Definitions
- the invention relates to transgenic non-human animals capable of expressing xenogenic polypeptides, transgenes used to produce such transgenic animals, transgenes capable of expressing xenogenic polypeptides, yeast artificial chromosomes comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a human protein such as a human immunoglobulin or amyloid precursor protein (APP) , methods and transgenes for transferring large polynucleotide sequences into cells, and methods for co-lipofection of discontinuous polynucleotide sequences into cells.
- APP amyloid precursor protein
- yeast artificial chromosome (“YAC") cloning vectors which are capable of propagating large (50 to more than 1000 kilobases) cloned inserts (U.S. Patent 4,889,806) of xenogenic DNA.
- YAC clone libraries have been used to identify, map, and propagate lar fragments of mammalian genomic DNA.
- YAC cloning is especial useful for isolating intact genes, particularly large genes having exons spanning several tens of kilobases or more, and genes having distal regulatory elements located tens of kilobases or more upstream or downstream from the exonic sequences.
- YAC cloning is particularly advantageous for isolating large complex gene loci, such as unrearranged immunoglobulin gene loci, and genes which have been inexactl mapped to an approximate chromosomal region (e.g., a
- YAC cloning is also well-suited for making vectors for performing targeted homologous recombination in mammalian cells, since YACs allow the cloni of large contiguous sequences useful as recombinogenic homology regions in homologous targeting vectors. Moreover, YACs afford a system for doing targeted homologous recombination in a yeast host cell to create novel, large transgenes (e.g., large minigenes, tandem gene arrays, etc.) in YAC constructs which could then be transferred to mammali host cells.
- novel, large transgenes e.g., large minigenes, tandem gene arrays, etc.
- Spheroplast fusion has been used to introduce YAC DNA into fibroblasts, embryonal carcinoma cells, and CHO cell (Pachnie et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 87: 5109; Payan et al. (1990) Mol. Cell. Biol. 10: 4163; Chirke e al. (1991) EMBO J. 10: 1629; Davies et al. (1992) Nucleic Acids Res. 20: 2693) .
- Alternative transfection methods such as calcium phosphate precipitation and lipofection have been used to transfer YAC DNA into mammalian cells (Eticciri et al. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 88: 2179; Strauss an Jaenisch R (1992) EMBO J. 11: 417).
- a large cloned mammalian genomic fragment from a YAC library, either linked to YAC yeast sequences or purified away from YAC yeast sequences, and transfer it intact into a mammalian host cell (e.g., an ES cell) with a second polynucleotide sequence (e.g., a selectable marker such as a neo R expression cassette) without additional cloning or manipulation (e.g., ligation of the sequences to each other) .
- a mammalian host cell e.g., an ES cell
- a second polynucleotide sequence e.g., a selectable marker such as a neo R expression cassette
- Such a method would allow the efficient construction of transgenic cells, transgenic animals, and homologously targeted cells and animals.
- These transgenic/homologously targeted cells and animals could provide useful models of, for example, human genetic diseases such as Huntington's chorea and Alzheimer's disease, among
- Alzheimer's Disease At present there is no known therapy for the variou forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there are severa disease states for which effective treatment is available and which give rise to progressive intellectual deterioration closely resembling the dementia associated with Alzheimer's disease.
- Alzheimer's disease is a progressive disease known generally as senile dementia. Broadly speaking the disease falls into two categories, namely late onset and early onset. Late onset, which occurs in old age (65 + years) , may be caused by the natural atrophy of the brain occurring at a faster rate and to a more severe degree than normal. Early onset Alzheimer's disease is much more infrequent but shows a pathologically identical dementia with brain atrophy which
- Alzheimer's disease a form of this type of Alzheimer's disease is inherited and is therefore known as familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD).
- FAD familial Alzheimer's disease
- the pathology is the same but the abnormalities tend to be more severe and more widespread in cases beginning at an earlier age.
- the disease is characterized by four types of lesions in the brain, these are: amyloid plaques around neurons (senile plaques) , amyloid deposits around cerebral blood vessels, neurofibrillary tangles inside neurons, and neuronal cell death.
- Senile plaques are areas of disorganized neuropil up to I50 ⁇ m across with extracellular amyloid deposits at the center.
- Cerebrovascular amyloid deposits are amyloid materia surrounding cerebral blood vessels.
- Neurofibrillary tangles are intracellular deposits of amyloid protein consisting of two filaments twisted about each other in pairs.
- amyloid ⁇ protein The major protein subunit, amyloid ⁇ protein, is found in amyloid filaments of both the neurofibrillary tangle and the senile plaque and is a highly aggregating small polypeptide of approximate relative molecular mass 4,000. This protein is a cleavage product of a much larger precursor protein called amyloid precursor protein (APP) .
- APP amyloid precursor protein
- the APP gene is known to be located on human chromosome 21.
- a locus segregating with familial Alzheimer's disease has been mapped to chromosome 21 (St. George Hyslop e al (1987) Science 235: 885) close to the APP gene.
- Recombinants between the APP gene and the AD locus have been previously reported (Schellenberg et al. (1988) Science 241: 1507; Schellenberg et al. (1991) Am. J. Hum. Genetics 48: 563 Schellenberg et al. (1991) Am. J. Hum. Genetics 49: 511, incorporated herein by reference) .
