CD4+HELPER EPITOPES AND USES TO ENHANCE ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC IMMUNE RESPONSES

BACKGROUND

Vaccination is an approach where antigenic materials are introduced into the hosts to elicit adaptive immune responses that may confer them with protection from subsequent pathogen exposure (Clem, 2011). Humoral immunity is an important branch of the adaptive immune system, in which antibodies produced by B cells serve either to directly neutralize targets on the pathogens through paratope-epitope interactions (Corti and Lanzavecchia, 2013; Kwong et al., 2013), or to indirectly mediate inactivation of the pathogens by engaging the complement system or effector cells such as macrophages and natural killer cells through Fc-dependent mechanisms (Kurdi et al., 2018; Seidel et al., 2013; van Erp et al., 2019). Antibody responses serve as an important correlate for protection for many emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, including but not limited to HIV-1 (Burton and Hangartner, 2016), influenza (Laursen et al., 2018), and coronaviruses (Jiang et al., 2020). A strategy to enhance humoral responses induced by vaccination is, therefore, of great significance.

CD4+ T cells, particularly T-follicular helper (Tfh) cells, play a critical role in the maturation of antibody responses (Crotty, 2014). In the germinal center, immunological synapses are formed between Tfh and Germinal Center B (GCB) cells through interactions of pairs of adhesion molecules such as LFA1-ICAM-1 and SAP-Ly108 to enable transfer of soluble cytokines, such as IL-4 and IL-21, from Tfh to GCB cells and promote ligand-receptor interaction, such as CD40L-CD40 binding, to enhance survival, differentiation, somatic hypermutation, and class switching in the GCB cells (Carrasco et al., 2004; Elgueta et al., 2009; Flynn et al., 1998; Kageyama et al., 2012). Provision of T-cell help, however, is contingent upon Tfh activation by GCB cells through T-cell receptor (TCR) peptide-MHC II interaction (Zhang et al., 2013). As such, robust germinal center B-cell responses are dependent on presentation of MHC II-restricted epitope, derived from the antigen, by GCB to Tfh cells. However, different epitopes have varying affinity for binding to MHC-II receptors depending on the hosts' haplotype such that peptide vaccines as well as smaller protein domains may not intrinsically contain a potent CD4+ helper epitope to drive germinal center responses (Elbahnasawy et al., 2018; Falugi et al., 2001; Pichichero, 2013). Such is the rationale for conjugating peptide and carbohydrate vaccines to protein carriers, like Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) (Ragupathi et al., 2002), tetanus toxin (Diethelm-Okita et al., 2000), or hepatitis B-surface antigen (HbsAg) (Collins et al., 2017). However, these large protein carriers may contain irrelevant immunodominant surfaces which may skew induced antibody responses away from the desired epitopes, creating additional uncertainties and challenges to this approach (Ghosh et al., 2013; Valea et al., 2018; Xu and Kulp, 2019).

Direct incorporation and fusion of a potent CD4+ helper epitope with the target antigen may be a simpler and more effective strategy to enhance the induced humoral immunity. Several important epitopes have been identified in this manner. Incorporation of Pan DR epitope (PADRE), for example, has demonstrated to improve immunogenicity of peptide and protein vaccines in animal studies and it has also been explored in several clinical studies (Alexander et al., 2000; Ghaffari-Nazari et al., 2015; Snook et al., 2019). Identification of additional potent CD4-helper epitopes can create new tools to be used in conjunction with, or as alternative to, these established CD4-helper epitopes as molecular adjuvants to various vaccine antigens.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The disclosed method and compositions may be understood more readily by reference to the following detailed description of particular embodiments and the examples included therein and to the figures and their previous and following description. It is to be understood that the disclosed method and compositions are not limited to specific synthetic methods, specific analytical techniques, or to particular reagents unless otherwise specified, and, as such, may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting.

It is understood that the disclosed method and compositions are not limited to the particular methodology, protocols, and reagents described as these may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure which will be limited only by the appended claims.

It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an,” and “the” include plural reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a nucleic acid sequence” includes a plurality of nucleotides that are formed, reference to “the nucleic acid sequence” is a reference to one or more nucleic acid sequences and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art, and so forth.

Ranges may be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. When such a range is expressed, also specifically contemplated and considered disclosed is the range from the one particular value and/or to the other particular value unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about,” it will be understood that the particular value forms another, specifically contemplated embodiment that should be considered disclosed unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint, and independently of the other endpoint unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. The term “about” as used herein when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, is meant to encompass variations of ±20%, ±10%, ±5%, ±1%, ±0.5%, or ±0.1% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed methods.

As used herein, the terms “activate,” “stimulate,” “enhance” “increase” and/or “induce” (and like terms) are used interchangeably to generally refer to the act of improving or increasing, either directly or indirectly, a concentration, level, function, activity, or behavior relative to the natural, expected, or average, or relative to a control condition. “Activate” in context of an immunotherapy refers to a primary response induced by ligation of a cell surface moiety. For example, in the context of receptors, such stimulation entails the ligation of a receptor and a subsequent signal transduction event. Further, the stimulation event may activate a cell and upregulate or downregulate expression or secretion of a molecule. Thus, indirect or direct ligation of cell surface moieties, even in the absence of a direct signal transduction event, may result in the reorganization of cytoskeletal structures, or in the coalescing of cell surface moieties, each of which could serve to enhance, modify, or alter subsequent cellular responses. As used herein, the terms “activating CD4+ T cells” or “CD4+ T cell activation” refer to a process (e.g., a signaling event) causing or resulting in one or more cellular responses of a CD4+ T cell (CTL), selected from: proliferation, differentiation, cytokine secretion, cytotoxic effector molecule release, cytotoxic activity, and expression of activation markers. As used herein, an “activated CD4+ T cell” refers to a CD4+ T cell that has received an activating signal, and thus demonstrates one or more cellular responses, selected from proliferation, differentiation, cytokine secretion, cytotoxic effector molecule release, cytotoxic activity, and expression of activation markers. Suitable assays to measure CD4+ T cell activation are known in the art and are described herein.

The term “combination therapy” as used herein is meant to refer to administration of one or more therapeutic agents in a sequential manner, that is, wherein each therapeutic agent is administered at a different time, as well as administration of these therapeutic agents, or at least two of the therapeutic agents, in a substantially simultaneous manner. Substantially simultaneous administration can be accomplished, for example, by administering to the subject a single dose having a fixed ratio of each therapeutic agent or in multiple, individual doses for each of the therapeutic agents. For example, one combination of the present disclosure may comprise a pooled sample of one or more nucleic acid molecules comprising one or a plurality of expressible nucleic acid sequences and an adjuvant and/or an anti-viral agent administered at the same or different times. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition of the disclosure can be formulated as a single, co-formulated pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more nucleic acid molecules comprising one or a plurality of expressible nucleic acid sequences and one or more adjuvants and/or one or more anti-viral agents. As another example, a combination of the present disclosure (e.g., DNA or RNA vaccines and anti-viral agent) may be formulated as separate pharmaceutical compositions that can be administered at the same or different time. As used herein, the term “simultaneously” is meant to refer to administration of one or more agents at the same time. For example, in certain embodiments, antiviral vaccine or immunogenic composition and antiviral agents are administered simultaneously). Simultaneously includes administration contemporaneously or immediately sequentially, that is during the same period of time. In certain embodiments, the one or more agents are administered simultaneously in the same hour, or simultaneously in the same day. Sequential or substantially simultaneous administration of each therapeutic agent can be effected by any appropriate route including, but not limited to, oral routes, intravenous routes, sub-cutaneous routes, intramuscular routes, direct absorption through mucous membrane tissues (e.g., nasal, mouth, vaginal, and rectal), and ocular routes (e.g., intravitreal, intraocular, etc.). The therapeutic agents can be administered by the same route or by different routes. For example, one component of a particular combination may be administered by intravenous injection while the other component(s) of the combination may be administered intramuscularly only. The components may be administered in any therapeutically effective sequence. A “combination” embraces groups of compounds or non-small chemical compound therapies useful as part of a combination therapy. In some embodiments, the therapeutic agent is an anti-retroviral therapy, (such as one or a combination of efavirenz, lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) or anti-flu therapy (such as TamiFlu®). In some embodiments, the therapeutic agent is one or a combiantion of: abacavir/dolutegravir/lamivudine (Triumeq), dolutegravir/rilpivirine (Juluca), elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Stribild), elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (Genvoya), efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Atripla), emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Complera), emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir alafenamide (Odefsey), bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide (Biktarvy). In some embodiments, the therapeutic agent is one or a combination of a reverse transcrioptase inhibitor of a retrovirus such as efavirenz (Sustiva), etravirine (Intelence), nevirapine (Viramune), nevirapine extended-release (Viramune XR), rilpivirine (Edurant), delavirdine mesylate (Rescriptor). In some embodiments, the therapeutic agent is one or a combination of a protease inhibitor of a retrovirus, such as: atazanavir/cobicistat (Evotaz), darunavir/cobicistat (Prezcobix), lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra), ritonavir (Norvir), atazanavir (Reyataz), darunavir (Prezista), fosamprenavir (Lexiva), tipranavir (Aptivus).

As used herein, “expression” refers to the process by which a polynucleotide is transcribed from a DNA template (such as into and mRNA or other RNA transcript) and/or the process by which a transcribed mRNA (or administered mRNA) is translated into peptides, polypeptides, or proteins. Transcripts and encoded polypeptides may be collectively referred to as “gene product.” If the polynucleotide is derived from genomic DNA, expression may include splicing of the mRNA in a eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the at least one expressible nucleic acid sequence comprises only DNA nucleotides, RNA nucleotides or comprises both RNA and DNA nucleotides. In some embodiments, the at least one expressible nucleic acid consist of RNA. In some embodiments, the at least one expressible nucleic acid consist of DNA.

The terms “functional fragment” means any portion of a polypeptide or nucleic acid sequence from which the respective full-length polypeptide or nucleic acid relates that is of a sufficient length and has a sufficient structure to confer a biological affect that is at least similar or substantially similar to the full-length polypeptide or nucleic acid upon which the fragment is based. In some embodiments, a functional fragment is a portion of a full-length or wild-type nucleic acid sequence that encodes any one of the nucleic acid sequences disclosed herein, and said portion encodes a polypeptide of a certain length and/or structure that is less than full-length but encodes a domain that still biologically functional as compared to the full-length or wild-type protein. In some embodiments, the functional fragment may have a reduced biological activity, about equivalent biological activity, or an enhanced biological activity as compared to the wild-type or full-length polypeptide sequence upon which the fragment is based (such wild-type or full length sequences “reference sequences” or each individually a “reference sequence”). In some embodiments, the functional fragment is derived from the sequence of an organism, such as a human. In such embodiments, the functional fragment may retain about 99%, 98%, 97%, 96%, 95%, 94%, 93%, 92%, 91%, or 90% sequence identity to the wild-type human sequence upon which the sequence is derived. In some embodiments, the functional fragment may retain about 85%, 80%, 75%, 70%, 65%, or 60% sequence identity to the wild-type sequence upon which the sequence is derived.

By “fragment” is meant a portion of a polypeptide or nucleic acid molecule. This portion contains, preferably, at least about 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, or about 90% of the entire length of the reference nucleic acid molecule or polypeptide. A fragment may contain about 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000 or more nucleotides or amino acids.

“Optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event, circumstance, or material may or may not occur or be present, and that the description includes instances where the event, circumstance, or material occurs or is present and instances where it does not occur or is not present.

The phrase “and/or,” as used herein in the specification and in the claims, should be understood to mean “either or both” of the elements so conjoined, i.e., elements that are conjunctively present in some cases and disjunctively present in other cases. Other elements may optionally be present other than the elements specifically identified by the “and/or” clause, whether related or unrelated to those elements specifically identified unless clearly indicated to the contrary. Thus, as a non-limiting example, a reference to “A and/or B,” when used in conjunction with open-ended language such as “comprising” can refer, in some embodiments, to A without B (optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiments, to B without A (optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiments, to both A and B (optionally including other elements); etc.

As used herein in the specification and in the claims, “or” should he understood to have the same meaning as “and/or” as defined above. For example, when separating items in a list, “or” or “and/or” shall be interpreted as being inclusive, i.e., the inclusion of at least one, but also including more than one, of a number or list of elements, and, optionally, additional unlisted items. Only terms clearly indicated to the contrary, such as “only one of” or “exactly one of,” or, when used in the claims, “consisting of,” will refer to the inclusion of exactly one element of a number or list of elements. In general, the term “or” as used herein shall only be interpreted as indicating exclusive alternatives (i.e. “one or the other but not both”) when preceded by terms of exclusivity, “either,” “one of,” “only one of,” or “exactly one of” “Consisting essentially of,” when used in the claims, shall have its ordinary meaning as used in the field of patent law.

As used herein an “antigen” is meant to refer to any substance that elicits an immune response.

As used herein, the term “electroporation,” “electro-permeabilization,” or “electro-kinetic enhancement” (“EP”), are used interchangeably and are meant to refer to the use of a transmembrane electric field pulse to induce microscopic pathways (pores) in a bio-membrane; their presence allows biomolecules such as plasmids, oligonucleotides, siRNA, drugs, ions, and/or water to pass from one side of the cellular membrane to the other. In some of the disclosed methods of treatment or prevention, the method comprises a step of electroporation of a subject's tissue for a sufficient time and with a sufficient electrical field capable of inducing uptake of the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein into the antigen-presenting cells.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient,” “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” or “pharmaceutically acceptable diluent” as used herein is meant to refer to an excipient, carrier or diluent that can be administered to a subject, together with an agent or the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein, and which is inert or fails to eliminate the pharmacological activity of the active agent of the pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier does fails to destroy or is incapable of eliminating the pharmacological activity of an active agent/vaccine and is nontoxic when administered in doses sufficient to deliver a therapeutic amount of the active agent. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” of nucleic acids as used herein may be an acid or base salt that is generally considered in the art to be suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings or animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication. Such salts include mineral and organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines, as well as alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids.

Similarly, pharmaceutically acceptable cations include, but are not limited to sodium, potassium, calcium, aluminum, lithium and ammonium. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure and the knowledge in the art that further pharmaceutically acceptable salts for the pooled viral specific antigens or polynucleotides provided herein, including those listed by Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., p. 1418 (1985). In general, a pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base salt can be synthesized from a parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by any conventional chemical method. Briefly, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in an appropriate solvent.

As used herein, the terms “prevent,” “preventing,” “prevention,” “prophylactic treatment,” and the like, are meant to refer to reducing the probability of developing a disease or condition in a subject, who does not have, but is at risk of or susceptible to developing a disease or condition.

