Summary for Patent: 6,271,025
Title: | Modified factor VIII cDNA |
Abstract: | A modified Factor VIII cDNA is described comprising deletion of the B-domain and insertion of at least one truncated Factor IX intron 1 in the Factor VIII cDNA. The modified Factor VIII cDNA may be used for the production of a high yield of Factor VIII in vitro. The modified Factor VIII cDNA may be incorporated into a vector for gene therapy. |
Inventor(s): | Negrier; Claude (Irigny, FR), Plantier; Jean Luc (Grigny, FR) |
Assignee: | Aventis Behring GmbH (Marburg, DE) |
Application Number: | 09/526,935 |
Patent Claims: | 1. A modified Factor VIII cDNA comprising a deletion of the B-domain and insertion of the truncated Factor IX intron 1 (SEQ ID NO: 9) in one or more splice sites of the
Factor VIII cDNA, wherein said cDNA encodes a polypeptide having Factor VIII activity.
2. A modified Factor VIII cDNA comprising a replacement of the B-domain with nucleotides encoding four arginines and insertion of the truncated Factor IX intron 1 (SEQ ID NO: 9) in one or more splice sites of the Factor VIII cDNA, wherein said cDNA encodes a polypeptide having Factor VIII activity. 3. The modified Factor VIII cDNA as claimed in claim 1, wherein at least one insertion site of the truncated Factor IX intron 1 is chosen from Factor VIII intron 1 splice site, Factor VIII intron 12 splice site, and Factor VIII intron 13 splice site. 4. The modified Factor VIII cDNA as claimed in claim 2, wherein at least one insertion site of the truncated Factor IX intron 1 is chosen from Factor VIII intron 1 splice site, Factor VIII intron 12 splice site, and Factor VIII intron 13 splice site. 5. A vector comprising the modified Factor VIII cDNA of claim 1. 6. A vector comprising the modified Factor VIII cDNA of claim 2. |