- AD pathogenesis The development of experimental models of Alzheimer's disease that can be used t define further the underlying biochemical events involved in AD pathogenesis would be highly desirable. Such models could presumably be employed, in one application, to screen for agents that alter the degenerative course of Alzheimer's disease. For example, a model system of Alzheimer's disease could be used to screen for environmental factors that induce or accelerate the pathogenesis of AD. In contradistinction, an experimental model could be used to screen for agents that inhibit, prevent, or reverse the progression of AD. Presumably, such models could be employed to develop pharmaceuticals that are effective in preventing, arresting, or reversing AD.
- mice which carry an extra copy of the APP gene as a result of partial triso y of chromosome 16 die before birth (Coyle et al. (1988) Trends in Neurosci. 11: 390) . Since the cloning of the APP gene, there have been several attempts to produce a mouse model for AD using transgenes that include al or part of the APP gene, unfortunately much of the work remains unpublished since the mice were nonviable or failed t show AD-like pathology; two published reports were retracted because of irregularities in reported results (Marx J Science 255: 1200) .
- transgenic nonhuman animals harboring an intact human APP gene, either a wild-type allele, a disease-associated allele, or a combination of these, or a mutated rodent (e.g., murine) allele which comprises sequence modifications which correspon to a human APP sequence.
- a mutated rodent e.g., murine
- Cell strains and cell lines e.g., astroglial cells
- the methods provide for transferring the large transgenes and large homologous targeting constructs by a lipofection method, such as co-lipofection, wherein a second unlinked polynucleotide i transferred into the mammalian cells along with the large transgene and/or large homologous targeting construct.
- a lipofection method such as co-lipofection
- the second polynucleotide confers a selectable phenotype (e.g., resistance to G418 selection) to cells which have taken up and integrated the polynucleotide sequence(s) .
- yeast-derived YAC sequences may b removed by restriction enzyme digestion and separation (e.g, pulsed gel electrophoresis) .
- the large transgene(s) and/or homologous targeting construct(s) are generally mixed with th unlinked second polynucleotide (e.g., a neo R expression cassette to confer a selectable phenotype) and contacted with a cationic lipid (e.g., DOGS, DOTMA, DOTAP) to form cationic lipid—DNA complexes which are contacted with mammalian cells (e.g., ES cells) in conditions suitable for uptake of the DNA into the cells (e.g., culture medium, physiological phosphate buffered saline, serum-free ES medium) .
- a cationic lipid e.g., DOGS, DOTMA, DOTAP
- cells harboring the large transgene or large homologous targeting construct concomitantly harbor at least one copy of the seco polynucleotide, so that selection for cells harboring the second polynucleotide have a significant probability of also harboring at least one copy of the large transgene or large homologous targeting construct, generally as an integrated o homologously recombined segment of an endogenous chromosomal locus.
- selection for the second polynucleotide generally also selects cells harboring the large transgene or large homologous targeting construct without requiring cumbersome polynucleotide linkag (i.e., ligation) of the large transgene or large homologous targeting construct to the second polynucleotide prior to lipofection.
- large segments of xenogenic DNA are rapidly and efficiently transferred into mammalian cells (e.g., murine E cells) without requiring linkage of a selectable marker gene and subsequent cloning.
- the invention also provides mammalian cells, preferably ES cells, harboring at least one copy of integrat or homologously recombined large xenogenic (preferably heterologous) mammalian genomic DNA sequences linked to yeas derived YAC sequences.
- the large xenogenic (preferably heterologous) mammalian genomic DNA sequences comprise a complete structural gene, more preferably a complete transcriptional unit, and in one embodiment a complete human APP gene.
- the resultant transgeni mammalian cells also comprise at least one integrated copy o the unlinked second polynucleotide (e.g., the selectable marker) , which is usually nonhomologously integrated into at least one chromosomal locus, sometimes at a chromosomal locu distinct from that at which the large transgene(s) or large homologous targeting construct(s) has been incorporated.

- transgenesis compositions and homologous targeting compositions for transferring xenogenic, typically heterologous, large (i.e., 50 kb or more) polynucleotides into mammalian cells, such as ES cells for making transgenic nonhuman animals harboring at least one copy of at least one integrated large foreign transgene and/or harboring at least one homologously targeted construct in its genome.
- a transgenesis composition comprises: (1) at least one large transgene species, (2) at least one unlinked second polynucleotide species (such as an expression cassette containing the selectable marker gene neo ) , and (3) at least one species of suitable cationic lipid.
- a homologous targeting composition comprises: (1) at least one large homologous targeting construct species, (2) at least one unlinked second polynucleotide species (such as an expression cassette containing the selectable marker gene neo ) , and (3) at least one species of suitable cationic lipid.
- the large transgene or large homologous targeting construct spans an entire transcriptional unit.
- One preferred embodiment of a co-lipofection composition is a composition comprising: (1) a human APP gene sequence (or a modified murine or rat APP gene having a non-naturally occurring sequence corresponding to a human APP sequence) linked to yeast-derived YAC sequences, (2) an expression cassette encoding a selectable marker, and (3) a suitable cationic lipid.

- nucleic acid sequence has at least 70 percent sequence identity as compared to a reference sequence, typically at least 85 percent sequence identity, and preferably at least 95 percent sequence identity as compared to a reference sequence.
- the percentage of sequence identity is calculated excluding small deletions or additions which total less than 25 percent of the reference sequence.
- the reference sequence may be a subset of a larger sequence, such as a portion of a gene or flanking sequence, or a repetitive portion of a chromosome.
- the reference sequence is at least 18 nucleotides long, typically at least 30 nucleotides long, and preferably at least 50 to 100 nucleotides long.