As used herein, the term “purified” means that the polynucleotide or polypeptide or fragment, variant, or derivative thereof is substantially free of other biological material with which it is naturally associated, or free from other biological materials derived, e.g., from a recombinant host cell that has been genetically engineered to express the polypeptide of the present disclosure. That is, e.g., a purified polypeptide of the present disclosure is a polypeptide that is at least from about 70 to 100% pure, i.e., the polypeptide is present in a composition wherein the polypeptide constitutes from about 70 to about 100% by weight of the total composition. In some embodiments, the purified polypeptide of the present disclosure is from about 75% to about 99% by weight pure, from about 80% to about 99% by weight pure, from about 90 to about 99% by weight pure, or from about 95% to about 99% by weight pure.

The terms “subject,” “individual,” and “patient” are used interchangeably herein to refer to a vertebrate, preferably a mammal, more preferably a human. Mammals include, but are not limited to, murine, simians, humans, farm animals, cows, pigs, goats, sheep, horses, dogs, sport animals, and pets. Tissues, cells and their progeny obtained in vivo or cultured in vitro are also encompassed by the definition of the term “subject.” The term “subject” is also used throughout the specification in some embodiments to describe an animal from which a cell sample is taken or an animal to which a disclosed cell or nucleic acid sequences have been administered. In some embodiment, the subject is a human. For treatment of those conditions which are specific for a specific subject, such as a human being, the term “patient” may be interchangeably used. In some instances in the description of the present disclosure, the term “patient” will refer to human patients suffering from a particular disease or disorder. In some embodiments, the subject may be a non-human animal. The term “mammal” encompasses both humans and non-humans and includes but is not limited to humans, non-human primates, canines, felines, murine, bovines, equines, caprine, and porcines.

The term “therapeutic effect” as used herein is meant to refer to some extent of relief of one or more of the symptoms of a disorder (e.g., SARS-CoV-2 infection) or its associated pathology. A “therapeutically effective amount” as used herein is meant to refer to an amount of an agent which is effective, upon single or multiple dose administration (such as a first, second and/or third booster) to the cell or subject, in prolonging the survivability of the patient with such a disorder, reducing one or more signs or symptoms of the disorder, preventing or delaying, and the like beyond that expected in the absence of such treatment. A “therapeutically effective amount” is intended to qualify the amount required to achieve a therapeutic effect. A physician or veterinarian having ordinary skill in the art can readily determine and prescribe the “therapeutically effective amount” (e.g., ED50) of the pharmaceutical composition required. For example, the physician or veterinarian could start doses of the compounds of the present disclosure employed in a pharmaceutical composition at levels lower than that required in order to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved.

The terms “treat,” “treated,” “treating,” “treatment,” and the like as used herein are meant to refer to reducing or ameliorating a disorder and/or symptoms associated therewith (e.g., a viral infection). “Treating” can refer to administration of the DNA and/or RNA vaccines described herein to a subject after the onset, or suspected onset, of a viral infection. “Treating” includes the concepts of “alleviating,” which refers to lessening the frequency of occurrence or recurrence, or the severity, of any symptoms or other ill effects related to a virus and/or the side effects associated with viral therapy. The term “treating” also encompasses the concept of “managing” which refers to reducing the severity of a particular disease or disorder in a patient or delaying its recurrence, e.g., lengthening the period of remission in a patient who had suffered from the disease. It is appreciated that, although not precluded, treating a disorder or condition does not require that the disorder, condition, or symptoms associated therewith be completely eliminated.

For any therapeutic agent described herein the therapeutically effective amount may be initially determined from preliminary in vitro studies and/or animal models. A therapeutically effective dose may also be determined from human data. The applied dose can be adjusted based on the relative bioavailability and potency of the administered agent. Adjusting the dose to achieve maximal efficacy based on the methods described above and other well-known methods is within the capabilities of the ordinarily skilled artisan. General principles for determining therapeutic effectiveness, which may be found in Chapter 1 of Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 10th Edition, McGraw-Hill (New York) (2001), incorporated herein by reference, are summarized below. Pharmacokinetic principles provide a basis for modifying a dosage regimen to obtain a desired degree of therapeutic efficacy with a minimum of unacceptable adverse effects. In situations where the drug's plasma concentration can be measured and related to the therapeutic window, additional guidance for dosage modification can be obtained. Drug products are considered to be pharmaceutical equivalents if they contain the same active ingredients and are identical in strength or concentration, dosage form, and route of administration. Two pharmaceutically equivalent drug products are considered to be bioequivalent when the rates and extents of bioavailability of the active ingredient in the two products are not significantly different under suitable test conditions.

The terms “polynucleotide,” “oligonucleotide” and “nucleic acid” are used interchangeably throughout and include DNA molecules (e.g., cDNA or genomic DNA), RNA molecules (e.g., mRNA), analogs of the DNA or RNA generated using nucleotide analogs (e.g., peptide nucleic acids and non-naturally occurring nucleotide analogs), and hybrids thereof. The nucleic acid molecule can be single-stranded or double-stranded. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecules of the disclosure comprise a contiguous open reading frame encoding an antibody, or a fragment thereof, as described herein. “Nucleic acid” or “oligonucleotide” or “polynucleotide” as used herein may mean at least two nucleotides covalently linked together. The depiction of a single strand also defines the sequence of the complementary strand. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses the complementary strand of a depicted single strand. Many variants of a nucleic acid may be used for the same purpose as a given nucleic acid. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses substantially identical nucleic acids and complements thereof. A single strand provides a probe that may hybridize to a target sequence under stringent hybridization conditions. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses a probe that hybridizes under stringent hybridization conditions. Nucleic acids may be single stranded or double stranded, or may contain portions of both double stranded and single stranded sequence. The nucleic acid may be DNA, both genomic and cDNA, RNA, or a hybrid, where the nucleic acid may contain combinations of deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleotides, and combinations of bases including uracil, adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, inosine, xanthine hypoxanthine, isocytosine and isoguanine. Nucleic acids may be obtained by chemical synthesis methods or by recombinant methods. A nucleic acid will generally contain phosphodiester bonds, although nucleic acid analogs maybe included that may have at least one different linkage, e.g., phosphoramidate, phosphorothioate, phosphorodithioate, or O-methylphosphoroamidite linkages and peptide nucleic acid backbones and linkages. Other analog nucleic acids include those with positive backbones; non-ionic backbones, and non-ribose backbones, including those described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,235,033 and 5,034,506, which are incorporated by reference in their entireties.

Nucleic acids containing one or more non-naturally occurring or modified nucleotides are also included within one definition of nucleic acids. The modified nucleotide analog may he located for example at the 5′-end and/or the 3′-end of the nucleic acid molecule. Representative examples of nucleotide analogs may be selected from sugar- or backbone-modified ribonucleotides. It should be noted, however, that also nucleobase-modified ribonucleotides, i.e. ribonucleotides, containing a non-naturally occurring nucleobase instead of a naturally occurring nucleobase such as uridines or cytidines modified at the 5-position, e.g. 5-(2-amino)propyl uridine, 5-bromo uridine; adenosines and guanosines modified at the 8-position, e.g. 8-bromo guanosine; deaza nucleotides, e.g. 7-deaza-adenosine; 0- and N-alkylated nucleotides, e.g. N6-methyl adenosine are suitable. The 2′-OH-group may be replaced by a group selected from H, OR, R, halo, SH, SR, NH₂, NHR, N₂or CN, wherein R is C₁-C₆alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl and halo is F, Cl, Br or I. Modified nucleotides also include nucleotides conjugated with cholesterol through, e.g., a hydroxyprolinol linkage as described in Krutzfeldt et al., Nature (Oct. 30, 2005), Soutschek et al., Nature 432:173-178 (2004), and U.S. Patent Publication No. 20050107325, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. Modified nucleotides and nucleic acids may also include locked nucleic acids (LNA), as described in U.S. Patent No. 20020115080, which is incorporated herein by reference. Additional modified nucleotides and nucleic acids are described in U.S. Patent Publication No. 20050182005, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Modifications of the ribose-phosphate backbone may be done for a variety of reasons, e.g., to increase the stability and half-life of such molecules in physiological environments, to enhance diffusion across cell membranes, or as probes on a biochip. Mixtures of naturally occurring nucleic acids and analogs may be made; alternatively, mixtures of different nucleic acid analogs, and mixtures of naturally occurring nucleic acids and analogs may be made. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is in the form of DNA. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid is in the form of RNA with a sequence that encodes the polypeptide sequences disclosed herein and, in some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is an RNA/DNA hybrid molecule that encodes any one or plurality of polypeptide sequences disclosed herein.

As used herein, the term “nucleic acid molecule” is a molecule that comprises one or more nucleotide sequences that encode one or more proteins. In some embodiments, a nucleic acid molecule comprises initiation and termination signals operably linked to regulatory elements including a promoter and polyadenylation signal capable of directing expression in the cells of the individual to whom the nucleic acid molecule is administered. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecule also includes a plasmid containing one or more nucleotide sequences that encode one or a plurality of viral antigens. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a first, second, third or more nucleic acid molecule, each of which encoding one or a plurality of viral antigens and at least one of each plasmid comprising one or more of the compositions disclosed herein.

The terms “polypeptide,” “peptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein to refer to polymers of amino acids of any length. The polymer may be linear or branched, it may comprise modified amino acids, and it may be interrupted by non-natural amino acids or chemical groups that are not amino acids. The terms also encompass an amino acid polymer that has been modified; for example, disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, or any other manipulation, such as conjugation with a labeling component. As used herein the term “amino acid” includes natural and/or unnatural or synthetic amino acids, including glycine and both the D or L optical isomers, and amino acid analogs and peptidomimetics.

The “percent identity” or “percent homology” of two polynucleotide or two polypeptide sequences is determined by comparing the sequences using the GAP computer program (a part of the GCG Wisconsin Package, version 10.3 (Accelrys, San Diego, Calif.)) using its default parameters. “Identical” or “identity” as used herein in the context of two or more nucleic acids or amino acid sequences, may mean that the sequences have a specified percentage of residues that are the same over a specified region. The percentage may be calculated by optimally aligning the two sequences, comparing the two sequences over the specified region, determining the number of positions at which the identical residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the specified region, and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. In cases where the two sequences are of different lengths or the alignment produces one or more staggered ends and the specified region of comparison includes only a single sequence, the residues of single sequence are included in the denominator but not the numerator of the calculation. When comparing DNA and RNA, thymine (T) and uracil (U) may be considered equivalent. Identity may he performed manually or by using a computer sequence algorithm such as BLAST or BLAST 2.0. Briefly, the BLAST algorithm, which stands for Basic Local Alignment Search Tool is suitable for determining sequence similarity. Software for performing BLAST analyses is publicly available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). This algorithm involves first identifying high scoring sequence pair (HSPs) by identifying short words of length Win the query sequence that either match or satisfy some positive-valued threshold score T when aligned with a word of the same length in a database sequence. T is referred to as the neighborhood word score threshold (Altschul et al., supra). These initial neighborhood word hits act as seeds for initiating searches to find HSPs containing them. The word hits are extended in both directions along each sequence for as far as the cumulative alignment score can be increased. Extension for the word hits in each direction are halted when: 1) the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; 2) the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or 3) the end of either sequence is reached. The Blast algorithm parameters W, T and X determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The Blast program uses as defaults a word length (W) of 11, the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (see Henikoff et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1992, 89, 10915-10919, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) alignments (B) of 50, expectation (E) of 10, M=5, N=4, and a comparison of both strands. The BLAST algorithm (Karlin et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1993, 90, 5873-5787, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) and Gapped BLAST perform a statistical analysis of the similarity between two sequences. One measure of similarity provided by the BLAST algorithm is the smallest sum probability (P(N)), which provides an indication of the probability by which a match between two nucleotide sequences would occur by chance. For example, a nucleic acid is considered similar to another if the smallest sum probability in comparison of the test nucleic acid to the other nucleic acid is less than about 1, less than about 0.1, less than about 0.01, and less than about 0.001. Two single-stranded polynucleotides are “the complement” of each other if their sequences can be aligned in an anti-parallel orientation such that every nucleotide in one polynucleotide is opposite its complementary nucleotide in the other polynucleotide, without the introduction of gaps, and without unpaired nucleotides at the 5′ or the 3′ end of either sequence. A polynucleotide is “complementary” to another polynucleotide if the two polynucleotides can hybridize to one another under moderately stringent conditions. Thus, a polynucleotide can be complementary to another polynucleotide without being its complement.

The term “hybridization” or “hybridizes” as used herein refers to the formation of a duplex between nucleotide sequences that are sufficiently complementary to form duplexes via Watson-Crick base pairing. Two nucleotide sequences are “complementary” to one another when those molecules share base pair organization homology. “Complementary” nucleotide sequences will combine with specificity to form a stable duplex under appropriate hybridization conditions. For instance, two sequences are complementary when a section of a first sequence can bind to a section of a second sequence in an anti-parallel sense wherein the 3′-end of each sequence binds to the 5′-end of the other sequence and each A, T(U), G and C of one sequence is then aligned with a T(U), A, C and G, respectively, of the other sequence. RNA sequences can also include complementary G=U or U=G base pairs. Thus, two sequences need not have perfect homology to be “complementary.” Usually two sequences are sufficiently complementary when at least about 90% (preferably at least about 95%) of the nucleotides share base pair organization over a defined length of the molecule.

By “substantially identical” is meant nucleic acid molecule (or polypeptide) exhibiting at least about 50% identity to a reference amino acid sequence (for example, any one of the amino acid sequences described herein) or nucleic acid sequence (for example, any one of the nucleic acid sequences described herein). In some embodiments, such a sequence is at least about 60%, 70%, 80% or 85%, 90%, 95% or even 99% identical at the amino acid level or nucleic acid to the sequence used for comparison.

A nucleotide sequence is “operably linked” to a regulatory sequence if the regulatory sequence affects the expression (e.g., the level, timing, or location of expression) of the nucleotide sequence. A “regulatory sequence” is a nucleic acid that affects the expression (e.g., the level, timing, or location of expression) of a nucleic acid to which it is operably linked. The regulatory sequence can, for example, exert its effects directly on the regulated nucleic acid, or through the action of one or more other molecules (e.g., polypeptides that bind to the regulatory sequence and/or the nucleic acid). Examples of regulatory sequences include promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements (e.g., polyadenylation signals). Further examples of regulatory sequences are described in, for example, Goeddel, 1990, Gene Expression Technology: Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. and Baron et al., 1995, Nucleic Acids Res. 23:3605-06.

A “vector” is a nucleic acid that can be used to introduce another nucleic acid linked to it into a cell. One type of vector is a “plasmid,” which refers to a linear or circular double stranded DNA molecule into which additional nucleic acid segments can be ligated. Another type of vector is a viral vector (e.g., replication defective retroviruses, adenoviruses and adeno-associated viruses), comprising additional, exogenous DNA, RNA or hybrid DNA or RNA molecules that can be introduced into the viral genome. Certain vectors are capable of autonomous replication in a host cell into which they are introduced (e.g., bacterial vectors comprising a bacterial origin of replication and episomal mammalian vectors). Other vectors (e.g., non-episomal mammalian vectors) are integrated into the genome of a host cell upon introduction into the host cell, and thereby are replicated along with the host genome. An “expression vector” is a type of vector that can direct the expression of a chosen polynucleotide. The disclosure relates to any one or plurality of vectors that comprise nucleic acid sequences encoding any one or plurality of amino acid sequence disclosed herein.

