Definitions
- the present invention relates to a preparation of human serum albumin, a process for obtaining it, and its uses.
- Human serum albumin is a non-glycosylated monomeric protein of 585 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 66 KD. Its globular structure is maintained by 17 disulfide bridges which create a sequential series of 9 double loops (Brown, JR, "Albumin Structure, Function and Uses", Rosenoer, VM et al. (Eds.) Pergamon Press, Oxford, (1977) 27-51).
- the genes encoding HSA are known to be highly polymorphic, and more than 30 apparently different genetic variants have been identified by electrophoretic analysis under various conditions (Weitkamp, LR et al., Ann. Hum. Genêt. 37 (1973) 219 -226).
- the SAH gene is cut into 15 exons by 14 intronic sequences and comprises 16 961 nucleotides, from the supposed "capping" site to the first poly (A) addition site.
- Human albumin is synthesized in hepatocytes of the liver, then secreted into the blood stream. This synthesis initially leads to a precursor, prepro-SAH, which contains a signal sequence of 18 amino acids directing the nascent polypeptide in the secretory pathway.
- HSA is the most abundant protein in the blood, with a concentration of around 40 g per liter of serum. There are therefore approximately 160 g of albumin circulating in the human body at any time.
- the most important role of HSA is to maintain normal osmolarity of blood flow. It also has an exceptional binding capacity for various substances and plays a role both in the endogenous transport of hydrophobic molecules (such as steroids and bile salts) and in that of various therapeutic substances which can thus be transported to their sites of 'respective action.
- hydrophobic molecules such as steroids and bile salts
- HSA has recently been implicated in the catabolism of prostaglandins.
- SAH represents 40% of the world plasma protein market.
- HSA available on the market has been produced by purification from biological material of human origin. In particular, it is obtained by conventional techniques for fractionating plasma from blood donations (Cohn et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 68 (1946) 459 pp), or by extraction from the human placenta, according to the technique described by J. Liautaud et al. (13th IABS International Congress, Budapest; A: "Purification of proteins. Development of biological standard", Karger (ed.), Baie, 27 (1973) 107 pp).
- the first genetic engineering experiments used the bacterium E. coli as the host organism.
- European patents EP 236 210, EP 200 590, EP 198 745, or EP 1 929 describe methods of producing HSA in E.coli using different expression vectors, different transcriptional promoters, and different secretion signals .
- work concerning the secretion of SAH in Bacillus subtilis was also carried out, even if the albumin levels obtained in this system do not yet seem satisfactory (Saunders et al., J. Bacteriol. 169 (1987) 2917).
- recombinant HSA must have the physicochemical properties of native albumin and comply with certain criteria of homogeneity, purity, and stability.
- the pharmacopoeia sets a number of parameters for plasma albumin solutions, namely a pH value, a protein content, a polymer and aggregate content, an alkaline phosphatase, potassium, sodium content and a certain protein composition. It also imposes a certain absorbance, compliance with a sterility test, a pyrogen and toxicity test (see "Albumini humani solutio" European Pharmacopoeia (1984) 255).
- Examples B1 and B2 of the present application illustrate the problem of coloration in the case of an expression system using, under the conditions of the prior art, a yeast as host organism.
- Example B1 is not restrictive but illustrates a coloration phenomenon which has been observed for all the strains tested, regardless of the fermentation mode adopted (fed-batch, batch, continuous). Furthermore, despite the numerous efforts made to this end, this staining could never be removed by purification (see example B2).
- One aspect of the invention is to provide a good quality recombinant HSA preparation, having the properties of extraction HSA, and usable in the pharmaceutical field.
- one aspect of the invention is to provide a recombinant HSA preparation having, after purification by known methods (concentration, precipitation, chromatography, etc.), a colorimetric index of less than 0.2.
- An objective of the invention is to allow the production in industrial quantities and at an economically profitable level of a recombinant HSA preparation which can be used pharmaceutically.
- the Applicant has now shown that it is possible to obtain an uncolored HSA solution in industrial quantities by the recombinant route.
- the present invention is based on the demonstration that the quality of the HSA produced is not only linked to the host or to the vector chosen, or to the process for purifying HSA from the medium, but largely to the very composition of the production environment.
- recombinant SAH solutions having a colorimetric index of less than 0.2 could be obtained.
- a first object of the invention therefore resides in a human serum albumin characterized in that it has a colorimetric index of less than 0.2 and in that it results from the expression in a eukaryotic or prokaryotic host of an exogenous DNA sequence.