- substantially complementary refers to a sequence that is complementary to a sequence that substantially corresponds to a reference sequence.
- Specific hybridization is defined herein as the formation of hybrids between a targeting transgene sequence (e.g., a polynucleotide of the invention which may include substitutions, deletion, and/or additions) and a specific target DNA sequence (e.g., a human APP gene sequence or human immunoglobulin gene sequence) , wherein a labeled targeting transgene sequence preferentially hybridizes to the target such that, for example, a single band corresponding to a restriction fragment of a gene can be identified on a Souther blot of DNA prepared from cells using said labeled targeting transgene sequence as a probe.
- a targeting transgene sequence e.g., a polynucleotide of the invention which may include substitutions, deletion, and/or additions
- a specific target DNA sequence e.g., a human APP gene sequence or human immunoglobulin gene sequence
- naturally-occurring refers to the fact that an object can be found in nature.
- a polypeptide or polynucleotid sequence that is present in an organism (including viruses) that can be isolated from a source in nature and which has no been intentionally modified by man in the laboratory is naturally-occurring.
- laboratory strains of rodents which may have been selectively bred according to classical genetics are considered naturally-occurring animals.
- cognate refers to a gene sequence that is evolutionarily and functionally related between species.
- human immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus is th cognate gene to the mouse immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus, since the sequences and structures of these two genes indicate that they are highly homologous and both genes encod a protein which functions to bind antigens specifically.
- xenogenic is defined in relation to a recipient mammalian host cell or nonhuman anima and means that an amino acid sequence or polynucleotide sequence is not encoded by or present in, respectively, the naturally-occurring genome of the recipient mammalian host cell or nonhuman animal.
- Xenogenic DNA sequences are foreign DNA sequences; for example, human APP genes or immunoglobulin genes are xenogenic with respect to murine ES cells; also, fo illustration, a human cystic fibrosis-associated CFTR allele is xenogenic with respect to a human cell line that is homozygous for wild-type (normal) CFTR alleles.
- a cloned murine nucleic acid sequence that has been mutated is xenogenic with respec to the murine genome from which the sequence was originally derived, if the mutated sequence does not naturally occur in the murine genome.
- heterologous gene or “heterologous polynucleotide sequence” is defined in relation to the transgenic nonhuman organism producing such a gene product.
- a heterologous polypeptide also referred to as a xenogeneic polypeptide, is defined as a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence or an encoding DNA sequence corresponding to that of a cognate gene found in an organism not consisting of the transgenic nonhuman animal.
- a transgenic mouse harboring a human APP gene can be described as harboring a heterologous APP gene.
- a transgenic mouse harboring a human immunoglobulin gene can be described as harboring a heterologous immunoglobulin gene.
- a transgene containing various gene segments encoding a heterologous protein sequenc may be readily identified, e.g. by hybridization or DNA sequencing, as being from a species of organism other than th transgenic animal.
- expression of human APP amin acid sequences may be detected in the transgenic nonhuman animals of the invention with antibodies specific for human APP epitopes encoded by human AP gene segments.
- a cognate heterologous gene refers to a corresponding gene from another species; thus, if murine APP is the reference, human APP is a cognate heterologous gene (as is porcine, ovine, or rat APP, along with AP genes from other species) .
- targeting construct refers to a polynucleotide which comprises: (1) at least one homology region having a sequence that is substantially identical to or substantially complementary to a sequence present in a host cell endogenous gene locus, and (2) a targeting region which becomes integrated into a host cell endogenous gene locus by homologous recombination between a targeting construct homology region and said endogenous gene locus sequence. If the targeting construct is a "hit-and-run or "in-and-out" type construct (Valancius and Smithies (1991) Mol. Cell. Biol. 11: 1402; Donehower et al. (1992) Nature 356 215; (1991) J. NIH Res.
- a targeting region is only transiently incorporated into the endogenous gene locus and is eliminated from the host genome by selection.
- a targeting region may comprise a sequence tha is substantially homologous to an endogenous gene sequence and/or may comprise a nonhomologous sequence, such as a selectable marker (e.g., neo , tk , gpt) .
- selectable marker e.g., neo , tk , gpt
- targeting construct does not necessarily indicate that the polynucleotide comprises a gene which becomes integrated into the host genome, nor does it necessarily indicate that the polynucleotide comprises a complete structural gene sequence.
- targeting construct is synonymous with the term “targeting transgene” as used herein.
- homology region and “homology clamp” as used herein refer to a segment (i.e., a portion) of a targeting construct having a sequence that substantially corresponds to, or is substantially complementary to, a predetermined endogenous gene sequence, which can include sequences flanking said gene.
- a homology region is generally at least about 100 nucleotides long, preferably at least about 250 to 500 nucleotides long, typically at least about 1000 nucleotides long or longer.
- homology clamp does not necessarily connote formation of a base-paired hybrid structure with an endogenous sequence. Endogenous gene sequences that substantially correspond to, or are substantially complementary to, a transgene homology region are referred to herein as "crossover target sequences" or "endogenous target sequences.”
- minilocus refers to a heterologous gene construct wherein one or more nonessential segments of a gene are deleted with respect to the naturally-occurring gene.
- deleted segments are intronic sequences of at least about 100 basepairs to several kilobases, and may span up to several tens of kilobases or more. Isolation and manipulation of large (i.e., greater tha about 50 kilobases) targeting constructs is frequently difficult and may reduce the efficiency of transferring the targeting construct into a host cell. Thus, it is frequently desirable to reduce the size of a targeting construct by deleting one or more nonessential portions of the gene.
