    Abstract: The present invention relates to a marker for predicting a tumor reactivity of lymphocytes, a composition for predicting a tumor reactivity, and a method for predicting a tumor reactivity. Using the genetic marker according to the present invention, a predictive model that can predict the tumor reactivity of cultured lymphocytes may be constructed, and it is possible to more accurately select tumor-specific lymphocytes to produce an effective immunotherapeutic agent, by predicting the reactivity of the lymphocytes through the present invention. In addition, by using the above genetic markers, it is possible to more conveniently and non-invasively separate lymphocytes from body tissues, blood, or body fluids, deviating from the conventional invasive methods, and to select only lymphocytes with tumor-specific activity, for immunotherapy. It is expected to widely use with various application.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a transposon vector, a transposon system comprising same, a transposon kit, a cell into which the transposon vector is inserted, and uses thereof, wherein the present invention has been completed by confirming that an exogenous gene is effectively transferred into the chromosome of a target cell to produce a high yield of genetically modified cells. In particularly, it was confirmed that the transposon according to the present invention can effectively transfer a TCR or CAR-encoding gene to immune cells, and cells expressing the TCR or CAR show high reactivity to an antigen, and thus, it is expected that various TCR-T cells and CAR-T cells can be produced by using the transposon system according to the present invention. In particular, CAR-T cells with a high yield can be obtained at a low cost by using the transposon of the present invention, such that the prices of therapeutics can be lowered by lowering the production costs of CAR-T cellular therapeutic agents, whereas conventional CAR-T cells require high costs for the production of CAR as well as transfer to target cells. Moreover, it was confirmed that the transposon of the present invention can effectively transfer an antibody gene, such as an oncovirus-targeting neutralizing antibody, to HEK293 cells used for mass production of antibodies, such that various antibodies can easily be mass-produced by means of the transposon of the present invention In particular, since the transposon according to the present invention is not limited in the type of gene that can be transferred as a vector, it is expected that the transposon can be actively utilized according to various purposes in the development of genome-modified cell lines expressing various genes in addition to antibody genes.
