Molecular evolution of peptides by yeast surface display technology.

ABSTRACT: Genetically encoded peptides possess unique properties, such as a small molecular weight and ease of synthesis and modification, that make them suitable to a large variety of applications. However, despite these favorable qualities, naturally occurring peptides are often limited by intrinsic weak binding affinities, poor selectivity and low stability that ultimately restrain their final use. To overcome these limitations, a large variety of in vitro display methodologies have been developed over the past few decades to evolve genetically encoded peptide molecules with superior properties. Phage display, mRNA display, ribosome display, bacteria display, and yeast display are among the most commonly used methods to engineer peptides. While most of these in vitro methodologies have already been described in detail elsewhere, this review describes solely the yeast surface display technology and its valuable use for the evolution of a wide range of peptide formats.

Display of Single-Chain Insulin-like Peptides on a Yeast Surface.

Project description:Insulin and insulin-like peptides play a pivotal role in a wide variety of cellular and physiological events, including energy storage, proliferation, aging, and differentiation. Variants of insulin and insulin-like peptides may therefore be probes for studying the insulin signaling pathway and therapeutic candidates for treating metabolic diseases. Here, we report a method for genetically displaying single-chain insulin-like peptides on the surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain DY1632. Using a previously reported single-chain insulin analogue, SCI-57, as a model, we demonstrate that nearly 70% of yeast binds to insulin receptor (IR), suggesting that SCI-57 is folded correctly and maintains its IR binding property. Furthermore, the interaction between displayed SCI-57 and IR can be weakened using increasing concentrations of native insulin as a soluble competitor, suggesting that the interaction is insulin-dependent. We further applied this methodology to three other single-chain insulin analogues with various lengths and confirmed their interactions with IR. In summary, we successfully displayed a number of insulin-like peptides on a yeast surface and demonstrated insulin-dependent interactions with IR. This method may, therefore, be used for construction of libraries of insulin-like peptides to select for chemical probes or therapeutic molecules.

Beyond antibody engineering: directed evolution of alternative binding scaffolds and enzymes using yeast surface display.

Project description:Pioneered exactly 20 years ago, yeast surface display (YSD) continues to take a major role in protein engineering among the high-throughput display methodologies that have been developed to date. The classical yeast display technology relies on tethering an engineered protein to the cell wall by genetic fusion to one subunit of a dimeric yeast-mating agglutination receptor complex. This method enables an efficient genotype-phenotype linkage while exploiting the benefits of a eukaryotic expression machinery. Over the past two decades, a plethora of protein engineering efforts encompassing conventional antibody Fab and scFv fragments have been reported. In this review, we will focus on the versatility of YSD beyond conventional antibody engineering and, instead, place the focus on alternative scaffold proteins and enzymes which have successfully been tailored for purpose with regard to improving binding, activity or specificity.

Prompting Fab Yeast Surface Display Efficiency by ER Retention and Molecular Chaperon Co-expression.

Project description:For antibody discovery and engineering, yeast surface display (YSD) of antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) and coupled fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) provide intact paratopic conformations and quantitative analysis at the monoclonal level, and thus holding great promises for numerous applications. Using anti-TNF? mAbs Infliximab, Adalimumab, and its variants as model Fabs, this study systematically characterized complementary approaches for the optimization of Fab YSD. Results suggested that by using divergent promoter GAL1-GAL10 and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) signal peptides for co-expression of light chain and heavy chain-Aga2 fusion, assembled Fabs were functionally displayed on yeast cell surface with sigmoidal binding responses toward TNF?. Co-expression of a Hsp70 family molecular chaperone Kar2p and/or protein-disulfide isomerase (Pdi1p) significantly improved efficiency of functional display (defined as the ratio of cells displaying functional Fab over cells displaying assembled Fab). Moreover, fusing ER retention sequences (ERSs) with light chain also enhanced Fab display quality at the expense of display quantity, and the degree of improvements was correlated with the strength of ERSs and was more significant for Infliximab than Adalimumab. The feasibility of affinity maturation was further demonstrated by isolating a high affinity Fab clone from 1:103 or 1:105 spiked libraries.

Structure and computation-guided yeast surface display for the evolution of TIMP-based matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors.

Project description:The study of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and the engineering of protein-based inhibitors often employ two distinct strategies. One approach leverages the power of combinatorial libraries, displaying large ensembles of mutant proteins, for example, on the yeast cell surface, to select binders. Another approach harnesses computational modeling, sifting through an astronomically large number of protein sequences and attempting to predict the impact of mutations on PPI binding energy. Individually, each approach has inherent limitations, but when combined, they generate superior outcomes across diverse protein engineering endeavors. This synergistic integration of approaches aids in identifying novel binders and inhibitors, fine-tuning specificity and affinity for known binding partners, and detailed mapping of binding epitopes. It can also provide insight into the specificity profiles of varied PPIs. Here, we outline strategies for directing the evolution of tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), which act as natural inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). We highlight examples wherein design of combinatorial TIMP libraries using structural and computational insights and screening these libraries of variants using yeast surface display (YSD), has successfully optimized for MMP binding and selectivity, and conferred insight into the PPIs involved.

