Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of viral vectors, in particular retroviruses, in particular lentiviral vectors; more particularly, it relates to an element for initiating transcription in a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest for use in the preparation of retroviral, especially lentiviral, vectors, and viral genome transcription cassettes and vectors comprising such an element.
Background
Retroviruses, also known as retroviruses, belong to the class of RNA viruses, which are double-stranded RNA viruses with an envelope, which are characterized primarily by the ability to "reverse transcribe" their genome from RNA to DNA. Virions are typically around 100nm in diameter and comprise a dimeric genome (two identical single-stranded positive-stranded RNAs) that form a complex with Nucleocapsid (NC) proteins. Its genome is enclosed IN a protein Capsid (CA) which also contains proteins with enzymatic activity, i.e. Reverse Transcriptase (RT), Integrase (IN) and Protease (PR), which are essential for viral infection. Matrix protein (MA) forms a layer outside the capsid core that interacts with the envelope, which is a lipid bilayer derived from the host cell membrane and surrounding the viral core particle. Anchored to this envelope is the viral envelope glycoprotein (Env), which is responsible for recognizing specific receptors on host cells and initiating the infection process. The envelope protein is formed of two subunits, a Transmembrane (TM) subunit anchoring the protein in the lipid membrane and a Surface (SU) subunit binding to a cell receptor, respectively.
Gamma-retroviral vectors, the most commonly used retroviral vector, account for 17.3% of all transfection procedures used in clinical trials reporting gene therapy in 2017. Currently, there is increasing interest in lentiviruses (lentivirus vectors) derived from complex retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1), with 2.9% of clinical trials of gene therapy rising from 2012 to 7.3% of 2017. This is because lentiviruses are capable of transducing non-dividing cells, a property that distinguishes them from other viral vectors (including gamma-retroviral vectors). In addition, lentiviruses have a more favorable lineage of gene insertion sites relative to retroviruses. The most attractive properties of retroviral and lentiviral vectors are: as a gene delivery tool, the gene delivery capacity of the gene delivery tool can reach 9 kb; less immune response in patients and better clinically proven safety; high transduction efficiency in vivo and in vitro; and the ability to permanently integrate foreign genes into the target cell genome, allowing long-lasting expression of the delivered gene.
The prototype lentiviral vector system was developed based on the HIV-1 virus, which is a well studied human pathogenic virus. In addition to HIV-1, other lentiviruses have been developed for use as gene delivery vectors (TVs), but have largely fallen short of clinical research, such as HIV-2, Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV), or non-primate lentiviruses, including Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), Bovine Immunodeficiency Virus (BIV), or Caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV). Vectors based solely on Equine Infectious Anemia Virus (EIAV) have been developed to the stage of clinical use for the treatment of parkinson (ProSavin).
Mainly due to the safety problem caused by the pathogenicity of HIV-1 in human body, three generations of lentivirus vector systems are developed. The first generation of lentiviral vector system is represented by a three-plasmid system consisting of 3 plasmids, a packaging plasmid, an envelope plasmid, and a transfer vector plasmid carrying a viral genome transcription cassette (transfer vector) carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest. The packaging plasmid is derived from HIV-1 proviral genome, its 5'LTR is replaced by cytomegalovirus early promoter, 3' LTR is replaced by simian virus-40 poly A (SV40polyA) sequence, and HIV-1 envelope gene env is deleted. The packaging plasmid simultaneously expresses rev, vif, vpr, vpu and nef auxiliary genes. The deleted HIV-1 envelope gene was replaced with VSV-G, an envelope protein gene of Vesicular stomatitis virus (Vesicular stomatis virus), and expressed from an envelope plasmid. The transfer vector plasmid carrying the transcription cassette of the viral genome carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest carries the 5' LTR of HIV-1, and the entire 5' untranslated region, the 5' gag gene of around 300bp, the central polypurine tract (cppt) fragment, and additionally the Rev Response Element (RRE) fragment. This transfer vector plasmid is used to clone the nucleic acid fragment of interest and provide viral genomic RNA upon viral assembly. The second generation lentiviral vector system was modified from the first generation by deleting all the accessory genes (vif, vpr, vpu, and nef genes) of HIV-1 in the packaging plasmid. The removal of these auxiliary genes does not affect the titer and infectivity of the virus, and simultaneously increases the safety of the vector. The third generation lentiviral vector system consisted of four plasmids, which removed the rev gene from the packaging plasmid and placed separately on another packaging plasmid. Furthermore, the third generation lentiviral vector system adds two safety features simultaneously: the first safety feature is the construction of a self-inactivating lentiviral transfer vector plasmid, i.e., deletion of the U3 region of the 3 ' LTR in the transcription cassette of the viral genome, so that the lentiviral vector permanently loses the enhancer and promoter fragments of the U3 regions of the 5' LTR and the 3 ' LTR after completion of the reverse transcription reaction, so that even if all viral proteins are present at this time, the viral cannot be successfully packaged because they can no longer transcribe the viral genomic RNA, and therefore the third generation of transfer vector plasmids is also called self-inactivating (SIN) transfer vector plasmids. The deletion of the U3 region also greatly reduces the carcinogenicity of the vector gene inserted into the host cell. The second safety feature is that the tat gene with the function of transcriptional transactivation is removed, the viral genomic RNA is transcribed by replacing the enhancer and promoter sequence of the U3 region of the 5' LTR with a heterologous promoter sequence, and the heterologous promoter cannot transcribe itself when transcribing the lentiviral genomic RNA, thus further ensuring that the lentiviral vector can only be transfected once by packaging. The third generation lentiviral vector system only retains the gag, pol and rev gene sequences in the original HIV-1 genome, and is therefore safer.
