The present invention relates to new in vitro glycosylation methods that provide rational approaches for generating glycosylated proteins, and the use thereof.
Glycosylation is the process by which a carbohydrate is covalently attached to a target protein, such as an enzyme.1-2 The attachment of carbohydrate moieties to proteins is a post-translational modification (PTM) that provides greater proteomic diversity to proteins. Glycosylation is critical for a wide range of biological processes, including cell attachment to the extracellular matrix and protein-ligand interactions in the cell. In the normal course of in vivo protein glycosylation, proteins are generally N-glycosylated on asparagine, or O-glycosylated on serine or threonine residues.
The glycosylation of proteins serves various functions.2-3 For instance, it is known that some proteins and protein classes do not fold correctly in the absence of glycosylation. In other instances, proteins are not stable in the absence of oligosaccharides linked at the amide nitrogen of certain asparagine residues).4 In addition, it is well established that some enzymes, such as glucose oxidase, display better stability and enzymatic parameters when glycosylated than in the absence of glycosylation.5-6
The importance of N-linked glycosylation is becoming increasingly evident in the field of pharmaceuticals.2, 4, 7 In recent years, a considerable emphasis has been placed on the development and deployment of in vitro glycosylation methods to alter and enhance the glycoforms on proteins, and in particular, antibodies.8 A number of strategies have been reported.9 One approach that has emerged is a multi-step process that involves production of an N-linked glycosylated protein, removal of the glycan moieties except for the terminal N-acetylglucosamine residues attached to asparagines, and subsequent enzymatic attachment of a new glycoform to alter the immune response of the target protein. This method of glycan remodeling requires (1) that the carbohydrate to be activated has an N-acetyl moiety at the 2-position of the reducing end of the carbohydrate to be conjugated, (2) that the target glycosylation sites have a GlcNAc residue already present on the protein, and (3) the carbohydrate to be conjugated be a substrate for endoglycosidase-catalyzed transglycosylation.9-11 These requirements limit the modification of proteins utilizing this method. Recently, carbohydrate oxazolines have been used as activated glycosyl donor substrates for endoglycosidase-catalyzed transglycosylation.12 In addition to the previously mentioned requirements, the naturally occurring hydrolytic activity of endoglycosidases towards the oxazolines limits the efficiency of this approach.7-9, 11
The in vivo N-glycosylation of lysine residues, i.e. attachment of a glycan to the terminal nitrogen of a lysine sidechain, in full-length proteins is rare.13 Reports of N-glycosylation of lysine with glucose are largely associated with modifications of collagen in aged or diabetic tissue.14-15 The in vivo attachment of other glycans to lysine remains undescribed. O-glycosylation of hydroxylysine has been reported and is also commonly associated with collagen formation.16-17 In this instance, the lysine sidechain is post-translationally modified by hydroxylation, which provides the site for glycan attachment. While in vivo glycosylation of arginines and histidines have been reported, no corresponding selective in vitro glycosylation methodology has been reported.13, 18-20
Other references of interest include those where smaller molecular weight amino acid chains are glycosylated by the oxazoline approach.11-12, 21-26 Much, if not most, of the existing art teaches away from direct lysine glycosylation by carbohydrate oxazolines in favor of methods in which the carbohydrate oxazoline is used as a substrate for an endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidases to synthesize aspartate N-linked glycoproteins.11-12, 21-26 Direct lysine glycosylation by carbohydrate oxazolines are often referred to as “by-products”.23
The present invention is broadly concerned with new in vitro glycosylation methods that provide rational approaches for producing glycosylated proteins, and the use of glycosylated proteins. In more detail, the present invention comprises methods of glycosylating a starting protein having an amino sidechain with a nucleophilic moiety, comprising the step of reacting the protein with a carbohydrate having an oxazoline moiety on the reducing end thereof, in a compatible aqueous medium, to covalently bond the amino sidechain of the starting protein with the oxazoline moiety, wherein the glycosylated protein substantially retains the structure and function of the starting protein.
