`J-luman Cl Inhibitor: Improved Isolation and Preliminary Structural

`Richard A. Harrison*
`
`ABSTRACT: ~n improved procedure for the isolation of the CI
`inhibitor (C1-INH) component of human complement is re(cid:173)
`ported. Following preliminary steps to remove plasminogen,
`fib ri nogen, and aggregated material, three conventional
`cltromatographic steps a re u~ed to isolate Ci-INH in high
`(70%) overall yield. An extinction coefficient (Ei~~~01) of 3.60
`has been determined. T\\e isolated protein exhibits a single
`band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electro(cid:173)
`phoresis, with a mobility corresponding to an apparent mo(cid:173)
`lecular weight (M,) of 105 000. After removal of carbohy(cid:173)
`drate, the protein shows an increased mobility, corresponding
`to an apparent M, of 78 000. A total earbohydrate content
`of 33% has been calculated, and from this and the size of the
`deglycosylated polypeptide, a true molecular weight of 116 000
`was estimated. Further analysis of the carbohydrate has in(cid:173)
`dicated a galactose:mannose ratio of 2:1 and approximately
`equimolar amounts of N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetyl-
`
`Cr inhibitor (CI-INH) 1 is the major homeostatic component
`
`of the classical pathway of complement activation, inhibiting
`the proteolytic activity of activated C1 and thus the activation
`of C4 and C2. It was first described as a serum a 2-globulin
`with inhibitory activity against CI esterase (Ratnoff & Lepow,
`1957; Pensky eta!., 1961) and later shown to be identical with
`the a 2-neuraminoglycoprotein described by Schultze and co(cid:173)
`workers (Schultze eta!., 1962; Pensky & Schwick, 1969).
`Analysis of the mechanism by which CI-INH inhibits CI has
`shown it to act in a stoichiometric fashion with both Cir and
`Ci s, forming 1:1 molar complexes (Harpel & Cooper, 1975;
`Sim eta!., 1979b, 1980). The interaction between CI-INH
`and both Cir and Cis is covalent and believed to involve the
`active-site serine of the proteases (Arlaud et al., 1979). In
`this respect, it appears to have a reaction mechanism analogous
`to those of other plasma protease inhibitors such as a 2-anti(cid:173)
`plasmin, anti-thrombin III, and a 1-protease inhibitor (Cohen,
`1973; Moroi eta!., 1975; Owen, 1975; Baugh & Travis, 1976;
`Moroi & Aoki, 1977; Wiman & Collen, 1979). In addition
`to this direct inhibitory role, it has recently been shown that
`CI-INH promotes dissociation of CI bound to immune com(cid:173)
`plexes, releasing a Cir-Cis-(CI-INHh complex (Sim eta!.,
`1979a; Ziccardi & Cooper, 1979).
`Little is known about the structure of CI-INH. It is heavily
`glycosylated, with a reported carbohydrate content of 35%
`(Haupt et a!., 1970), and consists of a single polypeptide chain.
`Its molecular weight has been estimated as about 105 000 by
`both NaDodSOcpolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and
`analytical ultracentrifugation (Pensky et a!., 1961; Haupt et
`
`galactosamine. This composition is unusual for a plasma
`protein and suggests that much of the carbohydrate is con(cid:173)
`tained in linkages other than the typical N-glycosidic struc(cid:173)
`tures. Values found for the amino acid composition are
`compared with those reported previously. The amino-terminal
`sequence ( 40 residues) of CI-INH is also reported. Asparagine
`lies at the amino terminus. Neither high-performance liquid
`chromatography of the released phenylthiohydantoin derivative
`nor back-hydrolysis of the thiazolinone permitted identification
`of the residue contained at position 3. The sequence around
`this position is compatible, however, with an N-glycosidic
`linkage to residue 3. The first 10 residues also contain an
`unusual run of 5 hydroxyl-containing amino acids (-Thr(cid:173)
`Ser-Ser-Ser-Ser-) at positions 5-9. Visual comparison of the
`amino-terminal seq1.1ences with those reported for other pro(cid:173)
`tease inhibitors does not indicate any sequence homology.
`
`a!., 1970; Harpel & Cooper, 1975; Reboul et a!., 1977).
`Recent electron micrographic analysis has suggested that
`CT-INH is a highly elongated molecule containing rodlike and
`globular domains (Odermatt eta!., 1981). This fits well with
`its low sedimentation coefficient of 3.7-4.5 S. Amino acid and
`carbohydrate compositions of the protein have also been
`published (Haupt eta!., 1970; Harpel eta!., 1975).
