Gene therapy DNA vector based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 carrying the HFE therapeutic gene as per CI. 1, wherein the constructed gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE as per CI. 1 has the ability to efficiently penetrate into human and animal cells due to the limited size of GDTT1.8NAS12 vector part not exceeding 2600 bp and express the HFE therapeutic gene cloned to it.

Gene therapy DNA vector based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 containing the coding region of the HFE therapeutic gene as per CI. 1, wherein the constructed gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE as per CI. 1 is comprised of nucleotide sequences that don't constitute antibiotic resistance genes, viral genes, or elements of viral genomes, which ensures its safe use in gene therapy of humans and animals.

A method of use of the gene therapy DNA vector based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 carrying the HFE therapeutic gene as per CI. 1 in order to treat diseases associated with disorders of functions of HFE protein responsible for regulation of iron metabolism in humans, to treat diseases associated with impaired expression of HFE gene, including those due to insufficient expression of HFE gene and/or HFE gene mutations, including haemochromatosis, that involves transfection of the cells of patient or animal organs and tissues with the gene therapy DNA vector carrying the therapeutic gene based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12, and/or injection of autologous cells of the patient or animal, transfected with the selected gene therapy DNA vector carrying the therapeutic gene based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 into the organs and tissues of the patient or animal, and/or injection of the gene therapy DNA vector carrying the therapeutic gene based on the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 into the organs and tissues of the same patient or animal, or a combination of the indicated methods.

A method of production of strains for construction of the gene therapy DNA vector as per CI. 1 in order to treat diseases associated with disorders of functions of HFE protein responsible for regulation of iron metabolism in humans, to treat diseases associated with impaired expression of HFE gene, including those due to insufficient expression of HFE gene and/or HFE gene mutations, including haemochromatosis, that involves obtaining electrocompetent cells of the Escherichia coli strain JM 110-NAS with subsequent electroporation of those cells with the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE. After that, the cells are seeded to Petri dishes with a selective medium containing yeastrel, peptone, 6% sucrose, and 10 μg/ml of chloramphenicol, and as a result, Escherichia coli strain JM110-NAS/GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE is obtained.

The Escherichia coli strain JM110-NAS/GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE obtained as per CI. 6 and carrying the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE for production thereof allowing for antibiotic-free selection during the production of the gene therapy DNA vector production in order to treat diseases associated with disorders of functions of HFE protein responsible for regulation of iron metabolism in humans, to treat diseases associated with impaired expression of HFE gene, including those due to insufficient expression of HFE gene and/or HFE gene mutations, including haemochromatosis.

A method of production on an industrial scale of the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12 carrying the HFE therapeutic gene as per CI. 1 in order to treat diseases associated with disorders of functions of HFE protein responsible for regulation of iron metabolism in humans, to treat diseases associated with impaired expression of HFE gene, including those due to insufficient expression of HFE gene and/or HFE gene mutations, including haemochromatosis, that involves production of the gene therapy DNA vector GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE by inoculating a culture flask containing the prepared medium with seed culture of the Escherichia coli strain JM110-NAS/GDTT1.8NAS12-HFE, then the cell culture is incubated in an incubator shaker and transferred to an industrial fermenter, then the fraction containing the target DNA product is extracted, multi-stage filtered, and purified by chromatographic methods.