The retrovirus/Lentivirus vector may have different pseudotypes (pseudotypes) by replacing different heterologous envelope glycoproteins, such as Lentivirus (Lentivirus, e.g., human, simian, Feline, bovine immunodeficiency virus (immunodeficiency virus), caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (hepatitis-encephalititis virus), Equine infectious anemia virus (Equine infectious anemia virus), etc.) envelope proteins, retrovirus (retrovirus, e.g., Murine leukemia virus (Murine leukovirus, 10A1,4070A), Gibbon ape leukemia virus (Gibbape e leukemia virus), Feline leukemia virus (Feline leukemia virus, RD114), Amphotropic retrovirus (Amphivirus), retroviral (Ecotropic leukemia virus), Baboon virus (Baboon leukemia virus), simian leukemia virus (Baboon virus), etc. (paramyxovirus), such as Nippon virus envelope proteins (melanoma virus), etc. (maize virus envelope proteins), and the like, Rhabdoviruses (Rhabdoviruses, such as Rabies Virus (Rabies Virus), Mokola Virus (Mokola Virus), etc.) envelope proteins, Filoviruses (Filoviruses, such as Ebola Virus Zaire Virus (Ebola Zaire Virus), etc.) envelope proteins, trachoma Virus (Arenaviruses, such as Lymphocytic choriomeningitis Virus (Lymphatic choromitis Virus), etc.) envelope proteins, Baculovirus (Baculovir) envelope proteins, Alphaviruses (Alphavirus, such as Chikungunya Virus, Ross River Virus (RoRiriver Virus), Semliki Forest Virus (Semliki Virus), Newcastle disease Virus (Sindbis Virus), Nerviella encephalitis Virus (Veilluevirus), Veillus Virus (Veillonevirus), etc. (Fowlett-packard Virus, etc.), such as Vesicular stomatitis virus (Vesicular stomatis virus), Chandipura virus and Piry virus (Chandipura virus and Piry virus) envelope proteins, most of the lentiviral vectors currently use Vesicular stomatitis virus envelope glycoprotein (VSV-G) because such glycoprotein allows the lentiviral vectors to have a wide transduction spectrum (transduction spectrum) and better stability during downstream processing.
Currently most retroviral/lentiviral vectors are preferably prepared using mammalian cell lines as host cells, the most widely used being the 293T or HEK293 cell lines and derived cell lines screened or engineered based thereon. The HEK293 cell is a human kidney epithelial cell line transfected with adenovirus E1A gene, the 293T cell is derived from the HEK293 cell and expresses SV40 large T antigen, and a plasmid containing an SV40 replication starting point and a promoter region can be replicated in the 293T cell and maintain high plasmid copy number in a period of time, so that the protein expression amount of the plasmid-carried gene is improved. In addition, 293T cells have faster cell growth rate and higher transfection efficiency compared to HEK293 cells. The characteristics of the 293T cell enable the preparation efficiency of the virus vector to be higher. In addition, according to literature reports, production/packaging cells useful for viral vectors also include mammalian cells HepG2 cells, HeLa cells, CHO cells, BHK cells, COS cells, NIH/3T3 cells, Vero cells, HT1080 cells, Te671 cells, CEM cells, NSO cells, and PerC6 cells.
The conventional retroviral/lentiviral vectors are generally prepared by transferring gag gene, pol gene, rev gene (for lentiviral vectors), envelope glycoprotein gene, and a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest (comprising a promoter for transcription-packaging into the RNA genome of retrovirus/lentivirus; various cis-acting sequences required for packaging and transfection of retrovirus/lentivirus genome, such as 5' LTR, PBS, psi packaging signal, cppt (for lentiviral vectors), RRE (for lentiviral vectors), ppt and 3 ' LTR sequences, etc.; a nucleic acid fragment of interest to be transduced, a polyadenylation signal at the 3 ' end, etc.) into mammalian host cells, usually murine or human cells, respectively. This can be achieved by transient transfection of a construct, such as a plasmid, containing the nucleic acid fragment into the host cell and subsequent production and harvesting of the viral vector for 24-72 hours (transient production), or by stable integration of the nucleic acid fragment into the host cell genome to form a stable production cell line (producer cell line) for continued production (stable production).
