The invention also relates to PA
variants, and/or compositions thereof,
which are useful for eliciting an
immunogenic response in mammals,
particularly humans, including
responses that provide protection
against, or reduce the severity of,
infections caused by B. anthracis. The
vaccines claimed in this application are
intended for active immunization for
prevention of B. anthracis infection, and
for preparation of immune antibodies.
Application: Improved B. anthracis
vaccines.
Developmental Status: Phase I clinical
studies are being performed.
Inventors: Joseph Shiloach (NIDDK),
Stephen Leppla (NIDCR), Delia Ramirez
(NIDDK), Rachel Schneerson (NICHD),
John Robbins (NICHD).
Publication: DM Ramirez, et al.
Production, recovery and
immunogenicity of the protective
antigen from a recombinant strain of
Bacillus anthracis. J Ind Microbiol
Biotechnol. 2002 Apr;28(4):232–238.
Patent Status: U.S. Provisional
Application No. 60/344,505 filed 09
Nov 2001 (HHS Reference No. E–023–
2002/0–US–01); U.S. Patent Application
No. 10/290,712 filed 08 Nov 2002 (HHS
Reference No. E–023–2002/0–US–02).
Licensing Status: Available for
exclusive or nonexclusive licensing.

Collaborative Research Opportunity:
The National Institutes of Health is
seeking statements of capability or
interest from parties interested in
collaborative research to further
develop, evaluate, or commercialize
methods of preparing Bacillus anthracis
protective antigen (PA) from a cell or
organism, particularly a recombinant
cell or microorganism, for use in
vaccines. Please contact Rochelle S.
Blaustein, J.D., at 301/451–3636 or

additional information.
Chimeric Gag Pseudovirions
Description of Technology: The
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is
the causative agent of acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
The HIV virion basically consists of a
viral core and envelope. The core
consists predominantly of gag- and polencoded proteins and the viral RNA.
Expression of recombinant Gag
precursor proteins can lead to assembly
and budding of virus-like particles
(pseudovirions). The production of Gagbased pseudovirions in mammalian and
insect cell systems using recombinant
virus vectors provides a novel
technology for engineering recombinant

protein-based particulate vaccines for
HIV and other viruses. The
incorporation of additional viral or
cellular, peptides and polypeptides may
be advantageous in vaccine
preparations, since they may contain
antigenic epitopes that may play a role
in inducing protection from infection or
disease.
The subject invention provides
chimeric nucleic acids comprising a
retroviral gag sequence, a target nucleic
acid sequence derived from a nucleic
acid encoding a fusion partner, and a
frame shift site. Expression of the
chimeric gene cassette results in
packaging the fusion partner into the
Gag pseudovirion. Suitable fusion
partners can be derived from any
protein of interest which has a
biological activity or which elicits a
cellular or humoral immune response.
Applications: HIV vaccines and/or
therapeutics.
Development Status: Early stage.
Inventors: Gregory J. Tobin (NCI/
SAIC), et al.
Patent Status: U.S. Patent No.
6,099,847 issued 08 Aug 2000 (HHS
Reference No. E–105–1996/1–US–01).
