Description

Human interleukin 2 variant or derivative thereof
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to human interleukin-2 (IL-2) variants or derivatives thereof having one or more amino acid mutations. The IL-2 variants or derivatives have an eliminated or reduced affinity for the high affinity receptor (IL-2R α/β/γ) and retain affinity for the medium affinity receptor (IL-2R β/γ). The disclosure also relates to immunoconjugates, encoding polynucleotides, vectors, host cells, pharmaceutical compositions, methods of preparation and methods of treatment and uses comprising the human IL-2 variants or derivatives thereof.
Background
Human interleukin-2 (interleukin-2, IL-2), also known as T Cell Growth Factor (TCGF), is located on chromosome 4 (4q27) and comprises a total 7kb sequence consisting of 133 amino acids and a molecular weight of about 15 kD. In 1976 and 1977, culture broth of activated T cells was found to promote T cell proliferation by Doris Morgan, Francis Rusceti, Robert Gallo and Steven Gillis, Kendal Smith, respectively. The stimulatory factor in the culture broth is then purified and identified as a single protein, i.e., IL-2.
Initial in vitro cell experiments showed that T cells, after activation by TCR and CD28, can secrete IL-2 and express the IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) on the cell surface. The binding of IL-2 to its receptor can cause the proliferation and effect of T cells. This model makes IL-2 a molecule that plays a central role in T cell immune responses. However, subsequent in vivo experiments have shown that following IL-2 knock-out or its receptor, the animals develop autoimmunity. Subsequent experiments have shown that IL-2 can activate not only effector cells such as T cells and NK cells, but also regulatory T cells, thereby suppressing excessive immunity against itself.
IL-2 acts through IL-2R. IL-2R includes three subunits, IL-2R α (i.e., CD25), IL-2R β (i.e., CD122), and IL-2R γ (i.e., CD 132). Three subunits can form three receptor forms: the high binding force receptor comprises all three subunits IL-2R α/β/γ, and the binding force receptor comprises IL-2R β/γ and the low binding force receptor IL-2R α. Wherein, IL-2R beta and IL-2R gamma are necessary for IL-2 to activate a downstream signal path, when IL-2 is combined with IL-2R beta and IL-2R gamma, two receptor subunits form heterodimer, phosphorylate STAT5 in cells, enter cell nucleus and cause corresponding gene transcription and expression; IL-2R α is not required for signaling, but can promote the binding of IL-2 to IL-2R β and IL-2R γ. IL-2R gamma is expressed in all immune cells; IL-2R beta is expressed in CD8+ T cells, NK cells and regulatory T cells, and the expression level is also increased after the T cells are activated; IL-2R alpha is continuously highly expressed in regulatory T cells, and is transiently expressed in activated CD8+ T cells, and then expression level is down-regulated.
IL-2 is synthesized predominantly by activated T cells, especially CD4+ helper T cells. It stimulates proliferation and differentiation of T cells, induces production of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTLs) and differentiation of peripheral blood lymphocytes into cytotoxic and Lymphokine Activated Killer (LAK) cells, promotes expression of cytokines and cytolytic molecules by T cells, promotes proliferation and differentiation of B cells and immunoglobulin synthesis by B cells, and stimulates production, proliferation and activation of Natural Killer (NK) cells.
The ability of IL-2 to expand lymphocyte populations and enhance effector functions of these cells in vivo makes it an anti-tumor effect, IL-2 immunotherapy is the treatment of choice in certain patients with metastatic cancer, and high doses of IL-2 are currently approved for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma.
Previous studies of IL-2 variants have shown that IL-2 variants with mutations in at least four of the positions 38, 42, 45, 62, 68 have reduced stimulatory effects on regulatory T cells (WO 2012062228); IL-2 variants containing mutations at positions 72, 42, 45, have reduced or eliminated binding to high binding IL-2 receptors, but retain binding to intermediate binding IL-2 receptors (CN 201280017730.1); variants with mutations at positions 91, 126, which mutations allow IL-2 to bind to CD25(IL2R α) but do not activate IL-2R on regulatory T cells (US 8906356); IL-2R comprising at least one E15, H16, Q22, D84, N88 or E95 mutation for use in the treatment of graft-versus-host disease in a subject (US 9732134); IL-2 variants comprising at least R38W have the ability to decrease vascular permeability and treat solid tumors (US 7371371; US 7514073; US 8124066; US 7803361); fusion protein of IL-2 variant and Fc for treating diseases, wherein the IL-2 has N88R mutation (WO 2016014428); a chimeric polypeptide comprising a cytokine linked to an immune cell surface protein targeting ligand, wherein the cytokine may be a variant of IL-2 (WO2017136818) or the like.
However, there is still a lack in the prior art of IL-2 variants with higher stability, reduced level of activation of regulatory T cells, and no influence on the activation of immune effector cells. Providing such IL-2 variants and derivatives thereof to enhance the effectiveness of IL-2 therapy is a problem that needs to be addressed in the art.

