art and include bacteria (such as E. coli and Bacillus subtilis), yeast (such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae), filament fungi (such as Aspergillus), plant cells , Animal cells and insect cells.
Suitable vectors may include, for example, prokaryotic repricons such as ColE1 ori for proliferation in prokaryotic cells. Typical prokaryotic vector plasmids are pUC18, pUC19, pUC322 and PBR329 available from Biorad Laboratories (Richmond, CA) and pTcr99A and PKK223-3 available from Pharmacia (Piscataway, NJ). The vector utilizes an SV40 late promoter that promotes expression of the cloned gene and promotes the highest expression in T antigen-producing cells such as COS-1 cells. An example of an expression vector of an inducible mammal is pMSG, available from Pharmacia. The vector uses a glucocorticoid-induced promoter of long terminal repeats of mouse mammalian tumor virus to promote expression of the cloned gene. Useful yeast plasmids are pRS403-406 and pRS413-416, which are available from Stratagene Cloning System (LaJolla, Calif.). Plasmids pRS403, pRS404, pRS405 and pRS406 are yeast insertion plasmids (Yips) and insert yeast selective markers HIS3, TRP1, LEU2 and URA3. Plasmid pRS413-416 is a yeast centrifuge plasmid (Ycps).
The present invention also provides a host cell comprising the vector described above. Preferred host cells include those exemplified and described herein.
Uricase enzymes of the invention can be conjugated to relatively few PEG strands through biologically stable, nontoxic covalent bonds, which increase the biological half life and solubility and reduce immunogenicity of the enzyme. Such bonds include urethane (carbamate) bonds, secondary amine bonds and amide bonds. Various active PEGs suitable for such conjugation are available from Shearwater Polymers, Huntsville, AL.
The invention can also be used to prepare pharmaceutical compositions of uricase protein as conjugates. The conjugates are substantially immunogenic and have at least 70%, preferably 80%, more preferably about 90% or more of the uric acid degrading activity of the unmodified enzyme. Water soluble polymers suitable for use in the present invention include those referred to collectively as linear and branched poly (ethylene glycol) or poly (ethylene oxide), PEGs. An example of a branched PEG is the subject of US Pat. No. 5,643,575.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the average number of lysines inserted per uricase subunit is 1-10. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of lysine added per urate dehydrogenase subunit is 2-8. Obviously, the number of lysines added should be such that they do not adversely affect the activity of uric acid degrading enzymes. The PEG molecules of the conjugates are preferably conjugated via lysine of the urate dehydrogenase protein, more preferably via a lysine inserted into a protein that does not originally have a lysine at a non-natural lysine or insertion position.
The present invention provides a method of increasing a useful harmless PEG binding site, the method comprising the step of mutating a native uricase protein to insert at least one lysine residue. Preferably, the method is to substitute arginine with lysine.
The PEG-ureatase conjugates prepared by the present invention are useful for reducing the concentration of uric acid (ie, reducing the amount) of uric acid in the blood and / or urine of mammals, preferably humans, and include gout, gout, kidney failure, It can be used to treat increased amounts of uric acid associated with tissue transplantation and malignant disease.
PEG-urease conjugates can be introduced into mammals with excessive uric acid concentrations through a variety of routes, which can be administered by oral, enema or suppository, intravenous, transdermal, subcutaneous, intramuscular and intraperitoneal routes. . Patton, JS et al., (1992) Adv Drug Delivery Rev 8: 179-228.
Effective dosages of PEG-urease are determined by the uric acid concentration and size of the individual. In an embodiment of the invention, the PEG-urease is dissolved and administered in a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or diluent within the range of 10 μg to about 1 g. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the dosage is about 100 μg to 500 mg. More preferably, the conjugate uratease is administered at 1 mg to 100 mg, such as 5 mg, 20 mg or 50 mg. Mass at the dosage of an embodiment of the invention refers to the amount of protein in the conjugate.
