Description

Pre-made Lentivirus express the CAR construct of “3xFLAG-anti-h (HLA-A2)-ScFV (VH-VL)-CD8 hinge-4-1BB-CD3ζ”. It does not contain any selection marker, trying to minimize the marker’s possible immunogenicity.

This CAR construct, contains the N-term 3xFLAG taggedh (HLA-A2)-scFv [VH-(G4S)x4-VL]” recognition domain, linked to 4-1BB stimulatory domain, expressed under the enhance EF1a promoter. The lentivector’s core structure is represented by the scheme below. 

CAR Lentivector Scheme

HLA-A2 is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecule involved in presenting antigens to cytotoxic T cells. HLA-A2 is not a traditional target for CAR-T therapy, as CARs typically recognize cell surface antigens rather than MHC molecules. However, the context in which HLA-A2 is mentioned might involve its role in antigen presentation. CARs anti HLA is used to engineering human regulatory T cells (Tregs), and is a promising strategy to induce immune tolerance in transplants.  This CAR construct assembled the coding sequence of the human monoclonal anti-HLA-A2 antibody  (clone BB7.2 and SN607DB hybridoma) (see Reference1, Reference2).

4-1BB (CD137) is a surface glycoprotein present on activated T Lymphocytes, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. It binds to its ligand expressed on antigen-presenting cells (macrophages and activated B cells). It promotes T-cell antitumor activity. 4-1BB is one of the most widely studied co-stimulatory domain used in CAR design.

CD3ζ (T-cell receptor zeta) is expressed by T cells and NK cells. It together with T-cell receptor and CD3γ, δ, ε chain, forms the TCR-CD3 complex. CD3-zeta is the most commonly used activation component of CARs. It transmits an activation signal to the T cell after the antigen is bound. It can be coupled with additional co-stimulatory signaling for the complete activation.

Negative Controls:  To validate the specificity of the targeted CAR-T killing, you can use the negative control CAR lentivirus: the CAR-ctr5 that has the same lentivector backbone but removed the recognition domain.

Amount: 200 ul/vial at titer of 1×108 IFU/ml, concentrated lentivirus provided in PBS solution, premixed with 10x polybrene (60ug/ml), premade, ready to ship in dry-ice package.