In one embodiment, the IL-2 variant or derivative thereof induces less activation-induced cell death (AICD) in the T cells compared to wild-type IL-2 or derivative thereof. In some embodiments, the IL-2 variant or derivative thereof has reduced in vivo toxicity compared to wild-type IL-2 or derivative thereof.
In some embodiments, IL-2 variants are provided that comprise mutations at positions 29-44 (mutations at positions 29-44 to QSMHIDATL, or mutations at positions 41-44 to DATL, or mutations at positions 35-44 to MHIDATL) that have reduced binding to IL-R α and substantially unchanged binding to IL-R β/γ.

In some embodiments, the IL-2 variant and the non-IL-2 module form a fusion protein, i.e., the IL-2 variant shares a peptide bond with the non-IL-2 module. In some embodiments, the IL-2 variant is linked to at least one non-IL-2 module, such as a first and second non-IL-2 module. In some embodiments, the non-IL-2 module is an antigen binding module. In some embodiments, the IL-2 variant shares an amino-or carboxy-terminal peptide bond with the first antigen-binding moiety, and the second antigen-binding moiety shares an amino-or carboxy-terminal peptide bond with: i) an IL-2 variant or ii) a first antigen binding moiety.

Detailed Description
In order that the disclosure may be more readily understood, certain technical and scientific terms are specifically defined below. Unless clearly defined otherwise herein, all other technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs.
The three letter codes and the one letter codes for amino acids used herein are as described in j. diol. chem,243, p3558 (1968).
Term(s) for
"Interleukin-2" or "IL-2" refers to any native IL-2 from any vertebrate source, including mammals such as primates (e.g., humans) and rodents (e.g., mice and rats). The term encompasses unprocessed IL-2 as well as any form of IL-2 that results from processing in a cell. The term also encompasses naturally occurring IL-2 variants, such as splice variants or allelic variants. Exemplary wild-type human IL-2 amino acid sequences are set forth in SEQ ID NO:2, respectively. Unprocessed human IL-2 additionally comprises a signal peptide of 20 amino acids N-terminal (as shown in SEQ ID NO: 272 in WO 2012107417), which is absent in the mature IL-2 molecule.
"amino acid mutation" includes amino acid substitutions, deletions, insertions, modifications, and any combination thereof, to achieve the final construct such that the final construct possesses the desired property, e.g., enhanced stability. Amino acid sequence deletions and insertions include amino and/or carboxy-terminal deletions and amino acid insertions. An example of a terminal deletion is the deletion of an alanine residue at position 1 of full-length human IL-2. Preferred amino acid mutations are amino acid substitutions. To alter the binding properties of, for example, an IL-2 polypeptide, non-conservative amino acid substitutions may be made, i.e., one amino acid is replaced with another amino acid having a different structural and/or chemical property. Preferred amino acid substitutions include the substitution of a hydrophilic amino acid for a hydrophobic amino acid. Amino acid substitutions include substitutions by non-naturally occurring amino acids or by naturally occurring amino acid derivatives of the 20 standard amino acids (e.g., 4-hydroxyproline, 3-methylhistidine, ornithine, homoserine, 5-hydroxylysine). Amino acid mutations can be generated using genetic or chemical methods well known in the art, including methods of site-directed mutagenesis, PCR, gene synthesis, chemical modification, and the like.
A "wild-type IL-2" is a form of IL-2 that is otherwise identical to a variant IL-2 polypeptide, except that it has a wild-type amino acid at each amino acid position in the variant IL-2 polypeptide. For example, if the IL-2 variant is full-length IL-2 (i.e., IL-2 that is not fused or conjugated to any other molecule), then the wild-type form of this variant is the full-length native IL-2. If the IL-2 variant is a fusion between IL-2 and another polypeptide encoded downstream of IL-2 (e.g., an antibody chain), then the wild-type form of this IL-2 variant is IL-2 having a wild-type amino acid sequence fused to the same downstream polypeptide. Furthermore, if the IL-2 variant is a truncated form of IL-2 (a mutated or modified sequence within the non-truncated portion of IL-2), then the wild-type form of the IL-2 variant is a similarly truncated IL-2 having a wild-type sequence. In order to compare the IL-2 receptor binding affinity or biological activity for various forms of IL-2 variants with the corresponding IL-2 wild-type form, the term "wild-type" encompasses forms of IL-2 that comprise one or more amino acid mutations that do not affect IL-2 receptor binding, e.g., a cysteine substitution to alanine C125A at a position corresponding to residue 125 of human IL-2, as compared to naturally-occurring, native IL-2. In some embodiments, the wild-type IL-2 comprises SEQ ID NO:2, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
"derivatives" are intended to be interpreted broadly, including any IL-2 related product. Including but not limited to human and non-human IL-2 homologs, fragments or truncations, fusion proteins (e.g., fused to a signal peptide or other active, inactive component, such as an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof), modified forms (e.g., PEGylation, glycosylation, albumin conjugation/fusion, Fc conjugation and/or fusion, hydroxyethylation, etc.), conservatively modified proteins, and the like.
"CD 25" or "alpha subunit of the IL-2 receptor" refers to any native CD25 from any vertebrate source, including mammals such as primates (e.g., humans) and rodents (e.g., mice and rats), including "full-length" unprocessed CD25 as well as any form of CD25 that results from processing in cells, and also includes naturally occurring CD25 variants, such as splice variants or allelic variants. In certain embodiments, CD25 is human CD25, with exemplary sequences as set forth in SEQ ID NO: shown at 37.
"high affinity IL-2 receptor" refers to heterotrimeric forms of the IL-2 receptor that consist of a receptor gamma subunit (also known as the universal cytokine receptor gamma subunit, yc, or CD132), a receptor beta subunit (also known as CD122 or p70), and a receptor alpha subunit (also known as CD25 or p 55). In contrast, a "medium affinity IL-2 receptor" refers to an IL-2 receptor that contains only gamma and beta subunits and no alpha subunits (see, e.g., Olejniczak and Kasprzak, MedSci Monit14, RA179-189 (2008)).
