The present disclosure relates generally to promoters derived from the AAV anti-sense strand, their use in the expression of one or more heterologous coding sequences, and isolated polynucleotides, vectors and recombinant viruses comprising the promoters. The present disclosure also relates to enhancers derived from the AAV anti-sense strand, their use in increasing the expression of one or more heterologous coding sequences, and isolated polynucleotides, vectors and recombinant viruses comprising the enhancers.

Methods and compositions relating to the engineering of an improved protein with homocyst(e)inase enzyme activity are described. For example, there are disclosed modified cystathionine-γ-lyase (CGL) enzymes comprising one or more amino acid substitutions and capable of degrading homocyst(e)ine. Furthermore, provided are compositions and methods for the treatment of homocystinuria or hyperhomocysteinemia with homocyst(e)ine depletion using the disclosed enzymes or nucleic acids.

The present invention relates to a cancer-specific tumor antigen neoepitope represented by any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 184, an antigen-presenting cell loaded with the neoepitope, and a method for activating T cells for cancer treatment using the antigen-presenting cell. An antigen-presenting cell, that is, a dendritic cell, loaded with a cancer-specific tumor antigen epitope provided in the present invention enables rapid and effective induction of differentiation and proliferation of cancer antigen-specific T cells, preferably memory T cells, and the memory T cells thus activated can treat a cancerous or neoplastic condition or prevent recurrence, progression, or metastasis of cancer while avoiding the defense mechanism of cancer cells.