`While CT-INH was first described as an inhibitor of acti(cid:173)
`vated C1, it has long been known that it is active against
`several other serum proteases. These include components of
`the coagulation system (factors Xla and Xlla; Forbes et a!.,
`1970), the fibrinolytic system (plasmin; Ratnoff eta!., 1969),
`and the kinin system (kallikrein; Gigli eta!., 1970). However,
`CI-INH is the only known plasma inhibitor of Ci r and Cs.
`Other plasma proteases that can be inhibited by CI-INH have
`alternative regulatory pathways. For example, plasmin is
`inhibited by a 2-antiplasmin (Moroi & Aoki, 1976; Collen,
`1976; Mullertz & Clemmensen, 1976), and kallikrein can be
`inhibited by armacroglobulin (Schapira eta!., 1981, 1982).
`It seems probable, therefore, that its major physiological role
`is directed against complement activation via the classical
`pathway. These secondary activities, particularly that against
`kallikrein, remain of interest because of the disease hereditary
`angioneurotic edema (HANE), which is associated either with
`low levels of apparently normal CI-INH (Donaldson & Evans,
`1963) or with the presence of a dysfunctional CI-INH protein
`(Rosen eta!., 1965, 1971).
`The work reported here was initiated in order that the in(cid:173)

`
`proteins and Cis or other plasma proteases, particularly
`kallikrein, could be investigated. Parallel chemical charac(cid:173)
`terization of the normal and dysfunctional proteins would also
`permit definition of the structural lesions leading to CI-INH
`dysfunction. Plasma containing dysfunctional proteins, though
`fresh frozen, were frequently several years old (and no longer
`obtainable). In addition, only limited volumes were available.
`Considerable attention was therefore spent in developing an
`isolation procedure, applicable to both normal and dysfunc(cid:173)
`tional proteins, with special emphasis on improving the yield
`of CI-INH from long-term-stored plasmas. This, together
`with preliminary chemical characterization of the isolated
`functional protein, is reported here.
`
`Materials and Methods
`DEAE-Sephadex A 50, Sephadex G 150 superfine, and Se(cid:173)
`pharose CL6B were purchased from Pharmacia. Lysine(cid:173)
`Sepharose was synthesized according to Deutsch & Mertz
`(1970). Hydroxylapatite (Bio-Gel HTP) was from Bio-Rad,
`as were NaDodS04, acrylamide, methylenebis(acrylamide),
`N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, Coomassie brilliant
`blue R250, and Basic Fuchsin. Dithiothreitol was from
`Calbiochem and iodoacetic acid from Kodak. Iodo[1- 14C](cid:173)
`acetic acid was from New England Nuclear. All sequenator
`reagents and solvents as well as methanol, norleucine, and
`PTH-norleucine were purchased from Pierce. Acetyl chloride
`was purchased from Sequemat, and acetonitrile and di(cid:173)
`chloroethane were from Burdick and Jackson. Anhydrous
`TFMSA was supplied by Sigma and anisole by Aldrich.
`Monospecific goat anti-human CI-INH was provided by
`Atlantic Antibodies. Fresh frozen plasma was obtained from
`the American Red Cross Blood Services, Northeast Region.
`Occasionally, freshly drawn plasma from fasted volunteers was
`used.
`CI-INH was located in column effluents by single-dimen(cid:173)
`sion crossed immunoelectrophoresis (Laurell, 1966) and
`quantitated antigenically by double diffusion in agar (Mancini
`et al., 1965). Functional assays were performed by using the
`procedure of Gigli and co-workers (Gigli et al., 1968). Protein
`solutions were concentrated by ultrafiltration using PM10
`membranes (Amicon). Phosphate buffers were made by using
`KH 2P04 and adjusting the pH with NaOH. NaDodSOc
`polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was performed according
`to Laemmli (1970). Samples were incubated at 100 °C for
`2 min in sample buffer containing 0.1 M 2-mercaptoethanol
`prior to loading and the gels stained either with Coomassie
`brilliant blue R250 or by the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)
`procedure (Segrest & Jackson, 1972).
`Carbohydrate was removed from CI-INH by incubation
`in anhydrous TFMSA (Edge et al., 1981). Briefly, the pro(cid:173)
`cedure used was as follows: 0.5 mL of anhydrous TFMSA
`containing 5% anisole was added to 10 mg of salt-free lyo(cid:173)
`philized protein in a conical stoppered glass tube; the tube was
`flushed with nitrogen, stoppered, and sealed with Parafilm.
