High efficiency single step production of expression plasmids from cDNA clones using the Flexi Vector cloning system.

The success of structural genomics and proteomics initiatives is dependent on the availability of target genes in vectors suitable for protein production. Here, we compare two high-throughput methods for producing expression vectors from plasmid-derived cDNA fragments. Expression vectors were constructed for compatibility with the Gateway recombination cloning system and the Flexi Vector restriction-based cloning system. Cloning protocols for each system were conducted in parallel for 96 different target genes from PCR through the production of sequence-verified expression clones. The short nucleotide sequences required to prepare the target open reading frames for Flexi Vector cloning allowed a single-step PCR protocol, resulting in fewer mutations relative to the Gateway protocol. Furthermore, through initial cloning of the target open reading frames directly into an expression vector, the Flexi Vector system gave time and cost savings compared to the protocol required for the Gateway system. Within the Flexi Vector system, genes were transferred between four different expression vectors. The efficiency of gene transfer between Flexi Vectors depended on including a region of sequence identity adjacent to one of the restriction sites. With the proper construction in the flanking sequence of the vector, gene transfer efficiencies of 95-98% were demonstrated.

Comparison of transgene expression mediated by several Fiber-modified adenovirus vectors in trophoblast cells.

The transfer of genes of interest is a useful method for studying placental biology. Recombinant adenovirus (Ad) vector is an efficient vector for transgene expression. An interaction between the fiber of Ad and the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor on the cell membrane is the first step in infection. We previously developed fiber-modified Ad vectors and showed that they improved transgene activity in several cell lines when compared to wild-type vector. In the present study, we examined the ability of three fiber-modified Ad vectors to transduce human choriocarcinoma cell lines (JEG-3, JAR and BeWo) and rat trophoblast cell lines (Rcho-1, TR-TBT 18d-1 and TR-TBT 18d-2). We compared the transgene efficacy of wild-type Ad-L2 vector, Ad-RGD(HI)-L2 vector containing an Arg-Gly-Asp motif, Ad-K7(C)-L2 vector containing a 7-tandem lysine motif, and Ad-RGD(HI)K7(C)-L2 vector containing both motifs in the fiber. We used the luciferase gene as a reporter gene. In the human and rodent trophoblast cell lines, Ad-RGD(HI)-L2 had the greatest infectious potential, followed by Ad-RGD(HI)K7(C)-L2, Ad-K7(C)-L2 and Ad-L2. Compared to the amount of luciferase produced by wild-type vector, Ad-RGD(HI)-L2 mediated 8.1-fold the amount of luciferase in JEG-3 cells, 13.5-fold in JAR cells, 76.8-fold in BeWo cells, 5.0-fold in Rcho-1, 19.4-fold in TR-TBT 18d-1 and 15.0-fold in TR-TBT 18d-2. These results indicate that Ad-RGD(HI) is a potential recombinant Ad vector for transgene expression in some trophoblast cell lines.

Efficient and non-toxic gene transfer to cardiomyocytes using novel generation amplicon vectors derived from HSV-1.

OBJECTIVE: The feasibility of gene transfer to myocardial tissue using viral vectors was investigated over the last few years. In this study we report gene transfer using a recently described improved of Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1)-derived amplicon vectors and demonstrate that these vectors are a powerful and potentially very interesting tool for gene transfer into neonatal primary as well as in adult cardiac myocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Non-pathogenic HSV-1 amplicon vectors simultaneously expressing GFP and LacZ were constructed using a novel helper system that yields essentially helper-free vector particles. These vectors were used to infect either cultured primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes or adult cardiac tissue. Transgenic expression was quantified using a FACS (GFP) or X-gal staining (LacZ). Infection of primary cardiomyocytes showed efficient transduction even at very low multiplicity of infection (MOI), and expression increased with the infectious dose. By investigating release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) or spontaneous beating of the cells, we failed to detect cytotoxic effects in cardiomyocytes infected at high MOI. Thin slices of adult cardiac tissue placed in medium containing vectors also showed very good levels of transduction, without any evidence of toxic effects. CONCLUSIONS: Helper-free amplicon vectors very efficiently transduce genes into cardiomyocytes. Our results indicate similar or better transduction efficiencies than those reported using other vector systems. Furthermore, the very high transgenic capacity of amplicon vectors (up to 150 kbp) makes these vectors a unique and very suitable system to transduce large genomic sequences into cardiomyocytes.

