摘要:
The invention provides, a nucleic acid molecule encoding a growth hormone (GH) in which the RSP sorting signal has been mutated, such that the GH can be constitutively secreted by the nonregulated secretory pathway (NRSP) in a mammalian cell. The invention also provides a nucleic acid molecule encoding a GH in which the three-dimensional conformation of the RSP sorting signal has been altered such that the GH can be constitutively secreted by the NRSP in a mammalian cell.

摘要:
An adenovirus, including adenoviral capsid proteins, and a replication-defective adenoviral vector that includes a 5′ retroviral LTR nucleic acid sequence, a 3′ retroviral LTR nucleic acid sequence, a nucleic acid sequence encoding a portion of a retroviral envelope protein adjacent to either the 5′ LTR or the 3′ LTR nucleic acid sequence, a retroviral packaging sequence and a nucleic acid sequence encoding a transgene located between the 5′ LTR and the 3′ LTR is provided. Host cells infected with this adenovirus are also provided. An adenoviral vector is provided that includes an adenoviral polynucleotide sequence comprising a nucleic acid encoding a transgene, a retroviral packaging signal, a 5′ and a 3′ retroviral LTR, and a portion of a retroviral envelope polypeptide, wherein the adenoviral polynucleotide sequence does not encode one or more of E1, E3 or E4. A method for transforming a cell is also provided using a virus or a vector of the invention, as is a method for introducing a transgene into a cell that is not able to produce viral particles with a single viral vector. A method is also provided for preventing or treating disorder in a subject using the adenoviral vectors of the invention. A pharmaceutical composition is also provided that includes an adenoviral vector of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

摘要:
The invention provides a growth hormone (GH) in which amino acids within the regulated secretory pathway (RSP) sorting signal have been mutated as well as a GH in which the three-dimensional conformation of the RSP sorting signal has been altered, and a composition comprising an effective amount of such a GH in an excipient.
摘要:
An adenoviral vector is disclosed that includes two adenoviral ITRs, wherein the two adenoviral ITRs flank a packaging signal and a single retroviral LTR operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence of interest, wherein the adenoviral vector does not include a nucleic acid sequence encoding the retroviral structural proteins and wherein the adenoviral vector does not include a second retroviral LTR. In one embodiment, a method for transforming a cell is disclosed. In another embodiment, a method is disclosed for introducing a transgene into a cell with a single viral vector. In a further embodiment, a method is provided for preventing or treating disorder in a subject. A pharmaceutical composition is also provided.
