[0032] The practice of some methods disclosed herein employ, unless otherwise indicated, conventional techniques of immunology, biochemistry, chemistry, molecular biology, microbiology, cell biology,genomics and recombinant DNA, which are within the skill of the art. See for example Sambrook and Green, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 4th Edition (2012); the series Current Protocols in Molecular Biology (F. M. Ausubel, et al. eds.); the series Methods In Enzymology (Academic Press, Inc.), PCR 2: A Practical Approach (M.J. MacPherson, B.D. Hames and G.R. Taylor eds. (1995)), Harlow and Lane, eds. (1988) Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, and Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Technique and Specialized Applications, 6th Edition (R.I. Freshney, ed. (2010)).

[0033] Viral-like particles (VLPs) are nanoscale structures comprising assembled proteins (e.g., viral components, such as structural proteins) that lack viral genetic material. VLPs can be generated from gag- pro-pol polyproteins that are retroviral, lentiviral, or endogenous (e.g., from human, such as human endogenous retrovirus). Expression of the viral components can occur in various living or cell-free expression systems, then the viral components can self-assemble and reconstruct into lipid particles. The expression of viral components through gag-pro-pol genes utilizes weak terminators or ribosomal framshifting or both for expressing gag, pro, and pol proteins. Payloads can be efficiently captured in VLPs by fusing to a gag polyprotein (i.e., forms a chimeric protein) for protein payloads or a other non- covalent binding mechanisms (e.g., gag fused to an RNA-binding protein that can bind an RNA sequence located on the payload). After the VLPs are delivered to a target cell, the payloads can be liberated from the VLPs after membrane fusion, and in some cases, after a protease cleaves a cleavable linker between the payload and the rest of the fusion protein.

[0034] Without wishing to be bound by a certain theory, the present disclosure provides improved VLPs with higher capacity of payload delivery and reduced immunogenity by modification of the components within the VLPs (e.g, a plasma membrane reruitment element comprising a mutant gag polyprotein). By utilitzing a mutant gag polyprotein as part of the plasma membrane recruitment element, such as a mutant gag with smaller size and domain swaps (e.g., swapping a nucleocapsid with a multimerization motif, such as a leucine zipper), there can be potentials for improvement in various aspects. For instance, by removing certain domains within a gag, there can be reduced packing of undesirable molecules (e.g., non- therapeutic molecules, non-specific mRNA or pDNA). Smaller total DNA sequence can allow high RNA or protein expression, for example, via higher total DNA delivery, which can offer potential for titer increase. There can be more room for payload as the size of plasma membrane recruitment element is reduced. Truncation in capsid protein can eliminate the formation of capsid cage that can sequester payloads and prevent release of the payloads upon delivery to a target cell, both of which can lead to higher encapsulation rate per particle, better release of payload in a target cell, or higher instrinsic activity. There is also potential for biodiversity advantage as the particles generated can have a smaller size. Introducing a fusion of a plasma membrane recruitment element and a protease can permit increased release and downstream activity of the payload after being delivered to a target cell. Additional modifications of the plasma membrane recruitment element or a chimeric protein comprising the plasma membrane recruitment element can include introducing additional particle budding motifs (e.g., either homologous or heterologous) to drive better budding of the particle in a producer cell, fusing a Pleckstrinhomology (PH) domain to the N-terminus of the mutant gag, or synthetic sequences with other advantages (e.g., less immunogenecity to human subjects).

[0041] Certain specific details of this description are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of various embodiments. However, one skilled in the art will understand that the present disclosure may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures have not been shown or described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring descriptions of the disclosure.

[0042] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims which follow, the word “comprise” and variations thereof, such as, “comprises” and “comprising” are to be construed in an open, inclusive sense, that is, as “including, but not limited to.” Further, headings provided herein are for convenience only and do not interpret the scope or meaning of the claimed disclosure.

[0043] As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the content clearly dictates otherwise. The use of the words “a” or “an” when used in conjunction with the term “comprising” herein may mean “one,” but it is also consistent with the meaning of “one or more,” “at least one,” and “one or more than one.”

[0044] It should also be noted that the term “or” is generally employed in its sense including “and / or” unless the content clearly dictates otherwise.

[0045] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present disclosure, suitable methods and materials are described below.

