Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel polypeptides which include glycosylation motifs, to DNA encoding said polypeptides, and to the use of these moieties for example in vaccines.
- WO97/083222 describes and claims a gene mpt83 which encodes the glycosylated protein MPT83 of M. tuberculosis . It has previously been reported that MPT83 is post-translationally modified by the fast growing mycobacterium M. smegmatis (R.G. Hewinson et al., Scand. J. Immunol. 43 (1996) pp 490-499).
- glycosylation motif a smaller motif will act as a glycosylation motif.
- a further glycosylation site within the PT83 protein has been identified. Such sites may advantageously be introduced into other proteins particularly when these are intended to be used as vaccines . Glycosylation may improve the immunogenicity of the protein. Furthermore, it has been found that in some instances, glycosylation leads to improved stability of the protein, leading for example to a longer and stronger immune response.
- the invention provides a recombinant DNA which encodes a polypeptide which is other than a wild-type or native polypeptide and which is glycosylated when expressed in an actinomycete host, said DNA comprising a sequence which encodes the amino acid sequence
- PAAPVTTAA SEQ ID NO 1
- fragment or variant thereof including at least both the threonine residues and being able to act as a glycosylation motif;
- the term " fragment” includes small peptide units for example of 5 amino acids or more.
- variant refers to peptide units wherein one or more amino acids, for example up to 4 amino acids, have been changed whilst not altering the qualitative function of the peptide.
- the changes may be what are regarded as " conservative substitutions" where amino acids are replaced by amino acids of an essentially similar nature (e.g. basicity etc.) in which case rather more subtitutions may be tolerated.
- Alternatively a small number of non-conservative substitutions may be introduced without altering the function of the peptide, as would be determinable by the skilled person.
- the recombinant DNA of the invention comprises a sequence encoding SEQ ID No 1 as defined above .
- a sequence may be the sequence found in the mpt83 gene, i.e.
- a futher glycosylation motif of MPT83 involves the asparagine at position 192 in the sequence. It is probable that this residue forms part of a glycosylation motif located between 179-196 of MPT83.
- the motif is of at least 5 amino acids, and preferably at least 10 amino acids in length. The entire 20 amino acid sequence is of sequence
- recombinant DNA of the invention may encode said sequence (SEQ ID No. 3) .
- the DNA may comprise the sequence as found in mpt83 , i.e.
- Polypeptides obtainable by expression of a recombinant DNA as described above form a further aspect of the invention.
- Such polypeptides may be obtained by incorporating recombinant DNA as described above into a replication vector, transforming a suitable host cell with said vector and culturing the cell.
- Methods of preparing polypeptides as well as vectors and transformed cells used in the method form further aspects of the invention.
- Suitable host cells would be determinable by the skilled person using routine methods. However, preferably the host cell is an actinomycete such as a mycobacterial cell.
- modified polypeptides of the invention and especially the DNA encoding said polypeptides are explained in WO97/083222.
- these modified polypeptides would be useful in vaccines, especially those protective against mycobacterial infection such a tuberculosis, since they may improve immunogenicity and stability as discussed above.
- they would provide a serological marker allowing the vaccine strain to be distinguished from infection by a native strain.
- Vaccines may be in the form of live or " killed” vaccines as is understood in the art.
- the " naked DNA” approach to vaccines would be amenable to the use of the present invention.
- Vaccines may be in the form of pharmaceutical compositions in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- FIG. 1 illustrates the E. coli alkaline phosphatse (PhoA) reporter system
- Figure 2 shows the alignment of amino acid sequences of MPT83 and MPT70;
- Figure 3 illustrates the modification of MPT70 to introduce a glycosylation site
- Figure 4 shows a range of constructs tested for recognition by ConA
- Figure 5 illustrates a proposed model for glycosylation of the antigen MPT83.
- Sonicated extracts of recombinant M. smegmatis expressing the above constructs were tested for ConA binding after fractionation by SDS-PAGE and transfer to nitrocellulose membranes. Levels of protein expression were determined by anti-PhoA immunoblotting. Equal expression of the MPT70 and MPT83-PhoA fusions were confirmed by the immunoblot ing with anti-PhoA. The MPT83-PhoA fusion was recognised by ConA whereas the MPT70-PhoA fusion was not. Therefore, it was concluded that the signal motif for glycosylation of MPT83 lies within the amino acid residues that differ from those of MPT70 (See Figure 2) .
- PAAPVTTAA amino acid sequence (SEQ ID No 1) (residues 43-51) that was thought to be similar to the sequence of a glycopeptide, PAPPVPTTA, from a 45kda protein of M. tuberculosis (K.M. Dobos et al., Infect Immun 63 (1995) 2846-53). This latter peptide was shown to be ) -glycosidically linked to a disaccharide composed of two hexose residues through a threonine residue.
- Example 3 Immunoblotting was effected as described in Example 2. This showed that mutation of the threonine residues ablated ConA binding. There was also a noteable decrease in the apparent molecular weight of the mutated fusion protein. This result suggests that the peptide region of SEQ Id No. 1 is a signal motif for O-linked glycosylation in MPT83.
- Example 4 my ⁇ osylation of MPT70 using the signal motif of MPT83 The corresponding regions of the MPT83 and MPT70 proteins is shown in Table 3.
- N-linked glycosylation site within MPT83 Further comparison of the amino acid sequence of MPT83 and MPT70 identified manner differences in amino acid sequence that might generate motifs for both 0 and N-linked glycosylation in MPT83.
- a putative site for N-linked glycosylation was identifed within the carboxy terminus of MPT83 at asparagine residue 193. This residue was mutated to glycine (the corresponding residue in MPT70) in both the native molecule and a recombinant MPT83 lacking the O-glycosylation site at threonine residues 48 and 49 as shown in Figure 4.
- the recognition of the constructs by ConA is also shown in Figure 4.