`The dissolved protein was incubated at 0 °C for 3 h (during
`which time a faint pint color developed) and then the reaction
`terminated by the gradual addition, with vortexing, of an(cid:173)
`hydrous sodium carbonate to neutralize the acid. The neu(cid:173)
`tralized reaction wa tra nsferred with excess water to a djalysis
`bag (Spectrapor 2); excess salt, reactants, and released sugars
`were removed by dialyt>is against distilled water, and the
`precipitated polypeptide was recovered by lyophilization.
`Alkylation was performed by using the following procedure.
`Lyophil ized proteins (I 0 mg) was dissolved in 1 mL of 0.2 M
`Tris-HCI/6.0 M guanidine, pH 8.0. Dithiothreitol was then
`added to 5 mM, and the reaction vessel was flushed with
`
`HARRISON
`
`nitrogen, sealed, and incubated at 25 o'C for 30 min. The
`reduced protein was then radioalkylated by the addition of
`iodo[1- 14C]acetic acid (adjusted to a specific activity of about
`10 mCi/mmol) at a final concentration of 20 mM. There(cid:173)
`action was carried out (25 °C, 60 min) under nitrogen in the
`dark and terminated by the addition of 0.1 mL of 2-
`mercaptoethanol. Excess reactants were removed by dialysis
`against water, and the protein was recovered by lyophilization.
`Samples for amino acid hydrolysis were hydrolyzed (24-96
`h;.110°C) under vacuum in 6.0 M HCl (Ultrex) containing
`1% phenol and analyzed with a Beckman 121MB analyzer.
`Samples were prepared for carbohydrate analysis by hydrolysis
`for 24 h in 1 M methanolic HCl at 85 °C. Mannitol was used
`as an internal standard. Trimethylsilylation of the liberated
`sugars [see Bhaskar & Reid (1981)] was performed prior to
`analysis by gas-liquid chromatography (Clamp et al., 1972).
`Automated Edman degradation was performed by using a
`Beckman 890C sequencer modified with a cold trap. Con(cid:173)
`version was performed either in 1 M HCl containing 1.0%
`ethanethiol (Hermondson et al., 1972) or, in those sequencer
`runs for which the instrument was equipped with a P-6 au(cid:173)
`toconverter (Sequemat), in methanolic HCl (10 min, 65 °C;
`acetyl chloride:methanol1:7 by volume). A 0.1 M Quadrol
`program (Brauer et al., 1975) was used, and two coupling
`cycles were performed before the initial cleavage reaction.
`Phenylthiohydantoin derivatives were identified by high-per(cid:173)
`formance liquid chromatography. A Zorbax ODS column (Du
`Pont Instruments) equilibrated in 0.01 M sodium acetate, pH
`5.5, and developed with acetonitrile gradients modified from
`those of Zalut and co-workers (Zalut et al., 1980) was used.
`The identification of certain residues was confirmed by
`back-hydrolysis in 6 M HCl containing 0.1% stannous chloride
`(Mendex & Lai, 1975).
`The extinction coefficient of CI-INH was determined in
`the following way. CI-INH, at about 4 mg/mL, was dialyzed
`against distilled water adjusted to pH 7.0 with ammonium
`hydroxide. The protein was fully soluble under these condi(cid:173)
`tions, and the 280 nm:260 nm extinction ratio was unaltered
`from that seen in phosphate-buffered saline. The extinction
`of the protein solution at selected wavelengths was measured
`and an aliquot of a standard solution of norleucine added.
`Duplicate aliquots were taken, lyophilized, and hydrolyzed in
`vacuo for 24 h in 6.0 M HCl as described previously. The
`protein concentration of the solution was then determined from
`the hydrolysis data.
`Isolation of Cl-INH. The following procedure has been
`used routinely for plasma volumes of 500-1500 mL.
`Step 1: Removal of Aggregated Material, Fibrinogen, and
`Plasminogen. Freshly drawn human plasma was made 0.01
`M in EDT A and benzamidine by the addition of 0.1 volume
`of a stock solution of 0.1 M EDT A/0.1 M benzamidine, pH
`7.0, and chilled to 4 °C. If fresh frozen plasma was to be used,
`EDT A and benzamidine were added prior to freezing if pos(cid:173)
`sible, otherwise immediately on thawing. All subsequent op(cid:173)
`erations were performed at 4 °C. Solid PEG 4000 was then
`added to the stirred plasma to a final concentration of 5%
`(w jv) and the plasma stirred for a further 1-2 h. The pre(cid:173)
`cipitate, containing aggregated material, factor XIII, and much
`of the fibrinogen, was removed by centrifugation (lOOOOg, 30
`min) and discarded.