[0046] The term “about” when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, is meant to encompass variations of ±20% or in some instances ±10%, or in some instances ±5%, or in some instances ±1%, or in some instances ±0. 1% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed methods. As used herein, “about” and “approximately” generally mean an acceptable degree of error for the quantity measured given the nature or precision of themeasurements. Exemplary degrees of error are within 20 percent (%), typically, within 10%, and more typically, within 5% of a given range of values.

[0047] Calculations of homology or sequence identity between sequences (the terms are used interchangeably herein) are performed as follows. To determine the percent identity of two amino acid sequences, or of two nucleic acid sequences, the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (e.g., gaps can be introduced in one or both of a first and a second amino acid or nucleic acid sequence for optimal alignment and non-homologous sequences can be disregarded for comparison purposes). In some cases, the length of a reference sequence aligned for comparison purposes is at least 30%, preferably at least 40%, more preferably at least 50%, 60%, and even more preferably at least 70%, 80%, 90%, 100% of the length of the reference sequence. The amino acid residues or nucleotides at corresponding amino acid positions or nucleotide positions are then compared. When a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue or nucleotide as the corresponding position in the second sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position (as used herein amino acid or nucleic acid “identity” is equivalent to amino acid or nucleic acid “homology”).

[0048] The percent identity between the two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences, taking into account the number of gaps, and the length of each gap, which need to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences. The comparison of sequences and determination of percent identity between two sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm. In some cases, the percent identity between two amino acid sequences is determined using the Needleman and Wunsch ((1970) J. Mol. Biol. 48:444-453 ) algorithm which has been incorporated into the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http: / / www.gcg.com), using either a Blossum 62 matrix or a PAM250 matrix, and a gap weight of 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, or 4 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. In some cases, the percent identity between two nucleotide sequences is determined using the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http: / / www.gcg.com), using a NWSgapdna.CMP matrix and a gap weight of 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. A particularly preferred set of parameters (and the one that should be used unless otherwise specified) are a Blossum 62 scoring matrix with a gap penalty of 12, a gap extend penalty of 4, and a frameshift gap penalty of 5.

[0049] The percent identity between two amino acid or nucleotide sequences can be determined using the algorithm of E. Meyers and W. Miller ((1989) CABIOS, 4: 11-17) which has been incorporated into the ALIGN program (version 2.0), using a PAM120 weight residue table, a gap length penalty of 12 and a gap penalty of 4. The nucleic acid and protein sequences described herein can be used as a “query sequence” to perform a search against public databases to, for example, identify other family members or related sequences. Such searches can be performed using the NBLAST and XBLAST programs (version 2.0) of Altschul, et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-10. BLAST nucleotide searches can be performed with the NBLAST program, score = 100, wordlength = 12 to obtain nucleotide sequences homologous to a nucleic acid molecule of the disclosure. BLAST protein searches can be performed with the XBLAST program, score = 50, wordlength = 3 to obtain amino acid sequences homologous to protein molecules ofthe disclosure. To obtain gapped alignments for comparison purposes, Gapped BLAST can be utilized as described in Altschul et al., (1997) Nucleic Acids Res. 25:3389-3402. When utilizing BLAST and Gapped BLAST programs, the default parameters of the respective programs (e.g., XBLAST and NBLAST) can be used.

[0050] It is understood that the molecules of the present disclosure may have additional conservative or non-essential amino acid substitutions, which do not have a substantial effect on their functions.

The term “transformed cell” or “transfected cell” can be a transformed or transfected cell in which inserted DNA can replicate either as an autonomously replicating plasmid or as part of the host chromosome. In some cases, a transfected cell or transformed cell can express the inserted DNA or RNA transiently (e.g., for brief periods of time).

[0059] The terms “nucleic acid,” “nucleic acid sequence,” “nucleotide sequence,” or “polynucleotide sequence,” and “polynucleotide” are used interchangeably. They refer to a polymeric form of nucleotides of any length, either deoxy ribonucleotides or ribonucleotides, or analogs thereof. The polynucleotide may be either single -stranded or double -stranded, and if single-stranded may be the coding strand or noncoding (antisense) strand. A polynucleotide may comprise modified nucleotides, such as methylated nucleotides and nucleotide analogs. The sequence of nucleotides may be interrupted by non-nucleotide components. A polynucleotide may be further modified after polymerization, such as by conjugation with a labeling component. The nucleic acid may be a recombinant polynucleotide, or a polynucleotide of genomic, cDNA, semisynthetic, or synthetic origin which either does not occur in nature or is linked to another polynucleotide in a non-natural arrangement.

