Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by episodic swelling, arising from genetic deficiency in C1-esterase inhibitor (C1INH), a regulator of several proteases including activated Plasma kallikrein (Pka). Many existing C1INH treatments exhibit short circulatory half-lives, precluding prophylactic use. Hexahistidine-tagged truncated C1INH (trC1INH lacking residues 1–97) with Mutated N-linked Glycosylation Sites N216Q/N231Q/N330Q (H6-trC1INH(MGS)), its murine serum albumin (MSA) fusion variant (H6-trC1INH(MGS)-MSA), and H6-MSA were expressed in Pichia pastoris and purified via nickel-chelate chromatography. Following intravenous injection in mice, the mean terminal half-life of H6-trC1INH(MGS)-MSA was significantly increased versus that of H6-trC1INH(MGS), by 3-fold, while remaining ~35% less than that of H6-MSA. The extended half-life was achieved with minimal, but significant, reduction in the mean second order rate constant of Pka inhibition of H6-trC1INH(MGS)-MSA by 33% relative to that of H6-trC1INH(MGS). Our results validate albumin fusion as a viable strategy for half-life extension of a natural inhibitor and suggest that H6-trC1INH(MGS)-MSA is worthy of investigation in a murine model of HAE.
