`
`ABSTRACT We have created mouse-human antibody
`molecules of defined antigen-binding specificity by taking the
`variable region genes of a mouse antibody-producing myeloma
`cell line with known antigen-binding specificity and joining
`them to human lmmunoglobulin constant region genes using
`recombinant DNA techniques. Chimeric genes were construct·
`ed that utilized the rearranged and expressed antigen-binding
`variable region exons from the myeloma cell line $107, which
`produces an IgA (K) anti-phosphocholine antibody. The
`heavy chain variable region exon was joined to human IgGl or
`IgG2 heavy chain constant region genes, and the light chain
`variable region exon from the same myeloma was joined to the
`human K light chain gene. These genes were transfected into
`mouse myeloma cell lines, generating transformed cells that
`produce chimeric mouse-human lgG (K) or IgG (K) anti-pbos.
`phocholine antibodies. The transformed cell lines remained tu(cid:173)
`morigenlc In mice and the chimeric molecules were present in
`the ascitlc nulds and sera of tumor-bearing mice.
`
`The capability to transfer immunoglobulin genes into lym(cid:173)
`phoid cells where they produce protein in quantities suffi(cid:173)
`cient for structural studies (1-3) provides us with the oppor(cid:173)
`tunity to generate and characterize novel immunoglobulin
`molecules. Cloned variable (V) region genes from mouse or
`rat hybridoma cell lines can be ligated to human constant (C)
`region genes and we would expect that these chimeric genes
`can be transfected into mouse myeloma cells, which then
`will produce novel human antibody molecules. We would
`thus produce antibodies that are largely human but which
`have antigen-binding specificities generated in mice. The ad·
`ditional potential for in vitro manipulation and alteration of
`both the antigen-binding site and the structures correlated
`with biological effector functions of these antibody mole·
`cutes using recombinant DNA techniques would introduce a
`powerful approach for further understanding antibody struc(cid:173)
`ture, function, and immunogenetics.
`As we show here, both chimeric mouse heavy chain V re·
`gion exon (VH}--human heavy chain C region genes and chi·
`meric mouse light chain V region exon (V"}--human K light
`chain gene constructs are expressed when transfected into
`mouse myeloma cell lines. When both chimeric heavy and
`Light chain genes are transfected into the same myeloma cell,
`an intact tetrameric (H2L 2) chimeric antibody is produced.
`In this study we used VH and v .. exons from the mouse pbos·
`phocholine (PCho)-binding antibody-producing Sl07 myelo·
`ma cell line (4, 5). Chimeric mouse-human anti-PCho anti·
`bodies were produced in culture by appropriate transfected
`cell lines or by "transfectomas" obtained when such cell
`lines are injected into mice.
`
`MATERIALS AND METHODS
`Chimeric Genes. The cloned Sl07 VH and S107 V" genes
`were gifts from Matthew Scharff (Albert Einstein College of
`Medicine, Bronx, NY). The S107 VH gene was spliced to
`human lgGl and JgG2 C region genes by using Sal I linkers
`as shown in Fig. lA. Both constructs were inserted into the
`vector pSV2AH-gpt (1, 6). The Sl07 V" gene was spliced to
`the human K gene at a unique HindIIl site located in the large
`intron between the K light chain joining and C (J" and C")
`region exons as shown in Fig. lB. This chimeric light chain
`gene construct was inserted into both PSV2AH-gpt and
`pSV2-neo plasmid vectors (7).
`Transfection. Protoplast fusion and calcium phosphate
`precipitation techniques (1, 8, 9) were used to transfect these
`chimeric immunoglobulin genes into the J558L myeloma cell
`line (a >. light chain-producing mouse myeloma cell Line) and
`an immunoglobulin nonproducing derivative of the P3 my·
`eloma cell line. Mycophenolic acid (GIBCO) was used for
`selection of cells transfected with pSV2A-gpt vectors as de·
`scribed (1, 3). G418 (GIBCO) at 1.0 mg/ ml was used for se·
`lection of cells transfected ,with pSV2-neo vectors (7).
`Light and heavy chain chimeric immunoglobulin genes
`were transfected sequentially by protoplast fusion using
`G418 selection for the chimeric light chain gene vector and
`mycophenolic acid for the chimeric heavy chain gene vector.
`The protoplast fusion transfection procedure used was as de·
`scribed (1).
`Transfection using the calcium phosphate precipitation
`procedure was done by transfecting a mixture of 40 µ.g each
`of the chimeric light and chimeric heavy chain pSV2AH-gpt
`vectors into 5 x 106 cells. Mycophenolic acid was used to
`select for transformed cell lines as described (1).
`Antigen Binding. PCho binding of antibody secreted into
`the culture supernates of transfected cell lines was analyzed
`by using a solid-phase radioimmunoassay described previ(cid:173)
`ously (10). PCho-keyhole limpet hemocyanin antigen was
`bound to 96-well polyvinyl plates; bindint of chimeric anti·
`PCho antibodies was detected by using 1 I-labeled protein
`A or m l-labeled-anti-human lgG. PCho-binding antibodies
`in biosynthetically labeled culture supemates and cell ly(cid:173)
`sates of transfected cell lines also were analyzed by binding
`the biosynthetically labeled antibody to PCho-coupled Seph(cid:173)
`arose 4B (Pharmacia) and then eluting the bound antibody
`with PCho-hapten. The bound and eluted antibody was ex(cid:173)

`(NaDodS04/PAGE). Biosynthetic-labeling procedures were
`as described (11).