"affinity ofForce "refers to the strength of the sum of all non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., a receptor) and its binding partner (e.g., a ligand). Unless otherwise indicated, "binding affinity" herein refers to an intrinsic binding affinity that reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., a receptor and a ligand). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be determined by the dissociation constant (K)D) Expressed as dissociation and association rate constants (K, respectively)DissociationAnd KBonding of) The ratio of (a) to (b). As such, equal affinities may comprise different rate constants, as long as the ratio of rate constants remains the same. Affinity can be measured by methods conventional in the art, including the methods described herein.
"regulatory T cells" or "TRegulatingBy cell "is meant a specialized CD4+ T cell type that can suppress the response of other T cells T regulatory cells are characterized by expression of the α subunit of the IL-2 receptor (CD25) and the transcription factor forkhead box P3(FOXP3) (Sakaguchi, annurev immunol22,531-62(2004)) and play a key role in the induction and maintenance of peripheral self-tolerance to antigens, including those expressed by tumors.
"Effector cells" refers to a population of lymphocytes that mediate the cytotoxic effects of IL-2. Effector cells include effector T cells such as CD8+ cytotoxic T cells, NK cells, lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, and macrophages/monocytes.
An "antigen binding moiety" refers to a polypeptide molecule that specifically binds an antigenic determinant. In some embodiments, the antigen binding moiety is capable of directing the entity (e.g., cytokine or second antigen binding moiety) to which it is attached to a target site, e.g., to a specific type of tumor cell or to an antigenic determinant-bearing tumor stroma. Antigen binding moieties include antibodies and fragments thereof as further defined herein. Preferably the antigen binding moiety comprises an antigen binding domain of an antibody comprising an antibody heavy chain variable region and an antibody light chain variable region. In certain embodiments, the antigen binding moiety may comprise an antibody constant region, as further defined herein and known in the art. Useful heavy chain constant regions include any of the following 5 isoforms: α, γ, or μ. Useful light chain constant regions include any of the following 2 isoforms: κ and λ.
An "immunoconjugate" refers to a polypeptide molecule comprising at least one IL-2 moiety and at least one antigen binding moiety. In certain embodiments, the immunoconjugate comprises at least one IL-2 moiety and at least two antigen binding moieties. Specific immunoconjugates according to the disclosure consist essentially of one IL-2 moiety and two antigen binding moieties linked by one or more linker sequences. The antigen binding module can be linked to the IL-2 module by a variety of interactions and in a variety of configurations.
By "specific binding" is meant that the binding is selective for the antigen and can be distinguished from unwanted or non-specific interactions. The ability of an antigen binding module to bind specific antigenic determinants can be measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) or other techniques well known to those skilled in the art, such as surface plasmon resonance techniques (analyzed on BIAcore instruments) (Liljebelad et al, Glyco J17, 323-.
"antibody" is used herein in the broadest sense and encompasses a variety of antibody structures, including, but not limited to, monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antigen-binding fragments, so long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity. Antibodies may include murine, human, humanized, chimeric, and camelid antibodies. Illustratively, the antibody may be an immunoglobulin, a tetrapeptide chain structure formed by two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains linked by interchain disulfide bonds. The constant regions of immunoglobulin heavy chains differ in their amino acid composition and arrangement, and thus, their antigenicity. Accordingly, immunoglobulins can be classified into five classes, otherwise known as the isotype of immunoglobulins, i.e., IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, with their corresponding heavy chains being the μ, γ, α, and chain, respectively. The same class of igs can be divided into different subclasses according to differences in amino acid composition of the hinge region and the number and position of disulfide bonds in the heavy chain, and for example, iggs can be classified into IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG 4. Light chains are classified as either kappa or lambda chains by differences in the constant regions. In the five classes of igs, the second class of igs can have either kappa chains or lambda chains.
"antigen binding fragment" refers to a Fab fragment, Fab 'fragment, F (ab') 2 fragment, single chain Fv (i.e., sFv), nanobody (i.e., VHH), VH/VL domain that has antigen binding activity. The Fv fragment contains the antibody heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region, but lacks the constant region, and has the smallest antigen binding fragment of the total antigen binding site. Generally, Fv antibodies also comprise a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains and are capable of forming the structures required for antigen binding. Two antibody variable regions can also be joined together with different linkers into a single polypeptide chain, known as single chain antibodies (scFv) or single chain fv (sFv).