The term “vaccine” as used herein is meant to refer to a composition for generating immunity for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of diseases (e.g., viral infections). Accordingly, vaccines are medicaments which comprise antigens in protein and/or nucleic acid forms and are in animals for generating specific defense and protective substance by vaccination. A “vaccine composition” or a “DNA vaccine composition” can include a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, carrier or diluent. A “DNA vaccine composition” as used herein can comprise a DNA vaccine, a RNA vaccine or a combination thereof.

“Variants” are intended to mean substantially similar sequences. For nucleic acid molecules, a variant comprises a nucleic acid molecule having deletions (i.e., truncations) at the 5′ and/or 3′ end; deletion and/or addition of one or more nucleotides at one or more internal sites in the native polynucleotide; and/or substitution of one or more nucleotides at one or more sites in the native polynucleotide. As used herein, a “native” nucleic acid molecule or polypeptide comprises a naturally occurring or endogenous nucleotide sequence or amino acid sequence, respectively. For nucleic acid molecules, conservative variants include those sequences that, because of the degeneracy of the genetic code, encode the amino acid sequence of one of the polypeptides of the disclosure. Variant nucleic acid molecules also include synthetically derived nucleic acid molecules, such as those generated, for example, by using site-directed mutagenesis but which still encode a protein of the disclosure. Generally, variants of a particular nucleic acid molecule of the disclosure will have at least about 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or more sequence identity to that particular polynucleotide as determined by sequence alignment programs and parameters as described elsewhere herein. Variants of a particular nucleic acid molecule of the disclosure (i.e., the reference DNA sequence) can also be evaluated by comparison of the percent sequence identity between the polypeptide encoded by a variant nucleic acid molecule and the polypeptide encoded by the reference nucleic acid molecule. Percent sequence identity between any two polypeptides can be calculated using sequence alignment programs and parameters described elsewhere herein. Where any given pair of nucleic acid molecule of the disclosure is evaluated by comparison of the percent sequence identity shared by the two polypeptides that they encode, the percent sequence identity between the two encoded polypeptides is at least about 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or more sequence identity. In some embodiments, the term “variant” protein is intended to mean a protein derived from the native protein by deletion (so-called truncation) of one or more amino acids at the N-terminal and/or C-terminal end of the native protein; deletion and/or addition of one or more amino acids at one or more internal sites in the native protein; or substitution of one or more amino acids at one or more sites in the native protein. Variant proteins encompassed by the present disclosure are biologically active, that is they continue to possess the desired biological activity of the native protein as described herein. Such variants may result from, for example, genetic polymorphism or from human manipulation. Biologically active variants of a protein of the disclosure will have at least about 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or more sequence identity to the amino acid sequence for the native protein as determined by sequence alignment programs and parameters described elsewhere herein. A biologically active variant of a protein of the disclosure may differ from that protein by as few as 1-15 amino acid residues, as few as 1-10, such as 6-10, as few as 5, as few as 4, 3, 2, or even 1 amino acid residue. The proteins or polypeptides of the disclosure may be altered in various ways including amino acid substitutions, deletions, truncations, and insertions. Methods for such manipulations are generally known in the art. For example, amino acid sequence variants and fragments of the proteins can be prepared by mutations in the nucleic acid sequence that encode the amino acid sequence recombinantly. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecules or the nucleic acid sequences comprise conservative mutations of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more nucleotides.

Finally, it should be understood that all of the individual values and sub-ranges of values contained within an explicitly disclosed range are also specifically contemplated and should be considered disclosed unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. The foregoing applies regardless of whether in particular cases some or all of these embodiments are explicitly disclosed.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by one of skill in the art to which the disclosed method and compositions belong. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present method and compositions, the particularly useful methods, devices, and materials are as described.

The discussion of references states what their authors assert, and applicants reserve the right to challenge the accuracy and pertinency of the cited documents. It will be clearly understood that, although a number of publications are referred to herein, such reference does not constitute an admission that any of these documents forms part of the common general knowledge in the art.

Throughout the description and claims of this specification, the word “comprise” and variations of the word, such as “comprising” and “comprises,” means “including but not limited to,” and is not intended to exclude, for example, other additives, components, integers or steps. In particular, in methods stated as comprising one or more steps or operations it is specifically contemplated that each step comprises what is listed (unless that step includes a limiting term such as “consisting of”), meaning that each step is not intended to exclude, for example, other additives, components, integers or steps that are not listed in the step.

m. Identical

“Identical” or “identity” as used herein in the context of two or more nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences, may mean that the sequences have a specified percentage of residues that are the same over a specified region. The percentage may be calculated by optimally aligning the two sequences, comparing the two sequences over the specified region, determining the number of positions at which the identical residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the specified region, and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. In cases where the two sequences are of different lengths or the alignment produces one or more staggered ends and the specified region of comparison includes only a single sequence, the residues of single sequence are included in the denominator but not the numerator of the calculation. When comparing DNA and RNA, thymine (T) and uracil (U) may be considered equivalent. Identity may be performed manually or by using a computer sequence algorithm such as BLAST or BLAST 2.0.

q. Nucleic Acid

“Nucleic acid” or “oligonucleotide” or “polynucleotide” as used herein may mean at least two nucleotides covalently linked together. The depiction of a single strand also defines the sequence of the complementary strand. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses the complementary strand of a depicted single strand. Many variants of a nucleic acid may be used for the same purpose as a given nucleic acid. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses substantially identical nucleic acids and complements thereof. A single strand provides a probe that may hybridize to a target sequence under stringent hybridization conditions. Thus, a nucleic acid also encompasses a probe that hybridizes under stringent hybridization conditions.

Nucleic acids may be single stranded or double stranded, or may contain portions of both double stranded and single stranded sequence. The nucleic acid may be DNA, both genomic and cDNA, RNA, or a hybrid, where the nucleic acid may contain combinations of deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleotides, and combinations of bases including uracil, adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, inosine, xanthine hypoxanthine, isocytosine and isoguanine. Nucleic acids may be obtained by chemical synthesis methods or by recombinant methods.

r. Operably Linked

“Operably linked” as used herein when referring to a gene operably linked to a promoter refers to the linkage of the two components such that expression of the gene is under the control of a promoter with which it is spatially connected. A promoter may be positioned 5′ (upstream) or 3′ (downstream) of a gene under its control. The distance between the promoter and a gene may be approximately the same as the distance between that promoter and the gene it controls in the gene from which the promoter is derived. As is known in the art, variation in this distance may be accommodated without loss of promoter function. When referring to a signal peptide operable linked to a protein, the term refers to the protein having the signal peptide incorporated as part of the protein in a manner that it can function as a signal peptide. When referring to coding sequence that encodes a signal peptide operable linked to coding sequence that encodes a protein, the term refers to the coding sequences arranged such that the translation of the coding sequence produces a protein having the signal peptide incorporated as part of the protein in a manner that it can function as a signal peptide

A promoter may comprise one or more specific transcriptional regulatory sequences to further enhance expression and/or to alter the spatial expression and/or temporal expression of same. A promoter may also comprise distal enhancer or repressor elements, which can be located as much as several thousand base pairs from the start site of transcription. A promoter may be derived from sources including viral, bacterial, fungal, plants, insects, and animals. A promoter may regulate the expression of a gene component constitutively, or differentially with respect to cell, the tissue or organ in which expression occurs or, with respect to the developmental stage at which expression occurs, or in response to external stimuli such as physiological stresses, pathogens, metal ions, or inducing agents. Representative examples of promoters include the bacteriophage T7 promoter, bacteriophage T3 promoter, SP6 promoter, lac operator-promoter, tac promoter, SV40 late promoter, SV40 early promoter, RSV-LTR promoter, CMV IE promoter, SV40 early promoter or SV40 late promoter and the CMV IE promoter.

t. Stringent Hybridization Conditions

“Stringent hybridization conditions” as used herein may mean conditions under which a first nucleic acid sequence (e.g., probe) will hybridize to a second nucleic acid sequence (e.g., target), such as in a complex mixture of nucleic acids. Stringent conditions are sequence-dependent and will be different in different circumstances. Stringent conditions may be selected to be about 5-10° C. lower than the thermal melting point (T_m) for the specific sequence at a defined ionic strength pH. The T_mmay be the temperature (under defined ionic strength, pH, and nucleic concentration) at which 50% of the probes complementary to the target hybridize to the target sequence at equilibrium (as the target sequences are present in excess, at T_m, 50% of the probes are occupied at equilibrium). Stringent conditions may be those in which the salt concentration is less than about 1.0 M sodium ion, such as about 0.01-1.0 M sodium ion concentration (or other salts) at pH 7.0 to 8.3 and the temperature is at least about 30° C. for short probes (e.g., about 10-50 nucleotides) and at least about 60° C. for long probes (e.g., greater than about 50 nucleotides). Stringent conditions may also be achieved with the addition of destabilizing agents such as formamide. For selective or specific hybridization, a positive signal may be at least 2 to 10 times background hybridization. Exemplary stringent hybridization conditions include the following: 50%>formamide, 5×SSC, and 1% SDS, incubating at 42° C., or, 5×SSC, 1% SDS, incubating at 65° C., with wash in 0.2×SSC, and 0.1% SDS at 65° C.

u. Substantially Complementary

“Substantially complementary” as used herein may mean that a first sequence is at least 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 98% or 99% identical to the complement of a second sequence over a region of 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100 or more nucleotides or amino acids, or that the two sequences hybridize under stringent hybridization conditions.

v. Substantially Identical

“Substantially identical” as used herein may mean that a first and second sequence are at least 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 98% or 99% identical over a region of 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100 or more nucleotides or amino acids, or with respect to nucleic acids, if the first sequence is substantially complementary to the complement of the second sequence.

w. Target Protein

“Target protein” as used herein is meant to refer to peptides and protein which are part of vaccines or which are encoded by gene constructs of DNA vaccines that act as target proteins for an immune response. The terms “target protein” and “immunogen” are used interchangeably and refer to a protein against which an immune response can be elicited. The target protein is an immunogenic protein that shares at least an epitope with a protein from the pathogen or undesirable cell-type such as a cancer cell or a cell involved in autoimmune disease against which an immune response is desired. The immune response directed against the target protein will protect the individual against and/or treat the individual for the specific infection or disease with which the target protein is associated

x. Variant

“Variant” used herein with respect to a nucleic acid may mean (i) a portion or fragment of a referenced nucleotide sequence; (ii) the complement of a referenced nucleotide sequence or portion thereof; (iii) a nucleic acid that is substantially identical to a referenced nucleic acid or the complement thereof; or (iv) a nucleic acid that hybridizes under stringent conditions to the referenced nucleic acid, complement thereof, or a sequences substantially identical thereto.

“Variant” with respect to a peptide or polypeptide that differs in amino acid sequence by the insertion, deletion, or conservative substitution of amino acids, but retain at least one biological activity. Variant may also mean a protein with an amino acid sequence that is substantially identical to a referenced protein with an amino acid sequence that retains at least one biological activity. A conservative substitution of an amino acid, i.e., replacing an amino acid with a different amino acid of similar properties (e.g., hydrophilicity, degree and distribution of charged regions) is recognized in the art as typically involving a minor change. These minor changes can be identified, in part, by considering the hydropathic index of amino acids, as understood in the art. Kyte et al., J. Mol. Biol. 157:105-132 (1982). The hydropathic index of an amino acid is based on a consideration of its hydrophobicity and charge. It is known in the art that amino acids of similar hydropathic indexes can be substituted and still retain protein function. In one aspect, amino acids having hydropathic indexes of 2 are substituted. The hydrophilicity of amino acids can also be used to reveal substitutions that would result in proteins retaining biological function. A consideration of the hydrophilicity of amino acids in the context of a peptide permits calculation of the greatest local average hydrophilicity of that peptide, a useful measure that has been reported to correlate well with antigenicity and immunogenicity. U.S. Pat. No. 4,554,101, incorporated fully herein by reference.

Substitution of amino acids having similar hydrophilicity values can result in peptides retaining biological activity, for example immunogenicity, as is understood in the art. Substitutions may be performed with amino acids having hydrophilicity values within ±2 of each other. Both the hydrophobicity index and the hydrophilicity value of amino acids are influenced by the particular side chain of that amino acid. Consistent with that observation, amino acid substitutions that are compatible with biological function are understood to depend on the relative similarity of the amino acids, and particularly the side chains of those amino acids, as revealed by the hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, charge, size, and other properties

y. Vector

“Vector” used herein may mean a nucleic acid sequence containing an origin of replication. A vector may be a plasmid, bacteriophage, bacterial artificial chromosome or yeast artificial chromosome.

4. Vaccine

According to some embodiments of the invention, the delivery of a nucleic acid sequence that encodes the LS-3 epitope or functional fragments thereof, in combination with a nucleic acid sequence that encodes an immunogen to an individual enhances the immune response against the immunogen. When the nucleic acid molecules that encode the immunogens and LS-3 are taken up by cells of the individual, the immunogen and LS-3 are expressed in cells and the proteins are thereby delivered to the individual. Aspects of the invention provide methods of delivering the coding sequences of the immunogen and LS-3 on a single nucleic acid molecule, methods of delivering the coding sequences of the immunogen and LS-3 on different nucleic acid molecules and methods of delivering the coding sequences of the proteins as part of recombinant vaccines and as part of attenuated vaccines.

According to some aspects of the present invention, compositions and methods are provided which prophylactically and/or therapeutically immunize an individual against a pathogen or abnormal, disease-related cells. The vaccine may be any type of vaccine such as, a live attenuated vaccine, a recombinant vaccine or a nucleic acid or DNA vaccine. By delivering nucleic acid molecules that encode an immunogen and LS-3 epitope or functional fragments thereof the immune response induced by the vaccine may be modulated. The LS-3 constructs are particularly useful when delivered in combination with a nucleic acid molecule that encodes an immunogen such as for example as part of a plasmid or the genome of a recombinant vector or attenuated pathogen or cell. The LS-3 constructs may be used in vaccines prophylactically in order to induce a protective immune response in an uninfected or disease free individual. LS-3 constructs are particularly useful when delivered to induce a protective immune response in humans. The LS-3 constructs may be used in vaccines therapeutically in order to induce a immune response in an infected or diseased individual. The LS-3 constructs are particularly useful when delivered to induce a therapeutic immune response in humans. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecules comprising the LS-3 constructs are delivered in a cell free composition. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecules comprising the LS-3 constructs are delivered in a composition free of cancer cells. In some embodiments, comprising the LS-3 constructs are administered free of any other cytokine.