Pharmaceutical formulations comprising PEG-urease may be prepared according to conventional techniques such as those disclosed by Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, (1985) Easton, PA: Mack Publishing. Excipients suitable for the preparation of injectable solutions include, for example, phosphate buffered saline, lactate Ringer's solution, water, polyols and glycols. Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for parenteral injection include pharmaceutically acceptable sterile water-soluble or non-aqueous liquids, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions and sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injections or dispersions immediately before use. Such formulations may include additional ingredients such as preservatives, solubilizers, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsions, buffers, antioxidants and diluents.
PEG-urease may also be provided as a sustained release composition for use in implantation into a subject, which will continue to regulate the increased amount of uric acid in the blood and urine. For example, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, regenerated collagen, poly L-lysine, sodium alginate, gellan gum, chitosan, agarose, multilayer liposomes and other depot formulations may be bioerodible which can be formulated with biologically active ingredients. Or a biodegradable material. The material, when implanted or injected, gradually releases the active material into surrounding tissue.

Example 1
A. Construction of PBC, PKS and Related Uricase CDNAs
Standard methods, and instructions supplied by reagent manufacturers for PCR amplification of urate oxidase cDNA (US Pat. Nos. 4,683,195 and 4,683,202, 4,965,188 & 5,075,216), and for cloning and cDNA Was used to obtain total RNA of cells for sequencing (Erich 1989; Sambrook et al. 1989; Ausubel 1998). PCR primers used in porcine and baboon urate oxidase (Table 1) were designed using published coding sequences (Wu et al. 1989) and PRIME software program (Genetics Computer Group).
Porcine Liver Uricase cDNA: Sense: 5 'gcgcgaattccATGGCTCATTACCGTAATGACTACA 3' Antisense: 5 'gcgctctagaagcttccatggTCACAGCCTTGAAGTCAGC 3' D3H BB Liver Uricase CDNA: Sense: 5 'gcgcgaattccATGGCCCACTACCATAACAACTAT 3' Antisense: 5 'gcgcccatggtctagaTCACAGTCTTGAAGACAACTTCCT 3'
Restriction sequences (lower case) introduced at the ends of the primers are sense (pig and baboon) for EcoRI and NcoI; Antisense (pig) is for NcoI, HindIII, XbaI; Antisense (BI) is for NcoI. In the case of BB's sense primers, the third codon GAC (asphatate) present in BB's urate oxidase (Wu et al. 1992) was replaced with CAC (histidine) and this codon was a human urate oxidase pseudo It exists at a corresponding position in the coding sequence of a psedogene (Wu et al. 1992). For this reason, the nasal recombinant urate oxidase produced from the use of the primers described above was named D3H nabiureate oxidase.
Total RNA of cells from pig liver and baboon liver was reverse transcribed using a primary strand kit (Pharmacia Biotech, Piscataway, NJ). PCR amplification using Taq DNA polymerase (GibcoBRL, Life Technologies, Gaithersburg, Md.) Was performed using a program [30 s, 95 ° C .; 30 s, 55 ° C .; 60 cycles in a thermal cycler (Ericomp, San Diego, Calif.) Having 60 s, 70 ° C.], followed by [30 s, 95 ° C .; 60 s, 70 ° C.] was carried out for 10 cycles. Urate oxidase PCR products were digested with EcoRI and HindIII and cloned into pUC18 (pig) and also directly cloned using the TA cloning system (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) (Pork and D3H babies). cDNA clones were transformed into E. coli XL1-Blue (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif.). Plasmid DNA containing cloned urate lyase cDNA was prepared and the cDNA insertion sequence was analyzed by standard deoxygen technology. Clones with known urate oxidase DNA coding sequences (except for the D3H substitutions in the ratios of urate oxidases listed in Table 1) were constructed and demonstrated in serial experiments by standard recombinant DNA methods.
Pig and D3H baboons containing full-length coding sequences were introduced into pET expression vectors (Novagen, Madison, WI) as follows. TA plasmids were cleaved with NcoI and BamHI restriction enzymes to obtain D3H biureta urate dehydrogenase cDNA followed by subcloning into NcoI and BamHI cloning sites of expression plasmids pET3d and pET9d. pUC plasmid clones were digested with EcoRI and HindIII restriction enzymes to obtain full-length porcine urate lyase cDNA, which was subcloned into the EcoRI and HindIII restriction sites of pET28b. Pig cDNA coding sites were also obtained by cleaving pET28b with NcoI and BlpI and introducing it into the NcoI and BlpI sites of the expression plasmid pET9d.