Lentiviral and MLV based retroviral vectors for ex vivo and in vivo gene transfer.

Retroviral vectors have become an important tool for gene transfer in vitro and in vivo. Classical Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV) based retroviral vectors have been used for over 20 years to transfer genes into dividing cells. Cell lines for production of retroviral vectors have become commonly available and modifications in retroviral vector design and use of envelope proteins have made the production of high titer, helper-free, infectious virus stocks relatively easy. More recently, lentiviral vectors, another class of retroviruses, have been modified for in vitro and in vivo gene transfer. The ability of lentiviral vectors to transduce non-dividing cells has made them especially attractive for in vivo gene transfer into differentiated, non-dividing tissues. Several improvements in helper plasmids and vectors have made lentivirus a safe vector system for ex vivo and in vivo gene transfer. This review will briefly summarize the background of these vector systems and provide some common protocols available for the preparation of MLV based retroviral vectors and HIV-1 based lentiviral vectors.

Self-complementary adeno-associated virus serotype 2 vector: global distribution and broad dispersion of AAV-mediated transgene expression in mouse brain.

The blood-brain barrier is the main obstacle to efficient delivery of therapeutic reagents, including viral vectors, into the central nervous system (CNS) for treating global CNS diseases. In this study, the effects of mannitol infusions on global brain gene expression of a novel AAV vector were examined after intravenous (i.v.) or intracisternal injection. Initially, a self-complementary adeno-associated virus serotype 2 vector (scAAV) was compared to traditional single-stranded AAV2 vector for reporter gene expression in the brain of adult mice with or without pretreatment of an i.v. mannitol infusion. One to two months postinjection, analysis of vector-transduced green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression in the brain revealed that vector delivery to the CNS via i.v. injection required pretreatment with mannitol. This expression was observed only when scAAV vectors were used. Using these conditions, transgene expression was observed in various neurons and glial cells throughout the brain. The peripherally administered scAAV vectors also transduced the cells in multiple somatic tissues with efficient expression in liver (20-30% of hepatocytes), but was less efficient in other somatic tissues. Intracisternal injection of scAAV vector produced a broad and intense transgene expression in both neurons and glial cells in the CNS of injected mice ranging from the olfactory area to the brain stem and spinal cord. More than 50% of the Purkinje cells in the cerebellum expressed GFP. Intravenous infusion of mannitol before intracisternal injection of the scAAV vector enhanced the dispersion of the vector in the CNS. Further optimization of these steps combining peripheral and intracisternal scAAV gene delivery should facilitate the development of treatments for global CNS diseases, especially diseases involving both the somatic system and the CNS, such as lysosomal storage disorders.

A single-LTR HIV-1 vector optimized for functional genomics applications.

The development of high-throughput methods of converting simple expression cassettes into lentiviral vectors and expediting the process of retrieving vector genomes that carry candidate genes from host DNA will facilitate the use of lentiviral vectors as an efficient means of screening novel gene function. To optimize lentiviral vectors for functional genomic applications we have developed a shuttle HIV-1 vector containing a single LTR. Incorporation of a LoxP site and the Sbfl restriction enzyme site into the vector LTR allowed for the rescue of integrated vector genomes into individual bacterial clones. Vector DNA isolated from bacteria was used for a second round of functional screening. Furthermore, we identified a continuous DNA sequence containing all the cis elements required for vector production. Incorporating the isolated sequence into expression cassettes resulted in the generation of HIV-1 vectors in a single cloning step, which imparts a simplified procedure for converting cDNA expression cassettes into single-LTR lentiviral vectors.