- the present invention provides for the first time a recombinant SAH having a colorimetric index of less than 0.2. It thus provides a recombinant SAH usable in the pharmaceutical field, with very low risks of immunogenic reactions.
- the HSA of the invention offers the advantage of being homogeneous and of perfectly defined composition. Indeed, due to its polymorphism, many variants of HSA exist. Thus, among those which have been identified, certain variants retain a pro-substituted peptide (Brennen and Carrell, Nature 274 (1978) 908; Galliano et al., Rev. Fr. Transfus. Immuno-Hematol.
- plasma HSA obtained by extraction of biological material from a very large number of human donors potentially contains all variants of HSA resulting from its polymorphism.
- the present invention provides a homogeneous and defined SAH, due to its preparation by genetic means, by expression of one or more identified DNA sequences.
- the SAH of the present invention has a colorimetric index of less than 0.15.
- the SAH of the present invention has a colorimetric index of less than 0.1.
- Example B5 Other physicochemical characteristics of the HSA of the present invention are given in Example B5, namely in particular its spectrum of fluorescence. All of these parameters testify to the quality of the HSA of the invention.
- exogenous DNA sequence means any DNA sequence artificially introduced into the host used and coding for HSA.
- they may be genomic sequences, cDNA, hybrid sequences, etc.
- a cDNA Such sequences have already been described in the prior art (cf. in particular EP 361 991 and Dugaiczyk et al., J. Supramol. Struct. & Cell Biochem., Suppl. 5 (1981)).
- this exogenous DNA generally comprises a region for initiating transcription and translation joined to the 5 ′ terminal end of the coding sequence, so as to direct and regulate the transcription and translation of said sequence. The choice of these promoter regions can vary depending on the host used.
- the exogenous DNA preferably forms part of a vector, which can be autonomously replicating or integrative. More particularly, autonomously replicating vectors can be prepared using autonomously replicating sequences in the chosen host.
- autonomously replicating vectors can be prepared using autonomously replicating sequences in the chosen host.
- these may be replication origins derived from plasmids: pKD1 (EP 241,435), 2 ⁇ (Beggs, Nature 275 (1978) 104-109), etc; or else chromosomal sequences (ARS).
- pKD1 EP 241,435
- 2 ⁇ Beggs, Nature 275 (1978) 104-109
- ARS chromosomal sequences
- the integrative vectors these can be prepared for example by using sequences homologous to certain regions of the host genome, allowing, by homologous recombination, the integration of the vector.
- the use of rDNA allows multiple integration of exogenous DNA, and therefore its presence in greater number of copies per cell.
- the SAH of the invention results from the expression in a eukaryotic or prokaryotic host of an exogenous DNA sequence and from the secretion of the expression product of said sequence in the culture medium. It is in fact particularly advantageous to be able to obtain, recombinantly, a pharmaceutical grade HSA directly in the culture medium.
- the exogenous DNA sequence comprises, upstream of the sequence coding for SAH, or, where appropriate, between the region of initiation of transcription and translation and the coding sequence, a "leader" sequence. directing the emerging protein in host secretion pathways used.
- This "leader” sequence can be the natural "leader” sequence of HSA, but it can also be a heterologous sequence (derived from a gene coding for another protein) or even artificial. The choice of one of these sequences is notably guided by the host used. As an example, when the host used is a yeast, it is possible to use as heterologous "leader” sequence that of the factor ⁇ pheromone, of invertase or of acid phosphatase.
- yeasts examples include animal cells, yeasts, or fungi.
- yeasts mention may be made of yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces. Kluyveromyces. Pichia pastoris. Schwanniomyces. or Hansenula.
- animal cells mention may be made of COS, CHO, C127 cells, etc.
- fungi capable of being used in the present invention there may be mentioned more particularly Aspergillus ssp. or Trichoderma ssp.
- Another subject of the invention relates to a process for the preparation of SAH having a colorimetric index of less than 0.2, according to which the following steps are carried out:
- an exogenous DNA coding for human serum albumin is introduced into a eukaryotic or prokaryotic host cell under the control of transcription and translation signals appropriate to the host used,
- the cell thus obtained is cultured in a medium of defined composition containing at least one carbon source chosen from alcohols, non-reducing sugars, organic acids or glucose derivatives substituted on carbon oxygen C4; or in a medium prepared so as to eliminate or limit the formation of impurities of aldehyde type, and,
- the HSA produced is recovered.
- the exogenous DNA can be introduced into the host cell by various techniques.
- the introduction can be carried out by transformation, conjugation, or electroporation.