- a human immunoglobulin heavy chain minigene may comprise a deletion o an intronic segment between the J gene segments and the ⁇ constant region exons of the human heavy chain immunoglobulin gene locus.
- a deletion of the intronic sequence may be produced by: (1) digesting the cloned DNA with the appropriate restriction enzymes, (2) separating the restriction fragments (e.g., by electrophoresis) , (3) isolating the restriction fragments encompassing the essential exons and regulatory elements, an (4) ligating the isolated restriction fragments to form a minigene wherein the exons are in the same linear order as i present in the germline copy of the naturally-occurring gene.
- ligation of partial genomic clones which encompass essential exons but which lack portio of intronic sequence will be apparent t those of skill in the art (e.g., ligation of partial genomic clones which encompass essential exons but which lack portio of intronic sequence) .
- the gene segments comprising a minigene will be arranged in the same linear order as is present in the germline gene, however, this will not always be the case.
- Some desired regulatory elements e.g., enhancers, silencers
- an enhancer that is located 3 • to a promoter in germline configuration might be located 5' to the promoter i a minigene.
- some genes may have exons which are alternatively spliced at the RNA level, and thus a minigene may have fewer exons and/or exons in a different linear order than the corresponding germline gene and still encode a functional gene product.
- a cDNA encoding a gene product may also be used to construct a minigene. However, since it is generally desirable that the heterologous minigene be expressed similarly to the cognate naturally-occurring nonhuman gene, transcription of a cDNA minigene typically is driven by a linked gene promoter and enhancer from the naturally-occurring gene.
- the term “large transgene” or “large homologous targeting construct” generally refers to polynucleotides that are larger than 50 kb, usually larger than 100 kb, frequently larger than 260 kb, occasionally as large as 500 kb, and sometimes as large as 1000 kb or larger.
- transcriptional unit or
- transcriptional complex refers to a polynucleotide sequence that comprises a structural gene (exons) , a cis-acting linked promoter and other cis-acting sequences necessary for efficient transcription of the structural sequences, distal regulatory elements necessary for appropriate tissue-specific and developmental transcription of the structural sequences, and additional cis sequences important for efficient transcription and translation (e.g., polyadenylation site, mRNA stability controlling sequences) .
- linked means in polynucleotide linkage (i.e., phosphodiester linkage).
- Unlinked means not linked to another polynucleotide sequence; hence, two sequences are unlinked if each sequence has a free 5* terminus and a free 3' terminus.
- Embryonic stem cells are manipulated according to published procedures (Teratocarcinomas and Embryonic Stem Cells: A Practical Approach. E.J. Robertson, ed. , IRL Press, Washington, D.C.

- Oligonucleotides can be synthesized on an Applied Bio Systems oligonucleotide synthesizer according to specifications provided by the manufacturer. It has often been observed that cDNA-based transgenes are poorly expressed or inappropriately regulated. Genomic DNA-based transgenes (i.e., constructed from cloned genomic DNA sequences) which substantially retain the content and organization of the naturally-occurring gene locus are more likely to be correctly expressed, but are limited in siz by the cloning capacity of bacteriophage and plasmid/cosmid vectors.
- the yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) is a recently developed cloning vehicle with a capacity of approximately 2 megabases (Mb) (Burke et al.
- the ability to reproducibly and efficiently introduce YACs into transgenic mice can significantly surpass current transgene size limits.
- the invention is based on the unexpecte finding that large (i.e., greater than about 50 kb) cloned polynucleotides can be efficiently transferred into mammalian cells, such as ES cells, and are incorporated into at least one chromosomal location and stably replicated as a segment o a chromosome.
- ES cells mammalian cells

- transgenes can be cloned in YACs and, after isolation from the host yeast cells, efficiently transferred into mammalian cells (e.g., ES cells) without prior separation of the desired transgene sequences from yeast-derived YAC sequences, and that the presence of such yeast-derived YAC sequences can be non-interfering (i.e., compatible with efficient transgene integration and transcription of a transgene transcriptional unit) .
- large transgenes with or without linked yeast-derived YAC sequences, can be efficiently co-transfected into mammalian cells (e.g., ES cells) with unlinked polynucleotides containing a selectable marker, such as, for example, a neo R expression cassette; and that selection for cells harboring the selectable marker gene and expressing the selectable marker are are highly likely to also harbor the large transgene species which has been co- lipofected, thus allowing efficient selection for large transgene DNA sequences without requiring prior ligation (and cloning) of a selectable marker gene.
- mammalian cells e.g., ES cells
- a selectable marker such as, for example, a neo R expression cassette

- a pluripotent cel line e.g., a murine ES cell line
- a large transgene can be nonhomologously integrated into a chromosomal location of the host genome.
- a homologous targeting construct (which may comprise a transgene) that contains at least one altered copy of a portion of a germline gene or a xenogenic cognate gene (including heterologous genes) can be introduced into the genome of embryonic stem cells.
- the introduced DNA is either nonhomologously integrated into chromosomal location or homologously recombines with the endogenous (i.e., naturally occurring) copy of the mouse gene replacing it with the altered construct.
- th newly engineered genetic sequence(s) are injected into a host mouse blastocyst, which is reimplanted into a recipient female. Some of these embryos develop into chimeric mice tha possess a population of germ cells partially derived from the mutant cell line. Therefore, by breeding the chimeric mice it is possible to obtain a new line of mice containing the introduced genetic lesion (reviewed by Capecchi et al. (1989) Science 244: 1288, incorporated herein by reference) .
