Abstract: The present invention provides a method of engineering a cell, comprising the steps of introducing into the cell: i) a site-directed nuclease which is capable of cleaving a target nucleotide sequence at the 3′-end of Intron 1 of a Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Associated Protein 4 gene (CTLA4); and ii) a nucleic acid construct which comprises a nucleic acid sequence comprising one or more of exon 2, exon 3 and exon 4 of CTLA4, or a sequence with at least 70% identity to exon 2, exon 3 and/or exon 4 of the CTLA4 gene, and 5′- and 3′-homology arms, wherein each of the 5′ and '3 homology arms is essentially complementary to a sequence flanking the target nucleotide sequence at the 3′-end of Intron 1 of CTLA4.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of enhancing object detection in a digital image of known underlying structure using pre-processed images with underlying structure and with any objects detected and bounding boxes inserted over the objects, the method comprising: extracting or generating images with the underlying structure but without objects detected as negative images; extracting images with the underlying structure and with an object detected as positive images; inputting pairs of negative and positive images through a feature extraction section in a neural network to extract feature vectors of the images; contrasting feature vectors of each pair of positive and negative images and thereby provide a contrast vector and gating the result to form an attention vector; processing the attention vector and the feature vector of the positive image to produce an output.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of S. pneumoniae protein antigens, such as NanA, PluA and Sp0148, as carriers for immunogenic S. pneumoniae capsular polysaccharide. This may be useful for example in glycoconjugate vaccines able to generate a protective immune response against multiple capsuler serotypes. Glycoconjugates, vaccine compositions and methods of manufacture and use are provided.

Abstract: There is described an AAV capsid protein having an amino acid sequence which has at least 98% identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3 or at least 94% identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4. Also described is a pharmaceutical composition, an AAV capsid and a viral particle comprising the capsid protein, a recombinant AAV vector comprising a nucleotide sequence which encodes for the capsid protein, and a host cell and a transgenic animal comprising the capsid protein or the vector. In addition, there is described a method of transferring a nucleic acid of interest into a mammal comprising introducing a recombinant AAV vector into the mammal, wherein the recombinant AAV vector comprises a gene of interest which is encapsidated into a capsid comprising the capsid protein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high throughput targeted proteomics-based method for identifying and quantifying one or more binding molecules in a biological fluid of an individual. The present invention involves the use of a plurality of bait molecules to capture the binding molecules. The invention uses proteomics techniques, such as mass spectrometry, for the identification and quantification of the binding molecules. The methods of the invention can be used to identify and quantify antibodies produced by an individual, and proteins expressed by an individual, following exposure to antigens, such as viral antigens, particularly coronavirus antigens and more particularly SARS-CoV-2. Exposure may be via vaccination or following natural infection. The methods of the invention can be used to identify and quantify molecules which bind to a range of proteins of interest, such as autoantigens and neoantigens, as well as to viral vectors.

Abstract: A method of determining the perceptual load of a human brain. The perceptual load is induced by a predetermined task carried out by the human. The method includes the steps of: measuring with a functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) sensor device a metabolic activity of the human brain while the task is carried out and determining the perceptual load as a function of a measured change in metabolic activity. The invention further relates to a method of determining the level of stimulus perception corresponding systems.