According to the invention, combinations of gene constructs that include one construct that comprises an expressible form of the nucleotide sequence that encodes a target protein and one construct that includes an expressible form of the nucleotide sequence that encodes an immunomodulating protein are provided. Delivery into a living cell of the DNA or RNA molecule(s) that include the combination of gene constructs results in the expression of the DNA or RNA and production of the target protein and one or more immunomodulating proteins. An enhanced immune response against the target protein results.

The present invention may be used to immunize an individual against pathogens such as viruses, prokaryote and pathogenic eukaryotic organisms such as unicellular pathogenic organisms and multicellular parasites. The present invention is particularly useful to immunize an individual or subject against those pathogens which infect cells and which are not encapsulated such as viruses, and prokaryote such as gonorrhea, listeria and shigella. In addition, the present invention is also useful to immunize an individual against protozoan pathogens that include a stage in the life cycle where they are intracellular pathogens. Table 1 provides a listing of some of the viral families and genera for which vaccines according to the present invention can be made. DNA constructs that comprise DNA sequences that encode the peptides that comprise at least an epitope identical or substantially similar to an epitope displayed on a pathogen antigen such as those antigens listed on the tables are useful in vaccines. Moreover, the present invention is also useful to immunize an individual against other pathogens including prokaryotic and eukaryotic protozoan pathogens as well as multicellular parasites such as those listed on Table 2.

Another aspect of the present invention provides a method of conferring a protective immune response against hyperproliferating cells that are characteristic in hyperproliferative diseases and to a method of treating individuals suffering from hyperproliferative diseases. Examples of hyperproliferative diseases include all forms of cancer and psoriasis.

It has been discovered that introduction of a genetic construct that includes a nucleotide sequence which encodes an immunogenic “hyperproliferating cell”-associated protein into the cells of an individual results in the production of those proteins in the vaccinated cells of an individual. To immunize against hyperproliferative diseases, a genetic construct that includes a nucleotide sequence that encodes a protein that is associated with a hyperproliferative disease is administered to an individual. In some embodiments, the hyperproliferative disease is cancer.

In order for the hyperproliferative-associated protein to be an effective immunogenic target, it must be a protein that is produced exclusively or at higher levels in hyperproliferative cells as compared to normal cells. Target antigens include such proteins, fragments thereof and peptides; which comprise at least an epitope found on such proteins. In some cases, a hyperproliferative-associated protein is the product of a mutation of a gene that encodes a protein. The mutated gene encodes a protein that is nearly identical to the normal protein except it has a slightly different amino acid sequence which results in a different epitope not found on the normal protein. Such target proteins include those which are proteins encoded by oncogenes such as myb, myc, fyn, and the translocation gene bcr/abl, ras, src, P53, neu, trk and EGRF. In addition to oncogene products as target antigens, target proteins for anti-cancer treatments and protective regimens include variable regions of antibodies made by B cell lymphomas and variable regions of T cell receptors of T cell lymphomas which, in some embodiments, are also used target antigens for autoimmune disease. Other tumor-associated proteins can be used as target proteins such as proteins that are found at higher levels in tumor cells including the protein recognized by monoclonal antibody 17-IA and folate binding proteins or PSA.

While the present invention may be used to immunize an individual against one or more of several forms of cancer, the present invention is particularly useful to prophylactically immunize an individual who is predisposed to develop a particular cancer or who has had cancer and is therefore susceptible to a relapse. Developments in genetics and technology as well as epidemiology allow for the determination of probability and risk assessment for the development of cancer in individual. Using genetic screening and/or family health histories, it is possible to predict the probability a particular individual has for developing any one of several types of cancer.

Similarly, those individuals who have already developed cancer and who have been treated to remove the cancer or are otherwise in remission are particularly susceptible to relapse and reoccurrence. As part of a treatment regimen, such individuals can be immunized against the cancer that they have been diagnosed as having had in order to combat a recurrence. Thus, once it is known that an individual has had a type of cancer and is at risk of a relapse, they can be immunized in order to prepare their immune system to combat any future appearance of the cancer.

The present invention provides a method of treating individuals suffering from hyperproliferative diseases. In such methods, the introduction of genetic constructs serves as an immunotherapeutic, directing and promoting the immune system of the individual to combat hyperproliferative cells that produce the target protein. In treating or preventing cancer, embodiments which are free of cells are particularly useful.

The present invention provides a method of treating individuals suffering from autoimmune diseases and disorders by conferring a broad based protective immune response against targets that are associated with autoimmunity including cell receptors and cells which produce “self-directed antibodies.

T cell mediated autoimmune diseases include Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis (MS), Sjogren's syndrome, sarcoidosis, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), autoimmune thyroiditis, reactive arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, scleroderma, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, psoriasis, vasculitis, Wegener's granulomatosis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Each of these diseases is characterized by T cell receptors that bind to endogenous antigens and initiate the inflammatory cascade associated with autoimmune diseases.

Vaccination against the variable region of the T cells would elicit an immune response including CTLs to eliminate those T cells.

In RA, several specific variable regions of T cell receptors (TCRs) that are involved in the disease have been characterized. These TCRs include ν β-3, ν β-14, 20 ν β-17 and Va-17. Thus, vaccination with a DNA construct that encodes at least one of these proteins will elicit an immune response that will target T cells involved in RA. See: Howell, M. D., et al., 1991 Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 88:10921-10925; Piliard, X., et al, 1991 Science 253:325-329; Williams, W. V., et al, 1992 J Clin. Invest. 90:326-333; each of which is incorporated herein by reference. In MS, several specific variable regions of TCRs that are involved in the disease have been characterized. These TCRs include ν β-7, and Va-10. Thus, vaccination with a DNA construct that encodes LS-3 epitope and at least one of these proteins will elicit an immune response that will target T cells involved in MS. See: Wucherpfennig, K. W., et al, 1990 Science 248:1016-1019; Oksenberg, J. R., et al, 1990 Nature 345:344-346; each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

In scleroderma, several specific variable regions of TCRs that are involved in the disease have been characterized. These TCRs include ν β-6, ν β-8, V β-14 and Va-16, Va-3C, Va-7, Va-14, Va-15, Va-16, Va-28 and Va-12. Thus, vaccination with a DNA construct that encodes LS-3 epitope and at least one of these proteins will elicit an immune response that will target T cells involved in scleroderma.

In order to treat patients suffering from a T cell mediated autoimmune disease, particularly those for which the variable region of the TCR has yet to be characterized, a synovial biopsy can be performed. Samples of the T cells present can be taken and the variable region of those TCRs identified using standard techniques. Genetic vaccines can be prepared using this information.

B cell mediated autoimmune diseases include Lupus (SLE), Grave's disease, myasthenia gravis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, autoimmune thrombocytopenia, asthma, cryoglobulinemia, primary biliary sclerosis and pernicious anemia. Each of these diseases is characterized by antibodies that bind to endogenous antigens and initiate the inflammatory cascade associated with autoimmune diseases. Vaccination against the variable region of antibodies would elicit an immune response including CTLs to eliminate those B cells that produce the antibody.

In order to treat patients suffering from a B cell mediated autoimmune disease, the variable region of the antibodies involved in the autoimmune activity must be identified. A biopsy can be performed and samples of the antibodies present at a site of inflammation can be taken. The variable region of those antibodies can be identified using standard techniques. Genetic vaccines can be prepared using this information.

In the case of SLE, one antigen is believed to be DNA. Thus, in patients to be immunized against SLE, their sera can be screened for anti-DNA antibodies and a vaccine can be prepared which includes DNA constructs that encode the variable region of such anti-DNA antibodies found in the sera.

Common structural features among the variable regions of both TCRs and antibodies are well known. The DNA sequence encoding a particular TCR or antibody can generally be found following well known methods such as those described in Kabat, et al 1987 Sequence of Proteins of Immunological Interest U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Bethesda Md., which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, a general method for cloning functional variable regions from antibodies can be found in Chaudhary, V. K., et al, 1990 Proc. Natl. Acad Sci. USA 87:1066, which is incorporated herein by reference.

5. Methods of Delivery the Vaccine

Provided herein is a method for delivering a vaccine including the LS-3 epitope to produce immune responses effective against the vaccine immunogens. The method of delivering the vaccine or vaccination may be provided to induce a therapeutic and prophylactic immune response. The vaccination process may generate an immune response against immunogens in a subject. The vaccine may be delivered to an individual to modulate the activity of the mammal's immune system and enhance the immune response. The delivery of the vaccine may be the transfection of sequences encoding the immunogen and the LS-3 epitope on one or more nucleic acid molecules. The coding sequences are expressed in cells and delivered to the surface of the cell upon which the immune system recognized and induces a cellular, humoral, or cellular and humoral response. The delivery of the vaccine may be use to induce or elicit and immune response in mammals against the immunogen by administering to the mammals the vaccine as discussed above. The inclusion of the LS-3 epitope results in a more effective immune response.

Upon delivery of the vaccine and plasmid into the cells of the mammal, the transfected cells will express and secrete immunogens and LS-3 epitope encoded by the plasmids injected from the vaccine. These immunogens will be recognized as foreign by the immune system and antibodies will be made against them. These antibodies will be maintained by the immune system and allow for an effective response to subsequent infections. The presence of the LS-3 epitope encoded by the LS-3 epitope constructs results in a greater immune response.

The vaccine may be administered to a mammal to elicit an immune response in a mammal. The mammal may be human, primate, non-human primate, cow, cattle, sheep, goat, antelope, bison, water buffalo, bison, bovids, deer, hedgehogs, elephants, llama, alpaca, mice, rats, and chicken.

a. Combination Treatments

The LS-3 epitope may be administered in combination with other proteins or genes encoding one or more of alpha-interferon, γ-interferon, platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), TNFa, TNFp, GM-CSF, epidermal growth factor (EGF), cutaneous T cell-attracting chemokine (CTACK), epithelial thymus-expressed chemokine (TECK), mucosae-associated epithelial chemokine (MEC), IL-15 (including IL-15 having the signal sequence deleted and optionally including the signal peptide from IgE), MHC, CD80, CD86, IL-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-18, IL-28, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-Iβ, IL-8, RANTES, L-selectin, P-selectin, E-selectin, CD34, GlyCAM-1, MadCAM-1, LFA-1, VLA-1, Mac-1, p150.95, PECAM, ICAM-1, ICAM-2, ICAM-3, CD2, LFA-3, M-CSF, G-CSF, IL-4, mutant forms of IL-18, CD40, CD40L, vascular growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, IL-7, nerve growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, Fas, TNF receptor, Fit, Apo-1, p55, WSL-1, DR3, TRAMP, Apo-3, AIR, LARD, NGRF, DR4, DR5, KILLER, TRAIL-R2, TRICK2, DR6, Caspase ICE, Fos, c-jun, Sp-1, Ap-1, Ap-2, p38, p65Rel, MyD88, IRAK, TRAF6, IkB, Inactive NIK, SAP K, SAP-1, N K, interferon response genes, NFkB, Bax, TRAIL, TRAILrec, TRAILrecDRC5, TRAIL-R3, TRAIL-R4, RANK, RANK LIGAND, Ox40, Ox40 LIGAND, NKG2D, MICA, MICB, NKG2A, NKG2B, NKG2C, NKG2E, NKG2F, TAP1, TAP2 and functional fragments thereof or combinations thereof.

The vaccine may be administered by different routes including orally, parenterally, sublingually, transdermally, rectally, transmucosally, topically, via inhalation, via buccal administration, intrapleurally, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intranasal intrathecal, and intraarticular or combinations thereof. For veterinary use, the composition may be administered as a suitably acceptable formulation in accordance with normal veterinary practice. The veterinarian can readily determine the dosing regimen and route of administration that is most appropriate for a particular animal. The vaccine may be administered by traditional syringes, needleless injection devices, “microprojectile bombardment gone guns”, or other physical methods such as electroporation (“EP”), “hydrodynamic method”, or ultrasound.

The plasmid of the vaccine may be delivered to the mammal by several well known technologies including DNA injection (also referred to as DNA vaccination) with and without in vivo electroporation, liposome mediated, nanoparticle facilitated, recombinant vectors such as recombinant adenovirus, recombinant adenovirus associated virus and recombinant vaccinia. The consensus antigen may be delivered via DNA injection and along with in vivo electroporation.

6. Immunomodulating Compositions and Methods

In some embodiments, the nucleic acid sequences that encode the LS-3 eptiope are delivered without the addition of nucleic acid sequences that encode an immunogen. In some embodiments, the method is free of delivery of a nucleic acid that encodes an immunogen. In such methods, the nucleic acid sequences that encode the LS-3 epitope subunits are used as immunotherapeutics which, when expressed to produce functional LS-3, impart a desired immunomodulatory effect on the individual. The nucleic acid sequences that encode the LS-3 epitope are provided and delivered as described above except for the exclusion of nucleic acid sequences that encode an immunogen. In such methods, the nucleic acid sequences that encode the LS-3 epitope may used as immunotherapeutics alone or in combination with other immunomodulatory proteins such as those described above in the section entitled combination treatments.

A. Nucleic Acid Compositions

Disclosed are compositions comprising one or plurality of expressible nucleic acid sequences. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is a DNA. In other embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is a RNA. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid is operably linked to one or a plurality of regulatory sequences. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is comprised and forms a part of a nucleic acid molecule, such as a vector or plasmid.

In one aspect, the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure comprises a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a scaffold domain comprising a self-assembling polypeptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a second nucleic acid sequence encoding an antigen domain comprising a viral antigen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The self-assembling polypeptide is a self-assembling peptide that is expressed to envelope the viral antigen. Transformed or transfected cells exposed to such expressible nucleic acid sequences can produce the self-assembling peptide which envelopes the viral antigens, thereby stimulating the viral antigen-specific immune response against the antigen. In some embodiments, the antigen-specific immune response is a therapeutically effective immune response against the virus from which the antigen amino acid sequence is obtained. In some embodiments, the viral antigen encoded by the expressible nucleic acid of the disclosure comprises a coronaviral antigen. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence further comprises a third nucleic acid sequence encoding a leader sequence or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the leader sequence is an IgE or IgG leader sequence. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence further comprises a fourth nucleic acid sequence encoding a linker peptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the fourth nucleic acid sequence is positioned between the first nucleic acid sequence and the second nucleic acid sequence in the 5′ to 3′ orientation. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence comprises a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a scaffold domain comprising a self-assembling polypeptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a second nucleic acid sequence encoding an antigen domain comprising a viral antigen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a third nucleic acid sequence encoding a leader sequence or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

In some embodiments, the leader sequence is an IgE or IgG leader sequence. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence comprises, in a 5′ to 3′ orientation, a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a leader sequence or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a second nucleic acid sequence encoding a viral polypeptide that is a component of a viral trimer, a functional fragment or variant thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the viral polypeptide that is a component of a viral trimer is a monomer of a viral trimer, such that, upon expression, the monomers spontaneously aggregate to form a trimeric viral polypeptide. In some embodiments, the viral trimer encoded by the expressible nucleic acid of the disclosure comprises a coronaviral trimer. In some embodiments, the viral trimer comprises the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, a functional fragment or variant thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Such mutations result in creating glycan sites in the encoded polypeptide so that glycosylation events can be obtained. In some embodiments, such glycan modifications or mutations decrease the bottom reactivity. In some embodiments, such glycan modifications or mutations increase antigen activity.

