Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel method for the production of precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin like peptides in genetically modified yeast cells, said genetically modified yeast cells, and a method for the preparation of said yeast cells.
- heterologous proteins in yeast after transformation of yeast cells with suitable expression vectors comprising DNA sequences coding for said proteins has been successful for precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin like peptides.
- Yeasts, and especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae are preferred host microorganisms for the production of pharmaceutically valuable polypeptides due to the stable yield and safety.
- EP 341215 describes the use of a yeast strain that lacks carboxypeptidase ysc ⁇ activity for the expression of the heterologous protein hirudin. Wild-type yeast strains produce a mixture of desulphatohirudin species differing in the C-terminal sequence due to the post-translational action of endogeneous yeast proteases on the primary expression product.
- yeast mutant strains lacking carboxypeptidase ysc ⁇ activity are unable to remove amino acids from the C-terminus of heterologous proteins and therefore give rise to integral proteins.
- the use of yeast strains defective in ysc A, B, Y, and/or S activity can only partially reduce random proteolysis of foreign gene products.
- Another problem encountered in production of heterologous proteins in yeast is low yield, presumably due to proteolytic processing both in intracellular compartments and at the plasma membrane caused by aberrant processing at internal sites in the protein, e.g. secretion of human parathyroid hormone (Gabrielsen et al. Gene 90: 255-262, 1990; Rokkones et al. J. Biotechnol. 33: 293-306, 1994), and secretion of ⁇ - endorphine by S. cerevisiae (Bitter et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81 : 5330-5334, 1984).
- WO 95/23857 discloses production of recombinant human albumin (rHA) in yeast cells having a reduced level of yeast aspartyl protease 3 (Yap3p) proteolytic activity resulting in a reduction of undesired 45 kD rHA fragment, and in a 30 to 50% increased yield of recovered rHA produced by the haploid ⁇ yap3 strain compared to the rHA produced by the corresponding haploid YAP3 wild-type strain.
- Yap3p yeast aspartyl protease 3
- Bourbonnais et al. (Biochimie 76: 226-233, 1994), have shown that the YAP3 protease gene product has in vitro substrate specificity which is distinct though overlapping with the Kex2p substrate specificity, and shown that Yap3p cleaves exclusively C-terminal to arginine residues present in the prosomatostatin's putative processing sites.
- Cawley et al. (J. Biol. Chem. 271 : 4168-4176, 1996) have determined the in vitro specificity and relative efficiency of cleavage of mono- and paired-basic residue processing sites by Yap3p for a number of prohormone substrates, such as bovine proinsulin.
- the purpose of the present invention is to provide an improved method for the production of secreted precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin related peptides in a yeast expression system.
- the production of precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin related peptides by the method of the invention is increased considerably, e. g. from about 60 to about 350%, more preferably from about 100 to about 300%, compared to the production of precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin like peptides in conventional yeast expression systems, and/or, preferably, the level of proteolysis of the secreted product resulting in an inhomogeneous product is decreased considerably.
- the method according to the present invention comprises culturing a yeast which has reduced activity of Yap3p or a homologue thereof and has been transformed with a hybrid vector comprising a yeast promoter operably linked to a DNA sequence coding for a precursor of insulin, a precursor of an insulin analogue, or an insulin related peptide, and isolating said precursor of insulin, precursor an insulin analogue, or an insulin related peptide.
- the yeast cells lack Yap3p activity through disruption of the YAP3 gene.
- the yeast is S. cerevisiae which lacks a functional YAP3 gene.
- other yeast genera may have equivalent proteases, i.e. homologues of Yap3p, e. g. the genera Pichia and Kluyveromyces as shown in WO 95/23857 and Clerc et al. (J.
- a gene is regarded as a homologue, in general, if the sequence of the translation product has greater than 50% sequence identity to Yap3p.
- Komano and Fuller Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci, USA 92: 10752-10756, 1995
- Other aspartyl proteases of Saccharomyces include the gene products of PEP4, BAR1 , and of open reading frames, the sequences of which are partially homologous with the YAP3 open reading frame, such as YAP3-link (coded by GenBank ace. No.
- yeast gene names YAP3, YAP3 link, YIV 9, NO 4, and MKC 7 used herein correspond to the yeast open reading frame YLR120C, YLR121C, YIR039C, YDR349C, and YDR144C, respectively.