"conservative modifications" apply to amino acid and nucleotide sequences. For a particular nucleotide sequence, conservative modifications refer to those nucleic acids that encode identical or substantially identical amino acid sequences, or, in the case of nucleotides that do not encode amino acid sequences, to substantially identical nucleotide sequences. With respect to amino acid sequences, "conservative modifications" refer to the replacement of amino acids in a protein with other amino acids having similar characteristics (e.g., charge, side chain size, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity, backbone conformation, and rigidity, etc.) such that changes can be made frequently without altering the biological activity of the protein. It is known to The person skilled in The art that, in general, a single amino acid substitution in a non-essential region of a polypeptide does not substantially alter The biological activity (see, for example, Watson et al (1987) molecular μ lar Biology of The Gene, The Benjamin/Cummings Pub. Co., p. 224, (4 th edition)).
By "pegylated" is meant that at least one PEG molecule is linked to another molecule (e.g., a therapeutic protein). For example, Adagen (PEGylated formulation of adenosine deaminase) is approved for the treatment of severe combined immunodeficiency disorders. It has been shown that the attachment of polyethylene glycol can prevent proteolysis (see, e.g., Sada et al (1991) J. fermentation Bioengineering 71: 137-139). In the most common form, PEG is at one endA linear or branched polyether linked to a hydroxyl group and having the following general structure: HO- (CH)2CH2O)n-CH2CH2PEG conjugation of proteins can be activated by preparing derivatives of PEG with functional groups at some or both ends, which are suitable for reaction with lysine and N-terminal amino acid groups.a common approach to PEG conjugation of proteins is to activate PEG with functional groups, especially α or amino groups participating in conjugation.
"vector", "expression vector" is synonymous with "expression construct" and refers to a DNA molecule for introducing a specific gene in operable association therewith and directing its expression in a target cell, including vectors that are autonomously replicating nucleic acid structures as well as vectors that are incorporated into the genome of a host cell into which they are introduced. The expression vectors herein comprise an expression cassette, allowing transcription of a large amount of stable mRNA. Once the expression vector is in the target cell, the ribonucleic acid molecule or protein encoded by the gene is produced by the cellular transcription and/or translation machinery.
"host cell," "host cell line," and "host cell culture" are used interchangeably and refer to a cell into which an exogenous nucleic acid has been introduced, including the progeny of such a cell. Host cells include "transformants" and "transformed cells," which include the originally transformed cell and progeny derived therefrom (regardless of the number of passages). Progeny may not be identical to the parent cell in nucleic acid content, but may contain mutations. Included herein are mutant progeny that have the same function or biological activity as the function or biological activity screened or selected in the originally transformed cell.
"administration," "administering," and "treating," when applied to an animal, human, experimental subject, cell, tissue, organ, or biological fluid, refers to contact of an exogenous drug, therapeutic agent, diagnostic agent, or composition with the animal, human, subject, cell, tissue, organ, or biological fluid. "administration," "administering," and "treating" may refer to, for example, therapeutic, pharmacokinetic, diagnostic, research, and experimental methods. The treatment of the cells comprises contacting the reagent with the cells and contacting the reagent with a fluid, wherein the fluid is in contact with the cells. "administering", "administering" and "treating" also mean treating, for example, a cell in vitro and ex vivo by an agent, a diagnostic, a binding composition, or by another cell. "administration", "treatment" when applied to a human, veterinary or research subject refers to therapeutic treatment, prophylactic or preventative measures, research and diagnostic applications.
By "treating" is meant administering an internal or external therapeutic agent, such as a composition comprising any of the IL-2 variants and derivatives thereof of the present disclosure, or comprising the variants or derivatives, to a subject diagnosed as having, suspected of having, or susceptible to one or more disease symptoms for which the therapeutic agent is known to have a therapeutic effect. Typically, the therapeutic agent is administered in the subject or population being treated in an amount effective to alleviate one or more symptoms of the disease, whether by inducing regression of such symptoms or inhibiting the development of such symptoms to any clinically unmeasurable degree.
The amount of therapeutic agent effective to alleviate any particular disease symptom (also referred to as a "therapeutically effective amount") can vary depending on a variety of factors, such as the disease state, age, and weight of the subject, and the ability of the drug to produce a desired therapeutic effect in the subject. Whether a disease symptom has been reduced can be assessed by any clinical test commonly used by physicians or other health professional to assess the severity or progression of the symptom. Although embodiments of the present disclosure (e.g., methods of treatment or articles of manufacture) may be ineffective in alleviating the symptoms of the target disease in each patient, they should alleviate the symptoms of the target disease in a statistically significant number of subjects, as determined according to any statistical test method known in the art, such as Student's t-test, chi-square test, U-test by Mann and Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis test (H-test), Jonckhere-Terpsra test, and Wilcoxon test.
An "effective amount" comprises an amount sufficient to ameliorate or prevent a symptom or condition of a medical condition. An effective amount also means an amount sufficient to allow or facilitate diagnosis. The effective amount for a particular subject or veterinary subject may vary depending on the following factors: such as the condition to be treated, the general health of the subject, the method and dosage of administration, and the severity of side effects. An effective amount may be the maximum dose or dosage regimen that avoids significant side effects or toxic effects.
In this disclosure, "IL-2" may be used interchangeably with "IL 2".

