  • Patent number: 11845951
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for gene manipulation for treating or improving a retinal dysfunction disease or a method using the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a composition for gene manipulation including a guide nucleic acid capable of targeting a retinal function-forming gene and a method of treating or improving a disease caused by retinal dysfunction by artificially manipulating and/or correcting a retinal function-forming gene using the same.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: December 19, 2023
    Assignees: TOOLGEN INCORPORATED, SEOUL NATIONAL UNIVERSITY R&DB FOUNDATION, SEOUL NATIONAL UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
    Inventors: Dong Woo Song, Jung Min Lee, Un Gi Kim, Jeong Hun Kim, Dong Hyun Jo
  • Publication number: 20230287461
    Abstract: Provided is a platform for expressing a protein of interest by artificially manipulating the liver, and more particularly, to a platform for alleviating or treating a genetic disorder or improving a body function by inducing expression by inserting a transgene (e.g., a therapeutic gene) which can function or be expressed normally, into a high-expression secretory gene, instead of a disease gene which functions or is expressed abnormally. The high-expression secretory gene includes the HP or APOC3 gene. The transgene includes one that is highly expressed using a promoter in a hepatocyte genome and is secretory out of the cell.

  • Publication number: 20230190889
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition for gene manipulation for artificially manipulating a blood coagulation inhibitory gene present in the genome of a cell to regulate a blood coagulation system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a composition for gene manipulation, which includes a guide nucleic acid capable of targeting a blood coagulation inhibitory gene, and an editor protein. Also, the present invention relates to a method of treating or improving coagulopathy using the composition for gene manipulation for artificially manipulating a blood coagulation inhibitory gene.
