  • Publication number: 20210054376
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention described herein concern the incorporation of a FOXP3 cDNA (e.g., full-length human codon-optimized cDNA) into a FOXP3 gene or a non-FOXP3 locus so as to provide constitutive or regulated FOXP3 expression in a primary human CD34+ cells or cells derived from edited CD34+ cells. In some embodiments, guide RNA sequences that are directed to FOXP3, AAVS1, or other candidate loci are used for CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene regulation, and gene delivery cassettes for HDR based gene-modification are provided.

  • Patent number: 10407672
    Abstract: According to particular exemplary aspects, DNA target site binding and cleavage properties of native, variant or modified homing endonucleases (HE) (e.g., LAGLIDAG (LHE), HNH, His-Cys Box, GIY-YIG, I-SspI-type, and fusions, muteins or variants thereof) in solution are recapitulated on the cell surface (e.g., as assessed by flow cytometric analysis) to provide for novel cells expressing one or more cell surface HEs (e.g., expressing one or more HE binding and/or cleavage specificities), novel cell libraries, and high-throughput methods for assessing target site binding, target site cleavage. The rapid analysis of HE and LHE-DNA interactions on the cell surface with concurrent sorting options provides for high-throughput library screening affording rapid identification, analysis and isolation of novel HEs or LHEs having novel sequence specificities.