Most retroviral vectors currently in use are derived from Moloney murine leukemia virus (Mo-MLV), and many design improvements have been made to this vector system over the years. A rapid and efficient method for preparing retroviral vectors is by transient transfection of 293-based packaging cell lines such as Phoenix-ECO and Phoenix-AMPHO (Dr. Gary P. Nolan, Stanford University) or other commercially available packaging cell lines such as Plat-A, Plat-E, and Plat-GP (cell Biolabs); AmphoPak-293; EcoPak 2-293; and RetroPackPT67 (Clontock). To pseudotype retroviral vectors with other envelope proteins, such as vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G), the transfer vector plasmid and the plasmid expressing the envelope protein of interest can be transfected simultaneously in a packaging Cell line (e.g., Plat-GP, Cell Biolabs; GP2-293, Clontech) expressing only the Mo-MLV gag and pol genes; or by transient transfection of 293 cells simultaneously with a plasmid expressing the Mo-MLV gag and pol genes (e.g., pUMVC-plasmid, Addgene, #8449), a plasmid expressing the envelope protein of interest, and a transfer vector plasmid.
Method for transient production and utilization of transfection plasmidTo introduce viral gene constructs, using cationic agents that can form complexes with negatively charged DNA, allowing their uptake by cells via endocytosis. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is one of the most widely used and most efficient cationic reagents, and the PEI transfection method is currently used clinically and industrially to introduce the above-mentioned constructs, but the major problems of unstable process and low titer of toxin are existed after the process is scaled up. Other methods, such as calcium phosphate precipitation, cationic liposome complexation, and non-liposomal transfection reagents, such as Lipofectamine andhowever, these methods can only be used for small-scale production or for research purposes, since they are either difficult to scale up or too expensive. Alternatively, viral infection has also been developed and validated for retroviral/lentiviral vector production using baculovirus or adenovirus to introduce lentiviral gene constructs. However, this method requires additional isolation of the retrovirus/lentivirus vector and baculovirus or adenovirus downstream to meet the clinical grade virus production standard, and the process of preparing the retrovirus/lentivirus vector using baculovirus or adenovirus is complicated and the final transfection titer is not high compared to the plasmid DNA transfection method. Alternatively, continuous electroporation has also been developed for large volume cell transfection, and in principle can also be used for transient transfection production of retroviruses/lentiviruses, but this technique is still limited by process scale-up capabilities and expensive equipment and consumables.
Construction of a stable retroviral/lentiviral producer cell line relies on the integration of viral gene constructs into the cell genome to allow constitutive or regulated expression, respectively. Generally, gag, pol, rev (for lentiviral vectors) and env genes are first transferred into cells simultaneously or sequentially and cells are selected for stable insertion of all the genes into the genome and for co-high expression by corresponding resistance selection and clonal selection, thereby establishing a packaging cell line (packaging cell). Thereafter, a viral genome transcription cassette carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest is introduced to construct a viral vector-producing cell line carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest. If non-SIN (self-inactivating) vectors are used which are replicable after reverse transcription, this can be achieved directly by viral infection; otherwise, it is necessary to obtain a producer cell line stably integrated in the genome of the packaging cell described above of a transcription cassette of the viral genome carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest by chemical transfection of the plasmid followed by resistance selection and clonal selection. A very efficient method is to insert a lentivirus genome transcription cassette containing a (selectable) marker gene into primary cells, and to select a production cell line which stably integrates and expresses a virus vector at a high level for a long time by the marker gene, and then to replace the marker gene for constructing the production cell line with a target nucleic acid fragment by a site-specific recombinase (site-specific recombinase), such as FLP-FRT or Cre-lox recombinase system, to rapidly construct a production cell line which stably produces a virus vector carrying the target nucleic acid fragment. This method has been shown to allow the establishment of high titer human retroviral vector producing cell lines (Schucht, R., et al (2006) ' A new generation of retroviral vector. ' Mol. Ther 14(2): 285. cells 292.; Loew, R., et al. (2010) ' A new PG13-base packaging cell line for a stable production of clinical-genetic vector targeted "Gene 17. 272). In addition, viral vector packaging cell lines or production cell line platforms for rapid replacement of nucleic acid fragments of interest and/or envelope proteins can be developed using similar principles. Development of stable retroviral/lentiviral vector producer cell lines is a time-consuming and labor-intensive complex system engineering that takes a year or more to fully develop and characterize the cell line platform, and because of the complexity of the work, many of the published work has ultimately failed to meet industry needs due to issues of titer of produced virus, cell line stability, culture adaptation, etc. However, once a stable virus-producing cell line is successfully obtained through research and development, the stable virus-producing cell line has irreplaceable advantages in the aspects of process reliability, process amplification capacity, production cost, virus product safety and the like in the fields of clinical and industrial applications compared with an instant transfection production process. Firstly, the production process of the stable production cell line is more stable, a completely characterized production platform can be provided, and safer virus vectors can be produced with low batch-to-batch difference; secondly, the process is easier to scale up, and cannot cause the rapid reduction of the production titer along with the increase of the culture volume like an instant production system; in addition, as the DNA plasmid, transfection reagent and other raw and auxiliary materials are not needed, a GMP production line for producing the plasmid is not additionally established; finally, the method has higher unit yield and simpler production process quality control. In the process of expanding the production scale, the production process based on the stable production cell line has further remarkable advantages in the aspects of research and development, production, management, operation and maintenance, cost and the like. These advantages are useful for promoting the technical and pharmaceutical industrialization in the fields of gene therapy and cell therapy.