`treated cells was analyzed by NaDodS04/PAGE. Proce-
`
`dures for tunicamycin treatment were as described (11).
`Chimeric Mouse-Human Antibody Production in Mice.
`Transfected J558L cells producing chimeric mouse-human
`antibody were injected intraperitoneally into BALB/c mice
`(106 cells per mouse) . Sera and ascitic fluids from tumor(cid:173)
`bearing mice were analyzed for human anti-PCho antibody
`by a solid-phase radioimmunoassay (10) and by immunoelec(cid:173)
`trophoresis using a polyclonal anti-human lgG antiserum.
`
`RESULTS
`We obtained expression of chimeric mouse V region-human
`C region genes in transfected J558L and the immunoglobulin
`nonproducing P3 myeloma cell lines. When both light chain
`and heavy chain chimeric genes (see Fig. 1) were expressed
`in the same cell, tetrameric (H2L2) antigen-binding antibod(cid:173)
`ies were obtained. Biosynthetically labeled antibody mole(cid:173)
`cules secreted by J558L cells expressing chimeric genes
`were bound and hapten-eluted from PCho-Sepharose 4B.

`pected charge and relative molecular mass. Identical two(cid:173)
`dimensional gel analysis results were obtained with immuno(cid:173)
`precipitates by using monoclonal anti-human K and IgG anti(cid:173)
`bodies. Similar results were obtained when the chimeric
`lgG2 (K) antibodies produced in the transfected nonproduc(cid:173)
`ing P3 cell line were analyzed. Since the recipient P3 cell line
`does not produce endogenous immunoglobulin polypeptide
`chains, only the chimeric mouse-human heavy and light
`chains were seen (data not shown). PCho binding by the chi(cid:173)
`meric antibody produced in the J558L cell line required the
`specific association of both the V H and V L domains of the
`S107 myeloma protein connected to human C region poly(cid:173)
`peptides. Antibody secreted by transfected J558L cells ex(cid:173)

`J558L light chain did not bind PCho (data not shown).
`Further verification of the appropriate polypeptide folding
`of the mouse V H and V L domains attached to human C re(cid:173)
`gion polypeptide chains was done by analyses detecting the
`presence of idiotopes known to occur on the parental S107
`PCho-binding antibody molecule. Three monoclonal _anti(cid:173)

`preseqt on the heavy chain V region domain (12)--were
`found to react with the mouse-human chimeric anti-PCho
`antibodies (see Fig. 3). This is good evidence that the mouse
`S107 antigen-binding domains have folded into their intend(cid:173)

`this carbohydrate chain affects profoundly the overall do(cid:173)

`Concomitant with this structural change, the catabolism rate
`of the molecule is increased and biological effector functions
`such as complement-fixation are lost (14). Glycosylation of