A new generation of retroviral producer cells: predictable and stable virus production by Flp-mediated site-specific integration of retroviral vectors.

We developed a new strategy that provides well-defined high-titer producer cells for recombinant retroviruses in a minimum amount of time. The strategy involves the targeted integration of the retroviral vector into a chromosomal locus with favorable properties. For proof of concept we established a novel HEK293-based retroviral producer cell line, called Flp293A, with a single-copy retroviral vector integrated at a selected chromosomal locus. The vector was flanked by noninteracting Flp-recombinase recognition sites and was exchanged for different retroviral vectors via Flp-mediated cassette exchange. All analyzed cell clones showed correct integration and identical titers for each of the vectors, confirming that the expression characteristics from the parental cell were preserved. Titers up to 2.5 x 10(7) infectious particles/10(6) cells were obtained. Also, high-titer producer cells for a therapeutic vector that encodes the 8.9-kb collagen VII cDNA in a marker-free cassette were obtained within 3 weeks without screening. Thus, we provide evidence that the precise integration of viral vectors into a favorable chromosomal locus leads to high and predictable virus production. This method is compatible with other retroviral vectors, including self-inactivating vectors and marker-free vectors. Further, it provides a tool for evaluation of different retroviral vector designs.

High-level expression of exogenous genes by replication-competent retrovirus vectors with an internal ribosomal entry site.

We report the construction of two types of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV)-based replication-competent avian retrovirus vectors, IR1 and IR2 to express an exogenous gene at a very high level. In these vectors, the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) derived from encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) was inserted between the env gene and an exogenous gene. The IR1 vector retains the splicing acceptor site that is present in the downstream of the env gene while the IR2 vector lacks it. Using a v-fos mutant (v-fos-CD3) as an example of exogenous genes, we show here that both IR1 and IR2 vectors expressed the gene product, CD3, at expression levels 5- and 8-fold higher than that of their parental vector without IRES, respectively. These vectors were moderately stable and kept a high-level expression of CD3 for at least three passages through the cells. Analysis of viral transcripts indicate that exogenous genes carried by both IR vectors were translated exclusively from the IRES that is present in all the species of the viral transcripts. High-level expression of exogenous genes was also observed in the case of the Hoxa-13 gene in the IR1 vector or the fra-2 gene in the IR2 vector, indicating that the extremely high-level expression characteristic of these vectors is applicable to several exogenous genes.

Generation and characterization of chimeric recombinant AAV vectors.

Although most animal experiments with recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have been based on AAV serotype 2, recent studies showed that AAV vectors based on AAV serotype 1 performed more efficiently in muscle and other tissues. On the other hand, AAV2-based vectors can be readily purified by heparin column. To combine the advantages of both types of vectors, we developed a strategy to generate chimeric vectors by using a mixture of AAV helper plasmids encoding both serotypes in the transfection process. Because the AAV packaging machinery cannot distinguish between closely related AAV1 and AAV2 capsid proteins, each packaged virion contains capsid proteins from both serotypes. As expected, the resulting chimeric vectors could be purified by heparin column. Neutralizing antibody assays showed that the chimeric vectors can be inhibited by either AAV1 or AAV2 antiserum. In vivo, the chimeric vectors direct levels of expression similar to those of AAV1 in muscle or AAV2 in liver; that is, they combine the best transduction characteristics of both parent vectors. In summary, this study provides a straightforward method for combining various properties of different AAV serotypes into one vector. Potential limitations of the chimeric vectors are also discussed.

A set of modular plant transformation vectors allowing flexible insertion of up to six expression units.