The retroviral/lentiviral vector titer in the purified pre-cell stock currently available in production was 106To 107Infected particles/mL culture medium. However, the average amount of carrier required to treat a patient in a clinical trial was 1010Infection particles are at this level per patient. In addition, virus production is generally characterized by a low infectious particle/physical particle ratio (less than 1: 100); at the same time, these viral vectors are very sensitive and lose their infectivity rapidly in cell culture supernatants at 37 ℃ with half-lives of about 8-12 hours, which further increases the demand for viral productivity. It is estimated that based on the current production technology platform, each patient requires approximately 10-100L culture volume of viral vectors produced, and therefore, current retroviral and lentiviral vector production systems behave far below therapeutic requirements, and any increase in the production capacity of current retroviral and lentiviral vector production systems is of great value.
Therefore, there is a strong need in the art to provide a technique for increasing the production capacity of retroviral and lentiviral vectors.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention remarkably improves the production titer of the retrovirus/lentivirus vector by constructing and using a Tet-On inducible expression system Tet Response Element (TRE) to regulate and control the transcription of a retrovirus/lentivirus genome transcription box carrying a target nucleic acid fragment.
In the case of transduction using retroviral/lentiviral vectors, the nucleic acid fragment of interest is loaded into the retroviral/lentiviral RNA genome. The term "nucleic acid fragment of interest" may generally refer to a gene, such as a nucleic acid sequence encoding a protein, depending on the purpose of use; may be a functional ribonucleic acid (RNA), such as small interfering RNA (siRNA), long non-coding RNA (LncRNA), guide RNA (gRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) or other functional RNA coding sequences of CRISPR gene editing systems; other functional nucleic acid sequences may be present, such as homologous recombination sequences, DNA or RNA sequences capable of binding to proteins, DNA or RNA sequences capable of binding to other nucleic acid fragments (e.g., primers or probes); can be any nucleic acid sequence in nature or an artificial nucleic acid sequence; or a combination of one or more of the above; the nucleic acid fragment of interest may further comprise a nucleic acid sequence regulating gene expression such as a promoter, enhancer, insulator, poly A signal, etc. The RNA genome of a retrovirus and/or lentivirus refers to a ribonucleic acid fragment that can be packaged into a virus when constructing a retrovirus/lentivirus vector, and generally contains sequences necessary for viral packaging and transduction, such as a ψ packaging signal, a Long Terminal Repeat (LTR). In the lentiviral RNA genome, it typically contains all 5 'untranslated regions, about 300bp of the 5' gag gene, a central polypurine tract (cppt) fragment, and additionally a Rev Response Element (RRE) fragment; the absence of one or more fragments may severely affect the packaging or transduction efficiency of the lentivirus. In preparing a retrovirus/lentivirus vector, a viral genomic RNA fragment carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest is typically obtained by constructing a viral genomic transcription cassette (transcriptional cassette) carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest, which contains a nucleic acid sequence with promoter function (which may be a retroviral/lentivirus LTR sequence itself or a chimeric promoter constructed from other heterologous promoters and LTRs), a DNA sequence corresponding to the viral RNA genome, and typically a poly a signal sequence that regulates the termination of transcription. In the preparation of retroviral/lentiviral vectors, a construct carrying a viral genomic transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid segment of interest (e.g., the transcription cassette described above is constructed into a transfer vector plasmid or into a viral vector) is delivered to a host cell, and then transcribed by the transcriptional machinery of the host cell into a corresponding viral genomic RNA segment carrying the nucleic acid segment of interest that can be packaged into a viral vector.
