PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide polynucleotides encoding new immunogenic HIV polypeptides.SOLUTION: The present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding new immunogenic HIV polypeptides. Uses of the polynucleotides in applications including immunization, generation of packaging cell lines, and production of HIV polypeptides are also described. Polynucleotides encoding antigenic HIV polypeptides are described, as are uses of these polynucleotides and polypeptide products therefrom, including formulations of immunogenic compositions and uses thereof. In certain embodiments, the present invention relates to synthetic polynucleotides and/or expression cassettes encoding HIV polypeptides.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide lentiviral vectors for gene therapy, cancer treatment, production of recombinant proteins, such as antibodies and vaccines, and other therapeutic purposes.SOLUTION: New lentiviral vectors contain helper sequences in opposite directions and/or minimally functional LTR sequences, which can be used to prepare high efficiency transduction vectors. Vectors are also designed to express silencing RNA and antisense polynucleotides. The lentiviral vectors, transduction vectors, and lentiviral systems are used in functional genomics, drug discovery, target validation, protein production (e.g. therapeutic proteins, vaccines, monoclonal antibodies), gene therapy, and therapeutic treatments.
摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide improved expression of HIV polypeptides and production of virus-like particles, wherein immune response is generated in subjects. SOLUTION: There is provided an efficient expression of HIV polypeptides in a variety of cell types (including, but not limited to, mammalian, insect, and plant cells). Synthetic expression cassettes encoding the HIV Gag-containing polypeptides are provided, and uses of the expression cassettes in applications including DNA immunization, preparation of packaging cell lines, and production of Env-, tat-, or Gag-containing proteins are also provided. There are provided methods for producing virus-like particles (VLP), as well as, uses of the VLP (including, but not limited to, vehicles for the presentation of antigens and stimulation of immune response in subjects to whom the VLP are administered).
