Abstract: The present disclosure provides, among other things, a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector comprising an AAV8 or AAV9 capsid and a codon-optimized sequence encoding a human iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S) enzyme. The disclosure also provides a method of treating a subject having Hunter syndrome (MPS II), comprising administering to the subject in need thereof a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector comprising an AAV8 or AAV9 capsid, and a promoter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence that encodes iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S), and wherein administering results in an increase in I2S enzymatic activity in the subject.

Abstract: Disclosed are Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) antigens including a recombinant RSV F protein stabilized in a prefusion conformation. Also disclosed are nucleic acids encoding the antigens and methods of producing the antigens. Methods for generating an immune response in a subject are also disclosed. In some embodiments, the method is a method for treating or preventing a RSV infection in a subject by administering a therapeutically effective amount of the antigen to the subject.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for regulating the specificity and activity of immune effector cells for use in immunotherapy. In one embodiment, the invention provides a type of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) wherein the CAR is termed a “NKR-CAR” which is a CAR design comprising a component of a receptor naturally found on natural killer (NK) cells. In one embodiment, the NK receptor includes but is not limited to a naturally occurring activating and inhibitory receptor of NK cells known as a killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR).
