Soluble tandem selectin glycoprotein ligand molecules
View Patent ↗Recombinant proteins comprised of multiple selectin binding domains derived from the glycopeptide PSGL-1, in a novel tandem configuration, are disclosed, including their fusions with immunoglobulins and/or other polypeptides. Polynucleotides encoding such proteins, compositions and kits containing such proteins, and methods of using such proteins are also disclosed.
1. A soluble tandem selectin glycoprotein ligand (TSGL) molecule comprising at least two sulfated P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) domains combined in a tandem configuration along the same polypeptide chain, wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises amino acids 10 to 16 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
2. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 fused to a non-TSGL polypeptide.
3. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 fused to a non-TSGL polypeptide, wherein the non-TSGL polypeptide is an immunoglobulin Fc.
4. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises one or more additional amino acids.
5. A soluble tandem selectin glycoprotein ligand (TSGL) immunoglobulin Fc fusion molecule comprising at least two P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) domains combined in a tandem configuration along the same polypeptide chain, wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises amino acids 10 to 16 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
6. The TSGL immunoglobulin Fc fusion molecule of claim 5 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises one or more additional amino acids.
7. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises amino acids 9 to 19 of SEQ ID NO:2.
8. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises amino acids 6 to 19 of SEQ ID NO:2.
9. The TSGL molecule of claim 1 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
10. The TSGL immunoglobulin Fc fusion molecule of claim 5 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises amino acids 10 to 16 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
11. The TSGL immunoglobulin Fc fusion molecule of claim 5 , wherein each of the PSGL-1 domains comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
12. The TSGL immunoglobulin Fc fusion molecule of claim 5 , comprising (1) a first PSGL-1 domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; (2) a first linker sequence; (3) a second PSGL-1 domain comprising amino acids 9 to 19 of SEQ ID NO: 2; (4) a second linker sequence; and (5) an immunoglobulin Fc fragment.
