The present invention relates to bacteriophage therapy. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel bacteriophages having a high specificity against Escherichia coli strains, their manufacture, components thereof, compositions comprising the same and the uses thereof in phage therapy.

The present disclosure relates to a method of in vitro engineering of nucleic acids. This disclosure further relates to in vitro engineering of viral genomes and to the improvement of viral properties by in vitro genomic engineering of viral genomes. Specifically, the disclosure relates to in vitro viral genomic digestion using RNA-guided Cas9, the assembly of a recombinant genome by the insertion of a DNA or RNA fragment into the digested viral genome and transformation of a host cell with the recombinant genome. This method also related to in vitro engineering for error correction of nucleic acids.

Provided is a platform for of the preparation of improved nucleic acid delivery vehicles, specifically, vehicles having an extended host recognition ability. Further provided are improved vehicles, compositions and uses thereof.

This disclosure describes non-naturally occurring protein scaffolds and methods of making and using the protein scaffolds. In one aspect, therefore, this disclosure describes a non-naturally occurring protein scaffold that includes a plurality of structural domains and a plurality of loop regions that include an amino acid sequence that varies from a naturally-occurring loop region by at least one amino acid deletion, substitution, or addition. Generally, the structural domain or domains can include at least one structure and/or at least one a helix.

The present invention relates to bacteriophage therapy. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel bacteriophages having a high specificity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, their manufacture, components thereof, compositions comprising the same and the uses thereof in phage therapy.

The presently-disclosed subject matter relates to an engineered T3 or T4 viral DNA-packaging motor connector protein that can be incorporated into a lipid membrane to form an electroconductive aperture, and which can be provided for other uses described herein.

The invention discloses a proteoliposome or a planar lipid bilayer membrane comprising a single protein manufactured using glycerol or polyethylene glycols (PEG) in the rehydration step. Products so prepared are useful for nanopore sensing technology, including ultrafast DNA sequencing and biomedical diagnostic applications.

More particularly, the present invention relates to novel bacteriophages having a high specificity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, their manufacture, components thereof, compositions comprising the same and the uses thereof in phage therapy.

The present invention relates generally to a gene expression system utilizing an alphavirus replicon and T7 promoter. The system is capable of expressing proteins in the cell cytoplasm without integrating the gene of interest into the genome of a host cell. The invention has a wide range of applications such as producing induced pluripotent cells and vaccines against pathogens and cancers.
