Abstract: Provided herein are methods for determining the serotype of a virus particle and/or or determining the heterogeneity of a virus particle (e.g., an AAV particle). In other embodiments, the invention provides methods to determine the heterogeneity of AAV particles. In some aspects, the invention provides viral particles (e.g., rAAV particles) with improved stability and/or improved transduction efficiency by increasing the acetylation and/or deamidation of capsid proteins.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for selecting a population of cells expressing a target polypeptide. In some aspects, the disclosure provides methods for sorting and selecting populations of transfected host cells based on their early expression of a selectable polypeptide. In certain embodiments, the sorting is performed using fluorescence-activated cell sorting or magnetic-activated cell sorting based on the selectable polypeptide. Such selection methods can be further utilized to generate clonal populations of producer cells, e.g. for large-scale manufacturing of a target polypeptide of interest.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for reducing undesired immune responses, such as anti-drug antibody (ADA) responses and other T- and/or B-cell-mediated immune responses, in patients by using treatment with methotrexate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to treatment of relapsing and progressive forms of multiple sclerosis using a humanized anti-human CD52 IgG1 monoclonal antibody.

Abstract: The invention relates to iRNA, e.g., double stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA), compositions targeting the Serpinc1 gene, and methods of using such iRNA, e.g., dsRNA, compositions to treat a bleeding event in a subject having a hemophilia (e.g., with or without inhibitors).

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for treating and improving b1osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) in a subject by administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an agent that binds and neutralizes transforming growth factor beta (TGF-?).

Abstract: Compositions and methods for treating disorders affecting motor function, such as motor function affected by disease or injury to the brain and/or spinal cord, are disclosed.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods to characterize preparations of recombinant viral particles using analytical ultracentrifugation. Recombinant viral particles include recombinant adeno-associated viral particles, recombinant adenoviral particles, recombinant lentiviral particles and recombinant herpes simplex virus particles. Variant species of recombinant viral particles including empty capsids and recombinant viral particles with variant genomes (e.g., truncated genomes, aggregates, recombinants) can be identified and quantitated. The methods can be used to characterize preparations of recombinant viral particles regardless of the sequence of the recombinant viral genome or the serotype of the recombinant viral capsid.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), wherein at least one polyalkylene glycol polymer is attached to a carbohydrate site of the TSH. Also described are compositions of mutated Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and at least one polyalkylene glycol polymer, wherein the mutated TSH comprises a TSH in which one or more amino acid residues has been substituted with cysteine residue, and the polyalkylene glycol polymer is attached to the mutated TSH at the site of the substituted cysteine residue. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising these TSH compositions and method of treating a thyroid condition in a patient in need thereof, by administering to the patient an effective amount of the pharmaceutical compositions are also described.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for batch production of producer cells using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). In some aspects, the disclosure provides a drug-selection-free method for batch production of producer cells using FACS. Such batch production methods and compositions can be further utilized to generate clonal populations of producer cells, e.g., for large-scale manufacturing of a polypeptide of interest.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and compositions for treating disorders or injuries that affect motor function and control in a subject. In one aspect, the invention a transgene product is delivered to a subject's spinal cord by administering a recombinant neurotrophic viral vector containing the transgene to the brain. The viral vector delivers the transgene to a region of the brain which is susceptible to infection by the virus and which expresses the encoded recombinant viral gene product. Also provided are compositions for delivery of a transgene product to a subject's spinal cord by administering a recombinant neurotrophic viral vector containing the transgene to the subject's brain.
