An expression system (pSKGFP), which permits the expression of single-chain variable fragments as fusion proteins with modified green fluorescent proteins, was designed. This expression system is comparable to frequently used phage display vectors and allows single-step characterization of the selected recombinant antibodies by flow cytometry or fluorescent cell staining. Two different single-chain variable fragment antibodies, both directed against the lipopolysaccharide of the bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum have been genetically fused to a red-shifted green fluorescent protein and the produced fusion protein tested for usefulness. These fluobodies can be produced in cultures of bacterial cells and purified using immobilized metal affinity chromatography. They function well in flow cytometry and immunofluorescent cell staining, are specific for their target antigens and, unlike FITC-conjugated antibodies, they do not fade upon illumination. 相似文献

In the present work we demonstrate the efficient display of functional scFv antibodies on the bacteriophage lambda capsid. A single-chain (scFv) anti-CEA antibody gene was cloned in two different vectors to obtain fusion of the scFv antibody to the N- or C-terminus of the bacteriophage lambda capsid protein D (gpD). Lambda bacteriophage assembly occurs in the reducing environment of the cytoplasm; despite this the lambda-displayed anti-CEA antibody fragments retain the capacity to recognize the antigen, indicating correct single-chain antibody folding.
Efficient production of functional scFv exposed on lambda capsid with viable antigen binding specificity allowed us to study and compare the capacity of display, the stability of recombinant antibody expression and the assembly efficiency of bacteriophage particles decorated with recombinant antibody fused to the amino- or carboxy-terminus of lambda D protein. 相似文献

In recent years, substantial experience has been accumulated with tumor-specific immunotherapeutics which seem to be effective against minimal residual disease. The coupling of toxins to monoclonal antibodies has indicated promising results in early clinical trials. Recombinant DNA technology makes it possible to genetically fuse coding regions of V genes or cytokines to modified toxin domains. These recombinant immunotoxins can easily be manipulated to increase the cytotoxic potency or affinity. Binding single-chain variable fragments (scFv) expressed as chimeric fusion proteins on the surface of filamentous bacteriophages were selected on Hodgkin-derived cell lines. This technique was also used to create a new humanized anti-CD30 scFv which exhibits similar binding to the CD30 antigen when compared to its murine predecessor. ScFvs were then inserted into a new bacterial expression vector and thus fused to a deletion mutant of Pseudomonas exotoxin. Anti-CD25(scFv)-ETA' and anti-CD30(scFv)-ETA' were isolated from E. coli periplasm and purified by metal chelate affinity and size exclusion chromatography. All immunotoxins produced showed specific cytotoxicity against Hodgkin lymphoma cell lines as documented by competitive assays. In addition, these constructs were highly efficient in the treatment of disseminated human Hodgkin's disease in SCID mice. These in vivo data indicate a possible clinical impact for patients with relapsed CD25- and/or CD30-positive lymphoma. 相似文献

Single-chain variable fragment antibodies (scFv) retain antigen specificity and offer advantages over intact antibodies as therapeutic agents. We cloned the cDNA of the V(H) and V(kappa) regions from a mouse hybridoma (HB-9645) directed against human CD20. In addition to the basic scFv construct (V(kappa)-L-V(H)), we genetically engineered a secretory signal, six histidine residues, and a 'Flu' tag to facilitate secretion, purification, and detection. A glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) modification signal was added at the C terminus. The GPI-tagged and the non-tagged scFvs were expressed in high yields on the surface of stably transfected insect cells. The CD20-binding properties of purified non-GPI tagged scFv were examined using flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. The non-GPI-tagged scFv selectively recognizes CD20-positive cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Double-flow cytometry analysis using fresh peripheral blood lymphocytes and WSU-FSCCL cells revealed that our scFv resolves the B-cell population better than the intact antibody. The GPI-tagged scFv was loaded onto the surface of sheep erythrocytes to form rosettes with CD20-positive cells. The genetically engineered anti-CD20 scFv and GPI-tagged derivative have binding specificity for the CD20 antigen. The scFvs described here has potential uses as an in vivo tumor-imaging agent and as a carrier vehicle for targeted delivery of cytocidal agents to CD20-positive cancer cells. 相似文献

