  • Publication number: 20200291363
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to methods and compositions for transferring a genetic circuit from one prokaryotic cell (“donor cell”) to another prokaryotic cell (“recipient cell” or “target cell” which are used interchangeably herein). More specifically, the present disclosure relates to prokaryotic donor cells comprising (i) a genetic circuit of interest and (ii) one or more expressed transcriptional repressor proteins and the use of said donor cells in the efficient transfer of the genetic circuit into a prokaryotic recipient cell. The genetic circuit includes nucleic acid sequences encoding a RNA molecule or protein of interest.

  • Publication number: 20200277337
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to bacterial delivery vehicles for use in efficient transfer of a desired payload into a target bacterial cell. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to bacterial delivery vehicles with desired host ranges based on the presence of a chimeric receptor binding protein (RBP) composed of a fusion between the N-terminal region of a RBP derived from a lambda-like bacteriophage and the C-terminal region of a different RBP.

  • Publication number: 20200121768
    Abstract: The invention relates to the improvement of endonuclease-based antimicrobials by blocking DNA repair of double-strand break(s) (DSB(s)) in prokaryotic cells. In this respect, the invention especially concerns a method involving blocking DNA repair after a nucleic acid has been submitted to DSB, in particular by a Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) associated programmable double-strand endonuclease. The invention particularly relates to the use of an exogenous molecule that inhibits DNA repair, preferably a protein that binds to the ends of the double-stranded break to block DSB repair. The invention also relates to vectors, particularly phagemids and plasmids, comprising nucleic acids encoding nucleases and Gam proteins, and a pharmaceutical composition and a product containing these vectors and their application.
