    Abstract: In some aspects, the disclosure relates to compositions and methods for modulating (e.g., increasing and/or decreasing) bone mass in a subject. In some aspects, the disclosure provides isolated nucleic acids, and vectors such as rAAV vectors, configured to express transgenes that promote (e.g., increase) or inhibit (e.g., decrease) activity, differentiation, or function of certain types of bone cells, for example osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes, etc. In some embodiments, the isolated nucleic acids and vectors described by the disclosure are useful for treating disorders and conditions associated with increased bone mass (e.g., osteopetrosis) or decreased bone mass (e.g., osteoporosis).

    Abstract: The disclosure in some aspects relates to recombinant adeno-associated viruses having nuclease grafted to one or more capsid proteins. In some aspects, the disclosure relates to isolated AAV capsid proteins having terminally grafted nucleases and isolated nucleic acids encoding the same. Recent approaches to delivering nucleases to cells for gene editing have focused on delivering of expression vectors engineered to express the nucleases in target cells. However, these approaches have proved to be problematic in many instances due to genotoxicity resulting from to prolonged expression of gene editing system in vivo. To prevent such off-target genotoxicity due to prolonged presence of a gene editing system, several studies explored delivery of mRNA or protein instead of delivering the gene coding for the nucleases in cell culture.

    Abstract: In some aspects the disclosure provides compositions and methods for promoting expression of functional BCKDHA protein, which is the E1-alpha subunit of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid (BCAA) dehydrogenase complex, in a subject. In some aspects the disclosure provides compositions and methods for promoting expression of functional BCKDHB protein, which is the E1-beta subunit of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid (BCAA) dehydrogenase complex, in a subject. In some aspects the disclosure provides compositions and methods for promoting expression of functional BCKDHA and BCKDHB proteins, in a subject. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides methods of treating a subject having Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD).

    Abstract: The disclosure in some aspects relates to recombinant adeno-associated viruses having nuclease grafted to one or more capsid proteins. In some aspects, the disclosure relates to isolated AA V capsid proteins having terminally grafted nucleases and isolated nucleic acids encoding the same. Recent approaches to delivering nucleases to cells for gene editing have focused on delivering of expression vectors engineered to express the nucleases in target cells. However, these approaches have proved to be problematic in many instances due to genotoxicity resulting from to prolonged expression of gene editing system in vivo. To prevent such off-target genotoxicity due to prolonged presence of a gene editing system, several studies explored delivery of mRNA or protein instead of delivering the gene coding for the nucleases in cell culture.
