The B7-1 Cytoplasmic Tail Enhances Intracellular Transport and Mammalian Cell Surface Display of Chimeric Proteins in the Absence of a Linear ER Export Motif

Abstract: Membrane-tethered proteins (mammalian surface display) are increasingly being used for novel therapeutic and biotechnology applications. Maximizing surface expression of chimeric proteins on mammalian cells is important for these applications. We show that the cytoplasmic domain from the B7-1 antigen, a commonly used element for mammalian surface display, can enhance the intracellular transport and surface display of chimeric proteins in a Sar1 and Rab1 dependent fashion. However, mutational, alanine scanning … Show more

“…The different elements of the AS construct can be modified in order to modulate the levels of secreted and membranebound antibody. The replacement of the M1M2 domain by B7-1, a murine transmembrane domain often used for the construction of chimeric transmembrane proteins and known to lead to high surface display of chimeric proteins, [65][66][67] did not affect the secretion level, but increased the surface staining. This increased staining may be due to favorable folding characteristics of B7-1 compared to the M1M2 domain or to enhanced stability of the chimeric construct.…”

“…PTCRA was used because the T-cell receptors are structurally similar to immunoglobulins and the murine B7-1 transmembrane domain because it has been described to allow efficient secretion of transmembrane chimeric proteins. [65][66][67] Whereas the secretion level was not improved compared to the initial M1M2 transmembrane domain construct, a substantial impact was seen on the surface staining, with B7-1 allowing the highest level of surface display, with 5x more cells stained and an increase of the mean fluorescent signal of 30x (Figure 2a and b).…”

“…Implementation of these strategies has been facilitated by a fusion protein in which the two IL-12 subunits are linked by a polypeptide connector, permitting expression of IL-12 from a single open reading frame. 18 In humans, tumor-directed therapy has principally been achieved by intratumoral injection [22][23][24][25][26][27] or by T-cell-mediated delivery, as in one clinical trial. 14 Various methods to improve IL-12-based therapy by controlling gene expression have also been proposed, including the use of an NFAT promoter 16 28 or a smallmolecule gene-activation system.…”

“…To enhance cell surface expression of membrane-tethered proteins, design strategies have focused on the careful selection of the TM, the cytoplasmic tail and the extracellular juxtamembrane linker [15]. Elements such as the transmembrane domain and the cytoplasmic tail of the murine B7-1 antigen and the hinge-CH 2 -CH 3 region of the human immunoglobulin G (IgG 1 ) heavy chain have been established to enhance protein expression on the cell surface [16, 17]. While the minimum sequences required to target specific proteins such as the respiratory syncytial virus F protein [18] and the SNARE protein SNAP-25 [19] have been elucidated in independent studies previously, these specific minimum sequences could differ between target proteins.…”