In particular, it can be carried out by treating the whole cells in the presence of lithium acetate and of polyethylene glycol according to the technique described by Ito et al. (J. Bacteriol. 153. (1983) 163-168), or in the presence of ethylene glycol and dimethylsulfoxide according to the technique of Durrens et al. (Curr. Genêt. 18 (1990) 7).
- An alternative protocol has also been described in patent application EP 361 991.
- the transformation can be carried out according to the technique described by Dagert at al. (Gene 6 (1979) 23-28) by treatment with a solution of CaCl2 then thermal shock.

- the exogenous DNA comprises, upstream of the sequence coding for mature SAH, a sequence "leader” directing the nascent protein into the secretion pathways of the host used.
- a sequence "leader” directing the nascent protein into the secretion pathways of the host used.
- the exogenous DNA preferably forms part of a vector, which can be autonomous or integrative replication, as indicated above.
- the production process is characterized in that the SAH is secreted into the culture medium. It is in fact particularly advantageous to be able to obtain, recombinantly, a pharmaceutical grade HSA directly in the culture medium.
- the second step of the method of the invention consists in culturing the recombinant cells under conditions allowing the expression of the exogenous DNA sequence coding for HSA. This step is particularly important since it directly influences the quantity and quality of the HSA produced.
- the present invention describes for the first time culture conditions allowing the production of a pharmaceutical grade serum albumin.
- the alcohols which can be used in the process of the invention, mention may preferably be made of simple alcohols having at least 2 carbon atoms (ethanol, etc.), or polyalcohols (glycerol, sorbitol, etc.).

- Various means can be used to limit the formation of such impurities, the choice of which depends on the medium ( nature of the carbon source) and the host considered.
- the third step of the invention makes it possible to extract the produced HSA from the culture medium.
- this extraction can be carried out directly from the culture supernatant obtained by centrifugation.
- This preliminary step can be carried out by various physical or physicochemical means (sonication, grinding, osmotic shock, thermal shock, etc.).

Enzym., 155 (1987) 335-350) and Saiki and al (Science 230 (1985) 1350-1354), using a "DNA thermal cycler" (Perkin Elmer Cetus) following the manufacturer's recommendations.
- Plasmid pYG401 A vector for expression of human serum albumin was prepared from the plasmid pYG19 (EP 361 991). The latter includes the following:
- a cassette for expression of human serum albumin comprising the structural gene coding for the prepro form under the control of the gene promoter
- PGK of S.cerevisiae - a bacterial replicon and a selection marker (bla gene conferring resistance to ampicillin); and,
- the vector pYG401 was constructed from the plasmid pYG19 by modification at the level of the expression cassette for human serum albumin.
- the albumin gene is no longer under the control of the promoter of the PGK gene of S. cerevisiae. but under the control of a hybrid promoter between the promoters of the PGK and GAL1 / GAL10 genes of S. cerevisiae.
- This hybrid promoter was obtained by replacing the UAS (Upstream Activating Sequence) region of the PGK promoter (Stanway et al., Nucl.Acid.Res.
- This hybrid promoter was constructed in the following manner (see FIG. 1):
- This plasmid comprises the promoter of the PGK gene from S.cerevisiae isolated from the plasmid pYG19 in the form of a SalI-HindIII fragment, and cloned into the bacteriophage M13mpl8. It was then modified by site-directed mutagenesis to introduce the following restriction sites:
- the promoter UAS GAL1 / GAL10 was isolated from the plasmid pG1 described by Miyajima et al. (Nucl. Acid. Res 12 (1984) 6397-6414; Cloning Vectors, Pouwels et al., - Elsevier (1985) VT-B-ii-2). This plasmid is deposited at ATCC under number 37305.
- Plasmid pG1 has a 0.8 kb fragment containing the promoter
- This fragment was excised from pG1, purified, then digested with the enzymes Rsal and AluI, the respective cleavage sites of which are located on either side of the UAS region.