The transcription cassette of the retrovirus genome carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest is required to provide cis-acting elements necessary for transcription, packaging and transduction, and mainly comprises: (1) long Terminal Repeat (LTR) fragment: the primary functions of the LTRs are to regulate the reverse transcription of the viral genome from RNA to DNA, the integration of DNA proviruses (provirus) in the host cell genome, and the transcription of viral mRNA fragments following integration. The LTR consists of three functional domains, U3(unique-3 '), R (repeat), and U5 (unique-5'), according to the structure of U3-R-U5, wherein the U3 domain provides mainly transcriptional promoter and enhancer functions; the R domain is involved in the reverse transcription process and encodes the 5 'capping sequence (5' cap) and polyadenylation (polyA) signals of the viral RNA genome; the U5 domain is the start site for reverse transcription. The currently used SIN vector eliminates the U3 domain in the 3 'LTR and regulates transcription of the entire viral RNA genome transcription cassette carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest by a chimeric promoter consisting of a foreign promoter and the R-U5 domain in the 5' LTR. (2) A Primer Binding Site (PBS) located immediately downstream of the 5' LTR and in close proximity to the U5 domain, which binds to a specific transfer RNA (tRNA) in the host cell and initiates reverse transcription using this tRNA as a primer. (3) ψ packing signal (ψ packing signal): located between the primer binding site and the gag open reading frame is an essential element of the packaging of the viral RNA genome into a viral particle. (4) The polypurine tract (PPT) located upstream of the 3' LTR, immediately adjacent to the U3 functional domain, is the primer for plus strand DNA synthesis during reverse transcription. For a lentivirus genome transcription cassette, the following essential cis-acting elements are also provided: (1) central polypurine tract/central termination sequence (cPPT/CTS): the second polypurine tract located in the lentivirus genome is important for the transfer of provirus into host cell nucleus, and can obviously improve the efficiency of integrating provirus complex into host cell genome. (2) Rev Response Element (RRE) binds to lentivirus encoded regulatory protein Rev, which is essential for the transport of post-transcribed unspliced and incompletely spliced viral mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. The RRE sequence contained in the lentivirus genome transcription box can obviously improve the packaging efficiency of the lentivirus vector. In addition, the expression level of a transgene in a nucleic acid fragment of interest can be significantly increased by linking Posttranscriptional Regulatory elements (Posttranscriptional Regulatory elements) to the 3' end of the nucleic acid fragment of interest in a genomic transcription cassette of a retrovirus/lentivirus vector, such as a Posttranscriptional Regulatory Element of Woodchuck Hepatitis Virus (WHV) Posttranscriptional Regulatory Element (WPRE) or a Constitutive Transport Element (CTE) of Mason-Pfizer monkey Virus (Mason-Pfizer monkey Virus).
The term "vector" is a vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule, which is typically used as a vehicle for the artificial entrainment of foreign genetic material, such as the above-described nucleic acid fragments of interest, into another cell, where it replicates and/or is expressed. Functionally, all vectors can generally be used to clone and carry foreign nucleic acid fragments of interest, as well as expression vectors specifically designed for transcription of nucleic acid fragments and expression of proteins. Plasmids, viral vectors, cosmids (cosmids) and artificial chromosomes are four major types of vectors. Among these, the most commonly used vectors are plasmids. All engineered plasmid vectors contain an origin of replication for replication in bacteria, a multiple cloning site for insertion of a nucleic acid fragment of interest and a marker gene for selection of positive strains. Viral vectors are another commonly used vector, and are commonly used to deliver genetic material, such as nucleic acid fragments of interest, into cells. This process can be carried out in vivo (in vivo) or in cell culture (in vitro). The nucleic acid fragment of interest can be efficiently transferred into infected target cells based on various molecular mechanisms of virus self-evolution, such as protection of genetic material, host cell selection based on recipient, delivery of genetic material into host cells, replication and/or expression in host cells, modulation of host cell growth, metabolism, reproductive replication and defense mechanisms, and suppression and/or escape of the immune system in higher animals. In addition to being used in molecular biology research, viral vectors are also commonly used in gene therapy, cell therapy, immunotherapy, and vaccine development. In the present application, the gene segments for packaging retrovirus/lentivirus and the viral genome transcription cassette carrying the nucleic acid segment of interest can be produced by constructing the above-mentioned various vectors and transferring into host cells for viral vector production.
In the present invention, transcription of a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest transferred into a host cell is controlled by an Inducible expression system (Inducible expression system). Examples of Inducible expression systems that may be used in the present invention include, but are not limited to, the Tet-off system (see, e.g., Gossen, M. and H.Bujard (1992). "light control of gene expression in mammarian cells by tetracyclic-responsive promoters." Proc Natl Acad Sci U S89 (12): 5547-. In the Tet-On inducible expression system, a tetracycline dependent transactivator (rtTA) can bind to a Tet-On inducible expression system TRE responsive Element (a nucleic acid sequence containing multiple copies of a contiguous TetO operator sequence and a minimal promoter sequence, hereinafter referred to as a TRE) to initiate transcription of a downstream linked regulated nucleic acid fragment only in the presence of a tetracycline derivative such as tetracycline or doxycycline (Dox). Currently common Tet-On inducible expression systems include the second generation Tet-On inducible expression system (Tet-On Advanced, Clontech, where the transactivator rtTA and the response element TRE are hereinafter referred to as rtTA, respectivelyadv(encoding nucleic acid sequence: 13-756bp in SEQ ID NO: 11) and TREadv) And the third generation Tet-On inducible expression System (Tet-On 3G, Clontech, where the trans-activator rtTA and the response element TRE are hereinafter referred to as rtTA respectively3G(encoding nucleic acid sequence: 13-756bp in SEQ ID NO: 10) and TRE3G). Trans-activators rtTA and TRE in second and third generation Tet-On inducible expression systems can be used in combination, e.g., rtTAadvCan combine TREs3GUse, rtTA3GTRE can also be combinedadvThe preparation is used.