Example 2 determination of the binding of wild-type IL-2 and variants to Interleukin 2 receptor alpha (IL-2R α)
The binding properties of IL-2 and its mutants prepared in example 1 to IL-2R α were tested using an ELISA assay. Coating the IL-2R alpha recombinant protein with his labels, adding IL-2, and detecting the activity of the antibody combined with the antigen by adding an HRP-coupled anti-IL-2 polyclonal antibody and an HRP substrate TMB.
96-well microtiter plates were coated with 2. mu.g/mL his-tagged recombinant IL-2R α protein (Sinobiological, Cat #10165-H08H) and incubated overnight at 4 ℃. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Each wash was shaken for 10 seconds to ensure adequate cleaning. Add 200. mu.l/well blocking solution and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Each wash was shaken for 10 seconds to ensure adequate cleaning. Add 100. mu.l of diluted IL-2 and its mutants to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Mu.l of HRP-labeled anti-IL-2 polyclonal antibody (SinoBiological, Cat #11848-T16) diluted at 0.1. mu.g/mL was added to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Mu.l of TMB was added to each well and the reaction was protected from light for 15 minutes. 50 μ l of 0.16M sulfuric acid per well was added. Reading the OD value of 450nm by a Thermo MultiSkanFc plate reader, and calculating the binding EC50 value of the IL-2 and the mutant thereof and the IL-2R alpha.
The ELISA binding data for the mutants of example 1 to IL-2R α are shown in FIG. 1 and Table 2. The results show that the first class of mutations, namely N26Q, N30S, Q11C/L132C, L70C/P82C, G27C/F78C, N29S mutations do not affect the binding of IL-2 to IL-2R alpha. And the second class of mutations, namely F42A/Y45A, F42A/L72G, Y45A/L72G and 29-44 mutations are QSMHIDATL, TFKF at 41-44 is mutated into DATL, and KLTRMLTFKF at 35-44 is mutated into MHIDATL, so that the combination of IL-2 and IL-2R alpha is greatly reduced, and the combination of the two can not be observed under experimental conditions. The combination of the two classes of mutations also reduced IL-2 binding to IL-2R α due to the inclusion of the second class of mutations.

