Application of a nanobody targeting on IL-6RA
View Patent ↗The present invention discloses a nanobody targeting IL-6Rα protein and uses thereof, wherein the heavy chain variable region of the nanobody comprises three complementary determining regions, CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, wherein CDR1 has an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO. 2, CDR2 has an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO. 3, and CDR3 has an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO. 4. With high affinity to IL-6Rα protein and high stability and water solubility, the nanobody can be used in the development of pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of IL-6-mediated related diseases or conditions, as well as in the development of reagents or kits for the detection of IL-6Rα, which can provide potentially highly effective antibodies for the study of IL-6-mediated related diseases, and provide new therapeutic strategies and targets for autoimmune diseases or tumors.
1. A nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein, wherein the nanobody comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising CDR1 of SEQ ID NO.2, CDR2 of SEQ ID NO.3, and CDR3 of SEQ ID NO.4.
2. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 1 , wherein the nanobody has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO. 1.
3. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 1 , wherein the nanobody further comprises an Fc domain of IgG.
4. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 3 , wherein the Fc domain is an IgG1 Fc domain.
5. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 4 , wherein the IgG1 Fc domain is a human IgG1 Fc domain.
6. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 5 , wherein the amino acid sequence of the human IgG1 Fc domain is as shown in SEQ ID NO.5.
7. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 6 , wherein the amino acid sequence of the nanobody is shown in SEQ ID NO.6.
8. A nucleotide molecule encoding the nanobody of claim 1 .
9. An expression vector, wherein the expression vector contains the nucleotide molecule of claim 8 .
10. A host cell, wherein the host cell is a host cell for expression of an exogenous protein, which contains the expression vector of claim 9 .
11. The host cell of claim 10 , wherein the host cell is a bacterial, yeast, insect cell, or mammalian cell.
12. A pharmaceutical composition, wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises the nanobody of claim 1 , further comprising at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
13. The nanobody targeting an IL-6Rα protein of claim 1 , wherein the IL-6Rα protein is a human-derived IL-6Rα protein or a murine-derived IL-6Rα protein.