- the K1ADH4 promoter was obtained by screening a library of total genomic DNA from Kluyveromyces lactis CBS2359 / 152 using a heterologous probe originating from the ADH2 gene of S. cerevisiae. More specifically, the library was obtained by cloning at the BamHI site of the replacement vector Lambda-L47 of the product of a partial digestion with the enzyme Sau3A of the DNA of K. lactis CBS2359 / 152.
- the probe used for the hybridization is a 980 bp EcoRV-BamHI fragment comprising the coding region of the structural gene ADH2 from S. cerevisiae. except for the first 70 bp (probe A).
- This fragment is obtained by enzymatic digestion from a plasmid named pBR322.ADR2.BSa (Williamson et al., Cell 23. (1981) 605-614; Russell et al., J. Biol.Chem.258 (1983) 2674-2682).
- An approximately 8 kb fragment was thus isolated and subcloned at the BamHI site of the plasmid pBR322 to generate the plasmid p6-4-98 (FIG. 3).

- BamHI-EcoRV of approximately 1100 bp of the plasmid pBR322.ADR2.BSa (probe B).
- the plasmid p6-4-98 was digested with the enzyme HindIII and a 2.2 kb fragment was isolated. This fragment was then purified by standard techniques and subcloned to the HindIII site of the plasmid pTZ19 to generate the plasmid p6-2200-2 ( Figure 3). Analysis of the subcloned fragment reveals that it contains the first 14 codons of the K1ADH4 gene and the region situated upstream thereof, comprising the elements for regulating expression.

- the plasmid pIC20H (Marsh et al., Gene 32 (1984) 481) was digested with Bgi ⁇ and EcoRI so as to introduce adapter 3.
- This adapter which provides the EcoRI, BssHII, Clal, Nhel, MluI and BglII sites was obtained as described above (2. (a) (ii)), by hybridization of the oligodeoxynucleotides E and F (FIG. 12).
- the resulting plasmid is called pYG1002.
- the K. lactis PGK gene was introduced into this new plasmid in the form of a ClaI-Nhel fragment, derived from the plasmid pYG600.
- the plasmid obtained is called pYG1003 ( Figure 14).
- PGK from K. lactis was then introduced into the corresponding sites on the plasmid pYG70-3, to generate the plasmid pYG70-4 (FIG. 15).
- the plasmids ⁇ YG70-4 ( Figure 15) and pKD1 (EP 361 991) were digested with Sphl and ligated together in the presence of ligase. At the end of this ligation, 4 vectors can be obtained, depending on the conformation of the plasmid pKD1 (form A or form B) and the orientation of the part corresponding to the plasmid pYG70-4 relative to pKD1.
- This vector includes:
- a cassette for expression of human serum albumin comprising the structural gene coding for the prepro form under the control of the inducible promoter of the LAC4 gene from K. lactis. and the terminator of the PGK gene of S. cerevisiae.
- the culture was carried out in a 2 liter fermenter at 28 ° C in fed-batch mode. Initially, the fermenter contains 0.7 liters of base medium (glucose 2 g / l, yeast extract 3 g / l, salts). A culture of 50 ml in exponential growth phase (inoculated from a frozen suspension) is used to inoculate the fermenter. After a preliminary batch-type growth phase, the additional charge (glucose, corn steep, ammonium salts: 40% / 13% / 7% [w / v]) is added exponentially. After 64 hours of culture, the must is centrifuged and the supernatant microfiltered on a 2 ⁇ membrane.
- the purification protocol includes an affinity chromatography step on Bleu Trisacryl (IBF, France) from which the albumin is eluted by a high salt concentration (3.5 M NaCl), then, after concentration and diafiltration, a passage on a Q-Sepharose "fast flow” ion exchanger.
- the HSA thus purified has a homogeneous band in SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and is not distinguished from natural albumin taken as a reference in many biochemical characterization tests.
- BCQ 759 50 mg are denatured by incubation in 2 ml of 7M guanidine-HCl and 0.3M of ⁇ -mercaptoethanol. This solution is heated for 1 hour at 100 ° C. After cooling, 500 ⁇ l of denatured rSAH are injected onto a TSK 3000SW column balanced with 8M urea and 0.3M ⁇ -mercaptoethanol to remove the small molecules which could be strongly (but not covalently) attached to SAH.
- the media tested consist of a basic medium Bo defined as follows: Ammonium acetate salts 7 g / l
- E10 Bo + lactose 10 g / l + glucose 10 g / l
- the recombinant albumin produced after 72 hours of culture in batch mode in 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks at 28 ° C. is purified on a Mono Q anion exchange column.