In another embodiment, the invention is concerned with glycosylated proteins comprising a starting protein having an amino sidechain with a nucleophilic moiety glycosylated with a carbohydrate having an oxazoline moiety on the reducing end thereof, wherein the oxazoline moiety is covalently bound with the nucleophilic moiety. The glycosylated proteins advantageously have molecular weights of at least about 7500 Daltons, and substantially retain the structure and function of the starting protein.
In a further embodiment, the present invention concerns the use of glycosylated proteins, fabricated by the methods disclosed herein, in the assembly of amperometric biosensors. The amperometric biosensors comprise a counter electrode, a reference electrode, one or more optional rejection layers, and a working electrode that comprises a sensing element, which comprises a support having a surface; and a layer on the surface, wherein the layer comprises an amino sidechain glycosylated enzyme, wherein the enzyme is predominantly in its active form.
The present invention provides methods of modifying a protein, the methods comprise in vitro glycosylation methods that provide a rational approach for generating glycosylated versions of proteins. This invention allows for the custom control of the carbohydrate moieties placed on the protein including those that may be stabilizing. In certain embodiments, the protein is an enzyme. In general, glycosylated enzymes may be more stable than their unglycosylated counterparts.
In one aspect of this invention, the target protein is unglycosylated. The new glycosylation method does not require the use of either eukaryotic expression platforms or the presence of existing N-linked glycosylation sites in the target protein. In a unique aspect of this invention, the target protein may already be N-glycosylated or O-glycosylated in the traditional sense, thereby providing a hyper-glycosylated protein product. This method of in vitro glycoprotein manufacturing may provide a more direct, robust, and scalable method than those currently employed, such as enzymatic modification of existing glycans or genetic manipulation of the cellular glycosylation machinery. Existing approaches may suffer from poor scalability and a high degree of difficulty. These problems are absent in the present invention.
This invention describes a new method for glycosylating proteins that does not require the presence of a sequeon or glycosyltransfer consensus glycosylation amino acid recognition sequence.1, 3, 13 In one embodiment, this invention uses the NE-amino group of the lysine sidechain as a nucleophile to covalently bond to a carbohydrate oxazoline to form one or more amidine moieties (Schemes 1 and 2). The method is mild, and allows for the transfer of multiple glycans to a target protein. A protein may contain one or more lysine residues that are available to undergo modification by glycosylation.
Scheme 1 shows the numbering of the parent N-acyl-2-amino carbohydrate depicting the free reducing end at C1 (i.e. a hemiacetylic hydroxyl). The dehydration of the N-acyl-2-amino moiety and the C1 hydroxyl forms the carbohydrate oxazoline in aqueous media. Dehydration can be accomplished in basic media using published methods.12, 21-22 Bases such as triethylamine and solid Na3PO4 may be used to promote dehydration. All carbohydrate manipulations may take place in aqueous solution, including buffered aqueous solutions, in the absence of any protecting group chemistries. In one embodiment, this first reaction of forming a carbohydrate oxazoline takes place over about 24 hours. In a preferred embodiment, this first reaction of forming a carbohydrate oxazoline takes place from about one to six hours.
In one embodiment, a non-obvious neutralization step of the oxazoline modified glycan with bicine (or any suitable acid or buffer within a preferred pH range) prior to coupling to the target protein (e.g. an enzyme), is required. Most proteins, and in particular enzymes, are not generally tolerant of pH values much higher than pH of about 8.5, at which point structural unfolding, and covalent modifications begin to occur. Since formation of the oxazoline requires significant quantities (7.5 molar excess) of base, said base must be either removed by filtration and/or neutralized with a concentrated buffer solution to prevent exposing the oxazoline or the target protein to a pH above 8.5 when the two species are combined. In a preferred embodiment, the pH of the oxazoline containing solution is adjusted to maintain optimal enzyme catalytic function. The preferred pH range for the reaction of the oxazoline with a protein target, such as an enzyme, is pH 5 to pH 9. A more preferred pH range is pH 6.5 to pH 8.5. The most preferred range is pH 7.0 to pH 8.0. Reactions are driven to completion by the action of Le Chatliere's Principle regardless of the pH.