IL-2R β/γ -Fc was captured with a Protein A sensor chip (GE, Cat #29127556) of a Biacore instrument (Biacore T200, GE), in which IL-2R β/γ -Fc was diluted to 1 μ g/mL with 1 × HBS-EP for 30 seconds at a flow rate of 10 μ L/min. Then IL-2 and its mutant under a series of concentration gradients were flowed on the surface of the chip at a flow rate of 30. mu.L/min for binding for 120 seconds and dissociation for 360 seconds, and reaction signals were detected in real time using a Biacore instrument (Biacore X100, GE) to obtain binding and dissociation curves. After each cycle of dissociation completion, the chip was washed and regenerated with 10mM Gly-HCl pH 1.5. The data obtained from the experiments were fitted to a 1:1binding model to give the values for binding of the mutants of example 1 to the intermediate affinity receptor IL-2R β/γ, see Table 3.

Example 4 assay of the cell proliferation Activity of wild-type IL-2 and variants CTLL2
The biological activity of IL-2 was examined on the basis of the proliferation rate of the cell-dependent strain CTLL-2 at different concentrations of interleukin-2 (IL-2).
Complete culture solution: RPMI 1640+2mM L-glutamine +1mM sodium pyruvate + 10% fetal bovine serum + 10% T-STIM culture supplement with containment-A (containing IL-2); basic culture medium: RPMI 1640+2mM L-glutamine +1mM sodium pyruvate + 10% fetal bovine serum.

The results show that the first type of mutation, namely N26Q, N30S, Q11C/L132C, L70C/P82C, G27C/F78C and N29S do not influence or even slightly enhance the CTLL2 cell proliferation activity of IL-2; and the second kind of mutation, F42A/Y45A, F42A/L72G, Y45A/L72G, TFKF with position QSMHIDATL, position 41-44 to DATL, and KLTRMLTFKF with position 35-44 to MHIDATL, reduces the combination of IL-2 and IL-2R alpha, and these mutants also reduce the CTLL2 cell proliferation activity of IL-2.

Example 5 STAT5 phosphorylation Activity assay of wild-type IL-2 and variants on CTLL2 cells
The biological activity of IL-2 was determined based on the phosphorylation level of STAT5 in the cell-dependent strain CTLL-2 at different IL-2 concentrations.
Complete culture solution: RPMI 1640+2mM L-glutamine +1mM sodium pyruvate + 10% fetal bovine serum + 10% T-STIM culture supplement with containment-A (containing IL-2); basic culture medium: RPMI 1640+2mM L-glutamine +1mM sodium pyruvate + 10% fetal bovine serum.

