Creative Biolabs has been a world-famous scientific partner in the field of antibody discovery and cell-based immunotherapy for years. Now, our scientists are proud to offer advanced Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon system as an important non-virial transfection system for CAR-T gene delivery.
Background
Viral vectors play important roles in traditional CAR-T cell therapy nowadays. Although they are promising, imitations still exist. Firstly, using viral vector carries a risk of insertional oncogenesis or clonal dominance. Meanwhile, when administered directly in vivo, viral vectors may cause unwanted immunogenicity. Moreover, it is cumbersome and costly for the manufacturing of viral vector since living cells are required and the quality control is complicated as well as the downstream processing. Therefore, we bring out the SB transposon system as an alternative of viral vectors to circumvent some of these limitations.
Introduction of SB Transposon System
SB transposon system is a wonderful synthetic DNA transposon which is composed of two components, a transposase (360 amino acids) and a transposon. It is designed to precisely integrate defined DNA sequences into a TA dinucleotide of vertebrate animals. It is a simple, cut-and-paste manner to translocate DNA from one site to another. As shown in Fig 1, plasmid 1 is loaded with a transgene (the CAR gene), named transposon, surrounded by inverted repeats (IRs) that contain short direct repeats (DRs). Plasmid 2 encodes the enzyme (transposase) which can recognize the sequences from plasmid 1 and cut the transposon out of the plasmid 1. Then the CAR gene will be successfully delivered into the targeted cell (T cell) cytoplasm and inserted randomly into TA dinucleotide base pairs of the recipient DNA sequence. By this means, stable integration and reliable long-term expression of the CAR genes in T cells is possible and attractive.
