摘要:
Reverse engineering has offered new ways of studying the pathobiology of RNA viral infections, new more efficient means of synthesizing recombinant viruses and developing vaccines and also demonstrated the versatility and efficiency of RNA dependent RNA polymerase RDRP system as an expression system. However, the currently used methods require a repertoire of complex, difficult-to- use tools. Present invention describes, a simpler plasmid based mammalian expression system that uses the RDRP enzyme activity for expression of recombinant proteins or RNA from viral minigenomes and rescue of recombinant viruses from cDNAs encoding entire genome(s) of negative stranded RNA viruses. This system will be useful for expression of recombinant proteins, therapeutic RNA molecules including anti-sense and/or selective interefering RNA and Ribozymes. This system can also be used for gene therapy and producing recombinant viruses for production of new vaccines.

The present invention relates to the development and manufacturing of viral vaccines. In particular, the invention relates to the field of industrial production of viral vectors and vaccines, more in particular to the use of avian embryonic stem cells, preferably the EBx ® cell line derived from duck embryonic stem cells, for the production of viral vectors and viruses. The invention is particularly useful for the industrial production of viral vaccines to prevent viral infection of humans and animals.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a methodology for the generation of infectious ribonucleoparticles (RNPs) of negative-strand RNA viruses, and in particular of non-segmented negative-strand RNA viruses in yeast, especially in budding yeast. Accordingly, the patent application relates to a recombinant yeast strain suitable for the rescue of infectious non-segmented negative-strand RNA virus particles or infectious virus-like particles. The invention also relates to the use of the recombinant yeast to prepare vaccine seed and to the use of the produced RNPs or RNPs-like to prepare vaccine formulations. It also concerns the use of the recombinant yeast for the screening of libraries of DNA.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a subunit vaccine platform based on multimeric ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) comprising nucleoproteins of a non-segmented negative-strand ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus as carriers of heterologous polypeptides. The present invention also relates to multimeric RNPs resulting from the assembly of at least 200 fusion proteins with a cellular RNA, or to recombinant yeasts or yeast lysates expressing these multimeric RNPs. It also concerns a process for the preparation of these multimeric RNPs or recombinant yeasts or yeast lysates. In particular, the present invention relates to their use as active ingredient for the in vitro production of an immunogenic composition or in eliciting a protective prophylactic or a therapeutic immune response against said heterologous polypeptide in a host in need thereof. Recombinant yeasts or yeast lysates of the invention can also be used as expression and vector systems for delivery to a host.
摘要:
The invention relates to a cell strain induced from MDCK cells as dog kidney-derived cells, and being able to be cultured without ingredients derived from animals. The cell strain is produced by adapting a MDCK cell to a medium without a serum but with a cell growth factor; and culturing the cell in a medium with an RPMI 1640 medium and a soybean-derived peptone but without ingredients derived from animals.
摘要:
A method for increasing production yield of viruses, viral proteins, and other related biological materials through enhanced control and stabilization of protein production via stress proteins and the resultant protein products. The present invention is also directed to methods for selection or engineering of cell lines yielding such enhanced stabilized products. More specifically, example embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for enhancing production of a viral agent, production of cell lines exhibiting permanent genetic modification, production of permissive eucaryotic cell lines, enhancing functional recombinant product yield, and the products of such methods.
