CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS


[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/680,736, filed
June 5, 2018, which application is incorporated herein by reference. Priority is claimed pursuant
to 35 U.S.C. § 119. The above noted patent application is incorporated by reference as if set
forth fully herein

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] This invention relates to methods and compositions for the control of microorganisms in
aquaculture and uses thereof.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Losses to the aquaculture industry following contamination of livestock with pathogens
are a global burden. With a growing global population and no significant increase in the amount
of farm land available to agriculture, there is a need to produce larger quantities of food without
using more space. Aquaculture is an especially attractive use of this space because the feed
conversion ratio for aquaculture organisms is roughly 1:1, whereas the ratio for larger farmed
sources of protein is 1:3 or higher . Losses to the global aquaculture industry due to pathogens
is estimated to be around 40%, or $6 billion USD per annum @ Traditional treatment of animals

with antibiotics is a major contributor to the emergence of multi-drug resistant organisms and is
widely recognized as an unsustainable solution to controlling contamination of livestock. There
is a need for the development of pathogen-specific molecules that inhibit infection or association
of the pathogen with the host, without encouraging resistance.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] With reference to the definitions set out below, described herein are polypeptides
comprising heavy chain variable region fragments (VuHs) whose intended use includes
applications in aquaculture, diagnostics, in vitro assays, feed, therapeutics, substrate
identification, nutritional supplementation, bioscientific and medical research, and companion

diagnostics. Also described herein are polypeptides comprising VyHs that bind to and decrease
the virulence of disease-causing agents in aquaculture. Further to these descriptions, set out
below are the uses of polypeptides that comprise VyHs in methods of reducing transmission and
severity of disease in host animals, including their use as an ingredient in a product. Further
described are the means to produce, characterize, refine and modify VuHs for this purpose

7) Antibodies
[0017] A schematic of camelid heavy chain only antibodies and their relationship to VyH
domains and complementarity determining regions (CDRs) is shown in FIG. 1. (Panel A). A
camelid heavy chain only antibody consists of two heavy chains linked by a disulphide bridge.
Each heavy chain contains two constant immunoglobulin domains (CH2 and CH3) linked
through a hinge region to a variable immunoglobulin domain (ViH). (Panel B) are derived from
single VyH domains. Each VyH domain contains an amino acid sequence of approximately 110-
130 amino acids. The VgH domain consists of the following regions starting at the N-terminus
(N): framework region 1 (FR1), complementarity-determining region 1 (CDR1), framework
region 2 (FR2), complementarity-determining region 2 (CDR2), framework region 3 (FR3),
complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3), and framework region 4 (FR4). The domain
ends at the C-terminus (C). The complementarity-determining regions are highly variable,
determine antigen binding by the antibody, and are held together in a scaffold by the framework
regions of the VyuH domain. The framework regions consist of more conserved amino acid
sequences; however, some variability exists in these regions.
[0018] As referred to herein “VyH” refers to an antibody or antibody fragment comprising a

class. Heavy chain antibodies retain specific binding to an antigen in the absence of any light
chain
[0020] As referred to herein “specific binding”, “specifically binds” or variations thereof refer to
binding that occurs between an antibody and its target molecule that is mediated by at least one
complementarity determining region (CDR) of the antibody’s variable region. Binding that is
between the constant region and another molecule, such as Protein A or G, for example, does not

constitute specific binding.


[0021] As referred to herein “antibody fragment” refers to any portion of a conventional or
heavy chain antibody that retains a capacity to specifically bind a target antigen and may include
WO 2020/008254 PCT/1B2019/000687

a single chain antibody, a variable region fragment of a heavy chain antibody, a nanobody, a
polypeptide or an immunoglobulin new antigen receptor (IgNAR)
[0022] As referred to herein an “antibody originates from a species” when any of the CDR
regions of the antibody were raised in an animal of said species. Antibodies that are raised in a
certain species and then optimized by an in vitro method (e.g., phage display) are considered to
have originated from that species.
[0023] As referred to herein “conventional antibody” refers to any full-sized immunoglobulin
that comprises two heavy chain molecules and two light chain molecules joined together by a
disulfide bond. In certain embodiments, the antibodies, compositions, feeds, products, and

