Abstract

The invention provides a nucleic acid construct comprising a sequence that encodes a human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) protein which is devoid of telomerase catalytic activity and of a nucleolar localization signal. The construct is useful triggering an immune response in a subject, against cells that overexpress telomerase, preferably dysplasia cells or tumor cells.
