The present invention relates to a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) signalling system comprising; (i) a receptor component comprising an extracellular antigen-binding domain, a transmembrane domain and a intracellular first chemical inducer of dimerization binding domain 1 (CBD1); and (ii) an intracellular signalling component comprising a signalling domain and a second chemical inducer of dimerization binding domain 2 (CBD2); wherein CBD1 and CBD2 are capable of simultaneously binding to a chemical inducer of dimerization (CID); wherein, in the absence of the CID, binding of the antigen-binding component to antigen does not result in signalling through the signalling component; whilst, in the presence of the CID, the receptor component and the signalling component heterodimerize and binding of the antigen-binding domain to antigen results in signalling through the signalling domain.

The disclosure relates to polynucleotides comprising an open reading frame of linked nucleosides encoding human methylmalonyl-CoA mutase precursor, human methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM) mature form, or functional fragments thereof. In some embodiments, the disclosure includes methods of treating methylmalonic acidemia in a subject in need thereof comprising administering an mRNA encoding an MCM polypeptide.

Disclosed are methods of eliminating at least on target cell in a subject, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a composition comprising a plurality of immune cells, wherein each immune cell of the plurality expresses one or more chimeric ligand receptor(s) (CLR(s)) that each specifically bind to a target ligand on the at least one target cell, wherein specifically binding of the one or more CLR(s) to the target activates the immune cell, and wherein the activated immune cell induces death of the target cell. Exemplary target cells include, but are not limited to, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).

Provided herein are methods for cell therapy by modifying transfused cells to express an inducible caspase 9 protein, so that the cells may be selectively killed if the patient experiences dangerous side effects. Provided also within relates in part to methods for preventing or treating Graft versus Host Disease by modifying T cells before administration to a patient, so that they may be selectively killed if GvHD develops in the patient.