1. Leader Sequence

The expressible nucleic acid sequence of the present disclosure optionally comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding a leader sequence, a functional fragment or variant thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. A “leader sequence” may from time to time refer to a “signal peptide” and thus, the terms “leader sequence” and “signal peptide” are used interchangeably herein and refer to an amino acid sequence that can be linked at the amino terminus of a protein set forth herein. Signal peptides/leader sequences typically direct localization of a protein. Signal peptides/leader sequences used herein preferably facilitate secretion of the protein from the cell in which it is produced. Signal peptides/leader sequences are often cleaved from the remainder of the protein, often referred to as the mature protein, upon secretion from the cell. Signal peptides/leader sequences, when present, are linked at the N terminus of the protein. The presence of a leader sequence may be required for proper secretion of the viral antigen or trimer encoded by the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure.

A non-limiting example of the leader sequence is the IgE leader sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of MDWTWILFLVAAATRVHS (SEQ ID NO: 1; also named “MD39”) encoded by one of the following nucleic acid sequences:

In some embodiments, the furin cleavage site comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 67, or a functional fragment or variant thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence encodes a polypeptide free of carbohydrate proximate to at least 30 amino acids from the carboxy end of the polypeptide. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence encodes a polypeptide free of carbohydrate proximate to at least 20 amino acids from the carboxy end of the polypeptide.

In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure comprises at least a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a first, a second and/or a third polypeptides, each first, second or third polypeptide comprising a viral antigen. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence encodes one or a plurality of fusion proteins, each fusion protein comprising at least a first, a second, and/or a third polypeptide contiguously linked by a linker sequence. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure comprises at least a first nucleic acid sequence encoding at least one self-assembling polypeptide. In some embodiments, the self-assembling polypeptide is at least one self-assembling component of a nanoparticle or at least one coronaviral monomer, the coronaviral monomer capable of assembling into a coronaviral trimer upon expression in a cell.

In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure comprises a nucleic acid sequence operably linked to a regulatory sequence and encodes a fusion peptide comprising one or a plurality of self-assembling polypeptides, wherein at least one of the self-assembling polypeptides is a self-assembling coronaviral antigen.

In some embodiments, upon administration to a subject a composition comprising the expressible nucleic acid sequence of the disclosure, the expressible nucleic acid sequence is transfected or transduced into an antigen presenting cell. After a plurality of expressible nucleic acid sequences are expressed, the self-assembling polypeptides assemble with into a non-native form of a viral antigen. In some embodiments, the non-native form of a viral antigen comprises a coronaviral trimer exposing an amino acid sequence that is not naturally exposed or free of carbohydrate as compared to its corresponding native form or variants thereof. Expression and presentation of the one or plurality of self-assembling polypeptides elicits an immune response against an epitope. In some embodiments, the epitope comprises a non-native secondary structure of the one or plurality of self-assembling polypeptides. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise a nucleic acid sequence encoding any combination of nucleic acid sequences disclosed herein or variants thereof. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise a viral particle that comprises an expressible nucleic acid sequence encoding any combination of nucleic acid sequences disclosed herein or variants thereof. The component of the self-assembling peptide can be any monomer that, upon expression, self-assembles into a particle comprising 7, 14, 27 or 60 peptides sided particle, each peptide side fused to at least one antigen from the Coronoviridae family. In some embodiments, the composition comprises a particle comprising 7, 14, 27 or 60 peptides sided particle, each peptide side is fused to at least one antigen from the Coronoviridae family, wherein the antigen is positioned in an energetically stable state as compared to the unassociated energy state. In some embodiments, the energetically stable state is identified by association of the peptide to an antibody through surface plasmon resonance (SPR). In some embodiments, the energetically stable state is measured by absorbance units when either a ligand for the antigen or the antigen is immobilized to a surface, and the other binding partner is then passed over the surface as analyte. In some embodiments, the association can be measured through SPR on a BIACORE® system.

A detailed discussion of the technical aspects of the BIACORE® instruments and the phenomenon of SPR may be found in U.S. Pat. No. 5,313,264 (the full disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). In the BIACORE® system, the SPR response values are expressed in resonance units (RU). One RU represents a change of 0.0001° in the angle of minimum reflected light intensity. For an SPR based sensor system like the BIACORE® system, a difference in refractive index between the two guiding fluids of, say, about 100 RU may be convenient, and the fluid interface position may be determined by means of per se conventional sensorgrams.

In some embodiments, it may be preferred to keep the total flow rate constant when introducing the sample flow. In such a case, the flow rates of the two guiding fluids are reduced while maintaining the flow rate ratio between them. Assume, for example, that the flow rate of one guiding fluid is 70 μl/min and the flow rate of the other guiding fluid is 30 μl/min, the total flow rate being 100 μl/min, and that a sample fluid flow of 20 μl/min is introduced between the guiding fluids. To maintain the total fluid flow rate at 100 μl/min, the flow rates of the guiding fluids will have to be reduced to 60 and 20 μl/min, respectively. The position of a sample fluid flow on a surface may be presented in various ways. A non-limiting example of a experiment indicating the relative responses obtained at different detector rows as the sample flow is guided laterally across the sensing surface of a flow cell by two guiding buffers in a BIACORE® system equipped with a W-cell (BIACORE® S51 is a SPR-based biosensor instrument, normally equipped with two Y-type flow cells, each allowing a dual flow over the a sensor surface for hydrodynamic addressing; Biacore AB, Uppsala, Sweden). Total buffer flow can be set to 100 μl/min, and the flow rates of the two buffer flows can be changed in steps of 2 μl/min, starting with 2 μl/min for one buffer and 98 μl/min for the other. Sample fluid flow can be 20 μl/min all the time. Relative responses >0.1 (i.e. 10% coverage of the detector row) are represented are measured as absorbance over time. This approach thus permits convenient visual monitoring of the sample fluid flow.

In some embodiments, the stability of an antigen secondary structure with an elevated stability as compared to a native antigen or antigen not fused to self-assembling peptide is from about 10 to about 10,000 RU more than the RU from a control as measured by SPR. In some embodiments, the stability of an antigen secondary structure with an elevated stability as compared to a native antigen or antigen not fused to self-assembling peptide is from about 5 to about 1,000 RU more than the RU from a control as measured by SPR. In some embodiments, the stability of an antigen secondary structure with an elevated stability as compared to a native antigen or antigen not fused to self-assembling peptide is from about 100 to about 10,000 RU more than the RU from a control as measured by SPR. In some embodiments, the stability of an antigen secondary structure with an elevated stability as compared to a native antigen or antigen not fused to self-assembling peptide is from about 100 to about 500 RU more than the RU from a control as measured by SPR. In some embodiments, the stability of an antigen secondary structure with an elevated stability as compared to a native antigen or antigen not fused to self-assembling peptide is from about 100 to about 200 RU more than the RU from a control as measured by SPR.

5. Regulatory Sequences

In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence can be operably linked to one or a plurality of regulatory sequences. The term “regulatory sequence” as used herein refer to DNA sequences which are necessary to effect expression of sequences to which they are ligated. The term “regulatory sequence” is intended to include, as a minimum, all components necessary for expression and optionally additional advantageous components. Examples of regulatory sequences include, but not limited to, promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements (e.g., polyadenylation signals). Further examples of regulatory sequences are described in, for example, Goeddel, 1990, Gene Expression Technology: Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. and Baron et al., 1995, Nucleic Acids Res. 23:3605-06. In some embodiments, the regulatory sequence is a promoter sequence. As used herein, a “promoter” means a region of DNA upstream from the transcription start and which is involved in binding RNA polymerase and other proteins to start transcription. Reference herein to a “promoter” is to be taken in its broadest context and includes the transcriptional regulatory sequences derived from a classical eukaryotic genomic gene, including the TATA box which is required for accurate transcription initiation, with or without a CCAAT box sequence and additional regulatory elements (i.e. upstream activating sequences, enhancers and silencers) which alter gene expression in response to developmental and/or external stimuli, or in a tissue-specific manner. Consequently, a repressible promoter's rate of transcription decreases in response to a repressing agent. An inducible promoter's rate of transcription increases in response to an inducing agent. A constitutive promoter's rate of transcription is not specifically regulated, though it can vary under the influence of general metabolic conditions. The term “promoter” also includes the transcriptional regulatory sequences of a classical prokaryotic gene, in which case it may include a −35 box sequence and/or a −10 box transcriptional regulatory sequences. The term “promoter” is also used to describe a synthetic or fusion molecule, or derivative which confers, activates or enhances expression of a nucleic acid molecule in a cell, tissue or organ.

B. Nucleic Acid Molecule

In some embodiments, the present disclosure also relates to a nucleic acid molecule that comprises any of the disclosed expressible nucleic acid sequences. For example, the expressible nucleic acid sequence disclosed herein can be part of a plasmid and thus the nucleic acid molecule is a plasmid comprising such an expressible nucleic acid sequence. In some embodiments, provided herein is a vector or plasmid that is capable of expressing at least a monomer of a self-assembling nanoparticle and a viral antigen construct or constructs in the cell of a mammal in a quantity effective to elicit an immune response in the mammal. The vector or plasmid may comprise heterologous nucleic acid encoding the one or more viral antigens (such as SARS-CoV-2 antigens). In some embodiments, provided herein is a vector or plasmid that is capable of expressing at least one soluble trimer of a coronavirus or SARS-CoV-2 envelope polypeptide or constructs in the cell of a mammal in a quantity effective to elicit an immune response in the mammal. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid expresses a trimer of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 or a functional fragment or variant thereof. The vector may be a plasmid. The plasmid may be useful for transfecting cells with nucleic acid encoding a viral antigen, which the transformed host cell is cultured and maintained under conditions wherein expression of the viral antigen takes place and wherein the structure of the nanoparticle with the antigen or trimer elicits an immune response of a magnitude greater than and/or more therapeutically effective than the immune response elicited by the antigen alone. The plasmid may further comprise an initiation codon, which may be upstream of the expressible sequence, and a stop codon, which may be downstream of the coding sequence. The initiation and termination codon may be in frame with the expressible sequence.

The plasmid may also comprise a promoter that is operably linked to the coding sequence. The promoter operably linked to the coding sequence may be a promoter from simian virus 40 (SV40), a mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter, a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) promoter such as the bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter, a Moloney virus promoter, an avian leukosis virus (ALV) promoter, a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter such as the CMV immediate early promoter, Epstein Barr virus (EBV) promoter, or a Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter. The promoter may also be a promoter from a human gene such as human actin, human myosin, human hemoglobin, human muscle creatine, or human metalothionein. The promoter may also be a tissue specific promoter, such as a muscle or skin specific promoter, natural or synthetic. Examples of such promoters are described in US patent application publication No. US20040175727, the contents of which are incorporated herein in its entirety. The plasmid may also comprise a polyadenylation signal, which may be downstream of the coding sequence. The polyadenylation signal may be a SV40 polyadenylation signal, LTR polyadenylation signal, bovine growth hormone (bGH) polyadenylation signal, human growth hormone (hGH) polyadenylation signal, or human β-globin polyadenylation signal. The SV40 polyadenylation signal may be a polyadenylation signal from a pCEP4 plasmid (Invitrogen, San Diego, Calif.).

The plasmid may also comprise an enhancer upstream of the coding sequence. The enhancer may be human actin, human myosin, human hemoglobin, human muscle creatine or a viral enhancer such as one from CMV, FMDV, RSV or EBV. Polynucleotide function enhancers are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,593,972, 5,962,428, and WO94/016737, the contents of each are fully incorporated by reference. The plasmid may also comprise a mammalian origin of replication in order to maintain the plasmid extrachromosomally and produce multiple copies of the plasmid in a cell. The plasmid may be pVAX1, pCEP4 or pREP4 from ThermoFisher Scientific (San Diego, Calif.), which may comprise the Epstein Barr virus origin of replication and nuclear antigen EBNA-1 coding region, which may produce high copy episomal replication without integration.

In some embodiments, the vector can be pVAX1 or a pVax1 variant with changes such as the variant plasmid described herein. The variant pVax1 plasmid is a 2998 basepair variant of the backbone vector plasmid pVAX1 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad Calif.). The CMV promoter is located at bases 137-724. The T7 promoter/priming site is at bases 664-683. Multiple cloning sites are at bases 696-811. Bovine GH polyadenylation signal is at bases 829-1053. The Kanamycin resistance gene is at bases 1226-2020. The pUC origin is at bases 2320-2993. The vaccine may comprise the consensus antigens and plasmids at quantities of from about 1 nanogram to 100 milligrams; about 1 microgram to about 10 milligrams; or preferably about 0.1 microgram to about 10 milligrams; or more preferably about 1 milligram to about 2 milligram. In some embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions according to the present disclosure comprise from about 1 nanogram to about 1000 micrograms of DNA. The nucleic acid sequence for the pVAX1 backbone sequence is as follows:

Methods of preparing the nucleic acid sequences are disclosed. In some embodiments, plasmid sequences with one or more multiple cloning sites my be purchased from commercially available vendors and the expressible nucleic acid sequences disclosed herein may be ligated into the plasmids after a digestion with a known restriction enzyme needed to cute the plasmid DNA. In another alternative embodiment, membrane-based purification methods disclosed herein offer reduced cost, high binding capacity, and high flow rates, resulting in a superior purification process. The purification process is further demonstrated to produce plasmid products substantially free of genomic DNA, RNA, protein, and endotoxin.

In some embodiments, all of the described aspects of the present disclosure are advantageously combined to provide an integrated process for preparing substantially purified cellular components of interest from cells in bioreactors. Again, the cells are most preferably plasmid-containing cells, and the cellular components of interest are most preferably plasmids. The substantially purified plasmids are suitable for various uses, including, but not limited to, gene therapy, plasmid-mediated therapy, as DNA vaccines for human, veterinary, or agricultural use, or for any other application that requires large quantities of purified plasmid. In this aspect, all of the advantages described for individual aspects of the present disclosure accrue to the complete, integrated process, providing a highly advantageous method that is rapid, scalable, and inexpensive. Enzymes and other animal-derived or biologically sourced products are avoided, as are carcinogenic, mutagenic, or otherwise toxic substances. Potentially flammable, explosive, or toxic organic solvents are similarly avoided.

