Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a new plasmid DNA purification protocol making it possible to produce a large quantity of DNA of pharmaceutical quality acceptable for use in humans. It also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the DNA thus obtained and its use for the transfer of a nucleic acid into a host cell.
- the invention is of particular interest for gene therapy perspectives.
- genes into a given cell is the very basis of gene therapy.
- This new technology makes it possible to envisage the treatment of serious illnesses for which conventional therapeutic alternatives are ineffective or even non-existent and also concerns genetic illnesses (hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, myopathy, etc.) that acquired (cancer, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome AIDS, ).
- the most practiced approach consists in using a viral vehicle to introduce the therapeutic nucleic acid into the cell to be treated and, in particular, retroviral and adenoviral.
- viruses have developed sophisticated mechanisms to cross cell membranes, escape degradation at the level of lysosomes and make their genome penetrate into the nuclei in order to ensure the expression of the therapeutic gene.
- the viral approach has its limitations, in particular a limited cloning capacity, a potential production of viral particles competent for replication capable of dissemination in the host organism and the environment, a risk of insertional mutagenesis in the case of vectors. retrovirals and, in the case of adenoviral vectors, induction of immune and inflammatory responses in the host which hamper repeat therapy.
- Non-viral vectors More and more gene transfer methods use non-viral vectors.
- One of the most used is to deliver the therapeutic nucleic acid by means of synthetic vectors, such as cationic lipids which spontaneously interact with the nucleic acid to form positively charged complexes capable of fusing with the anionic cell membranes and causing the penetration of the nucleic acid they transport (see for example Behr, Bioconjugate Chemistry (1944 5: 382)).
- a so-called biolistic method by bombardment of cells with metal microprojectiles covered with DNA has recently been used in the context of an anti-AIDS trial (Woftendin et al., 1996, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 93, 2889-2894).
- an even simpler approach can also be envisaged by direct administration of naked DNA, in particular in the context of diseases affecting the muscles by intramuscular injection.
- These non-viral methods generally use a plasmid vector carrying the therapeutic gene and the elements necessary for its expression.
- the subject of the present invention is a process for preparing a plasmid DNA from a wet cellular biomass harvested after fermentation of a producer cell comprising said plasmid DNA, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: a ) alkaline lysis of the resuspended biomass, after resuspension of the wet cellular biomass b) acidification at high ionic strength, c) elimination of insolubles, d) reduction of endotoxins and ribonucleic acids (RNA), e) gel filtration chromatography, and f) conditioning.
- Plasmid DNA denotes an extrachromosomal cellular element formed from a generally circular DNA molecule capable of autonomous replication in a producer cell (the cell in which it is amplified).

Proteins, RNA and DNA are denatured, including plasmid DNA, the two homologous strands of which remain tangled, unlike genomic DNA. It may be advantageous to carry out the alkaline lysis in the presence of a detergent and, preferably, an anionic surfactant. The choice of base and surfactant is not limited.
