Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to fibronectin based scaffold domain proteins that bind PCSK9. The invention also relates to the use of the innovative proteins in therapeutic applications to treat atherosclerosis, hypercholesterolemia and other cholesterol related diseases. The invention further relates to cells comprising such proteins, polynucleotides encoding such proteins or fragments thereof, and to vectors comprising the polynucleotides encoding the innovative protein.
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. An isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding a polypeptide comprising a fibronectin type III tenth ( 10 Fn3) domain wherein the 10 Fn3 has a BC, DE and FG loop, and wherein the BC loop comprises SEQ ID NO:14, the DE comprises SEQ ID NO:25 and the FG loop comprises SEQ ID NO:37, and wherein the polypeptide binds PCSK9. 2. The isolated nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , wherein the BC loop comprises nucleotides 67-96 of SEQ ID NO:83, the DE loop comprises nucleotides 157-174 of SEQ ID NO:83 and the FO loop comprises nucleotides 232-270 of SEQ 1D NO:83. 3. An isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding a polypeptide comprising a 10 Fn3 domain wherein the polypeptide comprises SEQ ID NO:82, and wherein the polypeptide binds PCSK9. 4. The isolated nucleic acid molecule of claim 3 , wherein the isolated nucleic acid molecule comprises SEQ ID NO:83. 5. An expression vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid sequence of claim 1 . 6. An expression vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid sequence of claim 3 . 7. A cell comprising the isolated nucleic acid sequence of claim 1 . 8. A cell comprising the isolated nucleic acid sequence of claim 3 . 9. A method of producing a PCSK9-binding polypeptide comprising culturing the cell of claim 7 under conditions suitable for expressing the polypeptide and purifying the polypeptide. 10. A method of producing a PCSK9-binding polypeptide comprising culturing the cell of claim 8 under conditions suitable for expressing the polypeptide and purifying the polypeptide.
