CA 2530248

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for direct transfection of organelle DNA in living cells. More particularly, the present disclosure is based on the use of viral vectors that contain localization signals specific for the target organelle. In one embodiment, a viral vector that has been modified to express on its surface a protein transduction domain and an organelle localization signal is provided. A viral vector comprising a desired recombinant DNA construct is introduced into cell culture or injected into an organism, wherein the viral vector transduces across the cellular membrane through its protein transduction domain and localizes to the cellular organelle by way of the organelle localization/targeting signal introducing the recombinant DNA into the interior of the organelle

La présente invention concerne des compositions et des procédés de transfection directe d'ADN d'organite dans des cellules vivantes. L'invention porte plus particulièrement sur l'utilisation de vecteurs viraux contenant des signaux de localisation spécifiques pour l'organite cible. Dans un mode de réalisation, un vecteur viral, ayant été modifié afin d'exprimer sur sa surface un domaine de transduction protéique et un signal de localisation d'organite, fait également l'objet de cette invention. Un vecteur viral comprenant un gène hybride d'ADN recombinant souhaité est introduit dans une culture cellulaire ou injecté dans un organisme, ledit vecteur effectuant une transduction à travers la membrane cellulaire en passant par le domaine de transduction protéique et se plaçant vers l'organite cellulaire au moyen du signal de localisation/cible de l'organite introduisant l'ADN recombinant à l'intérieur de l'organite.