WO 2020/008254 PCT/1B2019/000687

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION


[0027] Descriptions of the invention provided are to be interpreted in conjunction with the
definitions and caveats provided herein.
[0028] Some farmed aquatic organisms, such as some crustaceans, lack a true adaptive immune
response. Additionally, the administration of therapeutics by injection for small and intensely
reared organisms is cumbersome. For these reasons, vaccine-based approaches to protecting
farmed aquaculture organisms from pathogenic infection is ineffective. Secondly, the use of
antibiotics as growth promoters in animal feed has already been banned in Europe (effective
from 2006) in an effort to phase out antibiotics for non-medicinal purposes and limit
antimicrobial resistance. Indeed, many bacterial pathogens of aquatic organisms already harbor
resistance to common antibiotics. This underpins the need for the development of non-antibiotic
products to administer to aquatic organisms to prevent infection and promote growth.
[0029] Significant pathogens affecting farmed aquatic organisms include bacteria, such as
members of the Vibrio genus, among others, as well as viruses such as White Spot Syndrome
Virus (WSSV). Losses due to Vibrio parahaemolyticus, for example, first emerged in 2009 and
have been prevalent ever since ™. It was not until 2013 that V. parahaemolyticus was shown to
be the causative agent of Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND): a subtype of
Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS) that contributes approximately $1 billion USD loss to the
shrimp farming industry per annum “ . In 2015 it was demonstrated that the presence of the
PVA-1 plasmid and the toxins encoded (PirA and PirB) are directly responsible for AHPND
Once infected, organisms are up to 100% moribund within 3 days. V. parahaemolyticus is also a
prevalent human pathogen, responsible for gastrointestinal infection and septicemia after
exposure to contaminated fish or fisheries®. In addition to PirA and PirB, V. parahaemolyticus
produces several proteinaceous factors that have been demonstrated to facilitate host infection
and can be targeted to curb virulence.
[0030] WSSV infection is a longer-standing problem; having been identified in 1992 7 there is
still no effective means of controlling viral spread or infection in aquatic organisms. Cumulative
losses to the aquaculture industry as a consequence of WSSV are estimated at $15 billion USD
® Infected organisms are moribund within 3-5 days. The surface of the viral envelope is well
characterized and can be targeted to prevent infection.
[0031] Other disease-causing agents affecting farmed aquaculture organisms include bacteria
(such as Yersinia spp., Edwarsiella spp., Aeromonas spp., Streptococcus spp. and Rickettsia
spp.), viruses (such as White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV), Yellowhead virus, tilapia
iridovirus, epizootic hematopoietic necrosis virus (EHNV), infectious hematopoietic necrosis
virus (IHNV), infectious salmon anemia virus (ISAV), infectious pancreatic necrosis virus
WO 2020/008254 PCT/1B2019/000687

(IPNV), infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV), taura syndrome
virus (TSV) and white spot bacilloform virus (WSBV), hepatopancreatic parvo-like virus
(HPV), reo-like virus, monodon baculovirus (MBV), baculoviral midgut GI and necrosis virus
(BMN)), algae, prions, protists, parasites, fungi, peptides, proteins and nucleic acids. To our
knowledge, an effective, non-vaccine-based treatment against any of these disease-causing
agents has yet to be developed for commercial use.
[0032] Existing methods fail to acknowledge the limited immune development of aquatic
organisms affected by the pathogens listed above, and as such rely on the host organism to
generate protection against disease-causing agents. This approach is limited by the inadequacies
of the host organism’s immune system and therefore does not provide an effective means of
protection. This problem is circumvented by introducing exogenous peptides into the host that
neutralize the virulence and spread of the disease-causing agent without eliciting the host
immune response. Moreover, the methods described herein provide scope for the adaptation and
refinement of neutralizing peptides, which provides synthetic functionality beyond what the host
is naturally able to produce.
[0033] Antibody heavy chain variable region fragments (VyHs) are small (12-15 kDa) proteins
that comprise specific binding regions to antigens. When introduced into an animal, ViHs bind
and neutralize the effect of disease-causing agents i situ. Owing to their smaller mass, they are
less susceptible than conventional antibodies, such as previously documented IgYs, to cleavage
by enzymes found in host organisms, more resilient to temperature and pH changes, more
soluble, have low systemic absorption and are easier to recombinantly produce on a large scale,
making them more suitable for use in animal therapeutics than conventional antibodies
Antibodies for preventing or reducing virulence (summary)
[0034] In one aspect, the present invention provides a polypeptide or pluralities thereof
comprising a VyH or VyHs that bind disease-causing agents to reduce the severity and
transmission of disease between and across species. In certain embodiments, the VyH is
supplied to host animals. In certain embodiments, the VyH is an ingredient of a product.
Binding to reduce virulence
[0035] In another aspect, the present invention provides a polypeptide or pluralities thereof
comprising a VygH or VyHs that bind disease-causing agents, and in doing so, reduce the ability
of the disease-causing agent to exert a pathological function or contribute to a disease
phenotype. In certain embodiments, binding of the V4H(s) to the disease-causing agent reduces
the rate of replication of the disease-causing agent. In certain embodiments, binding of the
ViH(s) to the disease-causing agent reduces the ability of the disease-causing agent to bind to its
cognate receptor. In certain embodiments, binding of the Vy4H(s) to the disease-causing agent
WO 2020/008254 PCT/IB2019/000687
8