We have constructed a binary vector for Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation, which has a multiple cloning site consisting of 13 hexanucleotide restriction sites, 6 octanucleotide restriction sites and 5 homing endonuclease sites. The homing endonuclease sites have the advantages to be extremely rare in natural sequences and to allow unidirectional cloning. We have also constructed a set of auxiliary vectors allowing the assembly of expression cassettes flanked by homing endonuclease sites. The expression cassettes assembled in these auxiliary vectors can be transferred into the binary vector with virtually no risk of cutting the vector within previously introduced sequences. This vector set is ideally suited for the construction of plant transformation vectors containing multiple expression cassettes and/or other elements such as matrix attachment regions. With this modular vector system, six different expression units were constructed in as many auxiliary vectors and assembled together in one plant transformation vector. The transgenic nature of Arabidopsis thaliana plants, transformed with this plant transformation vector, was assessed and the expression of each of the six genes was demonstrated.

Comparison of methotrexate resistance conferred by a mutated dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) cDNA in two different retroviral vectors.

We previously reported the protection of hematopoietic cells from methotrexate (MTX) toxicity using an N2-based double copy vector containing serine 31 (S31)-mutated dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) (DC/SV6S31). To examine whether the use of SFG-based dicistronic vectors will lead to improvement in gene transfer over the DC/SV6 vector, we compared the protection provided by MTX to NIH3T3 cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells infected with these retroviral constructs containing the S31 variant DHFR cDNA. In NIH3T3 cells, the 50% effective dose values of MTX conferred by the SFG vector were 8-fold higher than those obtained with the DC/SV6 vector. DHFR mRNA levels were 22-fold and 38-fold higher than that seen for the DC/SV6 vector according to Northern blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, respectively. However, DHFR protein expression and DHFR enzyme activity were only 1.5-fold and 2-fold higher in the SFG vector, respectively, indicating that the mRNA from the SFG vector is translated less efficiently than the mRNA generated from the DC/SV6 vector. Furthermore, the degree of MTX protection conferred by each vector in both mouse and human hematopoietic cells was the same. These results indicate that the in vitro transduction efficiency and transgene expression of human DHFR in hematopoietic progenitor cells is equally conferred by both vectors.

Transgene amplification and persistence after delivery of retroviral vector and packaging functions with E1/E4-deleted adenoviruses.

Adenovirus DNA is rapidly lost in actively dividing cells. In addition, first-generation (E1-defective) vectors trigger a strong cytotoxicity that impairs the duration of transgene expression. To solve these issues, we have developed a chimeric vector system that uses E1/E4 doubly defective adenoviruses for efficient production of infectious retroviral vectors. The retroviral vector sequences and packaging functions were split into two E1/E3/E4-deleted adenoviral vectors: the Moloney murine leukemia virus gag-pol cistron was expressed from the human EF1 alpha (elongation factor) promoter (AdGAG/POL), whereas the thymidine kinase transgene, embedded in a retroviral vector context, and an amphotropic retroviral envelope cassette were included within a second adenovirus (AdTK/ENV). This chimeric vector system was evaluated with a special emphasis on recombinant retrovirus production in vitro, as well as transgene amplification and persistence in vivo. Retrovirus titers of >10(5) infectious units/mL were routinely obtained in W162 cells coinfected with both recombinant adenoviruses. Long-term transgene persistence (up to 3 months) was demonstrated in vitro in two different cell lines coinfected with AdGAG/POL and AdTK/ENV, and correlated with the detection of specific provirus sequences. A 10- to 50-fold transgene amplification also was demonstrated in an in vivo tumor model infected with the Ad/Rt chimeric vector system. The chimeric vector system described herein combines the efficiency of gene delivery by recombinant adenoviruses with the integrative properties of infectious retroviral vectors. This versatile vector system may open up new avenues for efficient production of oncogenic, but also non-oncogenic, retroviruses from cells of non-murine origin.

Experimental therapy of allogeneic solid tumors induced in athymic mice with suicide gene-transducing replication-competent foamy virus vectors.

