Methods of synthesizing heteromultimeric polypeptides in yeast using a haploid mating strategy

ActiveUS20060270045A1Enhance full-length product generationIncrease secretionFungiMicrobiological testing/measurementBiotechnologyMating
Methods are provided for the synthesis and secretion of recombinant proteins preferably large mammalian proteins or hetero-multimeric proteins at high levels and for prolonged time in polyploid, preferably diploid yeast. These methods use various mating competent yeast, including Pichia. In a preferred embodiment, a first expression vector is transformed into a first haploid cell; and a second expression vector is transformed into a second haploid cell. The transformed haploid cells, each individually synthesizing a non-identical polypeptide, are identified and then genetically crossed or fused. The resulting diploid strains are utilized to produce and secrete fully assembled and biologically functional hetero-multimeric protein.

Novel immunogenic mimetics of multimer proteins

The present invention relatas to novel immunogenic variants of multimeric proteins such as immunogenic variants of interleukin 5 (IL5) and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF, TNFalpha). The variants are, besides from being immunogenic in the autologous host, also highly similar to the native 3D structure of the proteins from which they are derived. Certain variants are monomeric mimics of the multimers, where peptide linkers (inert or T helper epitope containing) ensure a spatial organisation of the monomomer units that facilitate correct folding. A subset of variants are monomer TNFalpha variants that exhibit a superior capability of assembling into multimers with a high structural similarity to the native protein. Also disclosed are methods of treatment and production of the variants as well as DNA fragments, vectors, and host cells.
