Description

[0001] CODON OPTIMIZED PMCV SEQUENCES

[0002] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0003] This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 63 / 523,476, filed on June 27, 2023, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0004] TECHNICAL FIELD

[0005] The disclosure relates to sequences of Piscine Myocarditis Virus (PMCV) sequences that have been modified to comprise codons optimized for expression in cells.

[0006] BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0007] Cardiomyopathy syndrome (CMS) is an emerging disease of economic importance in salmon. In particular, the Piscine Myocarditis Virus (PMCV) has been identified as a causative link for CMS. PMCV is of large economic concern in the salmonid industry because it causes morbidity and mortality in adult fish that are nearly full grown and almost ready for harvest.

[0008] PMCV encodes at least three major proteins: a capsid (ORF1), an RNA- dependent RNA polymerase (ORF2), and a structural protein of unknown function (ORF3) that may be involved in virus assembly or egress. However, attempts to propagate PMCV using in vitro cell culture systems have failed. As a result, traditional live, attenuated, and inactivated vaccine approaches have not yet materialized. Thus, there exists a need for a PMCV vaccine that utilizes DNA, RNA, or recombinant approaches for design, in particular those utilizing nucleic acid sequences that have been modified to comprise codons optimized for improved expression.

[0009] Accordingly, the present disclosure, in one aspect, provides nucleic acid molecules (e.g., described in one aspect as sequences) encoding Piscine Myocarditis Virus (PMCV) protein(s). In one example, the nucleic acid sequences of the present disclosure have been modified to comprise codons optimized for improved expression in cells.