[0060] The term “cell line” or “producer cell line”, as used herein, refers to cultured cells that can be passed (e.g., divided) more than once. In some cases, a cell like can be passed more than 2 times, more than 5 times, more than 10 times, more than 50 times, more than 100 times, or more than 150 times. In some cases, a cell line can be passed between 2-250 times. In some cases, a cell line can be passed up to 200 times.

[0061] The term “lipid delivery particle” refers to lipid vesicles secreted by the plasma membrane of a cell having a membrane or envelope that surrounds a central internal space. Lipid delivery particles can be produced via budding out of the cell’s plasma membrane, secretion from lysosomes, or export by the Golgi complex.

The additions can enhance characteristics of particle assembly and / or payload recruitment. A module can occur in combination or alone. A module can be linked to a payload or another element (e.g., domain) in a construct.

[0064] The term “purifying,” “purified,” and “purify,” can be used interchangeably and refer to a preparation phase of a lipid delivery particle. A preparation of lipid delivery particles can comprise a known or unknown concentration of a substance. In some cases, purifying produced lipid delivery particles comprises removing, either partially removing or wholly removing, a portion of the produced lipid delivery particles from a sample containing one or more biological components (e.g., producer cells).

[0066] Ranges: throughout this disclosure, various aspects of the present disclosure can be presented in a range format. It should be understood that the description in range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the present disclosure. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible subranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 2.7, 3, 4, 5, 5.3, and 6. As another example, a range such as 95-99% identity, includes something with 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% identity, and includes subranges such as 96-99%, 96-98%, 96-97%, 97-99%, 97-98% and 98-99% identity. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range.LIPID DELIVERY PARTICLE

[0067] In an aspect, described herein is a lipid delivery particle comprising a plasma membrane recrtuiment element that comprises a mutant gag polyprotein for delivery of a payload to a target cell. The chimeric protein can promote targeting of a payload to a recipient cell (e.g., target cell). The lipid delivery particle can comprise a virus like particle (VLP) or an extracellular vesicle secreted by a cell. A lipid delivery particle can be secreted by cells in vivo or if cultured in vitro. Following secretion, the lipid delivery particle can deliver a payload and release its components into a recipient cell. In some cases, the lipid delivery particle can comprise a VLP, an exosome, an ectosome (e.g., a microvesicle or a shedding vesicle), an apoptotic body, a microsome, a micelle, an oncosome, or a liposome. In some cases, the lipid delivery particle can comprise a nanoparticle.

[0068] Virus-like particles (VLPs) can be assemblies of viral proteins that can infect cells but lack viral general material. VLPs can be synthesized through expression of viral structural proteins. VLPs can be formed in vivo through assembly inside a producer cell via recombinant protein expression or in vitro through self-assembly in a vessel using quantities of purified protein. VLPs can be designed to deliver payloads to targeted cells and tissues. VLPs can be used to deliver to a recipient cell an agent (e.g., prophylactic agent, therapeutic agent or diagnostic agent) or an enclosed circular or linear DNA or RNA molecule.

[0069] Ectosomes can be small heterogenous membrane-bound particles that are shed from the surface of the cell membrane in the extracellular space. Ectosomes can be shed by budding or outward blebbing from the plasma membrane of the cell. Ectosomes can be shed from plasma membrane micro-domains (e.g., lipid rafts or caveolae domains). Ectosomes have a series of biological functions, including, but not limited to, regulation of nucleic acid metabolism, signal transduction, transport, protein metabolism, intercellular communication, apoptpsis, and cell growth. As described herein, ectosomes can comprise a payload that can be delivered to a target cell. Ectosomes can be variable in size. In some cases, anectosome can be between 25 and 1000 nm. In some cases, the ecostome can be about 30 nm, about 50 nm, about 75 nm, about 100 nm, about 200 nm, about 300 nm, about 400 nm, about 500 nm, about 600 nm, about 700 nm, about 800 nm, about 900 nm, or about 1000 nm in size.