The clone of pET3d-D3H-bibe was treated with NcoI-ApaI restriction enzyme to obtain a 624 bp fragment of D3Hbeo urinase cDNA, and the fragment of the D3Hbebe was a 624 bp NcoI-ApaI restriction enzyme fragment of the corresponding pig cDNA. And pig-bibi chimera (PBC) cDNA was constructed. The resulting PBC urate oxidase cDNA is composed of porcine urate oxidase codon 1-225 bound to the reading frame to codon 226-304 of the biferate urate oxidase.
The clone of pET3d-D3H-bebe was treated with NcoI-NdeI restriction enzyme to obtain a 864 bp fragment of D3H bee urease cDNA, and the fragment of the D3H bee was 864 bp NcoI-NdeI restriction enzyme fragment of the corresponding pig cDNA. The porcine-KS urate oxidase (pig KS) cDNA was constructed by substituting. The resulting PKS urate oxidase cDNA consists of porcine urate oxidase codon 1-288 bound to the reading frame to codons 289-304 of baboon urate oxidase.
The amino acid sequences of D3H baboon, swine, PBC and PKS urate oxidase are shown in FIG. 5 and in the Sequence Listing. A 15% glycerol scoop of each of the transformants was prepared using standard techniques and stored at -70 ° C. Each of the transformants was expressed and recombinant enzymes were isolated (Table 2). Pigs, PBC chimeras, and swine KS urease showed very similar intrinsic activity, which was higher than the intrinsic activity of BB recombinant uricase. It is about 4-5 times higher. The above order was confirmed through a number of different experiments. The intrinsic activity of PBC uricase obtained by a number of different methods varied in the 2-2.5 fold range.

Uricase activity was determined by spectrometer (Priest and Pitts 1972). The activity measurement was carried out at 23-25 ° C. in a quartz cuvette containing 1 ml reaction mixture (0.1 M sodium borate, pH 8.6, 0.1 mM uric acid). The loss of uric acid was measured by the decrease in absorbance at 292 nm. One international unit (IU) of uricase is an amount that catalyzes the loss of 1 μmol of uric acid per minute.
E. coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS transformants of the four urate degrading enzyme cDNA-pET constructs described in Table 2 were directed to carbenicillin for the selective antibiotic (pET3d (Swine KS), as indicated in the pET system manual. And chloramphenicol); In the case of pET9d (PBC, pig, BB), it was placed in LB agar containing kanamycin and chloramphenicol. 5 ml cultures (LB and antibiotics) were inoculated with the transformed colonies alone and grown at 37 ° C. for 3 hours. A portion of 0.1 ml was then transferred to 100 ml of LB medium containing selective antibiotic and 0.1% lactose (for inducing the expression of uratease). Incubated overnight at 37 ° C., and bacterial cells from 0.5 ml of culture were extracted in SDS-PAGE loading buffer and analyzed by SDS-mercaptoethanol PAGE; This confirmed the expression of uricase protein in each of the four cultures (results not shown). Residual cells from each 100 ml culture were collected by centrifugation and washed with PBS. The cells are then resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.4 (PBS) containing 1 mM AEBSF protease inhibitor (Calbiochem, San Diego, Calif.) And digested on ice in a bacterial cell mill (Microfluidics, Boston, Mass.) It was. Insoluble material (including uric acidase) was precipitated by centrifugation (20,190 × g, 4 ° C., 15 minutes). The precipitate was washed twice with 10 mL of PBS and extracted overnight at 4 ° C. with 2 mL of 1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2. The extract was diluted with 10 mL of water and centrifuged (20,190 × g, 4 ° C., 15 min). Uricase activity and protein concentration were determined.