- targeting efficiency generally increases with the length of the targeting transgene portion (i.e., homology region) that is substantially complementary to a reference sequence present in the target DNA (i.e., crossover target sequence).
- transgenes which encode a gene product that is xenogenic (e.g., heterologous) to a nonhuman host species.

- transgenes encoding heterologous proteins may be targeted by employing a homologous gene targeting construct targeted adjacent to the endogenous transcriptional regulatory sequences, so that the operable linkage of a regulatory sequence occurs upon integration of the transgene into a targeted endogenous chromosomal location of the ES cell.
- a selectable marker gene expression cassette typically comprises a promoter which is operational in the targeted host cell (e.g., ES cell) linked to a structural sequence that encodes a protein or polypeptide that confers a selectable phenotype on the targeted host cell, and a polyadenylation signal.
- a promoter included in an expression cassette may be constitutive, cell type-specific, stage- specific, and/or modulatable (e.g., by hormones such as glucocorticoids; MMTV promoter) , but is expressed prior to and/or during selection.
- An expression cassette can optionally include one or more enhancers, typically linked upstream of the promoter and within about 3-10 kilobases.
- homologous recombination at the targeted endogenous site(s) can be chosen to place the selectable marker structural sequence downstream of a functional endogenous promoter, and it may be possible for th targeting construct replacement region to comprise only a structural sequence encoding the selectable marker, and rely upon an endogenous promoter to drive transcription (Doetschma et al.

- 5 ⁇ l of 2.5M NaCl and 95 ⁇ l- of 100% EtOH were added to each well.
- the dishes were gently swirled at room temperature for 60 minutes to precipitate the DNA.
- the wells were then rinsed 5 times with 70% EtOH, and dried at 37°C.
- the DNAs were resuspended overnight in lOO ⁇ l of H 2 0 at 37°C in a humidified incubator.
- the individual DNA samples were pooled in rows and columns for PCR (Fig. 2) , and the pools analyzed for APP sequences by PCR, using the following primers (adapted from Fidani et al.. Human Molecular Genetics 1, 165-168, 1992):
- APP-17B 5-GTA ACC CAA GCA TCA TGG AAG C-3' APP-PA/PB2 denote primers specific for the promoter region of the human APP gene, APP7A/7B are specific for exon 7, and APP17A/17B are specific for exon 17.
- PCR analysis of the pools indicated 42 clones which potentially carried both promoter and exon 17 sequences (Fig. 3) .
- These clones were expanded in culture, and frozen in vials in liquid nitrogen. These cells were mounted in agarose blocks for PFG analysis, and harvested for RNA isolation.
- the integrity of the APP YAC carried by ES clones was first estimated using a rare cutter fingerprint technique as follows. Restriction enzymes which infrequently cut human DNA were used to define patterns of fragments which hybridize to a human alu fragment probe. Rare cutters often contain th dinucleotide CpG, and mammalian cells often methylate CpG dinucleotides rendering most restriction sites containing the refractory to digestion. However, yeast cells do not methylate CpGs, and thus the pattern of CpG containing restriction sites in a given fragment will depend on whether the fragment is propagated as a YAC in yeast or within a mammalian cell line. Thus, only rare cutter enzymes without CpG in their recognition sequence were used to generate a diagnostic pattern of alu-containing fragments from the YAC.
- B142F9 agarose blocks were digested completely with the restriction enzymes Sfi I, Pac I, Swa I, Pme I, and Apa I, and analyzed by PFGE Southern blotting using total human DNA as a probe for Alu fragments (Fig. 5) .
- the pattern of bands generated by Sfi I digestion was used as a reference pattern, since there was an even distribution of bands from 30 kb to 220 kb. If a YAC were to integrate intact into ES cells, Sfi I digestion would be expected to generate a similar pattern o bands, with the exception of the terminal fragments. The terminal fragments could be easily identified by reprobing th Sfi I digest with pBR322 sequences.
- B142F9 blocks were digested with a range of Sfi I concentrations, separated by PFGE, and probed with either the 2.5 kb (trp arm specific) or the 1.6 kb (ura arm specific) Ba HI-Pvu II fragment of pBR322, such that at a particular level of partial digestion, a ladder of bands were generated. Each band differed from its nearest neighbor by the distance to th neighboring Sfi I sites (Fig. 6) .
- the six ES lines were digested to completion with Sfi I and probed under high stringency conditions with total human DNA. Of the six lines, only three (24, 176, 230) showe a pattern of bands consistent with the reference pattern from the APP YAC.
- the rare cutter fingerprinting approach does no require any knowledge of the sequence of the fragment cloned in the YAC, and is thus applicable to the analysis of any YAC containing human DNA. Further, if probes for repetitive elements from other species which were not found in the targe mammalian cell line were available, this approach could be used to analyze the structure of YACs containing other foreig DNAs into other mammalian cell lines. Transcriptional analysis of APP YAC containing ES clones
- the 3* end nucleotide of each oligo was chosen such that it was specific for the human cDNA sequence and not the corresponding mouse cDNA sequence.
