BUA Application Details (BU041135-03) Summary Principal Investigator : PI Department : Laboratory Supervisor : Title : Status : Expiration date : OEH&S Specialist : Application Type : NIH Level : McManus, Michael T. Diabetes Center Michael T. McManus Lentiviral RNAi Core Approved 04/01/2018 Herminigildo Briones Continuation Section III-D-1 Study involves Recombinant DNA materials or technology: Yes Infectious Agents (IA): No Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP): Yes Biological Toxins: No Select Agents : No Generate Genetically-Modified Animals: No Animals: No Shipping of biological materials: Yes Describe the goals of your research and an overview of the experimental design to attain these goals. Among the 3 billion base pairs of human genome sequence, there are at least 30-40 thousand protein-encoding genes, but the function of at least half of them remains unknown. The use of lentiviral vectors and other viral agents (including MMLV, MSCV, and AAV) are powerful tools for systematically deciphering the functions and interactions of these thousands of genes. Their ability to transduce both dividing and non-dividing cell types allows for their application in both overexpression and RNAi experiments. The overall goal of our research is to provide high titer virus to researchers in the Immunology and Microbiology Departments and the Diabetes Center and members of the UCSF community. This involves: • Packaging of both shRNA, gRNA, and cDNA expressing self-inactivating lentiviral vectors, MMLV, AAV, and other viral agents upon request. • Titration of produced virus by flow cytometry. • Providing a resource for protocols and safety regarding work with infectious reagents. All labs for which we will provide lentiviral or other vectors will have active BUAs that include these biomaterials. No significant changes have occurred since our last BUA.

Associated Authorizations/Protocols Regulated Materials Approval Number Legacy Number Status Expiration Date Recombinant DNA Research I am transferring genetic material into a microbiological vector or any organism in order to clone the gene, create a stable genetic alteration, obtain the expression product(s) of the gene(s), or silence/knockdown the target gene(s). The genetic material is not from the same species of organism or vector that is receiving it. I am introducing foreign genetic material using a vectorless system (e.g. electroporation, lipofection). The genetic material being cloned or expressed is from a Risk Group (RG) 3 agent. The genetic material being cloned or expressed is from a Risk Group (RG) 4 agent. The genetic material being cloned or expressed consists of more than two-thirds of the genome of a RG 1 or RG 2 Eukaryotic virus. The genetic material being cloned or expressed encodes a known or reasonably suspected Oncogene or Teratogen. The vector I am using for introduction of foreign genetic material into the host is, or is derived from, a RG 3 agent. The vector I am using for introduction of foreign genetic material into the host is a RG 1 or RG 2 Eukaryotic virus which contains more than two-thirds of its viral genome, or more than two-thirds of another Eukaryotic virus' genome. The vector I am using for introduction of foreign genetic material into the host is being used in conjunction with a helper virus. The host into which I am introducing foreign genetic material is a cell or organism other than E. coli strain K12; S. cerevisiae, S. uvarum, B. Subtilis, or B. licheniformis? I will be making more than 10 liters, in one container, of any culture. I am using synthetic nucleic acid molecules, including those that are chemically or otherwise modified but can base pair with naturally occurring nucleic acid molecules and/or cells, organisms, and viruses containing such molecules. The gene(s) I am transferring into a microorganism encode for antibiotic resistance that the organism would not acquire naturally, and the resistance could compromise the use of the antibiotic to control disease caused by the receiving organism in human medicine, veterinary medicine or agriculture. The gene(s) I am transferring into a microorganism for biosynthesis of a toxin lethal to vertebrates with an LD50 of less than 100 nanograms per kilogram body weight (100ng/Kg). I am transferring recombinant DNA, or DNA or RNA derived from recombinant DNA into one or more human research subjects. No Yes No No No No No No No Yes No No No No No Describe experimental procedures that will involve the rDNA listed here. You should tell the IBC (Institutional Biosafety Committee) not only what you will do but also how you will do it. Step-by-step descriptions of procedures are BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc 2 not necessary, but focus should be placed on procedural steps where personnel are vulnerable to exposure to potentially hazardous recombinant materials. We will use lipid transient transfection methods to introduce multiple DNA plasmids containing the different viral genes necessary for propagating virus along with the shRNA/gRNA/gene of interest into HEK 293t cells. The viral genomes are broken into separate plasmids and several replication genes have been removed to ensure viral particles are replication incompetent. We will harvest and concentrate virus and other viral agents 48-72 hours post-transfection using syringes, filters, and ultracentrifugation methods. To titer the virus we will infect the appropriate host cell (e.g. HEK 293t cells for lentivirus) with a dilution of virus and then use flow cytometry to calculate the titer values. We will not be doing actual gene insertions/creation of gene constructs for other labs, or any other rDNA procedures (i.e. siRNA or other gene targeting, sitedirected mutagenesis, etc.). Please note that the viral vectors listed in the Vectors table are produced by the Core facility for researchers. The genes listed in the "Genes" table are those potentially packaged, and the hosts listed in the "Hosts" table include the hosts that the vectors can infect. Vectors Vector Name Vector Type Risk Group Amphotropic Used in Animals 1 Replication Incompetent Yes Adeno-associated Virus (AAV) Avian Retrovirus Lentivirus Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) various Viral Yes Yes Viral Viral Viral 1 2 2 Yes Yes Yes No Yes Yes No No No Plasmid 1 No No No Vector Name: Adeno-associated Virus (AAV) Risk Group: 1 Vector Type: Viral Replication incompetent: Yes Causes human disease: No Ecotropic: No Amphotropic: Yes Used in Animals: Yes Please indicate which generation of this viral vector you will use. We will provide serotypes AAV1-6, and primarily package serotype 2 (the most commonly used AAV). If you derive a new vector from wild-type virus, or similarly use an early generation vector (for example, first generation), please describe the method by which you will verify replication incompetence. Specify the frequency of testing. N/A Provide a detailed description of this vector and safety features of its design (such as which generation of viral vector, gene deletions, etc.): AAV are infectious human viruses with no known disease association. Replication of AAV has an extremely low efficiency without the presence of helper virus (such as adenovirus). Similar to retrovirus such as HIV, packaging recombinant virus entails separating the replication and capsid genes and provided them transiently in trans (in a pRep/Cap plasmid), where only the 2 inverted terminal repeats of AAV genome are left and packaged into virion; hence, the likelihood for a recombinant AAV to convert to a replicative competency is highly improbably and some consider theoretically impossible. Recombinant AAV constructs in which the transgene does not encode either a potentially tumorigenic gene product or a toxin molecule and are produced in the absence of a helper virus is in most cases be handled at BSL1. BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc 3 Vector Name: Avian Retrovirus Risk Group: 1 Vector Type: Viral Replication incompetent: Yes Causes human disease: No Ecotropic: Yes Amphotropic: No Used in Animals: No Please indicate which generation of this viral vector you will use. If you derive a new vector from wild-type virus, or similarly use an early generation vector (for example, first generation), please describe the method by which you will verify replication incompetence. Specify the frequency of testing. Provide a detailed description of this vector and safety features of its design (such as which generation of viral vector, gene deletions, etc.): Retroviral infection requires the specific interaction between the envelope glycoprotein on the surface of the virus and the cognate receptor on the surface of the cell. The ASLV family of viruses has five primary envelope types: A, B, C, D, E. These recognize three distinct cellular receptors: A, C, and B/D/E. In order for the virus to be propagated, your cells must have the appropriate receptor and cannot be sequentially infected with two ASLVs expressing the same envelope. Mammalian cells do not have functional receptors for the standard ASLV envelopes on their surface. Vector Name: Lentivirus Risk Group: 2 Vector Type: Viral Replication incompetent: Yes Causes human disease: Yes Ecotropic: No Amphotropic: Yes Used in Animals: No Please indicate which generation of this viral vector you will use. 3rd generation If you derive