Expression of single-chain Fv-Fc fusions in Pichia pastoris 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Phage display technology makes possible the direct isolation of monovalent single-chain Fv antibody fragments. For many applications, however, it is useful to restore Fc mediated antibody functions such as avidity, effector functions and a prolonged serum half-life. We have constructed vectors for the convenient, rapid expression of a single-chain antibody Fv domain (scFv) fused to the Fc portion of human IgG1 in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. The scFv-Fc fusion protein is secreted and recovered from the culture medium as a disulfide-linked, glycosylated homodimer. The increased size of the dimer (approximately 106 kDa vs. approximately 25 kDa for a scFv) results in a prolonged serum half-life in vivo, with t(1/2) of the beta phase of clearance increasing from 3.5 h for a typical scFv to 93 h for a scFv-Fc fusion in mice. The scFv-Fc fusion is capable of mediating antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity against tumor target cells using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells as effectors. Finally, the Fc domain is a convenient, robust affinity handle for purification and immunochemical applications, eliminating the need for proteolytically sensitive epitope and/or affinity tags on the scFv. 相似文献

Twelve single chain variable fragment (scFv) antibodies that bind to particles of Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) were obtained from two naive phage display libraries. Phages were selected against PLRV particles or dissociated PLRV particles immobilised onto tubes. Individual PLRV-binding scFv were identified by ELISA, after their expression either fused to the surface of phage particles, or as soluble scFv (scFv-c-myc), or as scFv-alkaline phosphatase fusion proteins (scFv-AP), obtained by subcloning into pSKAP/S. These procedures resulted in the isolation of scFv with different properties. For example, some of the scFv reacted strongly with virus particles but not with dissociated capsid protein, which suggests that they had reacted with discontinuous epitopes. Others reacted with dissociated capsid proteins and SDS-denatured protein, which suggests that they had reacted with continuous epitopes. ScFv were also subcloned into pC(L) for expression as fusion proteins with human kappa constant region (scFv-C(L)). Expression of these constructs in Escherichia coli yielded 0.2-1 mg protein per litre of bacterial culture. The different scFv fusion proteins were evaluated in ELISA to detect PLRV in leaf extracts of Physalis floridana. Absorbance values obtained with the fusion proteins were greater than those obtained with the scFv-c-myc, and were similar to those obtained in assays done using monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies. 相似文献

Background: The rapid development of recombinant antibody technology in the last few years has facilitated the generation of antibody libraries in bacteria. Recombinant antibodies against various antigens have been selected from these libraries by presenting each antibody on the surface of a phagemid particle that contains the antibody's gene. An alternative screening system is the display of antibody fragments on bacteria. A major advantage is the possibility to select single cells directly from a large number of bacteria by using fluorescently labeled antigens and fluorescence assisted cell sorting (FACS). Objectives: pAP is an expression vector for the bacterial display of antibody fragments. E. coli transformed with pAP express a single chain antibody (scFv) fused to the peptidoglycan-associated-lipoprotein (PAL). This fusion protein binds strongly to the cell wall. To employ this system for screening, we have investigated the possibility of selecting antigen-specific clones by FACS. Study design and results: Several DNA fragments coding for various scFvs were inserted into the pAP expression vector. E. coli were transformed with these plasmids and immunostained with fluorescent antigens under given conditions. We were able to select stained E. coli expressing a specific scFv from unstained E. coli expressing a non-binding scFv by FACS. The specific selection of the bacteria was demonstrated by amplifying their genes by PCR. Conclusions: Conditions are described for separating E. coli containing scFv bound to their cell wall by FACS using fluorescently labeled antigens. These studies provide a basis for screening libraries of scFv antibodies. 相似文献