A replication competent foamy virus derived retroviral vector expressing suicide genes has been constructed and characterized in vitro. Here we used vectors expressing the purine nucleoside phosphorylase (FOV-7/pnp), the nitroreductase (FOV-7/ntr), or the thymidine kinase (FOV-7/tk) suicide gene in an in vivo athymic (nude) mice/human glioblastoma tumor model. Gliomas were induced by subcutanous injection of U87 tumor cells. The virus vector was injected when the tumor became visible. Mice with vector virus-injected tumors were treated with the respective prodrug. The treatment resulted in significant inhibition of tumor growth. Surprisingly, in mice with vector virus-injected tumors without prodrug treatment a similar suppression of tumor growth was observed. In 65% (pnp vector), 75% (ntr vector) and 37% (tk vector) of these mice the tumors stopped growing or vanished and the animals remained tumor free for the 25 weeks of the experiment, whereas all mice of the control groups had to be killed because of the tumor growth. In control experiments, the suppression of tumor growth could also be observed when wild-type foamy virus was injected instead of the suicide gene-transducing vectors. Similar results were obtained using the nude mice/G59 human glioblastoma tumor model. In conclusion, the experiments demonstrate an oncolytic activity of foamy virus replication in a nude-mice glioblastoma xenograft tumor model. The analysis of vector virus DNA by PCR revealed that the vector persisted in different organs of the animals irrespective of the use of a prodrug or the elimination of a tumor.

Characterization of novel safe lentiviral vectors derived from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVmac251) that efficiently transduce mature human dendritic cells.

We describe the generation and the characterization of new lentiviral vectors derived from SIVmac251, a simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). A methodical approach was used to engineer both efficient and safe packaging constructs allowing the production of SIV viral core proteins. SIV-vectors encoding GFP (green fluorescent protein) were generated as VSV-G-pseudotyped particles upon transient expression of the vector construct and helper functions in 293 cells. The SIV vectors were able to transduce efficiently various target cell types at low multiplicity of infection, including monocyte-differentiated human dendritic cells (DCs) which retained their capacity to differentiate into mature DCs after gene transfer. Transduction of the DCs by the SIV vectors was prevented when infections were performed in the presence of AZT, a reverse-transcriptase inhibitor. After gene transfer, expression of the GFP in the target cells remained constant after several weeks, indicating that the vectors had been stably integrated into the genome of the host cells. Preparations of SIV vectors were systematically checked for the absence of replication-competent and recombinant retroviruses but remained negative, suggesting the innocuousness of these novel gene delivery vectors. Side-to-side comparisons with vectors derived from HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus) indicated that the SIV vectors were equally potent in transducing proliferating target cells. Finally, we have determined the infectivity of SIV vectors pseudotyped with surface glycoproteins of several membrane-enveloped viruses.

Onco-retroviral and lentiviral vector-based gene therapy for hemophilia: preclinical studies.

Hemophilia A and B gene therapy requires long-term and stable expression of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) or factor IX (FIX), respectively, and would need to compare favorably with protein replacement therapy. Onco-retroviral and lentiviral vectors are attractive vectors for gene therapy of hemophilia. These vectors have the potential for long-term expression because they integrate stably in the target cell genome. Whereas onco-retroviral vectors can only transduce dividing cells, lentiviral vectors can transduce a broad variety of cell types irrespective of cell division. Several preclinical and clinical studies have explored the use of onco-retroviral and, more recently, lentiviral vectors for gene therapy of hemophilia A or B. Both ex vivo and in vivo gene therapy approaches have been evaluated, resulting in therapeutic FVIII or FIX levels in preclinical animal models. Whereas in vivo gene therapy using onco-retroviral or lentiviral vectors often led to long-term FVIII or FIX expression from transduced hepatocytes, ex vivo approaches were generally hampered by either low or transient expression of FVIII or FIX levels in vivo and/or inefficient engraftment. Furthermore, immune responses against the transgene product remain a major issue that must be resolved before the full potential of these vectors eventually can be exploited clinically. Nevertheless, the continued progress in vector design combined with a better understanding of vector biology may ultimately yield more effective gene therapy approaches using these integrating vectors.

Transient foreign gene expression in chloroplasts of cultured tobacco cells after biolistic delivery of chloroplast vectors.