[0070] Exosomes can be small vesicular particles formed by intraluminal vesicles within multivesicular bodies. Exosome can range from about 30- about 125 nm. In some cases, an exosome is about 30 nm, about 40 nm, about 50 nm, about 55 nm, about 60 nm, about 65 nm, about 70 nm, about 75 nm, about 80 nm, about 85 nm, about 90 nm, about 95 nm, or about 100 nm in size. Formation of exosomes can be regulated via the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), and / or by non-ESCRT- related mechanisms, including tetraspanins and membrane lipids.

[0071] Nanoparticles can be synthesized particles between about 1 and about 200 nm in size that can encapsulate payload for delivery to a recipient cell. In some cases, nanoparticles are engineered for a specific cell type and trigger endocytosis and later endosome lysis. In some cases, a nanoparticle is about 5 nm, about 10 nm, about 15 nm, about 20 nm, about 25 nm, about 30 nm, about 35 nm, about 40 nm, about 45 nm, about 50 nm, about 60 nm, about 70 nm, about 80 nm, about 90 nm, or about 100 nm in size. In some cases, a nanoparticle can be about 105 nm, about 110 nm, about 115 nm, about 120 nm, about 125 nm, about 130 nm, about 135 nm, about 140 nm, about 145 nm, about 150 nm, about 160 nm, about 170 nm, about 180 nm, about 190 nm, or about 200 nm in size (e.g., a diameter). Without wishing to be bound by a theory, the small size can allow a higher intracellular uptake compared to larger molecules.ENVELOPE PROTEIN

[0072] In some aspects, the lipid delivery particle provided herein comprises an envelope protein. The envelope protein can be associated with the outside boundary or the surface of the lipid delivery particle, for example, the membrane or envelope of the lipid delivery particle.

[0073] The membrane of the lipid delivery particle can comprise a lipid layer, such as a single layer or a lipid bilayer. In some cases, the membrane of the lipid delivery particle is from plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, or a combination thereof. In some cases, the membrane of the lipid delivery particle is from Golgi complex, ER Golgi intermediate compartment, or nuclear envelope. In some cases, the membrane of the lipid delivery particle is from plasma membrane. In some cases, the membrane of the lipid delivery particle is a phospholipid bilayer.

[0074] The envelope protein can be associated with the membrane of the lipid delivery particle in various manners. For example, the envelope protein can be anchored or attached to the external membrane of the particle, or anchored or attached to the internal membrane of the particle. The envelope protein can be embedded or inserted in the membrane, spanning through the membrane, with certain portions located at the outside of the membrane, or certain portions extending to the inside of the particle, or both. The envelope protein within the lipid delivery particle described herein can be overexpressed from an exogenous source, such as plasmids or stably integrated transgenes, in the production cells.

[0075] The envelope protein can play a role in the delivery of the lipid delivery particle to a target cell and release of the components of the lipid delivery particle within the target cell. The envelope protein can contact with the surface of a target cell and participate in the fusion of the lipid delivery particle and the membrane of the target cell. The envelope protein can participate in the fusion of the lipid delivery particle with the membrane of the target cell via any appropriate mechanism, such as those described in White et al. Crit Rev Biochem Mol Biol. 2008; 43(3): 189-219. One example of the fusion mechanisms is unifying Trimer-of-Hairpins Fusion Mechanism. Membrane fusion can occur after allosteric priming by binding to a target receptor. In some cases, membrane fusion occurs after proteolysis. In some cases, membrane fusion occurs after isomerization of disulfide bridges. In some cases, membrane fusion occurs by internalization and then priming of fusion via (i) cathepsin-mediated proteolysis, or (ii) low pH / acidification. The cathepsin-mediated proteolysis can be pH dependent or pH independent. Other fusion triggering mechanisms can include low PH, binding to target cell receptors, and a receptor followed by low pH. The envelope protein can also play a role in the formation of the lipid delivery particle. The envelope protein can interact with another component within the lipid delivery particle and participate in the assembly of the lipid delivery particle, for example, in a producer cell. The envelope protein can make contact with another envelope protein and form an oligomer embedded within the membrane. The envelope protein can be a glycoprotein, for example, a transmembrane glycoprotein. In some cases, envelope protein comprises multiple membrane -spanning regions. These multiple membranespanning regions can oligomerize and form channels in the membrane.