reduces the ability of the disease-causing agent to interact with another molecule or molecules
In certain embodiments, binding of the VyH(s) to the disease-causing agent reduces the mobility
or motility of the disease-causing agent. In certain embodiments, binding of the VyzH(s) to the
disease-causing agent reduces the ability of the disease-causing agent to reach the site of
infection. In certain embodiments, binding of the VyH(s) to the disease-causing agent reduces
the ability of the disease-causing agent to cause cell death.
Antibodies derived from llamas
[0036] In a further aspect, the present invention provides a method for the inoculation of
Camelid or other species with recombinant virulence factors, the retrieval of mRNA encoding
VuH domains from lymphocytes of the inoculated organism, the reverse transcription of mRNA
encoding VyH domains to produce cDNA, the cloning of cDNA into a suitable vector and the
recombinant expression of the VyH from the vector. In certain embodiments, the camelid can be

a dromedary, camel, llama, alpaca, vicuna or guanaco, without limitation. In certain

embodiments, the inoculated species can be, without limitation, any organism that can produce
single domain antibodies, including cartilaginous fish, such as a member of the Chondrichthyes
class of organisms, which includes for example sharks, rays, skates and sawfish. In certain
embodiments, the heavy chain antibody comprises a sequence set forth in Table 1. In certain
embodiments, the heavy chain antibody comprises an amino acid sequence with at least 80%,
90%, 95%, 97%, 99%, or 100% identity to any sequence disclosed in Table 1. In certain

embodiments, the heavy chain antibody possesses a CDRI1 set forth in Table 2. In certain
embodiments, the heavy chain antibody possesses a CDR2 set forth in Table 2. In certain
embodiments, the heavy chain antibody possesses a CDR3 set forth in Table 2

EXAMPLES

[0047] The following illustrative examples are representative of the embodiments of the
applications, systems and methods described herein and are not meant to be limiting in any way.
[0048] While preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown and described herein, it
will be obvious to those skilled in the art that such embodiments are provided by way of
example only. Numerous variations, changes, and substitutions will now occur to those skilled
in the art without departing from the invention. It should be understood that various alternatives
to the embodiments of the invention described herein may be employed in practicing the
invention,
1. Production of antigens
[0049] Recombinant antigens can be purified from an £. coli expression system. For example,
the gene for an antigen can be expressed at 18°C in £. coli BL21 (DE3) cells grown overnight in
autoinducing media (Formedium). Cells are then lysed by sonication in buffer A (250 mM
NaCl, 50 mM CaCl,, 20 mM Imidazole and 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) with 12.5 ug/ml DNase I,
and 1X Protease inhibitor cocktail (Bioshop). The lysate is cleared by centrifugation at 22000 x
g for 30 minutes at 4°C , and is then applied to a 5 ml HisTrap HP column (GE Healthcare) pre-
equilibrated with buffer A, washed with ten column volumes of buffer A and eluted with a
gradient of 0% to 60% (vol/vol) buffer B (250 mM NaCl, 50 mM CaCl,, 500 mM imidazole
and10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4). The protein is then dialyzed overnight in the presence of TEV
against buffer C (250 mM NaCl, 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4 and 5 mM B-mercaptoethanol) at 4°C
The dialyzed protein is applied to a HisTrap HP column (GE Biosciences) pre-equilibrated with
buffer C. 6xHis-tagged TEV and 6xHis-tag are bound to the column and the antigen is collected
in the flowthrough. The sample is dialyzed overnight against buffer D (5 mM NaCl and 10 mM
Tris pH 8.8) and then applied to a 5 ml HiTrap Q HP column (GE Healthcare). The protein is
eluted with a gradient of 0% to 50% (vol/vol) buffer E (1.0 M NaCl and 10 mM Tris pH 8.8).
Lastly, the elution is loaded onto a Superdex 75 Increase 10/300 GL gel filtration column (GE
Healthcare) using buffer F (400 mM NaCl and 20 mM HEPES pH 7.4). The protein sample is
then concentrated to 1 mg/mL using Amicon concentrators with appropriate molecular weight
cut-off (MWCO; Millipore). The purified protein is stored at =80°C.

