Entomopoxvirus-Vertebrate Gene Delivery Vector And Method
Entomopoxvirus-Vertebrate Gene Delivery Vector And Method
US Patent:
6106825, Aug 22, 2000
Filed:

Appl. No.:
8/852629
Inventors:
Richard W. Moyer - Gainesville FL

Assignee:

International Classification:
A01N 6300, C12N 701, C12N 510, C12N 1563
US Classification:
424 932
Abstract:
This invention provides recombinant entomopoxvirus as a novel vector and method of using such vector for delivery and expression of genes of biological significance to vertebrate cells, including human cells. This invention includes the use of an early entomopoxvirus or like gene promoter to drive the expression of an heterologous gene product in a vertebrate cell infected with the recombinant entomopoxvirus vector. We have discovered that, while the entomopoxvirus vector of this invention does not replicate in the vertebrate cell, it enters vertebrate cell cytoplasm and achieves expression of an heterologous gene inserted into the rEPV without causing cytopathic or cytotoxic effects. We further provide a method for expression of the heterologous gene under control of late, strong entomopoxvirus gene promoters, vertebrate gene or viral promoters, and for stable integration of the heterologous gene delivered by the rEPV into the vertebrate cell.

US Patent:
6127172, Oct 3, 2000
Filed:

Appl. No.:
9/086651
Inventors:

Assignee:
University of Florida - Gainesville FL
International Classification:
C12N 510, C12N 701, C12N 1500, A61K 4800
US Classification:
4353201
Abstract:
The subject invention pertains to recombinant entomopox vectors which are useful for the delivery and stable expression of heterologous DNA in vertebrate cells. Specifically exemplified is a recombinant EPV from amsacta moorei (AmEPV). Because of the capacity of the EPV to incorporate foreign or heterologous DNA sequences, the vectors of the subject invention can be used to deliver DNA inserts that are larger than 10 kb in size. Accordingly, one aspect of the present invention concerns use of the recombinant vectors for delivery and expression of biological useful proteins in gene therapy protocols.