[0076] In some cases, the envelope protein is fused with a targeting moiety. In some cases, the targeting moiety recognizes a specific molecule (e.g., antigen, receptor, or other membrane protein) on the surface of a target cell to allow targeted cell entry with more specificity. In some cases, the targeting moiety is specific for a certain cell type or is specific for a certain target cell. The targeting moiety can be fused to the envelope protein at a position that is located at an outside of the lipid delivery particle. For example, the targeting moiety includes scFvs, antibody variable regions, nanobodies, T-cell receptor variable regions, other antigen-binding fragments or their mimetics, such as DARPins. In some cases, the targeting moiety is a protein ligand from the human ligandome. The targeting moiety can be a natural peptide or a synthetic peptide. In some cases, the targeting moiety is not fused with the envelope protein and is attached to the membrane of the lipid delivery particle from the outside, for example, via a transmembrane domain.

[0077] A targeting moiety can include, e.g. , an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof (e.g. , Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv fragments, scFv antibody fragments, disulfide-linked Fvs (sdFv), a Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CHI domains, linear antibodies, single domain antibodies such as sdAb (either VL or VH), nanobodies, or camelid VHH domains), an antigen-binding fibronectin type III (Fn3) scaffold such as a fibronectin polypeptide minibody, a ligand, a cytokine, a chemokine, or a T cell receptor (TCRs). Membrane -fusion proteins can be re-targeted by non-covalently conjugating a targeting moiety to the membrane-fusion protein or targeting protein (e.g. the hemagglutinin protein). For example, themembrane -fusion protein can be engineered to bind the Fc region of an antibody that targets an antigen on a target cell, redirecting the membrane fusion activity towards cells that display the antibody’s target.

[0078] In some cases, the targeting moiety linked to the membrane-fusion protein binds a cell surface marker on the target cell, e.g., a protein, glycoprotein, receptor, cell surface ligand, agonist, lipid, sugar, class I transmembrane protein, class II transmembrane protein, or class III transmembrane protein.

[0105] *hGAGKcon is a consensus sequence from ten proviral GAG sequences. The GAG sequences used to derive this consensus GAG sequence are from the following HERVs: HERV-K113, HERV-K101, HERV-K102, HERV-K104, HERV-K107, HERV-K108, HERV-K109, HERV-K115, HERV- KI lp22, and HERV-K12ql3.

[0106] In some cases, the lipid delivery particle disclosed herein comprises a protein core that is composed of at least a structural protein of a viral origin, for instance, a retroviral gag protein. In some of these cases, the lipid delivery particle comprises a retroviral gag-pro-pol polyprotein, e.g., a gag-pro-pol poly protein from HIV, MMLV, or FMLV, which can help assemble a protein core of the lipid delivery particle. In some of these cases, some of the gag-pro-pol polyprotein is cleaved, e.g., by pro (protease) present freely or in the gag-pro-pol polyprotein. Without wishing to be bound by any particular theory, the cleavage by pro can be inefficient, and the resultant cleavage products can include gag polyprotein, gag -pro polyprotein, free pro, and free pol (polymerase). In some cases, a retroviral gag polyprotein can be further cleaved into MA, CA, NC, and other small fragments, if any. In some other cases, the lipid delivery particle comprises a retroviral gag-pro polyprotein without the pol component, and the gag-pro polyprotein can help form a protein core of the lipid delivery particle. The gag -pro can also be cleaved by pro, in some cases, inefficiently, into separate gag and pro proteins. In some cases, there can be different plasma membrane recruitment elements in a lipid delivery particle. For instance, a gag -pro or gag-pro-pol polyprotein from one species of virus (e.g., a retrovirus, e.g., a HIV) can help assemble form a protein core of the lipid delivery particle, while a chimeric protein in the lipid delivery particle, discussed infra, can comprise a payload fused with a gag protein from a different species of virus (e.g., an MMLV), orfrom a HERV, or a PH domain or transmembrane domain of a huma protein (e.g. , a PH domain of humanAktl with E17K substitutionMutant gag polyprotein