a new vector from wild-type virus, or similarly use an early generation vector (for example, first generation), please describe the method by which you will verify replication incompetence. Specify the frequency of testing. N/A Provide an explanation of the hazards to humans and describe the possible modes of transmission: Lentivirus has potential to cause human disease if there were an exposure. We have placed a page describing safety considerations at the viracore website (http://viracore.ucsf.edu/content/biosafety). Provide a detailed description of this vector and safety features of its design (such as which generation of viral vector, gene deletions, etc.): Only "third generation" lentiviral vectors, such as the pSico or LentiLox vectors available from the UCSF Sandler Lentiviral RNAi Core. These systems separate vector and packaging functions onto three or four or more plasmids and they include additional safety features (e.g., they do not encode Tat, which is essential for replication of wild-type HIV-1). Vector Name: Risk Group: Vector Type: Replication incompetent: Causes human disease: Ecotropic: BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) 2 Viral Yes Yes Yes 4 Amphotropic: Yes Used in Animals: No Please indicate which generation of this viral vector you will use. MMLV (and other murine retroviruses) can be packaged as ecotropic or amphotropic. Here we primarily package the ecotropic as it offers a specificity for murine cells. In these cases, packaging can be performed safely with pCL-ECO (a first generation murine packaging vector). In very rare cases we may package MMLV with amphotropic coats (I think we needed to do this once or twice in the last 8 years). In these rare cases we will use the replication safety assay to monitor for potential conversion. If you derive a new vector from wild-type virus, or similarly use an early generation vector (for example, first generation), please describe the method by which you will verify replication incompetence. Specify the frequency of testing. N/A Provide an explanation of the hazards to humans and describe the possible modes of transmission: Non-replicating MMLV retroviruses, if packaged with amphotropic envelope or VSV-G envelope,can infect human cells and integrate into the cell's genome. These viruses are non-replicating, so cannot spread after the initial infection. Nonetheless, we will use a replication safety assay if such a virus is packaged with the amphotropic coats. These are described in the UCSF Sandler Lentiviral RNAi Core’s MMLV MSDS SOP, found on our Core website: http://viracore.ucsf.edu/biosafety, and appended. The vectors used will generate only non-replicating viral particles. Provide a detailed description of this vector and safety features of its design (such as which generation of viral vector, gene deletions, etc.): We may employ the non-replicating pMX MMLV retroviral backbone vector which has been used by many labs for more than a decade. The non-replicating pMX-based retroviral vector and related pMIGR1 retroviral vector are described in Exp Hematol. 31:1007, 2003 and Blood 92:3780, 1998. The enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP)-expressing retroviral vector, MigR1, was constructed by three-way ligation with the 5-kb EcoRI-Sal I cleaved MSCV2.2, the 0.5-kb IRES containing EcoRI-Nco I fragment from pCITE, and the 0.8-kb Nco I-Sal I fragment containing a GFP with solubility and red shift mutations. The pMX vector harbors 5′ long terminal repeat (LTR) and the extended packaging signal derived from MFG followed by a multi-cloning site (MSC) suitable for cDNA library construction and 3′ LTR of MMLV. The pMX and pMIG vectors are commonly packaged in Phoenix-Eco or Phoenix-Amp cell line, which are 293T cells stably transfected with the MMLV gag and pol genes on one plasmid vector and the envelope (ecotropic or amphotrophic) gene on a separate plasmid vector. Having these elements on separate plasmids, with the gag and pol stably integrated into the 293T packaging cells guards against the creation of replicating viruses.

The most obvious gene group that may be of potential concern are the tumor supressor families, in which RNAi knockdown- if accomplished in a cell containing a 'second hit' or driver mutation, may yield cells that proliferate in an oncogenic manner. We address safety considerations below. Provide an assessment of the hazardous potential of cloning, expressing or inhibiting the target of these DNA/RNA segments that encode substances that are immunogenic, (proto)oncogenic, teratogenic, toxigenic or enhance pathogenicity: Over-expression of some genes or silencing of tumor suppressor genes can be proto-oncogenic.

