Description

The anti-CD19 CAR lentiviruses are replication incompetent, HIV-based, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to transduce most mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. These viruses transduce the ScFv portion of anti-CD19 (clone FMC63) linked to 2nd generation CAR (Chimeric Antigen Receptor), containing CD8 hinge, 4-1BB and CD3ζ signaling domains (Figure 1).

Figure 1. (A) Schematic of the lenti-vector used to generate the anti-CD19 CAR lentivirus. This vector is a SIN vector. No mammalian selection marker is present. (B) Construct diagram showing components of the anti-CD19 CAR.

Note: This product transduces the same anti-CD19 CAR construct (CD19 ScFv-CD8-4-1BB-CD3ζ) as other available anti-CD19 CAR Lentiviruses (BPS Bioscience # 78600, 78602 and 78775), but differ in key aspects. Please see the table below.

BPS Bioscience # Self-Inactivation (SIN) Selection Marker
78600 no puromyci
78601 yes no
78602 yes puromycin
78775 yes eGFP

Background

CD19 (also known as Cluster of Differentiation 19, B-lymphocyte surface antigen B4, or CVID3) is a glycoprotein expressed at the surface of B lymphocytes through most phases of B cell maturation. It is strictly required for B cell terminal differentiation. Mutations in the CD19 gene cause severe immune-deficiency syndromes associated with impaired antibody production such as CVID3 (common variable immuno-deficiency 3). The majority of B cell malignancies express normal to high levels of CD19, making it a nearly ideal target for cancer immunotherapy. Blinatumomab, a CD19/CD3 bi-specific T cell engager (BiTE) has been approved for relapsed/refractory B precursor ALL (Acute lymphoblastic leukemia) and CD19 was the target of the first approved CAR-T cell therapy. Studies of CD19 function and expression profiles will continue to broaden our knowledge and support broader applications in cancer therapy.
