- FIG. 4 (A) the addition of 5-Ph-IAA resulted in the degradation of the DHC1-mAID-Clover fusion protein, and the accumulation of cells during mitosis was observed. Furthermore, the decomposition of DHC1 was confirmed by Western blotting (FIG. 4 (B)). As shown in FIG. 4B, degradation of DHC1 and mAID was confirmed in all of clones # 1 to 3 prepared by homologous recombination in a 5-Ph-IAA-dependent manner.
- Example 4 There are three drawbacks to constructing an intrinsic target proteolytic system. (1) Since many cultured cells are polyploid, there are two or more copies of allele of the target gene. Therefore, it is difficult to construct this degradation system in various cultured cell lines. (2) It is necessary to create a parent strain into which OsTIR1 (F74G) has been introduced in advance. (3) It takes time and effort to construct a large number of decomposition systems and create a library.
- a new target proteolytic system shown in FIG. 5 was constructed.
- (1) the OsTIR1 (F74G) gene and the mAID-target gene are linked to a transposon vector with a P2A linker gene, and (2) to knock out an endogenous target gene including a gRNA and a Cas9 gene.

- MCM10 essential replication initiators
- SLD3, or CDC45 essential replication initiators
- yeast strains expressing OsTIR1 show slow growth and higher basal degradation in yeast, as shown in OsTIR1 ON, no ligand, cdc45-mAID, etc. in FIG. 12 (B). Suggested that there is.
- OsTIR1 WT and F74A showed growth inhibition of these mAID-introduced strains at 500 ⁇ MIAA, suggesting that OsTIR1 (F74A) remains reactive to IAA.
- strains expressing OsTIR1 F74G or F74A showed strong growth inhibition on plates containing 5 ⁇ M5-Ph-IAA.
- OsTIR1 F74G or F74A
- the growth of the mcm10-mAID strain and the sld3-mAID strain is strongly inhibited, so that the AID2 system can produce a mutant having a higher degradation ability and a strong phenotype. Is shown.
- Example 6 Using human HCT116 cells that constitutively express OsTIR1 (F74G) as a material, RAD21-mAID-Clover (RAD21-mAC) cells were prepared by genome editing, and the effect of adding 5-Ph-IAA was confirmed. As shown in FIGS. 13 (A) and 13 (B), the expression level of RAD21-mAC expressed OsTIR1 (F74G) more than the cells expressing OsTIR1 (WT) at 0 minutes before addition. The cells are higher, indicating basal degradation in the conventional AID system. RAD21-mAC disappeared rapidly after addition of the ligand in both OsTIR1 (WT) and OsTIR1 (F74G).
- T1 / 2 was 26.5 minutes and 11.7 minutes for OsTIR1 (WT) and OsTIR1 (F74G), respectively, indicating that RAD21-mAC was degraded faster by the AID2 system.
- WT OsTIR1
- F74G OsTIR1
- Example 7 In view of the fact that OsTIR1 (F74G) showed less basal degradation, it was examined whether DHC1-mAID-Clover (DHC1-mAC) could be produced in HCT116 cells that constitutively express OsTIR1 (F74G).
- a parental cell line constitutively expressing OsTIR1 WT or F74G was transfected with a CRISPR plasmid for adding the degron tag and two donors with neomycin or hygromycin resistance markers, respectively (see Figure 14).
- OsTIR1 (F74G) -expressing cells colonies were formed in the presence of G418 and hygromycin, and the DHC1 gene in both alleles was tagged (see FIG.
- FIG. 16B colonization was confirmed under all conditions. However, the number of colonies was smaller in the cells expressing OsTIR1 (WT) and AtAFB2 than in the cells expressing OsTIR1 (F74G). In cells expressing AtAFB2 or OsTIR1 (F74G), degradation of mIAA7 or mAID-tagged DHC1 was induced (see FIG. 16C). In FIG. 16C, it was confirmed that the combination of OsTIR1 (F74G) and the mAID tag was the most efficient. This is because, as shown in FIG.
- the length of mIAA7 is short and / or the number of lysine residues required for ubiquitination of mIAA7 is small, so that the efficiency of formation of the three-component complex by IAA is reduced. It is thought that this is the reason.
- Example 8 It was difficult to generate an AID cell line using HCT116 cells that constitutively express OsTIR1 (WT). Condensin complex subunit SMC2, insulator protein CTCF, and RNA polymerase 2 largest subunit. Regarding (POLR2A), it was examined whether a cell line could be prepared from cells constitutively expressing OsTIR1 (F74G). As shown in FIG. 17, it was confirmed that tags can be added to both alleles of endogenous SMC2, CTCF, and POLR2A in HCT116 that constitutively express OsTIR1 (F74G). In these cell lines, the addition of 1 ⁇ M5-Ph-IAA rapidly degraded the mAID fusion target. From these results, it was confirmed that the AID2 system using cells constitutively expressing OsTIR1 (F74G) can be produced even for genes for which it is impossible to generate a cell line using the original AID system. Was done.
