    摘要: Provided herein are methods and compositions useful in the screening and production of recombinant AAV (rAAV) that have structural fitness and potency in insect cells and mammalian cells. The disclosure provides a directed evolution system for generating and selecting rAAV variants based on their Kozak sequences. In some embodiments, methods disclosed herein comprise the use of modified Kozak sequences to express AAV2 VP1 proteins in amounts that are useful for producing rAAV particles having high infectivities and/or transduction efficiencies. In some embodiments, methods of producing, and methods of screening, rAAV are provided that comprise the steps of infecting insect cells by administering rAAV to these cells, recovering rAAV-integrated DNA from these insect cells, and transfecting recovered rAAV into mammalian cells. Also provided herein are nucleic acids comprising nucleotide sequences encoding novel Kozak sequences. Further provided herein are mammalian cells, baculovirus particles and insect cells comprising these nucleic acids.

    摘要: The invention provides efficient methods for combining single-substitution libraries of nucleic acids that span and encode proteins of interest and for selecting resultant mutant proteins after expression which have improved properties or characteristics. Specifically, the methods comprising synthesizing a single substitution library for each of a plurality of domains of a protein; expressing separately each member of each single substitution library as a pre-candidate protein; selecting members of each single substitution library which encode pre-candidate proteins which exhibit an improvement in the one or more predetermined characteristics to form a selected library; shuffling members or the selected libraries in a PCR to produce a combinatorial shuffled library; expressing members of the shuffled library as candidate proteins; and selecting mutant proteins which have improved properties or characteristics.

    摘要: A system of a recombinant bacteriophage library and a target of interest complex, wherein the recombinant bacteriophage peptide library includes a plurality of peptides expressed on the surface of recombinant bacteriophages wherein each recombinant bacteriophage includes (a) a pill protein; wherein each pill protein includes (b) a peptide or polypeptide involved in an intermolecular interaction, which differs by at least one amino acid from other peptides or polypeptides in the library; and (c) a modified protease cleavage site proximal to the peptide, wherein the modified protease cleavage site is the same in each bacteriophage, the modified cleavage site having a reduced binding affinity to a protease, as compared to a non-modified cleavage site, and wherein the target of interest complex includes a protease, a flexible linker attached to the protease, and a target of interest attached to the flexible linker, wherein the target of interest participates in an intermolecular interaction.

    摘要: The present disclosure encompasses oligonucleotide aptamers selectively binding a target glycosylated polypeptide or protein, and having biased affinity for the glycan through a boronic acid linked to a nucleosidic base of a nucleotide(s). The disclosure further encompasses methods for isolating an aptamer(s) selectively binding a target glycosylated polypeptide, where, from a population of randomized oligonucleotides that have at least one nucleotide having a boronic acid label linked to a base, is selected a first subpopulation of aptamers binding to the target glycosylated polypeptide or protein. This subpopulation is then amplified without using boronic acid-modified TTP, and amplification products not binding to a target glycosylated polypeptide or protein are selected. The second subpopulation of aptamers is then amplified using boronic acid-modified TTP to provide a population of boronic acid-modified aptamers capable of selectively binding to a glycosylation site of a target polypeptide or protein. Other aspects of the disclosure encompass methods for the use of the modified aptamers to detect glycosylated species of a polypeptide or protein.
