  • IL-10 is often found in the form of a homodimer. Therefore, it may be advantageous to dimerise the IL-10 polypeptide attached to the soluble AHl.23 TCR. This can be achieved in a number of ways. For example, a single-chain version of the mature form human IL-10 homodimer can be fused to the TCR ⁇ prior to refolding with the TCR ⁇ chain.
  • mature form human IL-10 can be added in solution to either the TCR ⁇ Chain-IL-10 fusion proteins formed as described above prior to refolding with the soluble TCR ⁇ chain, or to the refolded ⁇ TCR-IL-10 fusion proteins.
  • an additional IL-10 molecule can be added to the TCR ⁇ chain as a fusion protein using the methods described in this example for the production of the TCR ⁇ chain - IL-10 fusion protein.
  • the two TCR chain-EL-10 fusion proteins can then be re-folded together using the methods described in Example 2.
  • complexes comprising two TCR, each containing a single IL-10 polypeptide linked to the TCR ⁇ chain, may be formed by homo-dimerisation of the IL-10 polypeptides. This would result in the formation of a complex of the following type:
  • Example 6 The methods detailed in Example 6 can also be used to produce fusion proteins containing the soluble AH-1.23 TCR linked to other polypeptides.
  • Synthetic genes including the mature human IL-4 DNA sequence detailed in Figure 11a and one of the 5' DNA extension sequences listed in Example 6 can be constructed and sub-cloned into the pGMT7 plasmid containing the AHl.23 TCR ⁇ chain, produced as described in Example 5 to form a DNA sequence encoding the TCR ⁇ chain-linker- IL-4 fusion proteins.
  • Synthetic genes including the mature human IL- 13 DNA sequence detailed in Figure 15a and one of the 5' DNA extension sequences listed in Example 6 can be constructed and sub-cloned into the pGMT7 plasmid containing the AH 1.23 TCR ⁇ chain, produced as described in Example 5 to form a DNA sequence encoding the TCR ⁇ chain-linker- IL-4 fusion proteins.
  • AH 1.23 TCR ⁇ chain - Linker- interleukin fusion proteins are then refolded with the AHl .23 TCR ⁇ chain using the methods detailed in Example 2 to produce the complete soluble AH 1.23 TCR-interleukin fusion protein.
  • Example 10 Thymidine incorporation assay for assessing the ability of AHl.23 TCR-IL-10 fusion proteins to cause Mast cell proliferation.
  • AH 1.23 TCR-IL-10 fusion protein compared to that seen in the absence of the fusion protein indicates that the IL-IO part of the fusion protein is active and causing D36 mast cell proliferation.

  • Synthetic genes comprising the DNA sequence encoding the soluble high affinity c61 NY-ESO TCR ⁇ chain detailed in Figure 23 a linked via a DNA sequence encoding a peptide linker to DNA encoding a number of imunomodulaotory agents were synthesised:

Briefly, DNA encoding the high affinity c61 NY-ESO alpha chain detailed in Figure 29a is synthesised and ligated into the pEX954 vector. (See Figures 21 and 22 for the DNA sequence and plasmid map of this vector respectively) The TCR beta chain fusion proteins described above are then refolded in the presence of the c61 NY-ESO TCR alpha chain.

Abstract

La présente invention, qui concerne des récepteurs de lymphocytes T ou 'TCR' (T-Cell Receptor), concerne plus particulièrement un TCR dimère (dTCR) ou un TCR monocaténaire (scTCR) associé à des agents thérapeutiques sélectionnés. Un premier segment de ce TCR est une séquence d'acides aminés correspondant à une séquence de domaine variable de la chaîne a du TCR, fusionnée à la terminaison N d'une séquence d'acides aminés correspondant à une séquence extracellulaire du domaine constant de la chaîne a du TCR. Un deuxième segment de ce TCR est une séquence d'acides aminés correspondant à un domaine variable de la chaîne ß du TCR fusionnée à la terminaison N d'une séquence d'acides aminés correspondant à une séquence extracellulaire du domaine constant de la chaîne ß du TCR. Les deux chaînes sont reliées par une liaison disulfure qui est d'un type sans équivalent dans les récepteurs des lymphocytes T aß endogènes. Dans le cas des scTCR considérés, on a également une séquence de liens reliant la terminaison C du premier segment à la terminaison N du second segment, ou réciproquement. La longueur de la séquence de liens et la position de la liaison disulfure sont telles que les séquences de domaines variables des deux segments sont mutuellement orientés sensiblement comme dans les récepteurs des lymphocytes T aß endogènes.