`domain is glycosylated, clearly, the lower molecular mass of

`from the polypeptide chain. Note that the light chain band is
`not affected by tunicamycin treatment. From these data, we
`conclude that the mouse myeloma cell appropriately glyco(cid:173)
`sylates the human heavy chain.
`When transfected J558L cells producing the human IgG2
`(K) chimeric anti-PCho antibody were grown as an ascitic
`tumor in BALB/c mice, analyses of sera and ascitic fluids
`showed the presence of significant quantities of anti-PCho·
`binding antibodies by radioimmunoassay. Fig. 5 shows the
`results of immunoelectrophoretic analysis of ascitic fluids
`from these transfectoma-bearing mice. Polyclonal anti-hu(cid:173)
`man antiserum (a gift of E. A. Kabat, Columbia University,
`New York) was used to demonstrate the presence of human
`immunoglobulin. Based on our previous experience with
`mouse hybridoma-antibody production in mice, we conclude
`that the amounts of immunoglobulin visualized by this im(cid:173)
`munoelectrophoretic analysis are similar to the levels seen
`with lower-producing mouse hybridomas in vivo.
`Transfectomas producing chimeric heavy and light chains
`were produced either by cotransfection of both genes using
`calcium phosphate precipitation or by sequential protoplast
`fusion using vectors with different drug markers. For proto·
`plast fusion, the heavy chains were introduced first on a
`plasmid expressing the Eco-gpt gene. One heavy chain-pro(cid:173)
`ducing cell line then was transfected by protoplast fusion
`with a plasmid containing the light chain gene and the neo
`marker. Transformants resistant to both mycophenolic acid
`and G418 were assayed for their production of anti-PCho
`antibodies. Of 77 transformants analyzed, onJy 7 were posi(cid:173)
`tive for antibody by radioimmunoassay and only 2 of these
`were found to be producing significant quantities of K light
`chain. In cotransfection experiments using the calcium phos(cid:173)
`phate precipitation protocol, the same phenomenon was ob·
`served. Analyses of a large number of independent transfor(cid:173)
`mants revealed that a minority ( <10%) of the transfected cell
`lines produced both chimeric heavy and light chain polypep(cid:173)
`tides. Since our own unpublished data using the calcium
`phosphate precipitation procedure demonstrate that two in(cid:173)
`tact mouse immunoglobulin genes cotransfected into the
`same cell, using the same protocol as described here, coex(cid:173)
`press both gene products in the majority of transformed cell
`lines, these results suggest that appropriate transcript.ional
`or translational controlling elements are absent in the chi·
`meric light chain gene construction or that required tran·
`scriptional or translational factors are absent in the mouse
`cell lines transfected here.
`DISCUSSION
`The opportunity to use recombinant DNA techniques to con·
`struct novel antibody genes and then to produce antibody
`molecules in mammalian lymphoid cells transfected with
`these genes in appropriate vectors provides a new approach
`to understanding the structure, function, and immune prop(cid:173)
`erties of antibody molecules. The use of chimeric mouse(cid:173)
`human antibody gene constructs permits us to study .. near·
`human" antibodies with desired antigen-binding specific(cid:173)
`ities. For clinical applications, human antibody molecules
`constructed by using recombinant DNA techniques should
`complement human-human hybridoma antibodies as useful
`immunotherapeutic and diagnostic reagents. The use of hu·
`man or near-human antibodies might decrease or eliminate
`
`the immunogenicity of antibodies used in vivo, relative to
`monoclonal mouse hybridoma antibodies currently being
`used (15). Further, since the same V region can be joined to
`any C region, it is possible to use the C region of an appropri(cid:173)
`ate human heavy chain isotype that will exhibit desired bio(cid:173)
`logical effector functions.
`The use of mammalian lymphoid cells to produce these
`antibodies rather than a prokaryotic expression system as(cid:173)
`sures that any post-translational modifications of the anti·
`body molecules as they are synthesized, processed, folded,
`and assembled in the eukaryotic endoplasmic reticulum arc
`carried out correctly. For example, the immunoglobulins en(cid:173)
`coded by the transfcctcd mouse-human chimeric immuno(cid:173)
`globulin genes in both mouse recipient cells were glycosylat(cid:173)
`ed, bound antigen, and presumably would be treated as nor·
`mal immunoglobulins if injected into humans. This obviates
`the need for any post-synthetic in vitro modification or as(cid:173)
`sembly that is required with prokaryotic synthesis of immu(cid:173)
`noglobulin polypeptides to produce functional antibody mol·
`ecules (16). Furthermore, we have shown that transfectomas
`produce useablc amounts of human antibodies either in tis·
`sue culture or in mice.
`It is now feasible to shuffle exons or carry out other kinds
`of directed mutagcnesis to explore the human antibody mol·
`eculcs C region structures required for carrying out diverse
`antibody functions. It is conceivable that an altered antibody
`molecule more effective in specific functions than naturally
`occurring antibody molecule can be created. In a similar
`manner, it should be possible to modify V regions to alter
`their interactions with antigen. Even more exciting would be
`to construct antigen-binding sites de novo.
`A limitation yet to be overcome is the low frequency of
`transformants that produce chimeric light chains. The chi(cid:173)
`meric light chain gene construct (see Fig. lB) has the mouse
`V,. gene coupled to the presumed human intronic controlling
`element (ICE) or "enhanccr"-that is, this construct con(cid:173)
`tains the human intron with a sequence homologous to the
`established mouse ICE sequence (17). In contrast, the heavy
`chain chimeric mouse-human polypeptide is expressed effi(cid:173)
`ciently. In the latter construct (see Fig. lA). the ICE se(cid:173)
`quence is mouse-derived. Thus, the lower expression fre(cid:173)
`quency of the chimeric light chain gene may reflect a species
`preference for the effective interaction of the ICE sequence
`with factors or e lements controlling immunoglobulin expres(cid:173)
`sion in mouse lymphoid cells. This suggestion is consistent
`with our earlier finding that the mouse light chain gene, pre·
`sumably due to its ICE sequence, is not expressed efficiently
`in a rat mycloma cell line (1). Construction of chimeric genes
`using entire mouse intronic sequences and elimination of
`most human intronic sequences, to determine if these will be
`expressed efficiently, await further investigation.
`In this work we have taken the initial steps toward con(cid:173)
`structing and efficiently expressing unique immunoglobulin
`molecules. We expect that this technique will permit an in·
`creased understanding of the structural and dynamic require(cid:173)
`ments of antibody functions. It also will facilitate develop·
`ment of antibody molecules for immunodiagnosis and immu·
`notherapy.