The present invention relates to the regulation of transcription of a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest during the production of a retroviral/lentiviral vector based on a tetracycline dependent nucleic acid sequence (Tet response element, TRE). Specifically, the Tet-responsive element TRE comprises at least 2 copies of a TetO-operator (TetO) sequence that binds to tetracycline dependent transactivator (rtTA), 1 copy of a minimal promoter sequence comprising a TATA box sequence; preferably, the TRE sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO 17 and SEQ ID NO 18. In one aspect of the invention, the chimeric promoter regulating transcription of the transcription cassette of the viral genome carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest comprises the above-described Tet response element TRE and the R-U5 functional domain in the LTR sequence of a retrovirus/lentivirus; preferably, the R-U5 domain is linked downstream of and spaced 20-24 base pairs from the TATA box sequence in the Tet-responsive element, more preferably spaced 24 base pairs apart. In one aspect of the invention, the R-U5 domain is the R-U5 domain of HIV-1 lentivirus, preferably the chimeric response element consisting of the Tet response element and the R-U5 domain of HIV-1 lentivirus is TRE1-RU5 (as shown in SEQ ID NO: 19) and TRE2-RU5 (as shown in SEQ ID NO: 20).
In the present invention, the gamma-retroviral genomic transcription cassette carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest may be derived from a transfer vector plasmid of an MSCV (mouse Stem Cell Virus) retroviral expression system using a 5' LTR as a promoter, such as pMSCV-IRES-mCherry FP (Addge, #52114), pMSCV-IRES-GFP (Addge, # 20672); transfer vector plasmids such as pBABE-hygro-hTERT (Addgene, #1773), pBABE-puro (Addgene, #1764) in the MoMLV (Moloney Murine Leukavirus) reverse transcription expression system using 5' LTrz as a promoter; and SIN transfer vector plasmids based on CMV-R-U5 chimeric promoter and deleted U3 functional domain of the above two reverse transcription expression systems, such as pmko.1gfp (Addgene, #10676), TtRMPVIR (Addgene, #27995), pRetroX GFP T2A Cre (Addgene, #63704), pRXTN (Addgene, # 47916). The viral genome transcription cassettes in the retroviral transfer vector plasmids described above are in principle suitable for use in the methods of the invention described herein for regulating transcription of viral genome transcription cassettes using Tet-responsive elements.
In the present invention, the lentiviral genome transcription cassette carrying the nucleic acid fragment of interest may be derived from a transfer vector plasmid of a second generation lentiviral vector such as pLVPRT-tTR-KRAB (Addgene, #11648), pLenti CMVlight eGFP Puro (w771-1) (Addgene, #26431) or a transfer vector plasmid of a third generation lentiviral vector such as pSLIK-Hygro (Addgene, #25737), pHIV-EGFP (Addgene, #21373), pSico (Addgene, #11578), pRRLSIN.cPPT.PGK-GFP.WPRE (Addgene, #12252), Tet-pLKO-Puro (Addgene, #21915), pLenti-Puro (Addgene, #39481), pLVUT-tTR-KRAB (Addgene, #11651) or the like. Most of the viral genome transcription cassettes of the third generation lentiviral vector and the second generation lentiviral vector share the nucleic acid sequences of LTR, 5' non-coding fragment, HIV-1 psi packaging signal, RRE, cPPT and gag partial sequences and the like which play key roles in the virus packaging and transduction process, and the main difference of the third generation lentiviral genome transcription cassette compared with the second generation lentiviral vector is that a constitutive active promoter such as CMV or RSV is used for replacing the U3 sequence which plays the promoter function in the 5' LTR sequence, and the U3 sequence of the 3 ' -LTR sequence is deleted, so that the lentiviral transfer vector becomes an SIN (self-activating) vector. In the third generation of lentiviral genome transcription cassettes, pSLIK-Hygro, pHIV-EGFP, pSico vector' transcribed lentiviral genomic RNA using the CMV promoter, while pRRLSIN. cPPT. PGK-GFP. WPRE, Tet-pLKO-puro, pLenti-puro transcribed lentiviral genomic RNA using the RSV promoter. Tet-pLKO-puro and pLenti-puro do not contain WPRE sequence in the lentiviral genome transcription cassette, as compared to other third generation lentiviral transfer vector plasmids. The lentivirus genome transcription cassette in the lentivirus transfer vector plasmid is basically applicable to the method for preparing the virus vector by the virus genome transcription cassette which is controlled by the Tet response element and carries the target nucleic acid segment. In one aspect of the invention, the sequence of the lentiviral genome transcription cassette used in the invention was designed based on the nucleic acid sequence in the prrlsin. cppt. pgk-gfp. wpre (Addgene, #12252) transfer vector plasmid and a plasmid construct containing this sequence was constructed.