Example 2
Expression and Isolation of Recombinant PBC Uricase (Preparation in a 4 Liter Fermenter)
According to the Novagen pET system manual, the pET3d-PBC urate dehydrogenase transformants were run from glycerol swabs onto LB agar plates containing carbenicillin and chloramphenicol. 200 ml inoculum starting from colonies alone was prepared at 37 ° C. with LB-antibiotic liquid medium on a rotary shaker (250 rpm) using the method described in the pET system manual to maximize pET plasmid retention. When OD 525 reached 2.4, cells were collected from the 20 ml culture by centrifugation and resuspended in 50 ml of fresh medium. The suspension was transferred to a high density fermentor containing 4 liters of carbenicillin and chloramphenicol-containing SLBH medium (the composition of the SLBH medium, the design and operation of the fermentor is described in Sadler et al. 1974). After 20 hours of growth in the presence of 32 ° C. and O 2 (OD 525 = 19), 0.4 mM of isopropylthiogalactoside (IPTG) was added to induce the production of urate. After an additional 6 hours (OD 525 = 19), bacterial cells were collected by centrifugation (10,410 xg, 10 minutes, 4 ° C), washed once with PBS and stored frozen at -20 ° C.
Bacterial cells (189 g) were resuspended in 200 ml PBS and digested by refrigeration in ice / salt baths by sonication (Heat System Sonicator XL, probe model CL, Farmingdale, NY), 100% strength upon sonication. Burst 4 x 40 seconds and gave a minute break between bursts. PBS-insoluble material (including uricase) was precipitated by centrifugation (10,410 × g, 10 minutes, 4 ° C.) and washed five times with 200 ml PBS. Uricase in PBS-insoluble precipitate was extracted with 80 ml of 1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2 containing 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride (PMSF) and 130 μg / ml aprotinin. Insoluble pieces were removed by centrifugation (20,190 × g, 2 hours, 4 ° C.). All additional steps in the purification were carried out at 4 ° C. (results summarized in Table 3).
The pH 10.2 extract was diluted to 1800 mL with 1 mM PMSF (to reduce Na 2 CO 3 to 0.075 M). Dilutions were then loaded onto a column of fresh Q-Sepharose (Pharmacia Biotech, Piscataway, NJ) equilibrated to 0.075 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2. After loading, the column was washed with 1) 0.075 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2 until the A 280 absorbance of the eluent reached the background; 2) wash with 10 mM NaHCO 3 , pH 8.5 until the pH of the melt is reduced to 8.5; 3) washed with 50 ml 10 mM NaHCO 3 , pH 8.5, 0.15 M NaCl; 4) washed with a 100 ml gradient of 0.15 M to 1.5 M NaCl in 10 mM NaHCO 3 , pH 8.5; 5) washed with 150 ml 10 mM NaHCO 3 , pH 8.5, 1.5 M NaCl; 6) washed with 10 mM NaHCO 3 , pH 8.5; 7) washed with 0.1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 11 until the pH of the precipitate rose to 11. Finally, uric acid enzyme was eluted with a 500 ml concentration gradient of NaCl 0 to 0.6 M in 0.1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 11. Activity eluted at the A 280 -absorption peak, which was collected separately (fraction A and fraction B, Table 3). The uric acidase in each fraction was then precipitated by slow addition of 1 M acetic acid to pH 7.1 and centrifugation (7,000 × g, 10 min). The resulting precipitate was dissolved in 50 mL of 1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2 and stored at 4 ° C.

Small amount preparation and PEGylation of recombinant PBC urease
This example shows that purified recombinant PBC urease can be used to prepare PEGhk urease. In this reaction, all urate dehydrogenase subunits are modified (lane 7 in FIG. 1), maintaining about 60% catalytic activity.
A. Small Expression and Isolation of PBC Uricase (Table 4. FIG. 1)
A 4 L culture of E. coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS transformed with pET3d-PBC cDNA was incubated in a rotary shaker (250 rpm) at 37 ° C. At the time point when OD 525 reached 0.7, cultures were induced with IPTG (0.4 mM, 6 hours). Cells were then collected and frozen at -20 ° C. Cells (15.3 g) were disrupted by freezing and thawing and extracted with 1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2, 1 mM PMSF. After centrifugation (12,000 × g, 10 min, 4 ° C.), the supernatant (85 mL) was diluted 1:10 with water and loaded onto a Q-Sepharose column in a similar manner to Example 1. Uricase obtained from the above procedure was concentrated by pressure ultrafiltration using a PM30 membrane (Amicon, Beverly, MA). The concentrate was loaded onto a Sephacryl S-200 (Pharmacia Biotech, Piscataway, NJ) column (2.5 × 100 cm) equilibrated to 0.1 M Na 2 CO 3 , pH 10.2. Fractions showing uric acid enzyme activity were collected and concentrated by the pressure filtration method described above.