Prototypical reaction of the parent N-acyl-2-amino carbohydrate oxazoline with a nucleophilic amino sidechain moiety on a protein yields the carbohydrate modified protein through the two tautomeric bonding schemes as depicted in Scheme 2. These tautomers may be in equilibrium with each other and other structures related to these two canonical structures.11 In one embodiment, the amino acids that contain a nucleophilic amino sidechain moiety are selected from the group consisting of lysine, arginine and histidine. In a preferred embodiment, the amino acid that contains a nucleophilic amino sidechain moiety is lysine. In one embodiment, this second reaction takes place from about 2 hours to about 96 hours. In another embodiment, the temperature of this second reaction is from about 0° C. to about 37° C. In a preferred embodiment, the temperature of this second reaction is from about 4° C. to about 25° C.
In another embodiment, the invention includes the steps of first reacting a carbohydrate having an N-acyl-2-amino group on the reducing end thereof with a dehydrating agent to form an oxazoline moiety on the reducing end of a carbohydrate, and then reacting said oxazoline carbohydrate with a starting protein. In a preferred embodiment, the method of claim 13, including the step of carrying out said first reaction for a period from about 1-6 hours, and carrying out said protein/oxazoline carbohydrate reaction for a period of from about 2 hours to 96 hours.
There is no stereochemical requirement at C2, C3, C4, C5 and C6 of the carbohydrate, and the N-acyl moiety may be either equatorially or axially disposed and still result in formation of an oxazoline. The R moiety on the acyl group is defined herein.
Thus, in one embodiment of this invention, carbohydrates with an N-acylglucosamine saccharide at the reducing end can covalently bond with a target protein (Scheme 2). In another embodiment of this invention, carbohydrates with an N-acylmannosamine saccharide at the reducing end can covalently bond with a target protein (Scheme 2). In another embodiment of this invention, carbohydrates with an N-acylgalactosamine saccharide at the reducing end can covalently bond with a target protein (Scheme 2). In another embodiment of the invention, the R group is not limited to methyl (Scheme 2).
One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the C3, C4 and C6 hydroxyl moieties on the parent N-acyl-2-amino carbohydrate may be further substituted with other carbohydrates to form disaccharide structures, and that free C2, C3, C4 and C6 hydroxyls within disaccharide structures may be further substituted to form larger oligosaccharides.

In another embodiment, the attachment of a N-acyl-2-amino carbohydrate oxazoline with a nucleophilic amino sidechain moiety on a protein yields the carbohydrate modified protein with an alternative glycosylation pattern to existing, natural glycosylation patterns. This altered glycosylation pattern has the potential of conferring new properties to the target protein, such as enhanced stability of an enzyme. In addition, the ability to add oligosaccharides to proteins that are naturally glycosylated, such as glucose oxidase, offers the possibility to hyper-glycosylate said proteins. This is especially important for the stabilization of enzymes, most especially oxidase, oxidoreductase, and dehydrogenase enzymes, that may be useful in human health monitoring applications. Another embodiment of this invention allows for the modification a protein without the removal of native glycans, said native glycans that are known to be stabilizing to a protein.
Existing N-linked glycosylation involves the use of asparagine side chains as the attachment point for the glycan moiety. In one embodiment of this invention, sidechains that are traditionally non-glycosylated such as lysine, arginine, and histidine are glycosylated. Since this strategy is orthogonal to natural glycosylation methods, proteins, such as glucose oxidase that are natively glycosylated, can be further glycosylated to produce a hyper-glycosylated entity that may have beneficial characteristics including stabilization and controlled immunogenicity. Many important proteins are naturally glycosylated, and cannot be further glycosylated on other sites within the properly folded protein structure using natural and prior art methods. This invention provides a rational method to further glycosylate said proteins, thereby stabilizing glycoproteins, such as glucose oxidase, without compromising the structure and function, i.e. catalytic ability, of the protein.
