Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to modified HPV particles that can be used therapeutically. Modified HPV particles may be used to deliver therapeutic agents, including siRNA molecules. Modified HPV particles may be used for the treatment of diseases or conditions of mucosal tissue, including HPV (human papilloma virus) infection and HPV-related tumors.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: expressing in a host cell nucleic acids encoding modified papillomavirus L1 proteins that comprise an FG loop corresponding to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 66; and isolating nanoparticles self-assembled from the papillomavirus L1 proteins. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cell is selected from bacterial cells, insect cells, yeast cells, and mammalian cells. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the cell is a mammalian cell. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the mammalian cell is a 293T cell. 5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the mammalian cell is a 293FT cell. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the modified papillomavirus L1 proteins are modified human papillomavirus L1 proteins. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the modified papillomavirus L1 proteins are chimeric HPV16/31 L1 proteins. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticles comprise the papillomavirus L1 proteins and papillomavirus L2 proteins. 9. A nanoparticle comprising a papillomavirus L1 protein comprising an FG loop comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 66. 10. The nanoparticle of claim 9 , wherein the nanoparticle comprises at least one heterologous compound. 11. The nanoparticle of claim 10 , wherein the at least one heterologous compound comprises at least one therapeutic agent. 12. The nanoparticle of claim 10 , wherein the at least one heterologous compound comprises at least one diagnostic agent. 13. The nanoparticle of claim 9 , wherein the nanoparticle is a self-assembled nanoparticle. 14. The nanoparticle of claim 9 further comprising papillomavirus L2 capsid protein. 15. A method of delivering to a subject the nanoparticle of claim 9 . 16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the nanoparticle comprises at least one heterologous compound. 17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the at least one heterologous compound comprises at least one therapeutic agent. 18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the at least one heterologous compound comprises at least one diagnostic agent. 19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the nanoparticle is a self-assembled nanoparticle. 20. A papillomavirus L1 protein comprising an FG loop comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 66.
