Abstract
The present invention provides a nucleic acid molecule encoding a specific binding molecule capable of binding an h TERT peptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 when the peptide is presented by a Class II Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), wherein the specific binding molecule comprises a first polypeptide comprising a variable region of an α-chain and a second polypeptide comprising a variable region of a β-chain of a T-cell receptor (TCR), and wherein: (a) the variable region of an α-chain comprises CDR sequences CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 which respectively comprise the amino acid sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 2, 3 and 4; and (b) the variable region of a β-chain comprises CDR sequences CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 which respectively comprise the sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 5, 6 and 7. Recombinant constructs, vectors and host cells comprising such nucleic acid molecules are also provided, as are specific binding molecules encoded by such nucleic acid molecules. The present invention has utility in the treatment of cancer.