- PCR oligos specific for mouse APP cDNA were also prepared, human APP specific oligos: APP-HAS1: 5'-CAG GAA TTC CAC CAC AGA GTC TGT GGA A-3' APP-HAS2: 5'-CAG GAT CCG TGT CTC GAG ATA CTT GTC A-3' mouse APP specific oligos:
- APP-MAS2 5'-CAG GAT CCG TGT CTC CAG GTA CTT GTC G-3 '
- Clones 24, 176, and 230 showed the expected PCR bands indicative of alternatively spliced human APP transcripts encoding the 770, 751, and 695 amino acid forms o the protein (Fig. 7).
- Clones 23, 213, and 219 did not contai PCR detectable transcript, and also served as a negative control, indicating that the human APP specific oligos did no amplify bands from mouse APP transcripts endogenous to the ES cell lines.
- the RT-PCR analysis confirmed and validated the results of the rare cutter fingerprint analysis which predicted that clones 24, 176, and 230 contained the intact YAC whereas clones 23, 213, and 219 did not. Quantitative analysis of APP ⁇ transcript in ES cells
- RNase protection assays are used to quantitate the alternatively spliced human APP transcripts in the ES lines.
- the RNase probe was generated by cloning the 310 bp RT-PCR product as a Eco RI-Bam HI fragment into the vector pSP72 (Fig. 8) .
- the resultant plasmid, pHAPP is linearized at the Hpa I site, an antisense transcript is generated from the SP6 promoter.
- RNase protection assays are performed according to standard protocols (Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning). Alternatively, SI nuclease protection analysis is used to quantitate the transcripts.
- pHAPP is digested with Xho I and Hpa I to release a 446 bp fragment.
- the double stranded fragment is end-labelled with Klenow, denatured, hybridized to RNA samples from the ES lines carrying human AP sequences, and SI analysis performed according to standard methods (Sambrook, et al.. Molecular Cloning).
- human APP protein can be determined by immunoprecipitation of human APP using antibodies specific for human APP protein from ES cell lines and tissue of transgenic animals. Such antibodies may also permit direct detection of human APP by standard immunohistochemical analysis of tissue sections. Analysis of human APP expression in transgenic mice The qualitative and quantitative assays described above are also applicable to the analysis of the human APP gene in tissues of the transgenic mice derived from these ES lines. Production of chimeric founders and germline transmission of the APP YAC
- Clones 23, 213 and 219 were injected into blastocysts to generate chimeric founder animals as described (Robertson, ed. Teratocarcinomas and Embryonic Stem Cells) . Founders are bred to wild type mice to generate FI animals carrying the APP YAC. Mouse models of Alzheimer's Disease
- Overexpression of the wild type human (or mouse) AP protein may result in phenotypes characteristic of Alzheimer' Disease, including neurofibrillary tangle formation, plaque formation, and neurological dysfunction.
- different mouse lines expressing the APP YAC can be interbred to increase the number, and hence expression, of human APP genes.
- mutations identified as associated with Familial Alzheimer's Disease may be introduced into the human APP gene contained on the YAC using standard yeast molecular genetic techniques such as insertion/eviction of a plasmid carrying a subcloned fragment of the APP gene containing the mutation, or by oligonucleotide directed transformation of yeast (Guthrie and Fink, Guide to Yeast Molecular Genetics and Molecular Biology) .
- yeast molecular genetic techniques such as insertion/eviction of a plasmid carrying a subcloned fragment of the APP gene containing the mutation, or by oligonucleotide directed transformation of yeast (Guthrie and Fink, Guide to Yeast Molecular Genetics and Molecular Biology) .
- YACs carrying these mutated APP genes can be introduced into transgenic mic using procedures described above.
- yeast chromosomal DNA need be introduced by the co-lipofection method as the YAC(s) are typically first isolated from yeast chromosomes by a separation method, such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) .
- PFGE pulsed-field gel electrophoresis
- the YAC was introduced into ES cell by co-lipofection with an unlinked selectable marker plasmid.
- the co-lipofection strategy differs from lipofection of modified YACs in that retrofitting vectors do not need to be constructed or recombined into the YAC, and YACs carried in recombination deficient hosts can be used.
- YACs In contrast to microinjection approaches, it is likely that larger YACs can be introduced by co-lipofection than microinjection due to th technical hurdles in purification of intact YAC DNA and because of the high shear forces imparted on the DNA during microinjection. Furthermore, unlike fusion of yeast spheroplasts with mammalian cells where some of the yeast chromosomes integrate with the YAC 5 ' 6 , no yeast chromosomal DNA is introduced in co-lipofection since the YAC is first isolated by pulsed field gel electrophoresis.
- Transgenic mice were produced by blastocyst injection of ES cells carrying an intact YAC.
- the YAC was ⁇ maintained intact through the germline, and human heavy chain antibody subunits were detected in the serum of transgenic offspring.
- Human Hee y Chain Gene Fragment The 85 kb Spe 1 ⁇ ragment of the unrearranged human immunoglobulin heavy chain locus was isolated.
- the 85kb Sp I fragment of the human heavy chain immunoglobulin (H) chain gene contains at least one of each element required for correct rearrangement and expression of a human IgM heavy chain molecule.
- An 85kb Spe I restriction fragment of the human heavy chain immunoglobulin gene contains V H 6, the functional diversity (D) segments, all six joining (J) segments, and th C ⁇ constant region segment (Hofker et al. (1989) Proc. natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 86: 5587; Berman et al. (1988) EMBO J. 2: 727; Shin et al. (1991) EMBO J. 10: 3641). Fresh human sper was harvested and genomic DNA prepared in agarose blocks as described in Strauss et al. (1992) Mamm. Genome 2 . : 150) .