Expression of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) by suitable vectors in chloroplasts of cultured tobacco cells, delivered by high-velocity microprojectiles, is reported here. Several chloroplast expression vectors containing bacterial cat genes, placed under the control of either psbA promoter region from pea (pHD series) or rbcL promoter region from maize (pAC series) have been used in this study. In addition, chloroplast expression vectors containing replicon fragments from pea, tobacco, or maize chloroplast DNA have also been tested for efficiency and duration of cat expression in chloroplasts of tobacco cells. Cultured NT1 tobacco cells collected on filter papers were bombarded with tungsten particles coated with pUC118 (negative control), 35S-CAT (nuclear expression vector), pHD312 (repliconless chloroplast expression vector), and pHD407, pACp18, and pACp19 (chloroplast expression vectors with replicon). Sonic extracts of cells bombarded with pUC118 showed no detectable cat activity in the autoradiograms. Nuclear expression of cat reached two-thirds of the maximal 48 hr after bombardment and the maximal at 72 hr. Cells bombarded with chloroplast expression vectors showed a low level of expression until 48 hr of incubation. A dramatic increase in the expression of cat was observed 24 hr after the addition of fresh medium to cultured cells in samples bombarded with pHD407; the repliconless vector pHD312 showed about 50% of this maximal activity. The expression of nuclear cat and the repliconless chloroplast vector decreased after 72 hr, but a high level of chloroplast cat expression was maintained in cells bombarded with pHD407. Organelle-specific expression of cat in appropriate compartments was checked by introducing various plasmid constructions into tobacco protoplasts by electroporation. Although the nuclear expression vector 35S-CAT showed expression of cat, no activity was observed with any chloroplast vectors.

Persistence in muscle of an adenoviral vector that lacks all viral genes.

Genetic correction of inherited muscle diseases, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, will require long term expression of the recombinant protein following gene transfer. We have shown previously that a new adenoviral vector that lacks all viral genes expressed both full-length dystrophin and beta-galactosidase in mdx (dystrophin-deficient) mouse muscle. We observed a significant histologic improvement of vector-transduced mdx muscle before the eventual loss of vector-encoded transgene expression. In this study, we investigated whether an immunological response against vector-encoded beta-galactosidase contributed to the loss of vector expression and affected vector persistence in muscle. Intramuscular vector injection in control normal mice resulted in an early and complete loss of beta-galactosidase expression accompanied by predominantly CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytic infiltration and a significant loss of vector DNA. In contrast, intramuscular vector injection in lacZ transgenic mice resulted in persistent expression of beta-galactosidase for at least 84 days with no evidence of inflammation or significant loss of vector DNA. Our studies demonstrate that, in the absence of an immune response induced by beta-galactosidase expression, an adenoviral vector lacking all viral genes is stably maintained in muscle.

Cardiomyocyte-specific gene expression following recombinant adeno-associated viral vector transduction.

Recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vectors hold promise for delivering genes for heart diseases, but cardiac-specific expression by the use of rAAV has not been demonstrated. To achieve this goal rAAV vectors were generated expressing marker or potentially therapeutic genes under the control of the cardiac muscle-specific alpha myosin heavy chain (MHC) gene promoter. The rAAV-MHC vectors expressed in primary cardiomyocytes with similar kinetics to rAAV-CMV; however, expression by the rAAV-MHC vectors was restricted to cardiomyocytes. rAAV vectors have low cytotoxicity, and it is demonstrated here that rAAV fails to induce apoptosis in cardiomyocytes compared with a recombinant adenoviral vector. rAAV-MHC or rAAV-CMV vectors were administered to mice to determine the specificity of expression in vivo. The rAAV-MHC vectors expressed specifically in cardiomyocytes, whereas the control rAAV-CMV vector expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, and brain. rAAV-MHC transduction resulted in long term (16 weeks) expression of human growth hormone following intracardiac, yet not intramuscular, injection. Finally, we defined the minimal MHC enhancer/promoter sequences required for specific and robust in vivo expression in the context of a rAAV vector. For the first time we describe a panel of rAAV vectors capable of long term cardiac specific expression of intracellular and secreted proteins.