One skilled in the art will recognize that protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in one or more amino acid-chain molecules. To be able to perform biological functions, proteins fold into one or more specific spatial conformations driven by a number of non-covalent interactions including hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic packing, thereby forming an ensemble. A protein may undergo reversible structural changes in performing its function, which for an enzyme includes catalytic action on a substrate or substrates to produce a product or products. A protein will not function without the correct structure. For example, an enzyme is in its substantially active form when it is able to catalyze a physical or physiochemical process, and the results of this process are observable. An enzyme is unable to perform catalysis when the structure is altered such that the enzyme is no longer able to facilitate one or more steps of the catalytic process, and is therefore deemed inactive. Activity and function depend on the proper specific spatial conformations being occupied, and observed activity is a direct indication of proper structure. Thus, modifications of a protein, including enzymes, that do not substantially alter function by definition do not substantially alter specific spatial conformations. Changes to function without changes to protein structure are mutually exclusive. The stability and therefore activity of a glycosylated or hyper-glycosylated protein relative to the starting protein can be improved, as reflected by improved longevity of the modified protein's activity. This can be quantified by kinetic and biophysical studies, including accelerated enzymatic stability studies at elevated temperatures herein. In one embodiment, the stabilized enzyme retains at least about 25% more activity compared to the starting enzyme in accelerated stability studies. In a preferred embodiment, the stabilized enzyme retains at least about 33% more activity compared to the starting enzyme in accelerated stability studies. In a more preferred embodiment, the stabilized enzyme retains at least about 50% more activity compared to the starting enzyme in accelerated stability studies. In a most preferred embodiment, the stabilized enzyme retains at least about 75% more activity compared to the starting enzyme in accelerated stability studies.
In another embodiment, the present invention is a glycosylated protein comprising a starting protein having an amino sidechain with a nucleophilic moiety glycosylated with a carbohydrate having an oxazoline moiety on the reducing end thereof, said oxazoline moiety covalently bound with said nucleophilic moiety, said glycosylated protein having a molecular weight of at least about 7500 Daltons, said glycosylated protein substantially retaining the structure and function of said starting protein. More specifically, the present glycosylated protein is a glycosylated enzyme. Preferred enzyme classes are oxidase proteins, oxidoreductase proteins, dehydrogenase proteins, and combinations thereof defined herein.
In a further embodiment, the glycosylated protein utilizes the amino sidechain of the starting protein that is selected from the group comprising the sidechains of lysine, histidine, and arginine. In a preferred embodiment, the amino acid side chain is that of lysine.
In a further embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using a carbohydrate of molecular weight of at least about 200 Daltons. In another embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using a carbohydrate of molecular weight of at least about 10000 Daltons. In another embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using a carbohydrate of molecular weight of at least about 25000 Daltons. In another embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using carbohydrate that is selected from group consisting of monosaccharides, disaccharides, linear oligosaccharides, and branched oligosaccharides as described herein.
In another embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using linear oligosaccharides such as chitin, including partially deacetylated chitin, hyaluronic acid, keratin, keratin sulfate, chondroitin, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan, dermatan sulfate, and heparin, which can achieve molecular weights as much as 5,000,000 Daltons. Preferred sizes of these oligosaccharides include, but are not limited to, those with molecular weights of at least about 500 Daltons, at least about 1,000 Daltons, at least about 1,500 Daltons, at least about 3,500 Daltons, at least about 5,000 Daltons, at least about 10,000 Daltons, at least about 20,000 Daltons, at least about 25,000 Daltons, at least about 33,000 Daltons, at least about 50,000 Daltons, and at least about 100,000 Daltons. In another embodiment, preferred sizes of these oligosaccharides include, but are not limited to, those molecular weights that are less than about 6,000 Daltons, and less than about 50,000 Daltons.
In another embodiment, the glycosylated protein is formed using branched oligosaccharides such as high-mannose N-glycans, hybrid N-glycans, and complex N-glycans that have molecular weights under 10,000 Daltons. Preferred sizes of these oligosaccharides include, but are not limited to, those with molecular weights of from about 500 Daltons to about 10,000 Daltons. A more preferred size of these oligosaccharides is from about 800 Daltons to about 5,000 Daltons. A most preferred size of these oligosaccharides is from about 800 Daltons to about 4500 Daltons.