PEGylated urateases were either unreacted or separated from hydrolyzed PEG by flow diafiltration of the tangent. In the process, the reaction with 0.1 M Na 2 CO 3, pH 10.2, and then with a 1:10 dilution, 3.5 vol 0.1 M Na 2 CO 3, followed by pH 10.2 3.5 vol 0.05 M sodium phosphate, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.2 Diamond filtration was performed. The filter-sterilizing enzyme was stable for at least 1 month at 4 ° C.

The results in Table 4 show that the purified PBC urate dehydrogenase can be modified while maintaining about 60% catalytic activity. In the PEGylation reaction, all urate dehydrogenase subunits were modified (FIG. 1, lane 7). Although the results are not shown, PEGylated enzymes exhibit similar kinematic properties to unmodified PBC uratease (K M 10-20 μM). Importantly, the modified enzyme is more soluble at physiological pH (> 5 mg / ml in PBS vs. <1 mg / ml) compared to the unmodified enzyme. In addition, PEGylated enzymes were lyophilized with minimal loss of activity and could be reconstituted in PBS, pH 7.2. In another experiment, we compared the activity of PEG-PBC urease and A. flavus urease clinical preparations. At borate buffer pH 8.6, the A. flavus enzyme showed 10-14 times higher V max and 2 times higher K M. However, at PBS pH 7.2, PEG-PBC and unmodified fungi enzymes showed a <2 fold difference in uricase activity.
Example 4
Cyclic Lifespan of Unmodified and PEGylated PBC Uricase in Mice
2 shows the circulating lifespan of unmodified and PEGylated PBC urease. One group of unmodified (circular) or PEG-modified (square) recombinant PBC urease (prepared in Example 3) was intraperitoneally injected into the group of mice (3 per time point). At the indicated times, blood was obtained from three mice to measure serum urate enzyme activity. PEGylated uratease (described in Example 3) exhibited circulating half-life of about 48 hours, whereas unmodified enzyme showed <2 hours (FIG. 2).
Example 5
Efficacy of PEGylated Uratease of the Present Invention
Figure 3 shows the relationship between the uric acid enzyme activity of serum and uric acid concentration of serum and urine. In this experiment, 0.4 IU PEGylated recombinant PBC urease was injected twice at 0 and 72 hours in homozygous urease-deficient knockout mice (Wu et al. 1994). Uricase deficient knockout mice were used in this experiment, unlike normal mice with uricase enzymes, knockout mice have a high concentration of uric acid in the blood and body fluids, similar to humans, to excrete large amounts of uric acid by urine. Because. Such high concentrations of uric acid cause severe damage to the kidneys of mice, which are often life threatening (Wu et al. 1994).
The experiment shown in FIG. 3 shows that the urinary oxidase activity in serum was increased when intraperitoneally administered the PEGylated preparation of recombinant PBC urease, which significantly increased serum and urinary uric acid concentrations in urease-deficient mice. Decreases.
Example 6
Non-immunogenicity of the Construct-carrier Complex
Homozygous urease-deficient mice were repeatedly injected with PEGylated recombinant PBC urease without inducing promotion of clearance corresponding to the absence of significant immunogenicity. The result was confirmed by ELISA. 4 shows the maintenance of the circulating amount of uricase activity (measured in serum) after repeated injections. PEGylated PBC uricase was intraperitoneally injected at 6-10 day intervals. Serum urate enzyme activity was determined 24 hours after injection.
Example 7
Covalent Bond to Lysine Introduced by Mutation
PEGylation of purified recombinant PBC uratease binds to novel lysine (residue 291). In this experiment, PBC uratease could be modified by PEGylation. Whether the peptide comprising the novel lysine (residue 291) has been PEGylated modified can be determined by methods known to those skilled in the art.