These will be used to generate lentivirus and for flow cytometry. They will be handled as BLS2 using appropriate BBP procedure. Describe the experimental procedures where personnel are vulnerable to exposure to potential bloodborne pathogens. Describe your source(s) for human materials, how they are packaged and transported to your lab, and provide the CHR approval number for their use or a statement that the CHR has exempted this work. Add CHR approval number to the 'Associated Auth/Protocol' page. Established cell line derived from human tissue, such as 293T. These cells were immortalized decades ago and used in a large number of labs and are available from many sources. We have obtained these from the ATCC and UCSF Cell Culture Facilityvia cryovials. Cells will be transported with a leak-proof secondary container. Describe the hazardous potential and the risk to humans from accidental exposure to BBP (e.g. needle stick/sharps injury; exposure to eyes, mucosa, wounds by aerosol, splash or spill, etc): It should be noted that handling human cells entails risk of exposure to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and/or HIV. Technically the BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc 8 pathological transfer of cell lines could occur in a needle stick/sharps injury, exposure to eyes, mucosa, wounds by aerosol, splash or spill to an immunocompromised individual. In addition, if a contaminating agent was present, the individual need not be immunocompromised. Confirm that you will adhere to the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, use Universal Precautions and work at Biosafety Level 2 containment, including: - Use certified biosafety cabinet for all manipulations of BBP - Require use of appropriate PPE, i.e., lab coats or gowns, gloves, eye protection, etc. - Ensure that I and all personnel listed on the BUA will complete annual online BBP training and triennial online Biosafety training - Offer Hepatitis B vaccination to all personnel listed on the BUA - Ensure that all vaccination records and declination forms will be maintained by the Occupational Health Service If any of the requirements cannot be met, describe alternative or additional methods by which experiments will be conducted safely: The above requirements will be met. Confirm that, in case of accidental exposure to biohazardous materials, you will follow this SOP: Personnel who are exposed to biohazardous materials will immediately wash the site of exposure (wound, eye, mucosa, etc.) with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes and then immediately call the Needlestick and Exposure Hotline at 415-3537842 for all UCSF campuses, except SFGH and VA Medical Center call 469-4411. If the SOP will not be followed, describe how exposure will be managed: SOP will be followed Standard Procedures Decontamination Procedures: I will use 0.5% sodium hypochlorite (a 1:10 dilution of household bleach) to decontaminate equipment and work surfaces. In locations where bleach would cause corrosion, I will decontaminate with 70% ethanol if effective against the agent(s) used. Local Shipping and Transport of Infectious Materials: I will follow the procedures outlined in the UCSF Infectious Agents Shipping and Transport Policy. This flyer must be posted on orange paper in BSL 2 location(s) in the laboratory. Pre-printed flyer(s) are available from OEH&S Specialists. In brief, all infectious materials transported to and from my laboratory will be enclosed in a primary container with sealed lid or top, which will then be enclosed in a secondary leak-proof, non-breakable container (such as a Coleman cooler) appropriately labeled with the biohazard symbol. Any specimens transported to and from off-campus satellite facilities will be escorted by a responsible lab employee. Storage: All infectious materials to be stored will be clearly labeled with the universal biohazard symbol, as will the storage space (e.g. freezer, refrigerator, liquid nitrogen tank). Bloodborne Pathogens: I will follow the Standard Precautions and procedures outlined in the Bloodborne Pathogens training. Human Organ and Cell Culture: If I am using human organ or cell cultures (primary cultures, cell strains, cell lines), I will follow the procedures outlined in the UCSF Cell Culture Guidelines. In addition, I will handle all such cultures under BSL2 conditions and in accordance with the Bloodborne Pathogen Standard unless the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) has specifically approved a lower standard of containment. Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes If you will use alternative procedures for any of the above, provide a brief description of the procedures that you will follow and justification for deviating from the standard procedure. Standard Procedures II Biohazardous Spills: I will follow the UCSF Biological Spill Emergency Procedures. This flyer must be Yes BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc 9 posted on orange paper in BSL 2 location(s) in the laboratory. Pre-printed flyer(s) are available from OEH&S Specialists. In brief, in case of a spill or accident involving employee exposure, I will contact the 24-hour Needlestick and Exposure Hotline at 353-7842 at all campuses except for Bloodborne Pathogens exposures at SFGH and VA Medical Center, call 469-4411. Disposal: I will follow the UCSF Medical Waste Policy and Procedures flyer: This flyer must be posted on Yes orange paper in BSL 2 location(s) in the laboratory. Pre-printed flyer(s) are available from OEH&S Specialists. In brief: - Liquid biohazardous waste must be decontaminated by mixing one volume of undiluted bleach with nine volumes of liquid biohazardous waste (final dilution of 1:10) for 30 minutes. This can be drain-disposed if not mixed with chemical or radioactive material. - Solid biohazardous waste must be disposed in red biohazardous waste bags, which must be placed inside a hard-sided waste container with a tight-fitting lid at all times when container is not in active use. If you will use alternative procedures for any of the above, provide a brief description of the procedures that you will follow and justification for deviating from the standard procedure. Safe Sharps For the procedures in your lab that use needles or blades, if the sharp cannot be replaced with a blunt (for example, a needle replaced with a cannula), determine whether the needle or blade can be replaced with a safer version. I am unable to adopt a safer sharp for legitimate reasons as provided in the BBP Standard. Specify the sharps and/or safe sharps you will use and provide a brief description of all procedures involving sharps. Aside from glass Pasteur pipettes used in tissue culture, we do not routinely use sharps. We will opt to use safe shares whenever possible; for example, we use scissors. We sometimes have the need to excise slices of gels for purifying DNA fragments. This procedure require a long-edged flat surface with a very thin razor type material. Although double-sided razors offer the ideal material, we have opted for singleedge razors for safety reasons. In terms of safety performance, and objective product evaluation criteria, the we do not believe the available alternative safe devices are more effective in preventing exposure incidents. Confirm that you will follow the UCSF Proper Handling and Disposal Procedures for Sharps flyer. This flyer must be posted on orange paper in your laboratory. Pre-printed flyer(s) are available from OEH&S If you will use alternative handling procedures, provide a brief description of the procedures that you will follow and justification for deviating from the standard procedure. We will follow the UCSF Proper Handling and Disposal Procedures for Sharps. Aerosol Safety Do any experimental procedures or use of equipment (such as cell sorters, centrifuges, shakers, sonicators, etc.) associated with your research produce aerosols? Cell Sorters: Centrifuges Sonicators Robotic Pipetters: Vortexers: Containment of Aerosols and/or Splashes. Confirm that you will follow the Standard Procedures for Containment of Aerosols and/or Splashes: All manipulations having a potential for generating aerosols (e.g., homogenization, centrifugation, sonification) will be conducted in a properly certified biosafety BU041135-Y03-V21-2015-03-19-Final.doc Yes Yes Yes No Yes No Yes 10 cabinet or in a centrifuge equipped with sealed rotor heads or safety cups. Screw-cap centrifuge tubes will be no more than three-fourths filled. If you will use additional procedures and/or equipment that may generate aerosols and/or alternative methods to achieve containment, please describe here: We will follow BBP Training procedures. Our FACS Array machine is located in the ViraCore and is equipped to minimize exposure to aerosols as the samples are analyzed within a closed space in the machine. All tubes in the centrifuge are capped when spinning and handled (opened) in the tissue culture hood. Shipping Have you shipped/will you ship any biological materials related to this study?

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Applicant comments: When the materials are requested at that time we will determine if permits are needed to import or export the material. All shipping will be done by lab personnel with certified training in shipping procedures. We may ship, or have shipped to us, biological materials related to recombinant DNA, human/mouse cell lines, and/or replication deficient virus. We anticipate that our lab will be involved in a number of different collaborative relationships where we will prepare competent virus for infection of human or mouse cell lines; in most of these cases, transfer will occur between our lab and the neighboring labs at UCSF. Such shipments would be performed in accordance with the UCSF Infectious Agents Transport Guidelines. Furthermore, all lab personnel responsible for shipping any biohazardous materials will attend "Safe Shipping of Biohazards" training.