`Step 2: Lysine-Sepharose Chromatography. The PEG
`4000 supernatant was applied to a lysine-Sepharose column
`(200-mL bed volume/1000 mL of plasma) equilibrated with
`0.1 ~yhosphate/0.5 M KCl/0.01 M EDTA/0.005 M ben(cid:173)
`zamidme, pH 7 .0, to remove plasminogen. The column was

`nm of the effluent approached zero; all of the unadsorbed
`protein was pooled.
`Step 3: Chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A50. A
`DEAE-Sephadex A50 column (400-mL bed volume/1000 mL
`of starting plasma) was equilibrated with 0.02 M phos(cid:173)
`phate/0.1 M NaCl/0.005 M EDTA/0.005 M benzamidine,
`pH 7.0. After the pH and conductivity of the lysine-Sepharose
`effluent were adjusted to those of the equilibration buffer (by
`dilution and addition of 1.0 M HCI), the pool was applied to
`DEAE-Sephadex, and after the column was loaded, it was
`washed with equilibration buffer until the absorbance at 285
`nm was below 0.05. The column was then developed with a
`linear concentration gradient (five column volumes on each
`side) from 0.02 M phosphate/0.005 M EDTA/0.005 M
`benzamidine/0.1 M NaCl, pH 7.0, to 0.02 M phosphate/0.005
`M EDTA/0.005 M benzarnidine/0.4 M NaCl, pH 7.0 (Figure
`1).
`SteP_ 4: Chromatography on Sephadex GJ50 Superfine.
`The C1-INH-containing fractions from the previous column
`were pooled, concentrated to between 1 and 2% of the original
`plasma volume, and dialyzed against 0.02 M phosphate/0.1
`M KCl/0.002 M benzarnidine/0.002 M citrate, pH 7.0. After
`dialysis, the protein was clarified by centrifugation (20000g,
`10 min, 4 °C) and applied to a Sephadex G150 superfine
`column (2000-mL bed volume/1000 mL of starting plasma)
`equilibrated with the above buffer. A load volume of 1-2%
`?f the column bed volume was used. A typical elution profile
`IS shown in Figure 2.
`Step 5: Chromatography on Hydroxylapatite. Cl -INH(cid:173)
`containing fractions from the G 150 effluent were located as
`described previously, pooled, concentrated to between 20 and
`30 mL, and dialyzed against 0.02 M phosphate/0.15 M KCl,
`pH 7 .0. The dialyzed protein was then loaded onto a hy(cid:173)
`droxylapatite column (250-mL bed volume/1000 mL of
`plasma) equilibrated with the same buffer and elution con(cid:173)
`tinued with at least two column volumes of the equilibration
`buffer. This was followed by a gradient from 0.02 M phos(cid:173)
`phate/0.15 M KCl, pH 7.0, to 0.02 M phosphate/1.0 M KCl,
`PH 7.0. Finally, a gradient from 0.02 M phosphate/1.0 M
`I<.Cl, pH 7.Q, to 0.3 M phosphate/1.0 M KCl, pH 7.0, was
`applied. C1-INH-containing fractions (see Figure 3) were
`Pooled, concentrated, and stored frozen at -80 °C.

`
`using published isolation procedures (Haupt et al., 1970;
`Harpel & Copper, 1975; Reboul et al., 1977), the procedure
`described here was developed. The first two steps (5% PEG
`4000 precipitation and lysine-Sepharose chromatography),
`while achieving little in terms of protein fractionation (see
`Table I), were essential if maximum resolution and recovery
`were to be made in later chromatographic steps. The ad(cid:173)
`vantage of removing plasminogen at an early stage is obvious.
`It is less clear why PEG precipitation is required as consid(cid:173)
`erable amounts of fibrinogen remain in the supernatant. It
`is possible that successful isolation of CI-INH requires the
`removal of factor XIII at this point. A relatively high salt
`concentration (0.5 M KCI) was used during lysine-Sepharose
`chromatography as at lower salt concentrations considerable
`non-ligand-specific adsorption was seen.
`Resolution of CI-INH from the bulk of the plasma proteins
`was achieved by using three conventional chromatographic
`steps. Loading conditions onto DEAE-Sephadex were selected
`such that the albumin was not bound and could therefore be
`washed out of the column prior to appplication of the gradient.
`This was important as it was difficult to remove albumin at
`later stages in the procedure. An additional advantage re(cid:173)