- the gene product of open reading frame YGL259W is included among the yeast aspartyl proteases.
- yeasts examples include Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces kluyveri, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Kluyveromyces lactis, Hansenula polymorpha, Pichia pastoris, Pichia methanolica, Pichia kluyveri, Yarrowia lipolytica, Candida sp., Candida utilis, Candida cacaoi, Geotrichum sp., and Geotrichum fermentans.
- a suitable means of eliminating the activity of a protease is to disrupt the host gene encoding the protease, thereby generating a non-reverting strain missing all or part of the gene for the protease including regulatory and/or coding regions, or, alternatively, the activity can be reduced or eliminated by classical mutagenesis procedures or by the introduction of specific point mutations.
- Other methods which may be suitable for down regulation of the protease include the introduction of antisense and/or ribozyme constructs in the yeast, e.g. Atkins et al. (Antisense and Development 5: 295-305, 1995) and Nasr et al. (Mol. Gen Genet 249: 51-57, 1995).
- the precursors of insulin, precursors of insulin analogues, and insulin related peptides may be of human origin or from other animals and recombinant or semisynthetic sources.

- precursors of insulin or precursors of insulin analogues we include all precursors of human insulin, preferably precursors of des(B30) human insulin, porcine insulin, and insulin analogues wherein at least one Lys or Arg is present.
- preferred insulin analogues among those in which a Lys or Arg is present are insulin analogues in which Phe B1 has been deleted, insulin analogues in which the A-chain and/or the B- chain have an N-terminal extension and insulin analogues in which the A-chain and/or the B-chain have a C-terminal extension.
- a parent insulin may instead of Asn have an amino acid residue selected from the group comprising Ala, Gin, Glu, Gly, His, lie, Leu, Met, Ser, Thr, Trp, Tyr or Val, in particular an amino acid residue selected from the group comprising Gly, Ala, Ser, and Thr.
- Precursors of insulin analogues produced according to the method of the present invention may also be modified by a combination of changes outlined above.
- a parent insulin precursor may instead of Pro have an amino acid residue selected from the group comprising Asp or Lys and in position B29 a parent insulin precursor may instead of Lys have the amino acid Pro.
- Futhermore by "precursors of insulin analogue” as used herein is meant a peptide having a molecular structure similar to that of human insulin precursor including the di- sulphide bridges between Cys A7 and Cys B7 and between Cys* 20 and Cys B19 and an internal disulphide bridge between Cys A6 and Cys A1 ⁇ and which can be processed to a polypeptide having insulin activity.
- a codable amino acid residue designates an amino acid residue which can be coded for by the genetic code, i. e. a triplet ("codon") of nucleotides.
- the insulin related polypeptides are IGF-1 (insulin " like growth factor-1) and insulin single-chain hybrids, such as the SC hybrid, which designates a polypeptide consisting of the insulin B- and A-chains connected by the IGF-I C-peptide, cf. Kristensen et al. (Biochem J. 305: 981-986, 1995), and WO95/16708, and the insulin single-chain hybrids described in EP 741188.
- a second aspect of the invention provides a culture of yeast cells containing a polynucleotide sequence, preferably a first DNA sequence, encoding a precursor of insulin, a precursor of insulin analogues, or insulin related peptides, and a second polynucleotide sequence, preferably a second DNA sequence, encoding a secretion signal causing said precursor of insulin, precursor of insulin analogues, or insulin like peptides to be secreted from the yeast, characterized in that the yeast cells have reduced Yap3 protease activity.

- the culture of yeast cells according to the invention is haploid or polyploid, preferably diploid.
- the DNA encoding the precursor of insulin, precursor of insulin analogue, or insulin related peptide may be joined to a wide variety of other DNA sequences for introduction into an appropriate host.
- the companion DNA will depend upon the nature of the host, the manner of the introduction of the DNA into the host, and whether episomal maintenance or integration on host chromosome is desired.
- the DNA is inserted into an expression vector, such as a plasmid, in proper orientation and correct reading frame for expression.
- the vector is then introduced into the host through standard techniques and, generally, it will be necessary to select for transformed host cells.
- the DNA is inserted into an yeast integration plasmid vector, such as pJJ215, pJJ250, pJJ236, pJJ248, pJJ242 (Jones & Prakash, Yeast 6: 363,1990) or pDP6 (Fleig et al.
