摘要:
The present disclosure describes improved adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors for gene therapy applications in the treatment of glycogen storage disease, particularly glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD-Ia). Described are recombinant nucleic acid molecules, vectors and recombinant AAV that include a G6PC promoter/enhancer, a synthetic intron, a G6PC coding sequence (such as a wild-type or codon-optimized G6PC coding sequence), and stuffer nucleic acid sequence situated between the G6PC promoter/enhancer and the intron, as well as between the intron and the G6PC coding sequence. The recombinant AAVs disclosed herein exhibit highly efficient liver transduction and are capable of correcting metabolic abnormalities in an animal model of GSD-Ia.
摘要:
The invention relates to an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector comprising a nucleic acid construct for the expression of a glucose-6-phosphatase-a (G6Pase-a) in a cell, the construct comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the G6Pase-a, wherein the nucleic acid sequence encoding the G6Pase-a is operably linked to a human alpha-1 antitrypsin (hAAT) promoter, a cell transformed with the vector of the invention, a composition comprising the vector or the cell of the invention, and the use thereof.
摘要:
Modified G6PC (glucose-6-phosphatase, catalytic subunit) nucleic acids and glucose-6-phosphatase-α (G6Pase-α) enzymes with increased phosphohydrolase activity are described. Also described are vectors, such as adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors, and recombinant AAV expressing modified G6Pase-α. The disclosed AAV vectors and rAAV can be used for gene therapy applications in the treatment of glycogen storage disease, particularly glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD-Ia), and complications thereof.
摘要:
The invention relates to suitable screening strategies for evaluating various candidate promoters for differential gene expression during the propagation and production phases of a fermentation process. The invention also relates to recombinant host cells that comprise identified promoter nucleic acid sequences and methods for producing fermentation products employing the same.

摘要:
The present disclosure provides antigen presenting polypeptide comprising a TGF-β MOD that is reversibly masked and acts as a TGF-β receptor agonist. The antigen presenting polypeptides comprising one or more chemical conjugation sites for incorporation of, for example, Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) associated epitope containing polypeptides. The antigen-presenting polypeptides and their T1D-associated epitope conjugates are useful for modulating the activity of a T-cell, and accordingly, the present disclosure provides methods of modulating activity of a T-cell in vitro and in vivo as a method of treatment of T1D.
摘要:
The present invention provides a novel antisense oligonucleotide and a composition for preventing or treating glycogen storage disease type Ia. The present invention provides an antisense oligonucleotide which hybridizes with a pre-mRNA sequence derived from a region including at least one of a base at position 42911000, a base at position 42911004, and a base at position 42911005 in a base sequence of human chromosome 17 of GRCh38/hg38 and has activity to inhibit aberrant splicing of pre-mRNA of c.648G>T variant G6PC.
摘要:
The invention relates to G6PC2-encoded beta cell surface markers, methods of identifying and obtaining a culture cells comprising fully differentiated beta cells. Also contemplated is a method of sorting such cells, isolated cells and compositions thereof.
