Abstract: Provided herein are gene activation and interference targets for exhaustion/dysfunction-resistant t cell products and uses thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for modifying the genome of human T cells. Further, the compositions and methods described herein can be used to generate human T cells with altered specificity and functionality, while limiting the side effects associated with T cell therapies. Provided herein is a human T cell that heterologously expresses one or more polypeptides. In some embodiment, the one or more polypeptides, for example, two or more polypeptides, are encoded by a nucleic acid construct inserted into the TCR locus of the cell.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for modifying an endogenous cell surface protein in a human cell by inserting a heterologous nucleic acid sequence in a target region of a nucleic acid encoding the endogenous cell surface protein.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for editing the genome of a human T cell. In some embodiments, a heterologous T cell receptor (TCR)-? chain and a heterologous TCR-? chain are inserted into exon 1 of a TCR subunit constant gene in the genome of the T cell.

Abstract: Provided herein are genetically modified T cells that exhibit increased proliferation compared to wild-type T cells when stimulated, methods of generating such T cells, and methods of using the T cells for the treatment of a disease such as cancer.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for editing the genome of a cell. In some embodiments, a nucleotide sequence of at least 200 nucleotides in length is inserted into a target region in the genome of a cell.

Abstract: Methods for editing the genome of cells such as T cells and hematopoietic stem cells are disclosed. The methods include inserting a nucleic acid sequence of an exogenous partial open reading frame (ORF) of an autosomal dominant gene (e.g., CTLA4) into an intronic target region of an endogenous autosomal dominant gene in the cell, wherein the endogenous autosomal dominant gene comprises one or more disease-causing mutations; the exogenous partial ORF of the autosomal dominant gene is free of disease-causing mutations; and insertion of the exogenous partial ORF of the autosomal dominant gene into the intronic target region results in a modified autosomal dominant gene that encodes a protein which is free of disease-causing mutations. Methods for treating haploinsufficiency and methods for increasing gene editing efficiency are also described.

Abstract: Described herein are regulators of T cells as well as methods of modulating such T cell regulators, and methods of identifying new agents that modulate the T cell regulators. Modification of such T cell regulators in lymphoid and/or myeloid cells can provide lymphoid/myeloid cells that can be administered to subjects in need thereof, for example, subject suffering from immune disorders, cancer and other diseases and conditions.

Abstract: The disclosure provides compositions and methods for modifying a target nucleic acid. In some embodiments, a composition can include a targetable nuclease, a DNA-binding protein, and a donor template comprising a homology directed repair (HDR) template and one or more DNA-binding protein target sequences. In some embodiments, a composition can include a Cas protein, one or more single guide RNAs (sgRNAs), and an anionic polymer.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for editing the genome of a cell. In some embodiments, a nucleotide sequence of at least 200 nucleotides in length is inserted into a target region in the genome of a cell.

Abstract: Provided herein are genetically modified T cells that exhibit increased proliferation compared to wild-type T cells when stimulated, methods of generating such T cells, and methods of using the T cells for the treatment of a disease such as cancer.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a cargo delivery fusion polypeptide comprising an endosomolytic polypeptide and a cell penetrating polypeptide; and compositions comprising the cargo delivery fusion polypeptide. The present disclosure also provides methods of delivering a cargo into a target eukaryotic cell, using a composition comprising an amphiphilic polypeptide.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for modifying T cells. The disclosure is based, in part, on the use of sgRNA lentiviral infection with Cas9 protein electroporation (SLICE), to identify regulators of IL2RA, IL-2, CTLA4, arnd FOXP3 in effector T cells. IL2RA, IL-2, CTLA4, and FOXP3 are key genes in immune regulation that have been implicated in autoimmune disease and cancer. Therefore, modulating expression of these genes in T cells, for example, effector T cells or regulatory T cells, could have therapeutic applications.
