これらの疾患は遺伝的欠陥に関連し、異常なグミビン鎖が作られるか、β−グロ ビン鎖があったとしても極僅かしか生成されない。実施例において、β−グロビ ン遺伝子をコートするゲノムクローンがウィルスビヒクルのゲノムへ挿入される 場合には、得られたウィルスビヒクルは春型細胞だけてなくエリスロボイエチン リセブターの提示によって証拠付けられる赤血球分化に拘束された造血幹細胞由 来の春型細胞の前駆体を優先的に認識可能である。ウィルスがこのようなエリス ロボイエチン前駆体をトランスフェクトする場合、β−グロビン遺伝子は先祖細 胞のゲノム・\組み込まれる。結果として、正常β−グロビン遺伝子はゲノムへ 組み込まれ、正常な量のβ−グロビン又は野性型のβ−グロビンタンパク質を生 成することによって、この疾患を改変することができる。These diseases are associated with genetic defects that result in the production of abnormal gummybin chains or Even if there are bottle chains, very few are generated. In an example, β-globin A genomic clone encoding the protein gene is inserted into the genome of the viral vehicle. In some cases, the resulting viral vehicle contains not only spring-form cells but also erythroboietin. Hematopoietic stem cell origin committed to erythroid differentiation evidenced by the presentation of receptors. Precursors of future spring-type cells can be preferentially recognized. The virus is like this When transfecting the loboietin precursor, the β-globin gene is The genome of the cell is integrated. As a result, the normal β-globin gene is transferred to the genome. and produce normal amounts of β-globin or wild-type β-globin protein. This disease can be modified by making a difference.

Retroviruses actively segregate in order to efficiently integrate into the host genome. This is preferred because it requires cells that are cleft. Non-cancerous cells are preferentially presented on cancer cells. When expressing the indicated surface markers, the viral vehicle of the invention It can also recognize, bind to, and transfect other cells. This background graph Untreher describes the amount of surface markers found on such normal cells and the depending on the environment being presented. Furthermore, the viral vehicle is a recombinant protein. The normal viral coat proteins present with the targeting moiety, e.g. When containing a rope protein, the viral vehicle can be Independent of the presence of surface markers used for hlk, non-specific cellular Possesses transfection ability. However, in order to carry out the present invention, retroviruses When treating cancer cells using round, since viral integration and expression of virulence genes are unlikely to occur. It is unlikely to cause damage to normal cells that do not divide rapidly.

(Weiss), R,, N, Teich, Edited by H-Varmus, J. Coffin, (19) 84) “RNA Tumor Viruses: Mo1ecufar Bio "logy of Tumor Viruses" 2nd edition, Cold Spring ・Harbor Lahore, Cold Spring Harbor, New Yorkization ), these are removed], so the splices left to be spliced are Only a small array is maintained between the switching signals.

その後、エンベロープ部分は除去のために選択されてEPOコード配列と置換さ 第1る。エンベロープの外側タンパク質サブユニット(gp 70)の中央に、 プロリン富裕領域かあり、これは、細胞リセブター認識の為の有望な候補ドメイ ンである(コツホ(Koch)、W、ら、(+983) J、Virol、、4 5:1−9)。他の部位には、この分子のアミノ末端部分に相同性がある領域と 隣接している2つの領域(マーク(λ(ark)、 G、 E、ら、(1984 )J、Virol、、49:530−539)と、MoMLVのパラリトジエニ ソク変異体をもたらす点突然変異の部位(ツレツク(Szurek)、 P、  F、ら、(1988)J、 Virol、 62:357−360’)とを含む 。これら領域はEPOとの置換のターゲット部位である。同時に、アミノ末端で envシグナルペプチドとカルボキシ末端領域で内部エンヘローブサブユニット (pI 5)及びスルフヒドリル結合に寄与するシスティン残基とをコードする gp70配列の部分は、無傷のままで維持される(ソニック(Shinnick )、 T、 M、ら、981 ) Nature 293:543−548)。The envelope portion is then selected for removal and replaced with the EPO coding sequence. First. In the center of the outer envelope protein subunit (gp 70), There is a proline-rich region, which is a promising candidate domain for cellular receptor recognition. (Koch, W. et al., (+983) J. Virol, 4 5:1-9). Other sites include regions of homology to the amino-terminal portion of this molecule. Two adjacent areas (mark (λ(ark), G, E, et al.

These regions are target sites for substitution with EPO. At the same time, at the amino terminus internal enherobe subunit with env signal peptide and carboxy-terminal region (pI 5) and cysteine residues that contribute to sulfhydryl bonding. Portions of the gp70 sequence remain intact (Sonic ), T, M, et al., 981) Nature 293:543-548).