Oligosaccharides are available in a range of molecular weights. Linear oligosaccharides based on repeating monosaccharide or disaccharide subunits, such as hyaluronic acid and the other glycosaminoglycans,27-29 may be obtained as discreet sized species or a distribution of sizes about an average molecular weight. Other linear oligosaccharides include chitin, and partially deacetylated chitin.30-31 The latter refers to chitin that has been processed to remove some or most of the N-acetyl moieties that modify the glucosamine core. The degree of deacetylation refers to the percentage of N-acetyl moieties removed, with up to 95% removal possible to retain the parent chitin identity. Removal of at least 49% of the acetyl groups within the polymer molecule is required for solubility in water. A range of molecular weights of the parent chitin and the partially deacetylated chitins are possible.
The molecular weight of a linear oligosaccharide may be obtained from a variety of direct and indirect physical characterization methods. These include, but are not limited to, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), mass spectroscopy (MS) including matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectroscopy (MALDI-MS), ultracentrifuge sedimentation, viscosity, osmotic pressure, and dynamic light scattering (DLS), all of which may be affected by the number, size, or shape of molecules in a matrix, a suspension, or in a solution.32-35 The molecular weight of high-mannose N-glycans, hybrid N-glycans, and complex N-glycans may be determined in similar manner.
For distributions of different sized oligosaccharides, weight-average molecular weight (Mw) and molecular weight distributions may be determined from ultracentrifuge sedimentation, diffusion, and light scattering. Number-average molecular weight (Mn) and molecular weight distributions may be determined from osmotic pressure and intrinsic viscosity determinations. Optical properties are best reflected in the weight-average molecular weight, while strength properties are best reflected in number-average molecular weight. Mn is the number of monomer molecules divided by the total number of molecules times the monomer mole weight. Mw is the area under the weight distribution curve that is divided into two equal parts. Mn<=Mw.
Weight-average molecular weight, is calculated by the equation
M
w={Sum[(Wi)(MW)i]}/{Sum Wi},
where Wi is the weight fraction of each size fraction and (MW)I is the mean molecular weight of the size fraction. The “weight-average” molecular weight is particularly significant in the analysis of properties such as viscosity, where the weight of the molecules is important. Number-average molecular weight is calculated by the equation
M
n={Sum[(Wi)(MW)i]}/{Sum Xi},
where the value Xi is the number of molecules in each size fraction.

Penicillium (MBP-COx1), alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), cortisol dehydrogenase (CDH), glucose dehydrogenase (GDH), L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH)] were either purchased from commercial vendors or prepared by standard recombinant over-expression techniques using published methods36 in E. coli.37 or Pichia Pastoris38-39, and purified by standard methods.40
Carbohydrates: N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc), N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), diacetylchitobiose (DACB), triacetylchitotriose (TACT), Lewis B tetrasaccharide (LewB4), native N-glycan cores Man-3 and Man-5, and hyaluronic acid polymers of various lengths including those of less than 6K Mw (HA6), and those of less than 50K Mw (HA50) were obtained from commercial sources. N-propanylglucosamine, N-n-butanylglucosamine, N-isopropanylglucosamine, N-2,2,dimethylpropanylglucosamine, N-((2-oxoethoxy)-propanyl)glucosamine were synthesized using the method of Inouye et al.41
General oxazoline formation protocol: A carbohydrate with an N-acyl-2-amino moiety at the reducing end was dissolved in deionized H2O. At least 7.5 molar equivalents of triethylamine or Na3PO4 were added until the pH was 11. Three molar equivalents of either DMC or CDMBI were added and the reaction incubated at 4° C. from 2 to 24 hours. The pH of the solution was then adjusted to pH 8-8.5 with 1 M bicine or to pH 6, 7, or 8 with 1M MES. After adjustment of pH, some oxazolines were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80° C. until use. CDMBI (2-chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-benzimidazol-3-ium chloride) was prepared according to the method of Noguchi et al.21 DMC (chloro-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium chloride) was purchased from commercial sources.
General preparation of protein: Protein was prepared for conjugation by either dissolving lyophilized protein in PBS, pH 8.0 followed by desalting via a G-50 spin column equilibrated with PBS pH 8.0, or dissolved in PBS, pH 8.0, and used directly. The protein concentration was determined by triplicate Bradford assay.42 Of the solution, the volume of solution containing from about 5 ug to 50 mg was aliquoted into a microfuge tube for use in the conjugation reaction.