Controlling complement resistance in cancer by using human monoclonal antibodies that neutralize complement-regulatory proteins CD55 and CD59 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Expression of the complement-regulatory proteins (CRP) CD46, CD55 and CD59 represents a strategy used by tumor cells to evade complement-dependent cell cytoxicity stimulated by monoclonal antibodies. We have isolated two single-chain variable fragments (scFv) to CD55 and CD59 from a human phage-display library and from these scFv we have produced two miniantibodies (MB), MB-55 (against CD55) and MB-59 (against CD59), containing the human hinge-CH2-CH3 domains of IgG1. The specificity of the two MB for the corresponding CRP was assessed by ELISA using purified CD46, CD55 and CD59. MB-55 and MB-59 neutralized the inhibitory activity of CD55 and CD59, respectively, restoring the complement-mediated lysis of sheep and guinea pig erythrocytes that was otherwise inhibited by the two CRP. FACS analysis revealed binding of MB-55 and MB-59 to the lymphoma cell line Karpas 422. The two MB induced a two-fold increase in the complement-dependent killing of these cells stimulated by Rituximab, a chimeric anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody. Transfection of HEK293T cells with vectors encoding MB-55 or MB-59 markedly reduced the expression of CD55 and CD59. We conclude that the human antibodies MB-55 and MB-59 may represent a therapeutic tool to increase the complement-dependent killing activity of Rituximab in the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 相似文献

A single chain antibody obtained by cell panning of antibody phage inhibits homoaggregation of human leukemia cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The aim of this study was to establish a method to obtain antibodies against cell-surface molecules of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in situ. A phage-displayed scFv antibody library with a size of 2 x 10(6) clones was constructed from spleens of mice immunized with living KG1a human leukemia cells. Living cell panning was used to screen anti-KG1a cell antibody fragments. After four rounds of panning, 27 out of 126 scFv fragments showed detectable binding to KG1a cells without cross-reaction to non-hematopoietic cell lines. Individual clones were analyzed by cell-based ELISA and flow cytometry for their binding specificity. Their sequence analysis showed highest homology to mouse gamma heavy chain subgroup II and mouse Kappa subgroup III genes, with four amino acids difference in VH and identical VL. Further, a fusion protein of scFv 5C1 to core-streptavidin was cloned and produced. It was used to search for cell-surface antigen on immunoblots and to test its effect on KG1a cell growth in cell culture. The scFv5C1::core-streptavidin fusion protein recognized a molecule with MW 85/125 KDa in immunoblots of KG1a cell membrane proteins and inhibited KG1a cell homoaggregation in cell cultures. The results validate an efficient approach of making antibodies against living cells and searching for functional inhibitors of cell-surface molecules. 相似文献

A system was constructed for the production of alkaline phosphatase (aP)-labeled antibody single-chain Fv (scFv) fragments in Escherichia coli. The expression vector pASK75 was modified by sequentially inserting the E. coli aP coding region and the scFv cloning cassette. Engineering the cloning sites SfiI and NotI located at the 5' and 3' end of the scFv gene provides an easy means to insert scFv fragments. These cloning sites are widely used in recombinant antibody technology and, thus, enable the one-step cloning of scFv fragments derived from corresponding antibody phage libraries into the expression vector. An expressed herbicide-specific scFv aP fusion protein retained both, analyte binding and enzymatic activity, as determined by ELISA. Therefore, this system permits the production of scFv-aP conjugates in E. coli, which can replace conventionally prepared aP-labeled antibodies in immunoassays. These fusion proteins are designed to accelerate the immunochemical detection of analytes, since the assay duration is essentially reduced by omitting the use of enzyme labeled secondary antibodies. 相似文献