In the present invention, retroviruses include, but are not limited to, lentiviruses such as Murine Leukemia Virus (MLV), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Equine Infectious Anemia Virus (EIAV), Murine Mammary Tumor Virus (MMTV), Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV), Fujinami sarcoma virus (FuSV), Moloney murine leukemia virus (Mo-MLV), FBR murine sarcoma virus (FBRMSV), Moloney murine sarcoma virus (Mo-MSV), Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MLV), avian myelomatosis virus-29 (MC29), and Avian Encephalomyelitis Virus (AEV), Simian immunodeficiency virus (Simian immunodeficiency virus, SIV), Feline immunodeficiency virus (Feline immunodeficiency virus, FIV), Bovine immunodeficiency virus (Bovine immunodeficiency virus, BIV), Caprine immunodeficiency virus (Caprine-encephalitis virus), Simian leukemia virus (Caprine-virus), Simian immunodeficiency virus (Caprine-virus, Caprine-associated with arms), and Simian leukemia virus (Caprine-associated with arms) Feline leukemia virus (Feline leukemia virus), Amphotropic retrovirus (Amprotropic retrovirus), tropic retrovirus (Ecotropic retrovirus), Baboon ape leukemia virus (Baboon ape leukemia virus), and all other retroviruses of the family Retroviridae (Retroviridae).
The retrovirus/lentivirus vector can be prepared by transferring a gag gene, a pol gene, a rev gene (for a lentivirus vector), an envelope glycoprotein gene and a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a target nucleic acid fragment, the transcription of which is controlled by a Tet response element (at the same time, a trans activator rtTA for controlling the Tet response element is required), into a host cell. The above-mentioned retrovirus/lentivirus vector production method can be realized by "transient production" which is represented by transferring a vector, such as a plasmid or a virus vector, containing a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest (hereinafter referred to as viral genome transcription cassette) whose transcription is regulated by a Tet-responsive element according to the present invention into a host cell, and preparing the virus vector without integration into the host cell genome. In one aspect of the invention, a retroviral/lentiviral vector is prepared by transferring into a host cell a vector construct (e.g., a plasmid or viral vector) comprising the gag gene, pol gene, rev gene (for lentiviral vectors), envelope glycoprotein gene, transactivator rtTA coding sequence, and viral genome transcription cassette, all by transient transfection. In one aspect of the invention, the transactivator rtTA coding sequence is first stably integrated into the genome of the host cell, such that the host cell stably expresses the rtTA protein. Then based on the genetically modified host cell, a retrovirus/lentivirus vector is prepared by transferring into the host cell a vector construct (e.g., a plasmid or a viral vector) comprising the gag gene, pol gene, rev gene (for a lentiviral vector), envelope glycoprotein gene, and viral genome transcription cassette, all by transient transfection. In one aspect of the invention, a trans-activator rtTA coding sequence is stably integrated into the genome of a host cell, and one, more or all of a gag gene, a pol gene, a rev gene (for lentiviral vectors), and an envelope glycoprotein gene are stably integrated into the genome of the host cell to construct a packaging cell line, and then a retrovirus/lentiviral vector is prepared by transferring the gag gene, the pol gene, the rev gene (for lentiviral vectors), and the envelope glycoprotein gene, which are not stably integrated into the packaging cell, into the packaging cell in the form of a vector construct (e.g., a plasmid or a viral vector) and a vector construct (e.g., a plasmid or a viral vector) of a viral genome transcription cassette by transient transfection. Preferably, the trans-activator rtTA coding sequence, gag gene, pol gene, rev gene (for lentiviral vectors), envelope glycoprotein gene are all stably integrated into the genome of the host cell to construct the packaging cell. The viral genome transcription cassette is then transferred into the packaging cells described above by transient transfection to produce retroviral/lentiviral vectors. In the above transient production method, tetracycline or a derivative thereof is added to induce the preparation of a retrovirus/lentivirus vector. The above-mentioned retrovirus/lentivirus vector production method can also be achieved by "stable production" which is characterized by stably integrating a viral genome transcription cassette carrying a nucleic acid fragment of interest under the control of transcription by a Tet-responsive element (hereinafter referred to as a viral genome transcription cassette) of the present invention together with a packaging gene such as a gag gene, pol gene, rev gene (for a lentivirus vector), envelope glycoprotein gene and transactivator rtTA coding sequence into the genome of a host cell to construct a production cell line, and inducing the production of a retrovirus/lentivirus vector by adding tetracycline or a derivative thereof. In one aspect of the invention, the packaging cells and producer cells described above for construction of retroviral/lentiviral vectors may be realized by a transposon system such as the Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon system and/or the piggybac (pb) transposon system.
In the present invention, the host cell useful for preparing the retrovirus/lentivirus vector is a mammalian cell. Examples of host cells suitable for use in the present disclosure are 293T cells, HepG2 cells, Hela cells, CHO cells, BHK cells, HEK293 cells, COS cells, NIH/3T3 cells, Vero cells, HT1080 cells, Te671 cells, CEM cells, NSO cells or PerC6 cells, and derivatives thereof. In one aspect, the host cell is a HEK293 cell or a cell derived from a HEK293 cell. In one aspect, the host cell is a 293T cell. In one aspect, the host cell can be cultured adherent or suspension. In one aspect, the host cell can be cultured in the presence or absence of serum.