- One positive clone (Jl) was identified among approximately 18,000 primary transformants.
- J1.3P yeast itochondrial DNA ofte obscured the YAC on pulsed field gel electrophoresis
- a r° petite variant lacking mitochondrial DNA was selected by EtBr treatment, and denoted J1.3P.
- One subclone, J1.3P was mounted in agarose blocks at 3.5 x IO 9 cells/ml and intact yeast chromosomal DNA was prepared (Smith et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 87: 8242).
- the YAC DNA was isolat in a 3-4mm wide gel slice from a low melting point preparati CHEF gel (Biorad) .
- the gel slice was equilibrated in b- agarase buffer (Gelase, Epicentre Technologies) , melted at 70°C for 20 minutes, cooled to 45°C, and digested with 10 units of agarase overnight at 45"C. Characterization of YAC J1.3P The authenticity of the J1.3P insert was determined by restriction mapping and Southern analysis. The ends of the insert were subcloned, using the bacterial selectable markers in the centromeric and acentromeric arms of pYACneo. Fine structure restriction analyses of the terminal fragments were entirely consistent with published maps and sequences of the region (Fox et al. Analysis and manipulation of yeast mitochondrial genes. In Guide to Yeast Genetics and Molecular Biology (1991) eds.
- Plasmid is a 5 kb plasmid containing an expression cassette consisting of the neo gene under the transcriptional control of the mouse phosphoglycerate kinase-1 promoter and the PGK-1 poly (A) site (Tybulewicz et al. (1991) Cell 40: 271) .
- the plasmid pYPNN is a variant of pYACneo containing the PGKneo cassette in place of the SV40 promoter-neo r cassette, constructed by exchange of a 4.5kb Sal I-Apa I fragment of pYACneo for a 1.5kb Sal I-Apa I fragment of a containing the PGK promotor, neo r coding region, and the PGKp(A) signal.
- the plasmids were linearized with Sal I (a) or Not I (pYPNN) .
- AB-1 embryonic stem (ES) cells on mitotically inactivated SNL 76/7 fibroblast feeder layers were trypsinize to yield a single cell suspension, washed with serum- containing medium, and resuspended in serum-free DMEM (Gibco)
- DMEM serum-free DMEM
- 9 ml of cell suspension containing 3 x 10 6 ES cells and about 1 x 10 5 feeder c&lls were mixed with 1 ml of the DNA-lipid mixture in a 60 mm petri dish (Falcon 1007; Becton Dickinson) and incubated for 4 hours at 37° C in a humidified 5% C0 2 atmosphere.
- pYPN a 12 kb derivative of pYACneo carrying the PGKneo cassette i place of the SV40-neo cassette
- ickensian a 5 kb plasmid carrying the same PGKneo cassette
- the YAC:plasmid molar ratio was 1:8 for pYPNN and 1:4 for ickensian.
- Two cationic lipid formulations were tested, DOGS (Transfectam; ProMega) and DOTMA (Lipofectin; BRL) .
- DOGS Transfectam; ProMega
- DOTMA Lipofectin; BRL
- Simi. - transfection efficiencies were obtained for DOGS A nd DOTMA with linearized plasmids, but DOGS was ultimately chosen for the YAC experiments because its cationic moiety is spermine, obviatin the need for exogenously added spermine as a DNA protectant, and because DOGS was not toxic to ES cells at the concentrations used.
- each lipofection contained an estimated 10-fold excess (1 ⁇ g) of sheared herring sperm carrier DNA to provide a baseline level of DNA.
- G418-resistant clones were dispersed with trypsin and the cells from each clone were divided into one well of a 96-well plate that was frozen and a second 96-well or 24-well plate used for preparation of DNA for screening by Southern .analysis. Positive clones were thawed and expanded for further analysis.
- Clones containing intact YAC sequences were injecte into blastocysts to produce chimeric founder animals, which were bred with C57BL/6 wild type mice and J H " mice, which carry targeted inactivations of both copies of the mouse heav ' chain gene. Thymic cells from transgenic offspring were mounted in agarose blocks for pulsed field gel electrophoresi and Southern analysis to confirm transmission of the intact YAC.
- ELISA assays Human mu chain was detected using a 2-site ELISA assay. Polyvinyl chloride microtiter plates were coated with mouse monoclonal anti-human IgM clone CH6 (The Binding Site, San Diego, CA) at 1.25 ⁇ g/ml in 100 ⁇ l PBS by overnight incubation at 4 C. Plates were blocked by 1 hr incubation with 5% chicken serum (JRH, Lexana, KS) in PBS. Following 6 washes with PBS, 0.5% tween-20, serum samples and standards were diluted in 100 ⁇ l PBS, 0.5% Tween-20, 5% chicken serum (PTCS) and incubated in the wells for 1 hr at room temp.
- 5% chicken serum JRH, Lexana, KS
- Purified human myeloma-derived IgM, kappa (Calbiochem, La Jolla, CA) was used as a standard. Plates were then washed 6 times with PBS, 0.5% tween-20 before addition of peroxidase conjugated rabbit anti-human IgM, Fc5u fragment specific antibody diluted 1/1000 in 100 ⁇ l PTCS. After another 1 hr incubation at room temperature, the wells were washed 6 times and developed, for 1/2 hr with 100 ⁇ l ABTS substrate (Sigma) .
