  • Patent number: 12281320
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides AAV capsid proteins comprising a modification in the amino acid sequence and virus vectors comprising the modified AAV capsid protein. The disclosure also provides methods of administering the virus vectors and virus capsids of the disclosure to a cell or to a subject in vivo. This disclosure also relates to recombinant adeno associated virus (rAAV) capsid proteins comprising one or more amino acid substitutions in the 5-fold region of the rAAV capsid that result in decreased reactivity to neutralizing antibodies, and their use as gene delivery vehicles.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 28, 2019
    Date of Patent: April 22, 2025
    Assignees: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, University of Florida Research Foundation, Incorporated