特徴的な制限部位は5923(BstEII’)及び6537CBamHI ) の位置に存在する。これら2つの部位の間のエンベロープ配列の除去は、env シグナル配列を維持し、EPO配列(約500塩基対の長さ)をgp7oのアミ ノ末端て挿入可能にする。Characteristic restriction sites are 5923 (BstEII') and 6537CBamHI) It exists in the position of Removal of the envelope sequence between these two sites results in env The signal sequence is maintained and the EPO sequence (approximately 500 base pairs long) is inserted into the amino acid of gp7o. It can be inserted at the end.

Convenient restriction sites exist in this region. Since there are no is created at the position of Use these new restriction sites to modify the intervening env sequence.

ターゲット細胞は4つのタイプから構成される; (I)野性型HeLa細胞、 これは非マウスてありEPOリセブターを発現していない(ドアンドレア(D’  Andrea’i、A、ら、(1989) Ce1l 57:277−285 )、(2)安定的にトランスフェクトされているHeLa細胞てあってEPOリ セブターを有するもの、(3)野性型NIH3T3’a胞、これはマウス繊維芽 細胞でありEPOリセブターを発現していない、(4)安定的にトランスフェク トされているHeLa細胞であってEPOリセブターを有するもの。Target cells are composed of four types; (I) wild-type HeLa cells; This is a non-mouse and does not express the EPO receptor (D'Andrea (D' Andrea'i, A. et al. (1989) Ce1l 57:277-285 ), (2) stably transfected HeLa cells with EPO (3) wild-type NIH3T3'a cells, which are mouse fibroblasts; (4) stably transfected cells that do not express EPO receptors. HeLa cells that have been treated with EPO receptors.

HeLa及びNIH3T3細胞を、メトトレキサート耐性DHPR遺伝子を含有 する適当な真核発現ベクター中でクローン化されたEPOリセブターcDNAを 同時トランスフェクトした(シモンセン、C,S、ら、(1988) Nuvl eic Ac1ds Res、 、 16:2235−2246)。メトトレキ サートを用いた選別の後、生き残ったコロニーを単離して、EPOリセプターの 発現を放射性リガンド(”’I−EPO)結合アッセイによって測定した。最も 高レベルのEPOリセブターの発現を示すサブクローンを選別して、EPOリセ ブター〇発現を更に増やすために更にメトトレキサートの濃度を上げて含む培地 中で生育させた。これらの細胞のりセブターのレベルは、細胞当たり約1000 リセブターの単位として計算した。感染実験の前に追加陽性対照群としてneo ’/β−galベクターのみ(未パッケージ)をリン酸カルシウム法によって両 方の細胞型へトランスフェクトして、M o M LVのLTRによって発現が 向けられているネオマイシン耐性遺伝子がこれらの細胞において効率よく発現さ れているかを確認した。HeLa and NIH3T3 cells containing the methotrexate resistance DHPR gene EPO receptor cDNA cloned into an appropriate eukaryotic expression vector to co-transfected (Simonsen, C.S., et al. (1988)) eic Ac1ds Res, 16:2235-2246). Methotreki After selection with SERT, surviving colonies were isolated and EPO receptor Expression was measured by radioligand (''I-EPO) binding assay. Subclones showing high levels of EPO receptor expression were selected and Medium containing increased concentrations of methotrexate to further increase pig〇 expression I grew it inside. The level of cell glue septa in these cells is approximately 1000 per cell. Calculated as units of receiver. neo as an additional positive control group before infection experiments. ’/β-gal vector alone (unpackaged) was purified by the calcium phosphate method. expression is induced by the M LV LTR. The targeted neomycin resistance gene is efficiently expressed in these cells. I checked to see if it was.

ウィルスの暴露した全て細胞をネオマイシンを用いた選別に付して、生存コロニ ー試験してギムサ染色の後に計測した。組換えEPO−envタンパク質を発現 しているウィルスをEPOリセブターを有する細胞と接触させた場合に、誼すセ ブターを有しない細胞と比較して、感染の効率の向上が得られた。この効率の向 」二は、EPOリセブターを有しない対応する野性型の細胞と比較して、EPO リセブターを有するHeLa細胞の場合で約10倍(図4)、EPOリセブター を有するNIH3T3細胞の場合で30〜40倍であった。All cells exposed to the virus were subjected to selection using neomycin to identify viable colonies. - tested and measured after Giemsa staining. Expressing recombinant EPO-env protein If a virus containing EPO receptors is brought into contact with cells containing EPO receptors, An improved efficiency of infection was obtained compared to cells without pigs. This efficiency '2 compared to corresponding wild-type cells without EPO receptors. Approximately 10 times more EPO receptors (Figure 4) than in HeLa cells with receptors. It was 30 to 40 times higher in the case of NIH3T3 cells with .
