Abstract
A series of recombinant DNA constructs and a method is disclosed for use in immunological therapy in general; and in disrupting T cell receptor (TCR), human leukocyte antigens (HLA) class I and NKG2D (Natural-Killer Group 2, member D) ligand expression in particular, with the effect of producing highly compatible autologous universal T cells for further genetically engineering for allogeneic administration. A Universal T (UT) construct is provided and used, comprising a TCR antibody fragment fused to a transmembrane domain (TMD) and ER retention domain of adenovirus early region 3 glycoprotein E3-19k (E3/19K) (TCR-E3/19K RD). The Universal T (UT) construct can hijack ERAD machinery to arrest TCR and HLA molecules in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and facilitate their translocation into the cytoplasm for ubiquitination and degradation by proteasomes.