Add 1ml PBS, 4 ℃, 1400rpm centrifugal 5 minutes, remove paraformaldehyde. Resuspend cells, add 1ml of pre-cooled 100% methanol at 4 ℃, vortex and mix well, incubate for 20 min at 4 ℃. 3ml of PBSA buffer was added, centrifuged at 1400rpm for 5 minutes at 4 ℃ and the cells were washed 2 times. anti-STAT 5-pY694 antibody (BD, Cat #612599) coupled to Alexa Fluor 647 was added and incubated for 30 min at room temperature in the dark. Wash twice with 3mL PBSA and detect with flow cytometer. The data is processed by computer program or four-parameter regression calculation methodFitting, the calculation results are made as follows: relative biological activity (%) of the test sample as a control EC50Test sample EC50(EC50: half maximal effect concentration)
The results show that the mutations N26Q and N30S do not affect or even slightly enhance the STAT5 phosphorylation activity of CTLL2 cells of IL-2, while F42A/Y45A, F42A/L72G and Y45A/L72G, and the mutants also reduce the STAT5 phosphorylation activity of CTLL2 cells of IL-2 due to the reduction of the binding of IL-2 to IL-2R alpha.
The CTLL2 cell STAT5 phosphorylation activity data for the mutants in example 1 are shown in fig. 2 and table 5.

Example 6 stability Studies of wild-type IL-2 and variants
Stability studies were performed on approximately 1mg/mL IL-2 samples (10 mM acetate-sodium acetate buffer, pH4.5, 10% trehalose) using a Uncle (Uncariamed labs) instrument. The temperature of the sample was raised from 25 ℃ to 95 ℃ at a rate of 0.3 ℃/min while exciting tryptophan in the sample with 266nm light, and the emission light (emission) of the sample at 300-400nm was observed. The melting temperature (T) was calculated according to the following formulam) Where λ is the wavelength (300-.

As the temperature increases, the BCM parameters of the samples change, reflecting the change in protein conformation. The presence of two melting temperatures for wild-type IL-2 suggests that IL-2 undergoes two stages before complete unfolding, with the first unfolding stage requiring a lower energy relative to the second stage. The mutations N26Q and N30S, while not substantially affecting the first melting temperature, caused a significant increase in the second melting temperature; and IL-2-03, IL-2-04 and IL-2-05 have no first melting temperature, and the second melting temperature is obviously increased compared with the wild type. The experimental results show that the mutations N26Q, N30S, Q11C/L132C, L70C/P82C and G27C/F78C improve the thermal stability of IL-2.
The results of the thermostability experiments for IL-2 mutants are shown in FIGS. 3A-3F and Table 6.

Example 6 determination of the binding of mutant IL2-06 to IL-15 receptor alpha
ELISA experiments were used to test the binding properties of the interleukin 2 mutant IL2-6 of example 1 to IL-15 Ra.
First, a His tag (SEQ ID NO: 31) was added to IL 2-06. Transient expression was performed in HEK293 cells and purified by Ni-NTA affinity column and Superdex 200 molecular sieve column.
The 96-well plate was coated with 2. mu.g/mL of Fc-tagged recombinant IL-2R α protein (SinoBiological, Cat #183666-H02H) and incubated overnight at 4 ℃. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Each wash was shaken for 10 seconds to ensure adequate cleaning. Add 200. mu.l/well blocking solution and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Each wash was shaken for 10 seconds to ensure adequate cleaning. Mu.l of wild type IL15(SinoBiological, Cat #10360-H07E) or IL2-06 diluted in diluent was added to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Mu.l of anti-6 × His antibody conjugated with HRP at 0.5. mu.g/mL in diluent was added to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. The wash solution was washed three times, 250. mu.l per well. Mu.l of TMB was added to each well and the reaction was protected from light for 15 minutes. 50 μ l of 0.16M sulfuric acid per well was added. The Thermo MultiSkanFc microplate reader reads the OD value of 450nm and calculates the binding EC50 value of IL2 and the mutant thereof with the low-affinity IL-2R alpha.
The ELISA binding data for wild-type IL15 or IL2-06 and IL-15 Ra are shown in FIG. 4. The results indicated that IL2-06 failed to bind IL-15R α.
