Generation of a biologically active, secreted form of human thyroid peroxidase by site-directed mutagenesis

Using site-directed mutagenesis, we introduced two stop codons immediately upstream of the putative transmembrane domain in human thyroid peroxidase (hTPO) cDNA, truncating the carboxyl terminus of hTPO (933 amino acids) by 85 residues. Mutated hTPO cDNA, inserted into a eukaryotic expression vector, was stably transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Immunoprecipitation of cellular 35S-methionine-labeled proteins with Hashimoto's serum revealed a 105-101 kilodalton doublet. In contrast, cells transfected with wild-type hTPO yielded a 112-105 kilodalton doublet. In pulse-chase experiments, CHO cells expressing the truncated hTPO protein secreted immunoprecipitable TPO into the culture medium after 4 h of chase, with levels accumulating progressively over a 24-h period. In contrast, CHO cells expressing wild-type hTPO released no immunoprecipitable TPO into the culture medium. The secreted, truncated form of hTPO appeared as a single band of lesser electrophoretic mobility, as opposed to the doublet expressed within cells. TPO enzymatic activity was present in conditioned media from CHO cells transfected with the mutated hTPO, but was absent in media from cells expressing wild-type hTPO. The stability of the mutated protein appeared similar to that of wild-type hTPO. In summary, we have generated a mutated, secreted form of hTPO that is enzymatically active and immunologically intact. Our data confirm the existence of a transmembrane domain in hTPO, and that hTPO is predominantly an enzyme with an extracellular orientation. The secreted form of hTPO has the potential for generating large amounts of soluble TPO protein for use in future structural and immunological studies.     

C-terminal region of hTPO is important for secretion and expression in insect cells.

Human thrombopoietin (hTPO) variant cDNAs truncated in the C-terminal regions of wild-type hTPO (332 amino acids) were constructed by PCR and expressed in Trichoplusia ni (Tn5) insect cells using a baculovirus expression system. Each variant, hTPO163 (amino acids 1-163), hTPO198 (1-198) and hTPO245 (1-245), was produced in insect cells with very low efficiency in comparison with wild-type hTPO. Immunoblot analysis showed that the predicted 20, 25 and 34 kDa molecular sizes corresponding to hTPO163, hTPO198 and hTPO245, respectively, were barely detected in culture medium and most of the proteins remained within the cell. These results suggest that C-terminal regions containing potential N-glycosylation sites of hTPO are required for the secretion of hTPO into culture medium as well as expression in insect cells.

In vitro and in vivo transfection and expression of plasmid-based non-viral vector for erythropoietin gene therapy

A non-viral gene therapy vector, pcDNA3-EPO, was constructed by subcloning erythropoietin (EPO) cDNA into plasmid pcDNA3. After liposome-mediated transfection of the NIH 3T3 cells in vitro, EPO expression in the culture medium was detected by ELISA and amounted to 1.25 ± 0.3 IU ml^–1. The biological activity of this EPO in the medium was detected after intramuscular injection of BALB/c mice. PCR of genomic DNA and RT-PCR of total RNA also confirmed that the plasmid pcDNA3-EPO had been transfected into the cells. A pool of pcDNA3-EPO transfectants, which stably expressed EPO, was obtained by G418 selection. When pcDNA3-EPO was combined into liposomes and intramuscularly injected into BALB/c mice, the reticulocyte ratio in the positive mice was three times higher than that in the control mice. In vivo expression was maintained in mice for at least one month.

Effect of sodium butyrate on the production, heterogeneity and biological activity of human thrombopoietin by recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cells

Human thrombopoietin (hTPO) is a heavily glycosylated protein with 6 and 24 potential N- and O-glycosylation sites, respectively. To determine the effect of sodium butyrate (NaBu) on the production and quality of hTPO in recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells, NaBu (0-10 mM) was added to the cultures of exponentially growing cells. NaBu addition significantly increased both the specific and volumetric hTPO production, although it decreased the cell viability by apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. The highest hTPO concentration of 82.2 +/- 5.6 microgml-1 was obtained in the culture with 3 mM NaBu addition. Compared with the culture without NaBu addition, the culture with 3 mM NaBu resulted in a 6.4-fold increase in qTPO and a 3.3-fold increase in the final hTPO concentration on day 7. However, NaBu deteriorated the quality of hTPO, resulting from increased heterogeneity, reduced acidic hTPO isoforms, reduced alpha(2 --> 3) sialylation, and decreased in vivo biological activity. We also found that the biological activity of hTPO in the culture with 3 mM NaBu addition collected on day 7 was 72% of that in the culture without NaBu addition. Taken together, the use of NaBu or its optimal concentration for high-level expression of a heavily glycosylated protein like hTPO should be determined by considering its detrimental effect on the quality of glycoprotein.
