[0089] Materials and methods

[0090] Plasmid construction

[0091] The ubiquitin / tyrosinase fusion gene was constructed and cloned into the MVA transfer vector pIIIdHR-P7.5. Here we establish a hybridization PCR method in which the ubiquitin (Ub) gene can be fused to the tyrosinase (hTyr) cDNA without insertion of any additional non-Ub or non-hTyr DNA sequences. Because ubiquitin expressed as a protein fusion is cleaved by cytoplasmic proteases at its G76 residue, we focused on mutating G76 to A76, which has been shown to inhibit cytoplasmic cleavage when expressed from a plasmid vector (Rodriguez F et al. J Virol, 1997).

[0092] In a first step, ubiquitin was amplified from RNA preparations of murine B16 melanoma cells in standard reverse transcriptase PCR according to the manufacturer's instructions (Titan One Tube RT-PCR System, Roche).

Abstract

The present invention is directed to a recombinant MVA, which carries a nucleic acid sequence coding for a fusion protein. The present invention is further directed to a kit of parts containing said recombinant MVA as well as to a method for enhancing T cell responses in a mammal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) carrying a nucleic acid sequence encoding a fusion protein. The invention also relates to kits comprising said recombinant MVA, and methods of enhancing T cell responses in mammals. Background technique [0002] Vaccinia virus (VV) belongs to the Orthopoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family. Certain strains of vaccinia virus have been used for many years as live vaccines against smallpox, such as the Elstree strain from the Lister Institute in the United Kingdom. Due to the possible complications of vaccination (Schr, Zeitschr. für Prventivmedizin 18, 41-44, 1973), and since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared smallpox eradicated in 1980, only high-risk groups are now vaccinated to prevent against smallpox. [0003] Vaccinia virus is also used as a vehicle for the production and delivery of foreign antigens (Smith et al., Biotechnology and Genetic Engineer...