CTLA4 (CD152) is a transmembrane molecule expressed on activated T cells and functions as a negative regulator of T cell activation upon binding to the costimulatory molecules CD80/86. In this study, CTLA4eEGFP constructs were engineered by cloning the extracellular domains of ovine and human CTLA4 (CTLA4e) 'in frame' with the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). Recombinant adenoviral vectors were generated by incorporation of the CTLA4eEGFP sequence into the adenoviral genome using homologous recombination in Esherichia coli. The functional activity of the adenoviral vectors was shown by the secretion of the CTLA4eEGFP upon infection of ovine fibroblasts and the binding of the fusion protein to the target ovine and human dendritic cells expressing CD80/86 receptors by flow cytometry. The EGFP tag facilitated molecular size determinations and quantification of the secreted ovine CTLA4 fusion protein by immunoprecipitation and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively, using anti-GFP mAbs. Ovine dendritic cells obtained from pseudoafferent lymphatic cannulation of sheep were characterized based on high major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II expression and cross-reactivity with monoclonal antibodies to the human dendritic cell markers, CD83 and CMRF-56. In addition, ovine dendritic cells (DC) were transfected with the adenoviral CTLA4eEGFP and when used as stimulators in a mixed lymphocyte reaction showed a reduced capacity to induce allogeneic lymphocyte proliferation. This study verifies that the ovine CTLA4eEGFP fusion protein functions similarly to its human homologue and that DC modified with adenoviral CTLA4-EGFP may provide an effective therapeutic approach in targeting alloreactive T cells to prolong allograft acceptance in a preclinical ovine model of renal transplantation. 相似文献

Modified HIV envelope proteins with enhanced binding to neutralizing monoclonal antibodies 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
The target for neutralizing antibodies against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the trimeric Env protein on the native virion. Conserved neutralizing epitopes of receptor binding sites are located in the recessed core of the Env protein, partially masked by glycosylations and variable loops. In this study, we have investigated the effects of modifications of the HIV Env protein by glycosylation site mutations, deletions of variable loops, or combinations of both types of mutations on their protein functions and reactivities with neutralizing antibodies. Modified Env proteins were expressed in insect or mammalian cells, and their reactivity with epitope-specific broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) was determined by flow cytometry. A unique mutant designated 3G with mutations in three glycosylation motifs within the V3/C3 domains surrounding the CD4 binding site showed higher levels of binding to most broadly neutralizing Mabs (b12 and 2F5) in both insect and mammalian expression systems. Mutants with a deletion of both V1 and V2 loop domains or with a unique combination of both types of mutations also bound to most neutralizing Mabs at higher levels compared to the wild-type control. Most mutants maintained the ability to bind CD4 and to induce syncytium formation at similar or higher levels as compared to that of the wild-type Env protein, except for a mutant with a combination of variable loop deletions and deglycosylation mutations. Our study suggests that modified HIV Env proteins with reduced glycosylation in domains surrounding the CD4 binding site or variable loop-deleted mutants expose important neutralizing epitopes at higher levels than wild type and may provide novel vaccine immunogens. 相似文献

Lentiviral vectors (LV) are widely used to successfully transduce cells for research and clinical applications. Lentiviral vectors pseudotyped with the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) can be produced to high titers and mediate high transduction efficiencies in vitro. For clinical applications the need for optimized transduction protocols and the limited activity of retronectin as LV enhancer, results in the application of a high multiplicity of infection (MOI) to achieve effective transduction efficiencies for a number of therapeutically relevant cells, e.g. CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells, T- and B-cells. Our study describes an optimized LV infection protocol including a non-toxic poloxamer-based adjuvant combined with antibody-retargeted lentiviral particles, improving transduction efficiency at low MOI. Cell specificity of lentiviral vectors was increased by displaying different ratios of scFv-fused VSV-G glycoproteins on the viral envelope. The system was validated with difficult to transduce human CD30+ lymphoma cells, and EGFR+ tumor cells. Highly efficient transduction of lymphoma cells was achieved, >50% of cells were transduced when MOI 1 was used. The scFv displaying lentiviral particles gained relative specificity for transduction of target cells. Preferential gene delivery to CD30+ or EGFR+ cells was increased 4-fold in mixed cell cultures by presenting scFv antibody fragments binding to respective surface markers. A combination of spinoculation, poloxamer-based chemical adjuvant, and LV displaying scFv fragments increases transduction efficiencies of hard-to-transduce suspension lymphoma cells, and promises new chances for the future development of improved clinical protocols. 相似文献