- auxin-independent degradation of the target protein can be inhibited, so that the degradation of the target protein can be strictly and freely controlled.

1.オーキシンアナログの合成
式(I-2)で示される化合物(5-Ph-IAAともいう。)を合成した。
OsTIR1(WT)遺伝子又はOsTIR1(F74G)遺伝子とmAID-EGFP(緑色蛍光タンパク質)-NLS(核移行シグナル)遺伝子がP2A配列を介してコードされるDNAがトランスポゾンにより染色体上に挿入されているHCT116細胞(ヒト結腸腺癌由来細胞)(以下、「OsTIR1(WT)/mAID-EGFP-NLS発現細胞」又は「OsTIR1(F74G)/mAID-EGFP-NLS発現細胞」と称する)を準備した(図1参照。)。
OsTIR1(F74G)/mAID-EGFP-NLS発現細胞にオーキシンアナログ(培地中の濃度:0、200μM)を添加して、24時間培養した。また、対照として、OsTIR1(WT)/mAID-EGFP-NLS発現細胞にオーキシンを添加した細胞も準備した。
オーキシンアナログの添加から24時間後に細胞を回収し、FACS解析を行った。結果を図1に示す。
同質遺伝的背景で、OsTIR1(WT)とOsTIR1(F74G)を比較したところ、OsTIR1(WT)においては、オーキシン未添加の状態で、mAID-EGFP-NLSレポーターレベルが低く、そのシグナルピークが広く、基底分解があることを示していた。OsTIR1(WT)に100μMオーキシンを添加することにより、シグナルピークが左にシフトし、レポーターが分解したことを示した。
対照的に、OsTIR1(F74G)を発現している細胞では、mAID-EGFP-NLSレポーターの発現レベルが高く、そのシグナルピークがよりシャープであり、これらの細胞では基底分解が、低いことが示された。更に、1μM5-Ph-IAAを4時間添加すると、レポーターはOsTIR1(F74G)を発現する細胞で効率的に分解された。
図7(B)に示す様に、OsTIR1(WT)を発現する3つの細胞株は、低発現レベルでより広いピークを示し、オーキシン無しでも基底分解があることを示唆した。
一方、OsTIR1(F74G)及びOsTIR1(F74A)を発現するクローンは、5-Ph-IAAを添加しない状態で、レポーターのより強い発現レベルを示し、基底分解が抑制されたことを示唆している。
更に、OsTIR1(F74G)を発現するクローンは、5-Ph-IAA処理によりOsTIR1(F74A)を発現するクローンと比較して、よりシャープなmAID-EGFP-NLSレポーターの分解を示した。 すべての場合において、シグナルピークは、5-Ph-IAA処理後に左にシフトし、分解が誘発されたことを示した。
一方、従来のシステムは、半減期147.1±12.5分で効率が低下していた。OsTIR1(F74G)を使用したAID2システムは、標的タンパク質の基底分解が少なく、新しい活性化リガンドである5-Ph-IAAの濃度が大幅に低くて済み、ターゲットの分解速度が速くなることが確認された。

OsTIR1(F74G)/DHC1-mAID-Clover発現細胞に、式(I-2)で示される化合物(5-Ph-IAAともいう。)を添加し、24時間後の細胞の様子を観察した(図4(A))。
更に、DHC1の分解をウエスタンブロッティングにより確認した(図4(B))。図4(B)に示すように、相同組換えを行って作製したクローン#1~3の全てにおいて、5-Ph-IAA依存的に、DHC1及びmAIDの分解が確認された。
内在性の標的タンパク質分解系を構築するには、以下3点の難点がある。(1)多くの培養細胞は多倍体化しているため、標的遺伝子のアリルが2コピー以上ある。そのため、様々な培養細胞株でこの分解系を構築することが難しい。(2)OsTIR1(F74G)があらかじめ導入された親株を作成する必要がある。(3)多数の分解系を構築してライブラリー化するには手間がかかる。
この分解系では、トランスポゾンベクターにより、ゲノム中にOsTIR1(F74G)遺伝子とmAID-標的遺伝子をインテグレートさせる一方で、CRISPR-KOベクターにより、内在性の標的遺伝子をノックアウトする。
図6(A)に抗CENPH抗体を用いたウエスタンブロッティングの結果を示す。内在性のCENPH遺伝子がノックアウトされていることが確認され、かつ5-Ph-IAA依存的にmAID-EGFP-CENPHの分解が確認された。
図6(B)に抗POLD1抗体を用いたウエスタンブロッティングの結果を示す。クローン#1~3において、内在性のPOLD1遺伝子がノックアウトされていることが確認され、かつ5-Ph-IAA依存的にmAID-EGFP-POLD1の分解が確認された。