- Assay plates were read at 415-490 nm on a Vmax microplate reader (Molecular Devices, Menlo Park, CA) , and IgM concentration determined from a 4-parameter logistic curve fi of the standard values. A level of 4.89 ng/ml in serum samples is routinely detected by this assay and differentiate from background by at least 3 standard deviations.
- VH6 (PCR) : -* -* + -* - + + - nd - + - + + nd - +
- the integrity of the 3' end of the insert region in the four ES lines was assessed by Southern analysis using the 10.5kb Nde I-Spe I terminal fragment isolated by vector recircularization as probe.
- Three bands are expected from a Xho I digest of the parent YAC: a very large D-J-C ⁇ band (>30 kb) , a 4.5 kb C ⁇ -CS band, and an 8.9 kb C ⁇ S-vector band.
- a double digest with Xho I and Spe I is expected to reduce the size of the 8.9 kb band to 4.1 kb.
- the 4.5 kb and 8.9 bands are present in the Xho I digests, while the 4.5 kb and 4.1 kb bands are present in the Xho I-Spe I digests of the parent YAC.
- line 18 contained the parental YAC banding pattern indicative of an intact 3*-end.
- the presence of an 8.9 kb band is consistent with the retention of the vector arm Xho I site in the ES line, suggesting that very little of the telomeric region had been lost in this clone. Loss of YAC terminal sequences would be expected to result in aberrant Xho I bands.
- clone 14 lacked the 4.5 kb Xho I band, while clones 12 and 21 contained aberrantly short Xho I bands, indicating rearranged or deleted 3' end regions in these ES clones.
- a similar analysis of 5 » end integrity was not possible due to repetitive elements in the region.
- PCR and Southern analysis using the V H 6 PCR product as probe indicated that clone 18 contained V H 6 sequences, while clones 14, 12, and 21 did not (Table 2).
- YAC structure in ES cells is greatly facilitated by a low, preferably single, copy of the YAC.
- the D region, pulsed field gel analysis, and 3' end analyses of the ES lines are consistent with a low or single copy integration of the YAC.
- Analysis of clones 18, 371, and 463 for a diagnostic 3' end flanking band showed that clones 18 and 371 carried a single copy of the YAC insert, while 463 may have an additional intact or partially intact copy. Production of chimeras and germline transmission of the YAC
- Blastocysts were injected with ES lines 18, 371, an 463. Chimeric founder animals ranging from 10% to 95% ES cel contribution to coat color were derived from all three lines. The oldest animal, a 40% chimeric male derived from ES line 18, transmitted the ES cell genotype to 20 of 73 offspring. Eleven of the 20 agouti offspring were positive for an intact D region fingerprint, consistent with Mendelian segregation o a hemizygous YAC transgene allele. In addition, pulsed field Southern analysis using the D region probe demonstrated a single 85 kb Spe I band in transgenic offspring, indicating that the YAC was stably maintained through the germline. Thus, co-lipofection of YACs into ES cells does not abrogate ES cell totipotency.
- Southern analysis of integration sites for the co- lipofected selectable marker indicated integration of 2 to 10 plasmid copies. Because it is possible that the marker plasmids could be a source of mutations if they were to inser at multiple loci, the integration sites of the plasmid were tracked by Southern analysis for plasmid sequences. Since pYPNN and the YAC vector arms lack Eco Rl sites and contain pBR322 sequences, each Eco Rl band which hybridized to a pBR322 probe represents the integration of a separate intact or fragmented copy of pYPNN or the YAC vector arms.
- Co-integration of differen DNAs have been observed in transgenic mice produced by microinjection of zygotes, and it is expected that co- integration of plasmid DNAs would be no more mutagenic for co lipofection than for zygote microinjection.
- the herring sperm carrier DNA had also co-integrated with the YAC, and may be a source of Eco Rl sites in the Southern analysis. Since co-integrated carrier DNA may-potentially adversely affect YAC transgene function, it is frequently preferable to omit carrier DNA.
- Preliminary experiments with a 650 kb YAC indicate that carrier DNA is not required for efficient lipofection of intact YACs into ES cells. This preliminary work also suggests that the size limit of YACs which can be successfully co-lipofected into ES cells is at least 650 kb. Serum expression of human immunoglobulins in transgenic mice
- Line 18 transgenic mice were assayed for human mu chain in the serum by ELISA. Human mu heavy chain was detected in the serum of transgenic offspring (Table 3) . Although the human mu serum levels in the transgenics were clearly within the detectable range, they were very low compared to serum levels of endogenous mouse IgM. The low level of transgene expression is due in part to competition from the endogenous heavy chain gene. The transgene was introduced into a background in which the endogenous heavy chain alleles are inactivated, and in this mouse, the human m serum levels were elevated approximately 10 fold (Table 3) .
- Fluorescence-activated cell-sorting (FACS) analysis was performed on mice positive for the YAC containing the 85k heavy chain gene fragment and homozygous for a functionally disrupted ("knocked-out") endogenous murine immunoglobulin heavy chain gene by disruption of the J H region by homologous gene targeting.
- the mice had a single copy of the YAC transgene and lacked functional murine heavy chain alleles.
- the FACS analysis used antibodies to detect human mu chains, among others, and showed that about 60 cells per 10,000 total peripheral lymphocytes from the mice expressed a human mu chain immunoglobulin.
- This level is approximately 1-2 percen of the number of cells that express murine mu chains in a wild-type (non-transgenic/non-knockout) mouse spleen.
- FACS detected human mu chain expression in cells obtained from the spleen and peritoneal cavity of the YAC + /J H ⁇ mice.