One aspect of the present disclosure is an apparatus for isolating plasmid DNA from a suspension of cells having both plasmid DNA and genomic DNA. An embodiment of the apparatus comprises a first tank and second tank in fluid communication with a mixer. The first tank is used for holding the suspension cells and the second tank is used for holding a lysis solution. The suspension of cells from the first tank and the lysis solution from the second tank are both allowed to flow into the mixer forming a lysate mixture or lysate fluid. The mixer comprises a high shear, low residence-time mixing device with a residence time of equal to or less than about 1 second. In a preferred embodiment, the mixing device comprises a flow through, rotor/stator mixer or emulsifier having linear flow rates from about 0.1 L/min to about 20 L/min. The lysate-mixture flows from the mixer into a holding coil for a period of time sufficient to lyse the cells and forming a cell lysate suspension, wherein the lysate-mixture has resident time in the holding coil in a range of about 2-8 minutes with a continuous linear flow rate.

The cell lysate suspension is then allowed to flow into a bubble-mixer chamber for precipitation of cellular components from the plasmid DNA. In the bubble mixer chamber, the cell lysate suspension and a precipitation solution or a neutralization solution from a third tank are mixed together using gas bubbles, which forms a mixed gas suspension comprising a precipitate and an unclarified lysate or plasmid containing fluid. The precipitate of the mixed gas suspension is less dense than the plasmid containing fluid, which facilitates the separation of the precipitate from the plasmid containing fluid. The precipitate is removed from the mixed gas suspension to give a clarified lysate having the plasmid DNA, and the precipitate having cellular debris and genomic DNA.

In some embodiments, the bubble mixer-chamber comprises a closed vertical column with a top, a bottom, a first, and a second side with a vent proximal to the top of the column. A first inlet port of the bubble mixer-chamber is on the first side proximal to the bottom of the column and in fluid communication with the holding coil. A second inlet port of the bubble mixer-chamber is proximal to the bottom on a second side opposite of the first inlet port and in fluid communication with a third tank, wherein the third tank is used for holding a precipitation or a neutralization solution. A third inlet port of the bubble mixer-chamber is proximal to the bottom of the column and about in the middle of the first and second inlets and is in fluid communication with a gas source the third inlet entering the bubble-mixer-chamber. A preferred embodiment utilizes a sintered sparger inside the closed vertical column of the third inlet port. The outlet port exiting the bubble mixing chamber is proximal to the top of the closed vertical column. The outlet port is in fluid communication with a fourth tank, wherein the mixed gas suspension containing the plasmid DNA is allowed to flow from the bubble-mixer-chamber into the fourth tank. The fourth tank is used for separating the precipitate of the mixed gas suspension having a plasmid containing fluid, and can also include an impeller mixer sufficient to provide uniform mixing of fluid without disturbing the precipitate. A fifth tank is used for a holding the clarified lysate or clarified plasmid containing fluid. The clarified lysate is then filtered at least once. A first filter has a particle size limit of about 5-10 μm and the second filter has a cut of about 0.2 μm. Although gravity, pressure, vacuum, or a mixture thereof can be used for transporting: suspension of cells; lysis solutions; precipitation solutions; neutralization solutions; or mixed gas suspensions from any of the tanks to mixers, holding coils or different tanks, pumps are utilized in a preferred embodiments. In a more preferred embodiment, at least one pump having a linear flow rate from about 0.1 to about 1 ft/second is used.

In another specific embodiment, a Y-connector having a having a first bifurcated branch, a second bifurcated branch and an exit branch is used to contact the cell suspension and the lysis solutions before they enter the high shear, low residence-time mixing device. The first tank holding the cell suspension is in fluid communication with the first bifurcated branch of the Y-connector through the first pump and the second tank holding the lysis solution is in fluid communication with the second bifurcated branch of the Y-connector through the second pump. The high shear, low residence-time mixing device is in fluid communication with an exit branch of the Y-connector, wherein the first and second pumps provide a linear flow rate of about 0.1 to about 2 ft/second for a contacted fluid exiting the Y-connector.

Another specific aspect of the present disclosure is a method of substantially separating plasmid DNA and genomic DNA from a bacterial cell lysate. The method comprises: delivering a cell lysate into a chamber; delivering a precipitation fluid or a neutralization fluid into the chamber; mixing the cell lysate and the precipitation fluid or a neutralization fluid in the chamber with gas bubbles forming a gas mixed suspension, wherein the gas mixed suspension comprises the plasmid DNA in a fluid portion (i.e. an unclarified lysate) and the genomic DNA is in a precipitate that is less dense than the fluid portion; floating the precipitate on top of the fluid portion; removing the fluid portion from the precipitate forming a clarified lysate, whereby the plasmid DNA in the clarified lysate is substantially separated from genomic DNA in the precipitate. In some embodiments, the chamber is the bubble mixing chamber as described above; the lysing solution comprises an alkali, an acid, a detergent, an organic solvent, an enzyme, a chaotrope, or a denaturant; the precipitation fluid or the neutralization fluid comprises potassium acetate, ammonium acetate, or a mixture thereof; and the gas bubbles comprise compressed air or an inert gas. Additionally, the decanted-fluid portion containing the plasmid DNA is preferably further purified with one or more purification steps selected from a group consisting of: ion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, size exclusion, reverse phase purification, endotoxin depletion, affinity purification, adsorption to silica, glass, or polymeric materials, expanded bed chromatography, mixed mode chromatography, displacement chromatography, hydroxyapatite purification, selective precipitation, aqueous two-phase purification, DNA condensation, thiophilic purification, ion-pair purification, metal chelate purification, filtration through nitrocellulose, or ultrafiltration.

Further, the conjugate may inhibit phagocytic clearance of the nanoparticles in a subject. In some aspects, the conjugate may be a “self” peptide designed from the human membrane protein CD47 (e.g., the “self” particles described by Rodriguez et al. (Science 2013, 339, 971-975), herein incorporated by reference in its entirety). As shown by Rodriguez et al., the self peptides delayed macrophage-mediated clearance of nanoparticles which enhanced delivery of the nanoparticles. In other aspects, the conjugate may be the membrane protein CD47 (e.g., see Rodriguez et al. Science 2013, 339, 971-975, herein incorporated by reference in its entirety).

In some embodiments, efficacy of RNA vaccines RNA (e.g., mRNA) can be significantly enhanced when combined with a flagellin adjuvant, in particular, when one or more antigen-encoding mRNAs is combined with an mRNA encoding flagellin.

RNA (e.g., mRNA) vaccines combined with the flagellin adjuvant (e.g., mRNA-encoded flagellin adjuvant) have superior properties in that they may produce much larger antibody titers and produce responses earlier than commercially available vaccine formulations. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the RNA vaccines, for example, as mRNA polynucleotides, are better designed to produce the appropriate protein conformation upon translation, for both the antigen and the adjuvant, as the RNA (e.g., mRNA) vaccines co-opt natural cellular machinery. Unlike traditional vaccines, which are manufactured ex vivo and may trigger unwanted cellular responses, RNA (e.g., mRNA) vaccines are presented to the cellular system in a more native fashion.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide RNA (e.g., mRNA) vaccines that include at least one RNA (e.g., mRNA) polynucleotide having an open reading frame encoding at least one antigenic polypeptide or an immunogenic fragment thereof (e.g., an immunogenic fragment capable of inducing an immune response to the antigenic polypeptide) and at least one RNA (e.g., mRNA polynucleotide) having an open reading frame encoding a flagellin adjuvant.

In some embodiments, at least one flagellin polypeptide (e.g., encoded flagellin polypeptide) is a flagellin protein. In some embodiments, at least one flagellin polypeptide (e.g., encoded flagellin polypeptide) is an immunogenic flagellin fragment. In some embodiments, at least one flagellin polypeptide and at least one antigenic polypeptide are encoded by a single RNA (e.g., mRNA) polynucleotide. In other embodiments, at least one flagellin polypeptide and at least one antigenic polypeptide are each encoded by a different RNA polynucleotide.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods of inducing an antigen specific immune response in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in an amount effective to produce an antigen specific immune response.

In some aspects, vaccines of the invention (e.g., LNP-encapsulated mRNA vaccines) produce prophylactically- and/or therapeutically-efficacious levels, concentrations and/or titers of antigen-specific antibodies in the blood or serum of a vaccinated subject. As defined herein, the term antibody titer refers to the amount of antigen-specific antibody produces in s subject, e.g., a human subject. In exemplary embodiments, antibody titer is expressed as the inverse of the greatest dilution (in a serial dilution) that still gives a positive result. In exemplary embodiments, antibody titer is determined or measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In exemplary embodiments, antibody titer is determined or measured by neutralization assay, e.g., by microneutralization assay. In certain aspects, antibody titer measurement is expressed as a ratio, such as 1:40, 1:100, etc.

In exemplary embodiments of the invention, an efficacious vaccine produces an antibody titer of greater than 1:40, greater that 1:100, greater than 1:400, greater than 1:1000, greater than 1:2000, greater than 1:3000, greater than 1:4000, greater than 1:500, greater than 1:6000, greater than 1:7500, greater than 1:10000. In exemplary embodiments, the antibody titer is produced or reached by 10 days following vaccination, by 20 days following vaccination, by 30 days following vaccination, by 40 days following vaccination, or by 50 or more days following vaccination. In exemplary embodiments, the titer is produced or reached following a single dose of vaccine administered to the subject. In other embodiments, the titer is produced or reached following multiple doses, e.g., following a first and a second dose (e.g., a booster dose.)

In exemplary aspects of the invention, antigen-specific antibodies are measured in units of g/ml or are measured in units of IU/L (International Units per liter) or mIU/ml (milli International Units per ml). In exemplary embodiments of the invention, an efficacious vaccine produces >0.5 μg/ml, >0.1 μg/ml, >0.2 μg/ml, >0.35 μg/ml, >0.5 μg/ml, >1 μg/ml, >2 μg/ml, >5 μg/ml or >10 μg/ml. In exemplary embodiments of the invention, an efficacious vaccine produces >10 mIU/ml, >20 mIU/ml, >50 mIU/ml, >100 mIU/ml, >200 mIU/ml, >500 mIU/ml or >1000 mIU/ml. In exemplary embodiments, the antibody level or concentration is produced or reached by 10 days following vaccination, by 20 days following vaccination, by 30 days following vaccination, by 40 days following vaccination, or by 50 or more days following vaccination. In exemplary embodiments, the level or concentration is produced or reached following a single dose of vaccine administered to the subject. In other embodiments, the level or concentration is produced or reached following multiple doses, e.g., following a first and a second dose (e.g., a booster dose.) In exemplary embodiments, antibody level or concentration is determined or measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In exemplary embodiments, antibody level or concentration is determined or measured by neutralization assay, e.g., by microneutralization assay.

In some embodiments, the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine includes at least one RNA polynucleotide having an open reading frame encoding at least one SARS-CoV-2 antigenic polypeptide having at least one modification, at least one 5′ terminal cap, and is formulated within a lipid nanoparticle. 5′-capping of polynucleotides may be completed concomitantly during the in vitro-transcription reaction using the following chemical RNA cap analogs to generate the 5′-guanosine cap structure according to manufacturer protocols: 3′-O-Me-m7G(5′)ppp(5′) G [the ARCA cap]; G(5′)ppp(5′)A; G(5′)ppp(5′)G; m7G(5′)ppp(5′)A; m7G(5′)ppp(5′)G (New England BioLabs, Ipswich, Mass.). 5′-capping of modified RNA may be completed post-transcriptionally using a Vaccinia Virus Capping Enzyme to generate the “Cap 0” structure: m7G(5′)ppp(5′)G (New England BioLabs, Ipswich, Mass.). Cap 1 structure may be generated using both Vaccinia Virus Capping Enzyme and a 2′-O methyl-transferase to generate m7G(5′)ppp(5′)G-2′-O-methyl. Cap 2 structure may be generated from the Cap 1 structure followed by the 2′-O-methylation of the 5′-antepenultimate nucleotide using a 2′-O methyl-transferase. Cap 3 structure may be generated from the Cap 2 structure followed by the 2′-O-methylation of the 5′-preantepenultimate nucleotide using a 2′-O methyl-transferase. Enzymes are preferably derived from a recombinant source. When transfected into mammalian cells, the modified mRNAs have a stability of from about 12 to about 18 hours or more than about 18 hours, e.g., 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, or greater than about 72 hours.

In some embodiments, a codon optimized RNA may, for instance, be one in which the levels of G/C are enhanced. The G/C-content of nucleic acid molecules may influence the stability of the RNA. RNA having an increased amount of guanine (G) and/or cytosine (C) residues may be functionally more stable than nucleic acids containing a large amount of adenine (A) and thymine (T) or uracil (U) nucleotides. WO02/098443 discloses a pharmaceutical composition containing an mRNA stabilized by sequence modifications in the translated region. Due to the degeneracy of the genetic code, the modifications work by substituting existing codons for those that promote greater RNA stability without changing the resulting amino acid. The approach is limited to coding regions of the RNA.

In some embodiments, polynucleotides (e.g., RNA polynucleotides, such as mRNA polynucleotides) include a combination of at least two (e.g., 2, 3, 4 or more) of the aforementioned modified nucleobases.

The expressible nucleic acid sequence of the present disclosure may be partially or fully modified along the entire length of the molecule. For example, one or more or all or a given type of nucleotide (e.g., purine or pyrimidine, or any one or more or all of A, G, U, C) may be uniformly modified in a polynucleotide of the invention, or in a given predetermined sequence region thereof (e.g., in the mRNA including or excluding the polyA tail). In some embodiments, all nucleotides X in a polynucleotide of the present disclosure (or in a given sequence region thereof) are modified nucleotides, wherein X may be any one of nucleotides A, G, U, C, or any one of the combinations A+G, A+U, A+C, G+U, G+C, U+C, A+G+U, A+G+C, G+U+C, or A+G+C.

The polynucleotide may contain from about 1% to about 100% modified nucleotides (either in relation to overall nucleotide content, or in relation to one or more types of nucleotide, i.e., any one or more of A, G, U or C) or any intervening percentage (e.g., from 1% to 20%, from 1% to 25%, from 1% to 50%, from about 1% to about 60%, from 1% to 70%, from 1% to 80%, from 1% to 90%, from 1% to 95%, from 10% to 20%, from 10% to 25%, from 10% to 50%, from 10% to 60%, from 10% to 70%, from 10% to 80%, from 10% to 90%, from 10% to 95%, from 10% to 100%, from 20% to 25%, from 20% to 50%, from 20% to 60%, from 20% to 70%, from 20% to 80%, from 20% to 90%, from 20% to 95%, from 20% to 100%, from 50% to 60%, from 50% to 70%, from 50% to 80%, from 50% to 90%, from 50% to 95%, from 50% to 100%, from 70% to 80%, from 70% to 90%, from 70% to 95%, from 70% to 100%, from 80% to 90%, from 80% to 95%, from 80% to 100%, from 90% to 95%, from 90% to 100%, and from 95% to 100%). It will be understood that any remaining percentage is accounted for by the presence of unmodified A, G, U, or C.

