Publication number: 20230323311Abstract: The present disclosure provides infectious recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) virions that comprise a variant capsid protein and a heterologous nucleic acid. The present disclosure further provides the variant adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid proteins (and/or a nucleic acid encoding the variant AAV capsid proteins), which confer to an infectious rAAV virion an increased resistance to human AAV neutralizing antibodies. The present disclosure further provides host cells comprising an infectious rAAV virion and/or a nucleic acid encoding a subject variant AAV capsid protein. The present disclosure further provides methods of delivering a heterologous nucleic acid to a target cell where the target cell is contacted with a subject infectious rAAV virion. The present disclosure further provides methods of delivering a gene product to an individual, the methods generally involving administering an effective amount of a subject rAAV virion to an individual in need thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: David V. Schaffer, Melissa A. Kotterman, Bum-Yeol Hwang, James T. Koerber

Publication number: 20230272016Abstract: The disclosure provides peptides and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. Such peptides can be useful, for example, in treating various human diseases such as immunological diseases. In some embodiments, the peptides are useful as immunotherapeutics for modulating regulatory and effector molecules of the mammalian immune system.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2021Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Bum-Yeol Hwang, Michi Izumi Willcoxon, Helena Kiefel, Toshihiko Takeuchi, Dhwani Haria, Michelle Lin, Roberta L. Hannibal, Joanna Catherine Ceolane Dreux, Jayamary Divya Ravichandar
