Recombinant human replication-deficient adenovirus comprising a modified nucleic acid encoding the Marburg virus envelope glycoprotein

Abstract

The present invention relates to a nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 for encoding a Marburg virus envelope glycoprotein, and to a human replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus capable of expressing the nucleotide sequence and a preparation method therefor, as well as an application thereof in the preparation of a vaccine against Marburg virus disease. The vaccine uses an E1 and E3 deleted replication-deficient human type-5 adenovirus as a vector, and HEK293 cells integrating an adenovirus E1 gene as a packaging cell line, and a protective antigen gene carried is a codon-optimized Marburg virus Angola strain envelope glycoprotein gene. After codon optimization of the envelope glycoprotein gene, significant expression of envelope glycoprotein can be detected in transfected cells.
