Conformational and Thermal Stability Improvements for the Large-Scale Production of Yeast-Derived Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus-Like Particles as Multipurpose Vaccine

Abstract: Recombinant virus-like particles (VLP) antigenically similar to rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) were recently expressed at high levels inside Pichia pastoris cells. Based on the potential of RHDV VLP as platform for diverse vaccination purposes we undertook the design, development and scale-up of a production process. Conformational and stability issues were addressed to improve process control and optimization. Analyses on the structure, morphology and antigenicity of these multimers were carried out … Show more

“…Optimization of the induction phase methanol concentration and the batch phase time, as well as inclusion of a glycerol transition phase, resulted in the maximum NoV VP1‐NY‐ESO‐1 yield of 0.85 g L −1 . Previous work in the area of optimization of recombinant VLP production reported yields ranging from 0.18 g L −1 in E. coli to 0.3 g L −1 in P. pastoris . The almost three‐fold increase in yield presented here represents a major advance compared to these previous reports.…”

“…In other words, Seq 8-P222 seems to be stable for more than 6 weeks without cold chain requirements and this represents a very attractive property for a vaccine. Moreover, the proteins were tested without any formulation and thus we could speculate that these periods could be extended with an adequate adjuvant formulation as reported previously [ 36 , 37 ]. It is worth noting that the instability of Seq 8-P216 could be due to the fluctuations in the Seq 8 subunit predicted in the flexibility analysis (Fig.…”

“…These particles are suitable for mucosal immunization due to their resistance to proteolytic degradation and compatibility with mucosal environment [129]. Yeast VLP scaffolds have been used to display immunogenic antigens from pathogens such as porcine circovirus [130], rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus [131], coxsackievirus A6 [132], hepatitis B virus [133], Zika virus [128], chikungunya virus [134], dengue virus [135], enterovirus [127,136].…”
