Abstract:
Compositions for modulating the expression of a protein in a target cell comprising at least one RNA molecule which comprises at least one modification 5 conferring stability to the RNA, as well as related methods, are disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention provides, among other things, methods of treating ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, including administering to a subject in need of treatment a composition comprising an mRNA encoding an ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) protein at an effective dose and an administration interval such that at least one symptom or feature of the OTC deficiency is reduced in intensity, severity, or frequency or has delayed onset. In some embodiments, the mRNA is encapsulated in a liposome comprising one or more cationic lipids, one or more non-cationic lipids, one or more cholesterol-based lipids and one or more PEG-modified lipids.
Abstract:
Sequences of a serotype 8 adeno-associated virus and vectors and host cells containing these sequences are provided. Also described are methods of using such host cells and vectors in production of rAAV particles.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are novel compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and related methods of their use. The compounds described herein are useful, e.g., as liposomal delivery vehicles to facilitate the delivery of encapsulated polynucleotides to target cells and subsequent transfection of said target cells, and in certain embodiments are characterized as having one or more properties that afford such compounds advantages relative to other similarly classified lipids.

Sequences of a serotype 8 adeno-associated virus and vectors and host cells containing these sequences are provided. Also described are methods of using such host cells and vectors in production of rAAV particles.
Abstract:
This invention provides a range of translatable messenger UNA (mUNA) molecules. The mUNA molecules can be translated in vitro and in vivo to provide an active polypeptide or protein, or to provide an immunization agent or vaccine component. The mUNA molecules can be used as an active agent to express an active polypeptide or protein in cells or subjects. Among other things, the mUNA molecules are useful in methods for treating rare diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a microorganism having an improved ornithine-producing ability, in which the biosynthetic pathway of arginine form ornithine is blocked, the intracellular glutamate level is increased, and the biosynthetic pathway of ornithine from glutamate is enhanced, and a method for producing ornithine using the microorganism.