General conjugation of neutralized oxazoline carbohydrate with a protein: The neutralized oxazolines and target proteins were prepared as above. The protein solution was dispensed into a microfuge tube followed by addition of about a 100 to 1000-fold molar excess of the carbohydrate oxazoline and allowed to react from 2 hours to 72 hours at 4° C. or room temperature. Up to 5 ug samples were withdrawn for SDS-PAGE gel mobility shift assay to determine reaction completeness. Novex 8% and/or 12% bis-tris SDS-PAGE gels were used with a MES-SDS running buffer. The remainder of the samples were then cryopreserved by addition of glycerol to 20% v/v, flash frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80° C.
SDS-PAGE gels were stained with PageBlue (Thermo Scientific) and destained in deionized water optionally supplemented with 1% acetic acid.37 Destained gels were visualized on an optical trans-illuminator, and the relative gel mobility evaluated based on the lagging edge of each band. Conjugated constructs derived from highly charged carbohydrate oxazolines (i.e. hyaluronic acid, the glycosaminoglycans, partially deacetylated chitin)29 may produce distortion in the band morphology, wherein the band morphology being manifest as distortion, streaking, smearing, lengthening, lightening of the stained band, formation of a chevron-shaped and/or U-shaped band, and/or extension of the band wherein the distal portions of the band display retarded mobility relative to the center of the band in the lane, and wherein the change in morphology is relative to the unconjugated protein sample band.37, 43-45
Enzymatic activity assay: Samples were thawed for assay and desalted into PBS (140 mM NaCl, 10 mM NaPO4 pH 7.4) via Sephadex G-50 spin column. The concentration of each desalted protein sample was determined by triplicate Bradford assay using previously described methods.42 Oxidase enzymes were assayed in triplicate by Amplex red peroxidase coupled assay @ RT under saturating substrate conditions using previously described methods.46-47 Dehydrogenase enzymes were assayed in triplicate by direct spectrophotometric detection of the NADH product at room temperature under saturating substrate concentrations, using previously described methods.48 Enzyme concentrations giving optical rates between 0.01 ΔA*min-1 and 0.2 ΔA*min-1 were employed for all enzymes. Mass specific activity (pmoles product*min-1*mg-1, U/mg) of each control sample and their conjugates were calculated using the experimentally determined slope of either the hydrogen peroxide standard curve (0.0308 A560*cm-1*μM-1) or the μM extinction coefficient of NADH (0.006220 A340*cm-1*μM-1), the optical rate of each assay (ΔA560*min-1), and the mass of enzyme of enzyme in mg in the assay. Data was plotted in Prism software (GraphPad).
Water bath activity study of glycan-protein conjugates: After assay, protein samples were incubated in a water bath @ 42° C. for 24-96 hours, incubated on ice for 2 minutes, then centrifuged for 10 s @ 10,000 rpm. Determination of the mass specific activity of these samples was then performed as described in previously. Specific activity values before and after thermal incubation were plotted with Prism software (GraphPad).
Fluorescence thermal shift assay (FTSA) of glycan-protein conjugates: The impact of carbohydrate conjugation on the thermal stability was evaluated by a SYPRO-Orange dye association fluorescence thermal shift assay.49 Melts were performed on each control protein and each of its respective conjugates. After activity assay, protein samples were prepared for fluorescence thermal shift assay by dilution to 0.1-5.0 μM in a 2 mL final volume with PBS supplemented with 2.5× SYPRO-Orange dye (Invitrogen). Fluorescence emission intensity was observed vs temperature in a Cary Eclipse fluorescence spectrophotometer equipped with a multi cell peltier (484 nm ex, 620 nm em, 1 sec integration time, 10 nm em/ex slit width, 1° C./minute temperature ramp rate, 0.5 C data interval, medium detector sensitivity). Data was collected from 20° C. to 85° C. or until the fluorescence intensity began to decline from its maximum. The fluorescence intensity values were normalized relative to the initial and maximum observed values and the apparent Tm determined by fitting the resulting data to a two state Boltzmann sigmoid by nonlinear regression analysis using Prism software (GraphPad).