AID2システムが酵母でも機能することを確認するために、GAL1-10プロモーターの制御下で、URA3遺伝子座に、OsTIR1(WT、F74G、又はF74A)を導入した(図12(A)参照。)。その後、必須の複製イニシエーターである、MCM10、SLD3、又はCDC45をコードする遺伝子にmAIDタグを付けた。
例えば、図12(B)のOsTIR1 ON、リガンドなし、cdc45-mAID等に示されるように、OsTIR1(WT又はF74A)を発現している酵母株は、遅い増殖を示し、酵母でより高い基底分解があることを示唆した。
更に、OsTIR1(WT及びF74A)は、500μMIAAでこれらmAID導入株の増殖抑制がみられたこのことは、OsTIR1(F74A)がIAAに対する反応性を残していることを示唆している。
すべての場合において、OsTIR1(F74G又はF74A)を発現する株は、5μM5-Ph-IAAを含むプレート上で、強い増殖阻害を示した。OsTIR1(F74G又はF74A)が発現された場合、mcm10-mAID株及びsld3-mAID株の増殖が強く阻害されることから、AID2システムがより分解能力が高く、強い表現型を示す変異体を製造できることを示している。
OsTIR1(F74G)を恒常的に発現するヒトHCT116細胞を材料に、ゲノム編集によりRAD21-mAID-Clover(RAD21-mAC)細胞を作製し、5-Ph-IAA添加による効果を確認した。図13(A)及び(B)に示されるように、 RAD21-mACの発現レベルは、添加前の0分でOsTIR1(WT)を発現している細胞よりも、OsTIR1(F74G)を発現している細胞の方が高く、従来のAIDシステムのにおける基底分解を示している。
RAD21-mACは、OsTIR1(WT)とOsTIR1(F74G)両方の場合に、リガンドの添加後に急速に消失した。但し、T1/2は、OsTIR1(WT)とOsTIR1(F74G)でそれぞれ26.5分と11.7分であり、RAD21-mACがAID2システムによってより速く分解されたことを示している。これらの結果は、AID2システムが、従来のAIDシステムよりもRAD21-mACをより迅速に制御できることを示している。
OsTIR1(F74G)がより少ない基底分解を示したことに鑑みて、OsTIR1(F74G)を恒常的に発現するHCT116細胞で、DHC1-mAID-Clover(DHC1-mAC)を作製できるかどうか検討した。 OsTIR1(WT又はF74G)を構成的に発現する親細胞株に、デグロンタグを付加するためのCRISPRプラスミドと、それぞれネオマイシンまたはハイグロマイシン耐性マーカーを持つ二つのドナーをトランスフェクトした(図14参照。)。OsTIR1(F74G)発現細胞において、G418及びハイグロマイシンの存在下で、コロニーは形成され、両アリルでのDHC1遺伝子にタグが付加された(図15(A)参照。)。 OsTIR1(WT)を発現する細胞では、コロニーは形成されなかった。OsTIR1(F74G)を発現するクローンでは、DHC1-mACは1μM 5-Ph-IAAの添加により効率的に分解した(図15(B)参照。)。 これらの細胞は有糸分裂で停止し(図15C参照。)、有糸分裂紡錘体形成に強い欠陥を示した(図15(D)参照。)。これは、DHC1が有糸分裂時に形成される紡錘体形成に必須であることと一致している。
AtAFB2又はOsTIR1(F74G)を発現している細胞で、mIAA7又はmAIDタグ付きDHC1の分解を誘導した(図16(C)参照)。図16(C)において、OsTIR1(F74G)とmAIDタグの組み合わせが、最も効率的であることが確認された。これは、図16(A)に示す様に、mIAA7の長さが短いため、及び/又はmIAA7のユビキチン化に必要なリジン残基が少ないために、IAAによる3成分複合体の形成効率が落ちるためと考えられる。
OsTIR1(WT)を恒常的に発現するHCT116細胞を使用しては、AID細胞株を作製することが困難であった、コンデンシン複合体のサブユニットSMC2、インシュレータータンパク質CTCF、及びRNA ポリメラーゼ 2 最大サブユニット(POLR2A)について、OsTIR1(F74G)を構成的に発現する細胞で、細胞株を作製できるか検討した。図17に示すように、OsTIR1(F74G)を構成的に発現しているHCT116内の内因性SMC2、CTCF、及びPOLR2Aの両アリルにタグを付加できることが確認された。これらの細胞株では、1μM5-Ph-IAAの添加によりmAID融合ターゲットが急速に分解された。これらの結果により、OsTIR1(F74G)を構成的に発現する細胞を使用するAID2システムが、元のAIDシステムを使用して細胞株を作製することが不可能な遺伝子に対しても作製できることが確認された。