2. Production of NBXs and panning


Llama immunization
[0050] A single llama is immunized with purified disease-causing agents, such as the antigens
listed, which may be accompanied by adjuvants. The llama immunization is performed using
100 pg of each antigen that are pooled and injected for a total of four injections. At the time of
injection, the antigens are thawed, and the volume increased to 1 ml with PBS. The 1 ml
antigen-PBS mixture is then mixed with 1 ml of Complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) or
Incomplete Freund’s adjuvant (IFA) for a total of 2 ml. A total of 2 ml is immunized per
injection. Whole llama blood and sera are then collected from the immunized animal on days 0,
28, 49, 70. Sera from days 28, 49 and 70 are then fractionated to separate VyH from
conventional antibodies. ELISA can be used to measure reactivity against target antigens in
polyclonal and VyH-enriched fractions. Lymphocytes are collected from sera taken at days 28,
49, and 70.

Panning

[0051] RNA isolated from purified llama lymphocytes is used to generate cDNA for cloning
into phagemids. The resulting phagemids are used to transform £. coli TG-1 cells to generate a
library of expressed VyH genes. The phagemid library size can be ~2.5 x 10” total transformants
and the estimated number of phagemid containing VyH inserts can be estimated to be ~100%.
High affinity antibodies are then selected by panning against the Vibrio or WSSV antigens used
for llama immunization. At least two rounds of panning are performed and antigen-binding
clones arising from rounds 2 or later are identified using phage ELISA. Antigen-binding clones
are sequenced, grouped according to their CDR regions, and prioritized for soluble expression in
E. coli and antibody purification.
[0052] Figure 2 shows the Phage ELISA results for all antibodies of this disclosure. Black bars
show binding to wells coated with the antigen specified in Tables 1 and 2 dissolved in
phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Grey bars are negative controls that show binding to wells
coated with PBS only. In all cases binding to the antigen target is at least 50% above binding to
the PBS-coated wells. Panel A shows the results for NBX0401 to NBX0406. Panel B shows the
results for NBX0601 to NBX0630. Panel C shows the results for NBX063 1 to NBX0637,

NBX0813 to NBX0825, NBX0845, NBX0846, and NBX0849. Panel D shows the results for

NBX0638 to NBX0650, and NBX0826 to NBX0844. Panel E shows the results for NBX0850 to

NBX0865, and NBX09001 to NBX09011. Panel F shows the results for NBX0722 to

NBX0725, NBX0730, NBX0738, NBX0739, NBX0745, and NBX0746.

Purification of VyHs from E. coli


[0053] TEV protease-cleavable, 6xHis-thioredoxin-NBX fusion proteins are expressed in the
cytoplasm of E. coli grown in autoinducing media (Formedium) for 24 hours at 30°C. Bacteria
are collected by centrifugation, resuspended in buffer A (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 250 mM
NaCl, 20 mM Imidazole) and lysed using sonication. Insoluble material is removed by
centrifugation and the remaining soluble fraction is applied to a HisTrap column (GE
Biosciences) pre-equilibrated with buffer A. The protein is eluted from the column using an
FPLC with a linear gradient between buffer A and buffer B (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 500 mM
NaCl, 500 mM Imidazole). The eluted protein is dialyzed overnight in the presence of TEV
protease to buffer C (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl). The dialyzed protein is applied to
a HisTrap column (GE Biosciences) pre-equilibrated with buffer C. 6xHis-tagged TEV and
6xHis-tagged thioredoxin are bound to the column and highly purified NBX is collected in the
flowthrough. NBX proteins are dialyzed overnight to PBS and concentrated to ~10 mg/ml
Purification of VyHs from P. pastoris
[0054] Pichia pastoris strain GS115 with constructs for the expression and secretion of 6xHis-
tagged VyH are grown for 5 days at 300C with daily induction of 0.5% (vol/vol) methanol
Yeast cells are removed by centrifugation and the NBX-containing supernatant is spiked with 10
mM imidazole. The supernatant is applied to a HisTrap column (GE Biosciences) pre-
equilibrated with buffer A (10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl). The protein is eluted from

