    摘要: Applicants have identified 5 mutants associated with hepatitis B virus resistance to adefovir, a nucleotide analogue antiviral drug widely employed in the therapy of hepatitis B. In accord with this invention, reverse transcriptase mutants rtN236T, rtA181V, rtA181T and their corresponding surface antigen mutants sL173F and sL172trunc are provided. The mutant proteins, antibodies thereto and nucleic acids encoding the mutants have diagnostic value in monitoring and adjusting patient therapy with adefovir and in the therapy of patients infected with the mutants.

    摘要: The invention provides composition and methods for delivering a composition according to the invention comprising a wild-type (wt) mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule to a mammalian cell. The wt-mtDNA molecule is a functional mtDNA molecule that includes the entire mitochondrial genome. The wt-mtDNA molecule in the composition of the invention has a mitochondrial leader sequence (MLS) peptide attached to facilitate the uptake of the mtDNA molecule into a mitochondrion of the mammalian cell. The delivery of the wt-mtDNA/MLS peptide complex is used as a general replenishment therapy for conditions attributed to mtDNA defects, independent of the specific defect in the mtDNA.

    摘要: In vitro methods for making a recombinant adenoviral genome, as well as kits for practicing the same and the recombinant adenovirus vectors produced thereby, are provided. In the subject methods, the subject genomes are prepared from first and second vectors. The first vector includes an adenoviral genome having an E region deletion and three different, non-adenoviral restriction endonuclease sites located in the E region. The second vector is a shuttle vector and includes an insertion nucleic acid flanked by two of the three different non-adenoviral vectors present in the first vector. Cleavage products are prepared from the first and second vectors using the appropriate restriction endonucleases. The resultant cleavage products are then ligated to produce the subject recombinant adenovirus genome. The subject adenoviral genomes find use in a variety of application, including as vectors for use in a variety of applications, including gene therapy.

    摘要: A modified factor VIIa is provided. The modified factor has increased amidolytic activity in the absence of T.F. and a higher affinity for T.F. when compared to the native factor VIIa but does not have substantially altered proteolytic activity when bound to T.F. Nucleic acid molecules that encode the factor, expression vectors that contain the nucleic acid molecules, cells that contain the nucleic acid molecules, and cells transformed with the expression vector are also provided. In a preferred embodiment, the modified factor is a human factor VIIa.
