Abstract
Modified PH20 hyaluronidase polypeptides, including modified polypeptides that exhibit increased stability and/or increased activity, are provided. Also provided are compositions and formulations and uses thereof.
Claims25
A modified PH20 polypeptide, comprising one or more amino acid replacements in an unmodified PH20 polypeptide, wherein:
- the unmodified PH20 polypeptide consists of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs:
- 3, 7 and 32-66;
- the modified PH20 polypeptide exhibits increased hyaluronidase activity compared to the unmodified PH20 polypeptide not containing the amino acid replacement(s);
- the amino acid replacement(s) confer(s) the increased hyaluronidase activity;
- an amino acid replacement that confers the increased hyaluronidase activity is at a position corresponding to residue 309, with reference to amino acid positions of SEQ ID NO:3;
- corresponding amino acid positions are identified by alignment of the PH20 polypeptide with the polypeptide having the sequence of amino acids of SEQ ID NO:3;
- and
- the modified PH20 polypeptide has at least 91% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs:
- 3, 7 and 32-66.