the column using an FPLC with a linear gradient between buffer A and buffer B (10 mM
HEPES, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 500 mM Imidazole). NBX proteins are dialyzed overnight to
PBS and concentrated to ~1.5 mg/ml.
3. Protein Pull-downs
[0055] Approximately 0.1 mg of antigen is incubated with NBX at a 1:5 molar ratio in 200 pl of
binding buffer (10 mM phosphate buffer pH7.4 and 500 mM NaCl) for 30 minutes at room
temperature, and then applied onto a column containing Ni-NTA (nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid}
resin pre-equilibrated with the binding buffer. Protein mixture and the resin are incubated for 30
minutes before the resin is washed with the binding buffer and then with the binding buffer plus
20 mM Imidazole. Bound proteins are eluted with 100 pl of 1 M imidazole, pH 7.4. The
presence or absence of NBX in the various fractions is analyzed on an SDS-PAGE gel. A
protein solution containing only the NBX is also applied to a separate column to assess non-
specific binding of the NBX to the resin
[0056] Figure 3 shows representative results for four unique NBXs. For each of the four
antibodies shown, the lanes are as follows. (1) Starting material of PirA(*) and NBX(") mixture
prior to application to Ni-NTA resin. (2) Flow-through of PirA and NBX through the Ni-NTA

resin. (3) Final wash of the Ni-NTA resin prior to protein elution. (4) Elution of PirA and NBX
from the Ni-NTA resin. (5) Elution from Ni-NTA resin to which only NBX was applied. (6)
Final wash of Ni-NTA resin to which only NBX was applied. (7) NBX(") only mixture prior to

application to Ni-NTA resin. NBXs that can successfully be pulled down by PirA are those that
appear in the lane 4 elution but not in the lane 5 elution. For each gel a ladder of proteins of
known sizes in kilodaltons (kDa) are shown for reference.
4. Protein stability in shrimp intestinal tract fluid
[0057] Thaw frozen shrimp midgut extract and NBX at room temperature, and immediately
place on ice. Spin shrimp midgut extract and protein at 10,000 RCF for 1 minute to pellet and
remove any precipitation. Prechill PBS and saline on ice. Label and prechill 8 x 0.2 mL strip
tubes on ice. Set up two reactions in volumes of 10 pl on ice. The first reaction contains no
shrimp midgut extract and consists of 5 ug NBX in 3.2 L PBS and 4.8 pL of 150 mM NaCl.
The second reaction contains shrimp midgut extract and is generated using the following ratios:
2.4 uL shrimp midgut extract, 5 ug NBX in 0.8 pL PBS, and 4.8 uL of 150 mM NaCl. The
tubes are incubated on ice for 5 minutes (corresponds to time = 0 minutes in Figure 1) followed
by 26°C for up to 24 hours. The final incubation temperature (26°C) is the internal temperature
of a shrimp. After incubation, add 8 pL of preheated 2X SDS sample buffer to stop the reaction.
Boil at 95-100°C for 5 minutes. The stability of each NBXs is assessed by the presence or
absence of the NBX on an 18% SDS-PAGE gel.
[0058] Figure 4 shows representative results for four unique NBXs. For each of the four
antibodies shown SDS-PAGE gels are arranged from left to right as follows. A ladder of
proteins of known sizes in kilodaltons (kDa) are shown for reference. The next two lanes show
the NBX at the beginning and end of the experiment in the absence of shrimp midgut extract.
These lanes show that the NBX is not degraded over time in the absence of shrimp midgut
extract. The subsequent lane shows the appearance of the shrimp midgut extract at the start of
the experiment without NBX added. This lane allows for the visualization of naturally occurring
proteins in the extract. The subsequent 7-9 lanes show the time course of NBX stability in the
shrimp midgut extract. These lanes allow for the visualization of the relative stability of the
NBX. The longer the full-sized NBX can be visualized on the gel the more stable it is. The final
lane shows the shrimp midgut extract in the absence of NBX at the endpoint of the assay.
