Definitions

  • the present invention provides the use of a fusion protein comprising a site-specific DNA recombinase domain and a protein transduction domain for preparing an agent for inducing target gene alteration in a living organism or in cultured cells, suitable fusion proteins and a method for the production of said fusion proteins.
  • ES cells totipotent mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells
  • Capecchi Trends in Genetics 5, 70 - 76 (1989)
  • ES cells can pass mutations induced in vitro to transgenic offspring in vivo, it is possible to analyze the consequences of gene disruption in the context of the entire organism.
  • numerous mouse strains with functionally inactivated genes (“knock out mice”) have been created by this technology and utilized to study the biological function of a variety of genes.
  • conditional mutagenesis employs a site-specific recombination system (e.g. Cre/loxP or Flp/frt - Sauer and Henderson, N. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85, 5166- 5170 (1988); Senecoff et al., 3. Mol. Biol., 201, 405 - 421 (1988)) which enables a temporally and/or spatially restricted alteration of target genes (Rajewsky et al., J. Clin. Invest., 98, 600 - 603 (1996)).
  • the creation of conditional mouse mutants requires the generation of two mouse strains, i.e.
  • the recombinase recognition strain is generated by homologous recombination in ES cells as described above except that the targeted exon(s) is (are) flanked by two recombinase recognition sequences (hereinafter "RRS"; e.g. loxP or frt).
  • RRS recombinase recognition sequences
  • the type of recombination event mediated by the recombinase depends on the disposition of the RRS, with deletions, inversions, translocations and integrations being possible (Torres and K ⁇ hn, Oxford University Press, Oxford, New York (1997)). By placing the RRS into introns, an interference with gene expression before recombination can be avoided.
  • the recombinase expressing strain contains a recombinase transgene (e.g. Cre, Flp) whose expression is either restricted to certain cells and tissues or is inducible by external agents.
  • Crossing of the recombinase recognition strain with the recombinase expressing strain recombines the RRS-flanked exons from the doubly transgenic offspring in a prespecified temporally and/or spatially restricted manner.
  • the method allows the temporal analysis of gene function in particular cells and tissues of otherwise widely expressed genes. Moreover, it enables the analysis of gene function in the adult organism by circumventing embryonic lethality which is frequently the consequence of gene mutation.
  • inducible mutations provide an excellent genetic tool.
  • the current systems for inducible recombinase expression in transgenic animals suffer from a certain degree of leakiness in the absence of the inducer (K ⁇ hn et al., Science 269(5229): 1427-9 (1995); Schwenk et al., Nucleic Acids Res.; 26(6): 1427-32 (1998)).
  • conditional mutants is a time consuming and labor intensive procedure, since the recombinase recognition strain and the recombinase expressing strain have to be breed at least over two generations in order to obtain animals carrying both, the recombinase transgene and two copies of the RRS-flanked target gene sequence.
  • PTD Protein tranduction domains
  • WO 99/29721 moreover mentions TAT mutants having an enhanced activity as compared to the wild-type peptide. Fusion of PTDs to heterologuous proteins conferred the ability to transduce into cultured cells (Fawell et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
  • WO 99/11809 mentions a fusion protein Antp-Cre and emphasizes that it may be used to deliver the Cre into the cell which recombines inside the cell nucleus. It is mentioned that the fusion protein is suitable for manipulating genomic DNA at precise locations in a temporal regulated manner.
  • WO 99/60142 discloses vector constructs for gene therapy carrying a tumor cell sensitizing gene, a sensitizing gene expression regulatory system, a control gene and a control gene expression regulatory system, wherein the control gene can be a fusion gene consisting of a recombinase (viz. Cre or Flp) and a trafficking protein (viz. VP22).
  • the Antennapedia PTD is not a generally applicable transducing protein, namely it has only a limited activity with proteins having more than 100 amino acid residues (Derossi et al., Trends Cell Biol. 8: 84-87, 1998).
  • the limited transducing activity of the Antp PTD and the size of the generally known recombinases ranging from about 200 to about 600 amino acid residues
  • site-specific DNA recombinase proteins can be translocated into cells of a living organism when fused to specific protein transduction domains, namely transduction domains being derived from the VP22 protein of HSV or from the TAT protein of HIV.
  • transduction domains being derived from the VP22 protein of HSV or from the TAT protein of HIV.

  • a PTD being derived from the VP22 protein of HSV or from the TAT protein of HIV provided that when the site-specific DNA recombinase domain is wild-type Cre or Flp then the PTD is not the full length VP22 PTD of HSV (i.e., the fusion protein is not identical to the fusion protein of Dalby and Bennett, Invitrogen, Expressions 6.2, page 13 (1999) and of WO 99/60142);
