ABSTRACT
The conserved N-linked glycan at the Fc domain of recombinant monoclonal antibodies is an attractive target for site-specific payload conjugation for preparation of homogenous antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Here, we report a novel ADC constructing strategy, named "ez-ADiCon", that is achieved by one-step enzymatic transglycosylation of a payload-preloaded bi-antennary glycan oxazoline onto a deglycosylated antibody. In this method, a mixture of different glycoforms of the Fc-glycan is replaced with a pre-defined payload-linked glycan. Since two payloads are linked on each donor glycan substrate, efficient conjugation results in a highly homogenous ADC with mostly-four drug molecules per antibody, facilitating hydrophobic interaction chromatography analysis and purification. We validated this conjugation strategy using Monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) and an anti-Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (anti-Her2) antibody as the model ADC components and demonstrated its target-specific in vitro cytotoxicity. Our novel conjugation strategy, ez-ADiCon, provides a new approach for the preparation of next generation ADCs.
