  • Publication number: 20160017295
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20160003843
    Abstract: The invention described herein features methods and compositions for generating an antibody specific to post-translational modifications (PTMs). The methods and compositions provide a renewable synthetic antibody strategy that installs a novel motif-specific hot spot into an antibody scaffold that functions independently of the surrounding scaffold. Such antibodies provide a rapid and robust development of antibodies for signaling, diagnostic, and therapeutic applications.