Yeast surface display for protein engineering and characterization.

Project description:Yeast surface display is being employed to engineer desirable properties into proteins for a broad variety of applications. Labeling with soluble ligands enables rapid and quantitative analysis of yeast-displayed libraries by flow cytometry, while cell-surface selections allow screening of libraries with insoluble or even as-yet-uncharacterized binding targets. In parallel, the utilization of yeast surface display for protein characterization, including in particular the mapping of functional epitopes mediating protein-protein interactions, represents a significant recent advance.

Cell surface display of functional human MHC class II proteins: yeast display versus insect cell display.

Project description:Reliable and robust systems for engineering functional major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) proteins have proved elusive. Availability of such systems would enable the engineering of peptide-MHCII (pMHCII) complexes for therapeutic and diagnostic applications. In this paper, we have developed a system based on insect cell surface display that allows functional expression of heterodimeric DR2 molecules with or without a covalently bound human myelin basic protein (MBP) peptide, which is amenable to directed evolution of DR2-MBP variants with improved T cell receptor (TCR)-binding affinity. This study represents the first example of functional display of human pMHCII complexes on insect cell surface. In the process of developing this pMHCII engineering system, we have also explored the potential of using yeast surface display for the same application. Our data suggest that yeast display is a useful system for analysis and engineering of peptide binding of MHCII proteins, but not suitable for directed evolution of pMHC complexes that bind with low affinity to self-reactive TCRs.

Efficient yeast surface-display of novel complex synthetic cellulosomes.

Project description:BackgroundThe self-assembly of cellulosomes on the surface of yeast is a promising strategy for consolidated bioprocessing to convert cellulose into ethanol in one step.ResultsIn this study, we developed a novel synthetic cellulosome that anchors to the endogenous yeast cell wall protein a-agglutinin through disulfide bonds. A synthetic scaffoldin ScafAGA3 was constructed using the repeated N-terminus of Aga1p and displayed on the yeast cell surface. Secreted cellulases were then fused with Aga2p to assemble the cellulosome. The display efficiency of the synthetic scaffoldin and the assembly efficiency of each enzyme were much higher than those of the most frequently constructed cellulosome using scaffoldin ScafCipA3 from Clostridium thermocellum. A complex cellulosome with two scaffoldins was also constructed using interactions between the displayed anchoring scaffoldin ScafAGA3 and scaffoldin I ScafCipA3 through disulfide bonds, and the assembly of secreted cellulases to ScafCipA3. The newly designed cellulosomes enabled yeast to directly ferment cellulose into ethanol.ConclusionsThis is the first report on the development of complex multiple-component assembly system through disulfide bonds. This strategy could facilitate the construction of yeast cell factories to express synergistic enzymes for use in biotechnology.

The Screening of Therapeutic Peptides for Anti-Inflammation through Phage Display Technology.

Project description:For the treatment of inflammatory illnesses such as rheumatoid arthritis and carditis, as well as cancer, several anti-inflammatory medications have been created over the years to lower the concentrations of inflammatory mediators in the body. Peptides are a class of medication with the advantages of weak immunogenicity and strong activity, and the phage display technique is an effective method for screening various therapeutic peptides, with a high affinity and selectivity, including anti-inflammation peptides. It enables the selection of high-affinity target-binding peptides from a complex pool of billions of peptides displayed on phages in a combinatorial library. In this review, we will discuss the regular process of using phage display technology to screen therapeutic peptides, and the peptides screened for anti-inflammation properties in recent years according to the target. We will describe how these peptides were screened and how they worked in vitro and in vivo. We will also discuss the current challenges and future outlook of using phage display to obtain anti-inflammatory therapeutic peptides.

Directed evolution of a biterminal bacterial display scaffold enhances the display of diverse peptides.

Project description:Bacterial cell-surface display systems coupled with quantitative screening methods offer the potential to expand protein engineering capabilities. To more fully exploit this potential, a unique bacterial surface display scaffold was engineered to display peptides more efficiently from the surface exposed C- and N-termini of a circularly permuted outer membrane protein. Using directed evolution, efficient membrane localization of a circularly permuted OmpX (CPX) display scaffold was rescued, thereby improving the presentation of diverse passenger peptides on the cell surface. Random and targeted mutagenesis directed towards linkers joining the native N- and C-termini of OmpX coupled with screening by FACS yielded an enhanced CPX (eCPX) variant which localized to the outer membrane as efficiently as the non-permuted parent. Interestingly, enhancing substitutions coincided with a C-terminal motif conserved in outer membrane proteins. Surface localization of various passenger peptides and mini-proteins was expedited using eCPX relative to that achieved with the parent scaffold. The new variant also permitted simultaneous display and labeling of distinct peptides on structurally adjacent C- and N-termini, thus enabling display level normalization during library screening and the display of bidentate or dimeric peptides. Consequently, the evolved scaffold, eCPX, expands the range of applications for bacterial display. Finally, this approach provides a route to improve the performance of cell-surface display vectors for protein engineering and design.