The nucleic acid sequences may contain at a minimum 1% and at maximum 100% modified nucleotides, or any intervening percentage, such as at least 5% modified nucleotides, at least 10% modified nucleotides, at least 25% modified nucleotides, at least 50% modified nucleotides, at least 80% modified nucleotides, or at least 90% modified nucleotides.

In some embodiments, at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 25%, at least 50%, at least 80%, at least 90%, or 100% of the cytosine in the polynucleotide is replaced with a modified cytosine (e.g., a 5-substituted cytosine). The modified cytosine can be replaced by a compound having a single unique structure, or can be replaced by a plurality of compounds having different structures (e.g., 2, 3, 4, or more unique structures).

Thus, in some embodiments, the RNA vaccines and/or RNA nucleic acid sequences comprise a 5′UTR element, an optionally codon optimized open reading frame, and a 3′UTR element, a poly(A) sequence and/or a polyadenylation signal wherein the RNA is not chemically modified.

Viral vaccines of the present disclosure comprise at least one RNA polynucleotide, such as a mRNA (e.g., modified mRNA). mRNA, for example, is transcribed in vitro from template DNA, referred to as an “in vitro transcription template.” In some embodiments, the at least one RNA polynucleotide has at least one chemical modification. The at least one chemical modification may include, but is expressly not limited to, any modification described herein.

In vitro transcription of RNA is known in the art and is described in WO/2014/152027, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. For example, in some embodiments, the RNA transcript is generated using a non-amplified, linearized DNA template in an in vitro transcription reaction to generate the RNA transcript. In some embodiments, the RNA transcript is capped via enzymatic capping. In some embodiments, the RNA transcript is purified via chromatographic methods, e.g., use of an oligo dT substrate. Some embodiments exclude the use of DNase. In some embodiments, the RNA transcript is synthesized from a non-amplified, linear DNA template coding for the gene of interest via an enzymatic in vitro transcription reaction utilizing a T7 phage RNA polymerase and nucleotide triphosphates of the desired chemistry. Any number of RNA polymerases or variants may be used in the method of the present invention. The polymerase may be selected from, but is not limited to, a phage RNA polymerase, e.g., a T7 RNA polymerase, a T3 RNA polymerase, a SP6 RNa polymerase, and/or mutant polymerases such as, but not limited to, polymerases able to incorporate modified nucleic acids and/or modified nucleotides, including chemically modified nucleic acids and/or nucleotides.

In some embodiments, anon-amplified, linearized plasmid DNA is utilized as the template DNA for in vitro transcription. In some embodiments, the template DNA is isolated DNA. In some embodiments, the template DNA is cDNA. In some embodiments, the cDNA is formed by reverse transcription of a RNA polynucleotide, for example, but not limited to SARS-CoV-2 RNA, e.g. SARS-CoV-2 mRNA. In some embodiments, cells, e.g., bacterial cells, e.g., E. coli, e.g., DH-1 cells are transfected with the plasmid DNA template. In some embodiments, the transfected cells are cultured to replicate the plasmid DNA which is then isolated and purified. In some embodiments, the DNA template includes a RNA polymerase promoter, e.g., a T7 promoter located 5′ to and operably linked to the gene of interest.

EXAMPLES
Example 1. Incorporation of a Novel CD4+ Helper Epitope Identified from Aquifex aeolicus Enhances Humoral Responses Induced by DNA and Protein Vaccinations

Synthetic DNA delivery by electroporation was previously used to mediate in vivo assembly of nanoparticle vaccines and it was observed that some nanoparticle scaffolding domains (used to promote self-assembly of scaffolded antigens) could induce CD4+ T-cell responses (Xu et al., 2020). Here, epitope mapping on several bacterial or viral scaffold protein domains was performed and it was determined that lumazine synthase (LS) from Aquifex aeolicus contained very potent CD4-helper epitopes for both BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. LS can scaffold the assembly of 60 copies of HIV-priming antigen GT8, eOD-GT8-60mer, as well as other antigens (Jardine et al., 2016; Xu et al., 2020). In silico binding analysis determined that the identified C57BL/6 CD4-helper epitope (LS-3) was predicted also to have high binding affinity (<100 nM) to several common human MHC-II alleles (HLA-DRB1*07:01, HLA-DRB1*15:01 and HLA-DRB5*01:01). How this epitope might contribute to humoral immunity was determined by engineering mutations that knocked out binding of this epitope to murine HLA I-Ab (LS3KO) and it was observed that DNA-launched GT8-60mer nanoparticles containing this mutant epitope (DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8) induced weaker antibody responses than the corresponding DNA-launched wild-type GT8-60mer nanoparticles (DLnano_LS_GT8). Finally, engineered fusion of the identified LS-3 epitope to a different antigen, hemagglutinin (HA) receptor binding domain (RBD) from influenza H1/CA/07/09 (LS3-CA09), improved humoral responses induced to HA by DNA and protein vaccinations. Overall, this study provides a relatively rigorous demonstration that simple fusion of a dominant CD4-helper epitope to a target antigen could improve humoral responses induced by either protein or DNA vaccines in animal models, and additionally describes the identification of a novel CD4-helper epitope from a bacterial enzyme, which may help inform the design of additional protein and DNA vaccines and be of translational importance.

1. Materials and Methods

i. Structure Modeling and Design of CD4Mut_LS_GT8 Nanoparticles

Mutations to the LS-3 peptide were achieved using a structure-guided process. First, positions 14, 19, 22 and 24 in the LS domain were selected for mutation because they were making minimal contacts to the rest of the LS 1HQK crystal structure, which was hypothesized to have less detrimental effect on protein folding. Second, the ‘fixbb’ application of ROSETTA was used to computationally mutate the selected positions to each of the 20 amino acids allowing neighboring residues to change conformation. Mutations were selected which had similar or lower total score relative to the wild-type amino acid and by visual inspection of the resulting structural models. The mutations were R14K, A19G, A22F, A24G.

ii. DNA Design and Plasmid Synthesis

Protein sequences for IgE Leader Sequence and eOD-GT8-60mer were as previously reported (Briney et al., 2016; Xu et al., 2018). DNA encoding protein sequences were codon and RNA optimized as previously described (Xu et al., 2018). The optimized transgenes were synthesized de novo (GenScript) and cloned into a modified pVAX-1 backbone under the control of the human CMV promoter and bovine growth hormone polyadenylation signal.

iii. Production of His-Tagged LS3-CA09, LS3KO-CA09, or PADRE-CA09

Expi293F cells were transfected with pVAX plasmid vector carrying the His-Tagged LS3-CA09, LS3KO-CA09, PADRE-CA09, GT8-monomer, eOD-GT8-60mer or CD4Mut_LS_GT8-60mer transgene with PEI/OPTI-MEM and harvested 6 days post-transfection. Transfection supernatant was first purified with affinity chromatography using the AKTA pure 25 system and an IMAC Nickel column for His-Tagged constructs and gravity flow columns filled with GNL Lectin beads (for nanoparticles). The eluate fractions from the affinity purification were pooled, concentrated and dialyzed into 1×PBS buffer before being loaded onto the SEC column and then purified with size exclusion chromatography with the Superdex 200 10/300 GL column (GE Healthcare) for His-Tagged constructs, and with Superose 6 Increase 10/300 GL column for nanoparticles. Identified eluate fractions were then collected and concentrated to 1 mg/mL in PBS.

iv. Animals

All animal experiments were carried out in accordance with animal protocols 201214 and 201115 approved by the Wistar Institute Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC). For DNA-based immunization, 6 to 8 week old female C57BL/6 or BALB/c mice (Jackson Laboratory) were immunized with DNA vaccines via intramuscular injections into the tibialis anterior muscles, coupled with intramuscular EP with the CELLECTRA 3P device (Inovio Pharmaceuticals). In experiments in FIG. 1A-1G and FIG. 3A-3F, mice were immunized twice with 25 μg DNA plasmid three weeks apart and euthanized two weeks post the second vaccination. In experiments in FIG. 4A-4J, mice were immunized twice with 25 μg DNA plasmid twice four weeks apart and euthanized one week post the second vaccination. For vaccinations involving recombinant protein, 6 to 8-week-old female C57BL/6 mice were immunized intramuscularly with 10 μg of recombinant LS3-CA09, LS3KO-CA09 or PADRE-CA09 protein in 15 μL sterile PBS co-formulated with 15 μL Sigma Adjuvant System (SigmaAldrich) in the tibialis anterior muscles three times four weeks apart and were euthanized one week post the third immunization.

v. HA-Binding ELISA

96-well half area plates were coated at 4° C. overnight with 2 μg/mL of recombinant HA(ΔTM)(A/California/04/2009) (Immune Technology), and blocked at room temperature for 2 hours with a solution containing 1×PBS, 5% skim milk, 10% goat serum, 1% BSA, 1% FBS, and 0.2% Tween-20. The plates were subsequently incubated with serially diluted mouse sera at 37° C. for 2 hours, followed by 1-hour incubation with anti-mouse IgG H+L HRP (Bethyl) at 1:20,000 dilution at room temperature and developed with TMB substrate. Absorbance at 450 nm and 570 nm were recorded with BioTEK plate reader.

vi. Antigenic Profile Characterization of Purified eOD-GT8-60Mer and CD4Mut_LS_GT8-60mer

Corning half-area 96-well plates were coated with 2 μg/mL of purified eOD-GT8-60mer or CD4Mut_LS_GT8-60mer at 4° C. overnight. The plates were then blocked with the buffer as described above for 2 hours at room temperature, followed by incubation with serially diluted VRC01 at room temperature for 2 hours. The plates were then incubated with anti-human Fc (cross-adsorbed against rabbits and mice) (Jackson Immunoresearch) at 1:10,000 dilution for 1 hour, followed by addition of TMB substrate for detection. Absorbance at 450 nm and 570 nm were recorded with BioTEK plate reader.

vii. HAI Assay

Mice sera were treated with receptor-destroying enzyme (RDE, 1:3 ratio; SEIKEN) at 37° C. overnight for 18-20 hours followed by complement and enzyme inactivation at 56° C. for 45 minutes. RDE-treated sera were subsequently cross-adsorbed with 10% rooster red blood cells (Lampire Biologicals) in 0.9% saline at 4° C. for 1 hour. The cross-adsorbed sera were then serially diluted with PBS in a 96-well V-bottom microtiter plates (Corning). Four hemagglutinating doses (HAD) of A/California/07/2009 (H1N1)pdm09 (Virapur) were added to each well and the serum-virus mixture was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was then incubated with 50 μl 0.5% v/v rooster red blood cells in 0.9% saline for 30 minutes at room temperature. The HAI antibody titer was scored with the dot method, and the reciprocal of the highest dilution that did not cause agglutination of the rooster red blood cells was recorded.

viii. ELISpot Assay

Spleens from immunized mice were collected and homogenized into single cell suspension with a tissue stomacher in 10% FBS/1% Penicillin-streptomycin in RPMI 1640. Red blood cells were subsequently lysed with ACK lysing buffer (ThermoFisher) and percentage of viable cells were determined with Trypan Blue exclusion using Vi-CELL XR (Beckman Coulter). 200,000 cells were then plated in each well in the mouse IFNγ ELISpot plates (MabTech), followed by addition of peptide pools that span both the lumazine synthase, 3BVE, PfV or GT8 domains, or individual LS-3, LS3KO or PADRE peptides at 5 μg/mL of final concentration for each peptide (GenScript). The cells were then stimulated at 37° C. for 16-18 hours, followed by development according to the manufacturer's instructions. Spots for each well were then imaged and counted with ImmunoSpot Macro Analyzer.

ix. Intracellular Cytokine Staining

Single cell suspension from spleens of immunized animals were prepared as described before and stimulated with 5 μg/mL of peptides (GenScript) for 5 hours at 37° C. in the presence of 1:500 protein transport inhibitor (ThermoFisher). The cells were then incubated with live/dead for 10 minutes at room temperature, surface stains (anti-mouse CD4 BV510, anti-mouse CD8 APC-Cy7, anti-mouse CD44 AF700, anti-mouse CD62L BV771) (BD-Biosciences) at room temperature for 30 minutes. The cells were then fixed and permeabilized according to manufacturer's instructions for BD Cytoperm Cytofix kit and stained with intracellular stains anti-mouse IL-2 PE-Cy7, anti-mouse IFN-γ APC, anti-mouse CD3e PE-Cy5 and anti-mouse TNFa BV605 (BioLegend) at 4° C. for 1 hour. The cells were subsequently analyzed with LSR II 18-color flow cytometer.

x. Epitope Mapping

15-mer peptides spanning the LS and GT8 domains of eOD-GT8-60mer (GenScript) were arranged into row and column pools (each peptide appears exactly once in the row pool and once in the column pool). Splenocytes from BALB/c or C57BL/6 immunized twice with 25 ug DLnano_LS_GT8 were co-incubated with each peptide pool with a final concentration of 5 μg/mL for each peptide overnight in IFNγ ELIspot plates (MabTech). The plates were then developed according to manufacturer's instruction, and peptides that can potentially stimulate T-cell responses were identified based on the combination of row and column pools that induce IFNγ responses. Responses to those peptides were then confirmed with ICS as described in the last section.

xi. Statistics

Power analysis was performed with R based on our preliminary data to determine the smallest sample size that would allow us to achieve a power of 0.9 with a pre-set α-value of 0.05. All statistical analyses were performed with PRISM V 8.2.1 and R V 3.5.1. Each individual data point was sampled independently. Two-tailed Mann Whitney Rank Tests were used to compare differences between groups. Bonferroni corrections were used to adjust for multiple comparisons.

i. Identification Novel Murine CD4-Helper Epitopes from the LS Domain of Aquifex aeolicus