In the present invention, tetracycline and its derivatives useful in the Tet-On inducible expression system include compounds similar in structure to tetracycline, which are capable of binding to the tetracycline-dependent transactivator rtTA of the present invention with a binding constant Ka of at least 10-6M; preferably, the binding constant Ka is at or above 10-9M. The tetracycline derivative may for example be selected from: doxycycline (Dox), anhydrotetracycline (Atc), chlorotetracycline, oxytetracycline, and doxycycline.

FIG. 4 shows that the transfer vector plasmids using TRE1-RU5(19BF124) and TRE2-RU5(19BF125) Tet chimeric response elements to regulate transcription of lentiviral genome expression cassettes are significantly higher in virus titer under induction by addition of DOX and Cumate than the conventional transfer vector plasmids using constitutively active promoters RSV and CMV. TRE1-RU5(19BF124) and TRE2-RU5(19BF125) had induced toxigenic titers of 2.42E +06RLU and 2.14E +06RLU, respectively; 3.4 times and 3.0 times of the 19BF081(RSV-RU5) and 1.6 times and 1.4 times of the 19BF123(CMV-RU5) transfer vector plasmid, respectively. Under non-inducing conditions, all transfer vector plasmids had no apparent challenge titers in EuLV293T cells, demonstrating that EuLV293T cells transcribe the lentiviral genome and package lentiviruses only in the presence of an inducer.
Example 5: production of lentiviruses in lentivirus-stable producer cell lines by viral genome transcription cassettes regulated by Tet-responsive elements
This example first stably integrates viral genome transcription cassettes carrying hPGK-Luciferase-EGFP target nucleic acid fragments, whose transcription is regulated by different promoters or Tet-responsive elements, into the genome of EuLV293T packaging cells prepared in example 4 via a "piggybac (pb) transposon system derived from Trichoplusia ni (Trichoplusia ni), wherein the transfer vector plasmids for constructing lentivirus-producing cell lines are: 19BF081, 19BF123, 19BF124 and 19BF 125. And then preparing lentiviruses in an induction mode, and comparing the virus genome transcription cassette regulated by the Tet response element with the virus genome transcription cassette regulated by a constitutive active promoter to generate the titer of the virus. The specific experimental method is as follows:
1. construction of lentivirus-stable producer cell lines by the PB transposon system
EuLV293T cells were seeded at 1.5E +06 cells per well in 60mm dishes in 3ml DMEM complete medium at 37 ℃ with 5% CO2After 24 hours of culture under the conditions, transfection was performed according to the PEI method, the total plasmid amount was 5.5ug, wherein transfection was performed according to the molar ratio of transfer vector plasmid: 18BF031 (expressing PB transposase) of 10:1, and the total PEI amount was 22 ug. Wherein the transfer vector plasmid is 19BF081, 19BF123, 19BF124 or 19BF 125. At least 3 passages were screened for cell line stability by the addition of 2.5. mu.g/ml Puromycin (Puromycin, Alantin P113126) 24 hours after transfection to give 4 lentivirus stable production cell lines, EuLV293T-19BF081, EuLV293T-19BF123, EuLV293T-19BF124 and EuLV293T-19BF125, respectively.
2. Comparison of the production Capacity of lentivirus Stable production cell lines constructed Using different transfer vector plasmids
The four lentivirus-stable producer cells described above were seeded at 1.5E +05 cells per well in 24-well plates at a culture volume of 500. mu.L, with duplicate wells set for each cell. After 24 hours of incubation, the medium was replaced and the induction group was set by adding the inducer (5mmol/L sodium butyrate, 1. mu.g/ml DOX and 200. mu.g/ml Cumate) to one of the duplicate wells and the non-induction group was set by adding only the same amount of sodium butyrate to the duplicate wells. After further incubation for 48h, the virus supernatant was collected by centrifugation at 4500rpm for 15 minutes. The assay for the titer of Luciferase virus in HT1080 cells was performed in the same manner as in example 2, and the results are shown in FIG. 5.
FIG. 5 shows the results of stable producer cell lines using TRE1-RU5(19BF124) and TRE2-RU5(19BF125) Tet chimeric response elements to regulate transcription of lentiviral genome expression cassettes at significantly higher titer of virus production induced by addition of DOX and Cumate than stable producer cell lines using conventional RSV-RU5 and CMV-RU5 chimeric promoters to regulate transcription of lentiviral genome expression cassettes. Induced titer of 3.64E +07RLU and 2.37E +07RLU in EuLV293T-19BF124(TRE1-RU5) and EuLV293T-19BF125(TRE2-RU5) producer cell lines; 9.1-fold and 5.9-fold induction of virulence titres in EuLV293T-19BF081(RSV-RU5) producer cells, respectively; 2.46-fold and 1.61-fold induction of toxin titer in EuLV293T-19BF123(CMV-RU5) producer cells, respectively. Under non-inducing conditions, no virus titers were detected in all lentivirus stable producer cell lines.
