  • Publication number: 20230338477
    Abstract: Nucleic acid constructs and compositions that allow insertion of a multidomain therapeutic protein (e.g., GAA fusion protein) coding sequence into a target genomic locus such as an endogenous ALB locus and/or expression of the multidomain therapeutic protein (e.g., GAA fusion protein) coding sequence are also provided. The nucleic acid constructs and compositions can be used in methods of integration of a multidomain therapeutic protein (e.g., GAA fusion protein) nucleic acid into a target genomic locus, methods of expression of a multidomain therapeutic protein (e.g., GAA fusion protein) in a cell, methods of reducing glycogen accumulation, methods of treating Pompe disease or GAA deficiency in a subject, and method of preventing or reducing the onset of a sign or symptom of Pompe disease in a subject, including neonatal cells and subjects.

  • Publication number: 20230149563
    Abstract: Nucleic acid constructs and compositions that allow insertion of a FIX coding sequence into a target genomic locus such as an endogenous ALB locus and/or expression of the FIX coding sequence are provided. The nucleic acid constructs and compositions can be used in methods of introducing a F9 nucleic acid into a cell, methods of integration of a F9 nucleic acid into a target genomic locus, methods of expression of FIX in a cell, and in methods of treating hemophilia B or FIX deficiency in a subject.

  • Patent number: 11299732
    Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods for cleaving a DNA sequence in a cell. The methods involve comprising introducing into a cell a recombinant vector containing a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system. The system includes a CRISPR RNA (crRNA) targeted to a DNA sequence in the cell that is operatively linked to a promoter; and CRISPR-associated enzymes (Cas) 10, Cas6, and at least one Csm protein. The Cas 10 cleaves the DNA sequence only during transcription of the DNA sequence that is operatively linked to the promoter. Also provided are recombinant vectors for modifying cells, cells that contain the recombinant vectors and modifications introduced by them, and kits that include the modified vectors.