It was previously observed that scaffold domains used to drive in vivo assembly of nanoparticle vaccines could sometimes induce CD4+ T-cell responses (Xu et al., 2020). Here, CD4+ T-cell responses elicited by various nanoparticle scaffolding domains, ferritin from Helicobacter pylori (3BVE), LS from Aquifex aeolicus, and the viral cage of Prototype Foamy Virus (PfV), were compared in BALB/c immunized with DNA-launched GT8 nanoparticle vaccines that incorporate these respective protein domains (DLnano_3BVE_GT8, DLnano_LS_GT8, DLnano_PfV_GT8) (FIG. 1A). All mice in the experiments were immunized twice with 25 μg DNA immunogens three weeks apart and were euthanized two weeks post the second vaccination, at the time point which corresponded to their peak cellular responses. Using intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) to analyze murine splenocytes stimulated with overlapping peptide pools that spanned the respective protein domains, it was determined that the LS domain elicited the most potent CD4+ T-cell responses (approximately 2% of CD3+CD4+CD62L-CD44+ T-cells were observed to IFNγ+ following peptide stimulation), followed by the PfV and the 3BVE domains. Importantly, DLnano_LS_GT8 vaccination elicited even more potent CD4+ T-cell responses to the LS domain in the C57BL/6 mice than in the BALB/c mice, as measured by expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFNγ, TNFα and IL-2 upon peptide stimulation (FIG. 1B). LS-specific poly-functional CD4+ T cell responses, as defined by the simultaneous expression of all three cytokines IFNγ, TNFα and IL-2, were induced in both the BALB/c and the C57BL/6 mice, accounting for approximately 1% and 3% of all CD3+CD4+CD62L-CD44+ T cells respectively (FIG. 1C). To identify the exact CD4-helper epitope in both the BABL/c and the C57BL/6 mice, a combination of an IFNγ ELIspot assay for screening and a flow-based ICS assay for confirmation was used. Two predominant non-overlapping CD4+ epitopes in the LS domain were observed for the BALB/c mice (LS-13: DAVIAIGVLCRGATP and LS-15: ATPSFDYIASEVSKG) (FIG. 1D and FIG. 1E), whereas a single dominant CD4+ epitope in the LS domain was observed for the C57BL/6 mice (LS-3: LRFGIVASRANHALV) (FIG. 1F and FIG. 1G). The overall CD4+ T-cell responses measured by ICS were lower in the mapping study than in the previous experiment (FIG. 1B, FIG. 1E and FIG. 1G), likely because while fresh splenocytes were used for ICS analysis previously (FIG. 1B), splenocytes were used 24 hours post-harvest in the mapping experiment due to the time required for the preliminary IFNγ ELIspot screen (FIG. 1E and FIG. 1G). Additional epitopes identified through the preliminary IFNγ ELIspot screen were also characterized (FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B) by ICS, and mapped the CD8+ T-cell responses to two GT8 peptides in the BALB/c mice (FIG. 5C and Table 1) and to one LS peptide in the C57BL/6 mice (FIG. 5D and Table 1).

ii. Murine HLA-IAb Epitope was Predicted to have High Binding Affinity for Several Human MHC-II Alleles by in Silico Analysis

As the identified murine LS CD4-helper epitopes may or may not be conserved in humans, in silico analysis was used to predict the binding affinities of the identified LS-3, LS-13 and LS-15 epitopes to common human MHC-II alleles. Using a stabilization matrix method (SMM-align) and an artificial neural network-based method (NN-align) for alignment (Nielsen and Lund, 2009; Nielsen et al., 2007), the mapped murine C57BL/6 HLA-IAb epitope LS-3 demonstrated high binding affinity (<100 nM) for HLA-DRB1*07:01, HLA-DRB1*15:01 and HLA-DRB5*01:01, which correspond to human allele frequencies of 6.98%, 7.86%, and 14.6% respectively (Louthrenoo et al., 2013; Solberg et al., 2008), and moderate binding affinity (<1000 nM) for HLA-DRB1*03:01 and HLA-DRB4*01:01, which correspond to human allele frequencies of 6.76% and 35% respectively (Geng et al., 1995; Solberg et al., 2008). Low-to-moderate binding affinity (<5000 nM) was observed for LS-3 to the human allele HLA-DRB3*01:01 (FIG. 2A). Of note, both the NN-align and the SMM-align correctly predicted high binding affinities of the LS-3 epitope to murine HLA-IAb. In contrast, the identified murine BALB/c HLA-IAd epitopes LS-13 and LS-15 were predicted to have lower binding affinities to either human or murine HLA alleles than the LS-3 epitope (FIG. 2B). As such, since the LS-3 epitope was more likely to be conserved in humans, it was decided to further characterize the HLA-IAb LS-3 epitope rather than the HLA-IAd LS-13/LS-15 epitopes in the downstream experiments.

iii. Identified Murine LS-3 CD4+ Helper Epitope Supported the Induction of Potent Immune Responses by DLnano_LS_GT8

To determine whether CD4+ T-cell help provided by the identified LS-3 epitope can contribute to the induction of humoral immunity by DLnano_LS_GT8, a GT8 nanoparticle variant (DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8) was engineered through a structure-guided design process in which the LS-3 epitope was selectively mutated to ablate its binding to HLA-IAb (as informed by the NN-align and the SMM-align based binding analysis). Care was taken, simultaneously, to avoid mutations that may disrupt nanoparticle assembly. 27% residues in the LS-3 epitope (4/15 residues) were mutated and the corresponding knockout epitope LS3-KO was generated (FIG. 3A and Table. 1), resulting in reduction of HLA-IAb binding affinity from 205 nM to 4261 nM by the SMM-align and 61.7 nM to 7668 nM by the NN-align. Whether the engineered variant DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8 incorporating the LS3-KO epitope could still assemble homogenously was verified by expressing this new construct in vitro and performing size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of the lectin-column purified DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8 transfection supernatant. SEC showed CD4MutLS_GT8 assembled homogenously into 60-mer (single peak observed on the SEC trace centering at 12.33 mL retention volume) similar to what we previously observed for the wildtype eOD-GT8-60mer (FIG. 3B) (Xu et al., 2020). Additionally, Size Exclusion Chromatography Multi Angle Light Scattering (SEC-MALs) analysis determined the molecular weight of CD4MutLS_GT8 to be around 2 Mda, close to the observed molecular weight of eOD-GT8-60mer (FIG. 6A) (Xu et al., 2020). The antigenic profiles of the engineered immunogens were examined and equivalent binding to VRC01, an HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibody, was observed for eOD-GT8_60mer and CD4MutLS_GT8_60mer (FIG. 3C). ICS analyses of mice immunized with respective DNA-encoded constructs confirmed complete knockout of the LS-3 CD4+ helper epitope in the CD4MutLS_GT8 construct (FIG. 3D and FIG. 3E). Sera from animals seven d.p.i demonstrated significantly attenuated responses to GT8 in animals immunized with DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8, though they still had stronger responses than those immunized with DNA-encoded GT8-monomer (FIG. 3F). Differences in humoral immunity induced by DLnano_LS_GT8 and DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8 waned overtime; however, repeat vaccination of DLnano_LS_GT8 but not DLnano_CD4MutLS_GT8 at 21 d.p.i boosted the humoral immunity in mice (FIG. 6B). Taken together, this experiment suggests that the identified LS-3 CD4-helper epitope contributes to the overall antibody responses induced, as partial attenuation was observed when binding of this epitope to HLA IAb was knocked out.

iv. Engineered Fusion of LS-3 CD4+ Helper Epitope to CA09 HA-RBD Enhanced Anti-HA Antibody Responses Induced by DNA or Protein Vaccines

As it has determined that CD4+ T-cell help provided by the LS-3 epitope could contribute to the overall humoral responses, the next step is to determine if it can serve as a “molecular adjuvant” to enhance induced antibody responses by engineering fusion of the epitope with a different model antigen, CA09 HA-RBD. Either an LS3KO epitope, an LS3 epitope, or a PADRE epitope (AKFVAAWTLKAAA) was incorporated on the N-terminus of CA09 HA-RBD, downstream of the IgE leader sequence, which served as a secretion tag for the antigen (FIG. 4A). LS3KO-CA09 served as a better control to which responses induced by LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 would be compared, as the impact of N-terminal peptide fusion on the immunogenicity of an antigen would be considered (protein sequences of LS3KO-CA09 and LS3-CA09 only differed at four residues). First, it was confirmed that DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 could induce CD4+ T-cell responses to the incorporated LS-3 epitope. Indeed, by ICS analysis, C57BL/6 mice immunized with DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 but not those immunized with LS3KO-CA09 were capable of mounting CD4+ T-cell responses to their respective incorporated epitope (FIG. 4B and FIG. 4C). The finding was similarly validated by IFNγ ELIspot analysis (FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B). Next, CD4+ T-cell responses induced by DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 were compared to those induced by the LS3 and PADRE epitopes, respectively. Both LS-3 and PADRE elicited potent CD4+ T-cell responses upon vaccination of DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 in C57BL/6 mice, with similar levels of cytokine responses induced as determined by ICS (FIG. 4D and FIG. 4E) and IFNγ ELIspot assays (FIG. 7C and FIG. 7D). Additionally, by ICS analysis, epitope-specific polyfunctional T-cell responses were also similar between the LS-3 and PADRE epitopes (FIG. 4F).

Next, the humoral responses induced by two vaccinations of DNA-encoded LS3KO-CA09, LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 were compared to the humoral responses induced by CA09 HA over time. By ELISA analysis, both DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 improved induced binding antibody responses to HA as compared to DNA-encoded LS3KO-CA09 prior to and after the boost, with approximately 9.5-fold and 5-fold improvements observed for DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 respectively (FIG. 4G). Most importantly, it was observed that functional antibody responses, as measured by the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titers, were significantly improved for DNA-encoded LS3-CA09 relative to LS3KO-CA09 after the second vaccination (with a mean titer of 126 versus 21, respectively) (FIG. 4H). DNA-encoded PADRE-CA09, on the other hand, did not significantly improve the HAI titers relative to DNA-encoded LS3KO-CA09 after the first or the second vaccination (FIG. 4H).

Whether the observed phenomenon can be generalized to other routes of vaccination, such as protein vaccines, was further determined. C-terminal His-tagged LS3KO-CA09, LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 were expressed in vitro and purified from Expi293F cell transfection supernatant with nickel column. C57BL/6 mice were subsequently immunized with 10 μg recombinant protein LS3KO-CA09, LS3-CA09 or PADRE-CA09 co-formulated with RIBI each time. Humoral and cellular responses induced by protein vaccination were observed to be considerably lower than those induced by DNA vaccinations (FIG. 4G and FIG. 4I), such that three protein vaccinations at Weeks 0, 4 and 8 were required to observed robust humoral responses. Epitope-specific CD4+ T-cell responses induced by protein vaccinations were considerably lower than that by DNA vaccines. However, CD4+ T-cell responses directed at the LS-3 epitope could still be observed by ICS (FIG. 7E) and by IFNγ ELIspot (FIG. 7F and FIG. 7G). CD4+ T-cell responses to PADRE were not observed (FIG. 7E, FIG. 7F and FIG. 7G), likely as a result of the sensitivity of detection of the assays. Regardless, it was observed that HA-binding antibody titers induced by both protein LS3-CA09 and PADRE-CA09 vaccinations were significantly higher (100% sero-conversion in both groups) relative to protein LS3KO-CA09 vaccination, for which 20% sero-conversion (1/5 mice) was observed (FIG. 4I). Lastly, similar to what was observed for DNA-vaccinations, protein LS3-CA09 vaccination induced significantly improved HAI titers post-dose 3 relative to protein LS3KO-CA09 vaccination (with a mean titer of 169 versus 32, respectively). Protein PADRE-CA09 vaccination, on the other hand, was not observed to induce significantly improved HAI titers (FIG. 4J). Taken together, the data suggest that the engineered fusion of the identified LS-3 CD4+ helper epitope to a model antigen can significantly enhance humoral responses to that antigen. Additionally, the incorporation of the LS-3 epitope performed as well as, if not better than, the incorporation of the PADRE epitope in terms of adjuvating humoral responses.

3. Discussion

The importance of CD4+ T-cell help in facilitating antibody maturation and class-switching is well-established (Crum-Cianflone and Wallace, 2014). AIDS patients with low CD4+ T-cell count cannot mount effective antibody responses with vaccination. Similarly, laboratory animals that receive transient CD4+ T-cell depletion also cannot develop strong antibody responses to a foreign gene or an antigen (Duperret et al., 2018; Wise et al., 2020). Both secreted soluble cytokine factors as well as surface-displayed ligands from Tfh cells are indispensable to the survival, AID-dependent somatic hypermutation and proliferation of GCB cells, and are necessary for the generation of antibody-secreting plasma cells and long-lived memory B cells (Crotty, 2015).

While larger antigenic protein domains likely harbor CD4+ T-cell epitopes that can be restricted by the host HLA alleles for the induction of Tfh responses, carbohydrate and peptide vaccines are intrinsically minimalistic and unlikely to contain potent CD4+ T-cell help epitopes (Astronomo and Burton, 2010). Additionally, domain minimization has now become an increasingly important approach in protein engineering and vaccinology, as researchers begin to appreciate the importance of focusing elicited B-cell responses to certain target epitopes by designing protein mini-domain devoid of distracting immunodominant surfaces (van der Lubbe et al., 2018; Yassine et al., 2015). However, these mini-proteins contain fewer overlapping peptides, and therefore statistically will be less likely to harbor potent HLA-restricted CD4+ helper epitopes. As such, several studies have explored conjugation of these carbohydrate, peptide, or mini-protein vaccines to carrier proteins, including but not limited to KLH, tetanus toxin and HbsAg. Induction of more potent antibody responses was observed in many cases (Jin et al., 2017; Marini et al., 2019). However, this approach may undermine the core motivations behind domain minimization by introducing a host of immunodominant distracting surfaces which may skew induced humoral responses.

Conjugation of the antigen with a shorter conserved CD4+ T-cell epitope may offer a promising alternative to conjugation with a whole protein carrier. As the CD4+ T-cell epitope is intrinsically shorter (12-16 amino acid long), it will less represent a distracting immunodominant surface (Hemmer et al., 2000). Additionally, they may alternatively be used as short linker to connect different protein domains, such as to cross-link a nanoparticle protein scaffold with a target antigen to promote vaccine antigen self-assembly (He et al., 2018). Fusing antigen with the PADRE epitope has been demonstrated to improve antibody responses in several animal studies and has also been explored in the clinic (clinical trials NCT01972737 and NCT02264236) (Rosa et al., 2004). Additional CD4+ helper epitopes have also been mapped and explored. For example, a recent study reported that co-delivery of MPER antigen with a Leishmania major derived HLA I-Ad helper CD4+ T-cell epitope (LACK) in liposomes can improve induced anti-MPER antibody responses (Elbahnasawy et al., 2018).

This study reported that the identification and characterization of a novel HLA I-Ab epitope LS-3 from the LS domain of Aquifex aeolicus, which is also the protein domain that can be used to scaffold the assembly of a 60-mer nanoparticle. In silico analysis predicted the LS-3 epitope to have high binding affinity to several common human HLA alleles, particularly HLA-DRB1*07:01, HLA-DRB1*15:01 and HLA-DRB5*01:01. Epitope knockout experiment demonstrated that CD4+ T-cell help provided by this epitope could indeed contribute to the overall antibody responses. Finally, engineered genetic fusion of the LS-3 epitope with a different target antigen CA09 HA-RBD (LS3-CA09) significantly increased binding and HAI antibody titers elicited by protein and DNA vaccinations to HA as compared to the control antigen, LS3KO-CA09. The study demonstrates the potential utility in this epitope as a “molecular adjuvant” to increase vaccine-induced antibody responses, in both preclinical murine studies as well as possibly in translational vaccine trials.
