Provided herein are compositions, methods, and uses involving antibodies that immunospecifically bind glycosylated forms of MUC16, a tethered mucin protein. Also provided herein are uses and methods for managing, treating, or preventing disorders, such as cancer.

Disclosed are compositions, methods, and kits for modifying DNA within cells as well as compositions and methods for modifying gene expression in a cell. In particular, the invention generally relates to compositions, methods, and kits for DNA editing using single-stranded DNA. Compositions and methods for modifying gene expression using artificial microRNAs (amiRNA) are also contemplated.

Provided is an application of a non-IGF1R-binding substance in the prevention and/or treatment of inflammatory diseases. Specifically, provided is use of a non-IGF1R-binding substance. The non-IGF1R-binding substance is used for preparing a composition or formulation, and the composition or formulation is used for preventing and/or treating inflammatory diseases.

Transgenic non-human animal models for cellular senescence are provided herein, as are methods and materials for making and using the transgenic non-human animal models. For example, a p21-Cre mouse model for cellular senescence is provided herein.

The present disclosure provides a promoter having at least the core components of a duck retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) promoter, as well as expression constructs having the duck RIG-I promoter operably linked to a gene product-encoding nucleic acid (e.g., an avian RIG-I protein), and recombinant host cells containing the duck RIG-I promoter, e.g., in such expression constructs. The present disclosure also provide animals genetically modified to have a gene encoding a duck RIG-I promoter operably linked to a gene product-encoding nucleic acid (e.g., an avian RIG-I protein, such as a duck RIG-I protein).

An auxin-inducible degron system kit that controls degradation of a target protein in a non-plant-derived eukaryotic cell, the kit containing a first nucleic acid that encodes a mutant TIR1 family protein having a mutation at an auxin-binding site, an auxin analog that has an affinity to the mutant TIR1 family protein and a second nucleic acid that encodes a degradation tag containing at least a part of an Aux/IAA family protein and having an affinity to a complex of the mutant TIR1 family protein and the auxin analog.

Described herein are methods of prolonging or reactivating organogenesis in a subject in need thereof (e.g., a subject that has impaired organ function such as a prematurely born infant). The methods comprise increasing the expression or activity of Lin28A or Lin28B proteins, inhibiting the expression or activity of let-7 family microRNAs, and/or inhibiting the expression or activity of Dis3L2 exonuclease.

Provided is an invention that is based on the novel function of a transcription factor RP58 in cells of the central nervous system. The present invention relates to: a transgenic non-human animal capable of increasing or decreasing the expression of the transcription factor RP58 in cells of the central nervous system of a non-human animal in the nascent stage and/or during and after the developmental stage; and a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment or prevention of brain dysfunction, or behavioral disorder, or a disease related thereto, wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises a transcription factor RP58 protein, or a gene encoding the transcription factor RP58; etc.

The present invention is in the field of a compound for use as a medicament for treatment of tRNA deficiencies in living cells, a dosage comprising said compound, and an in vivo and in vitro method for treatment of tRNA deficiencies, as well as for prevention, mitigation of symptoms, and regeneration of cells.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method of conveniently producing a genetically modified non-human mammal with high efficiency using a CRISPR-Cas9 system and particularly a production method whereby gene knock-in can be achieved with high efficiency regardless of the gene size. The method of producing a genetically modified non-human mammal comprises introducing a Cas9 protein, a crRNA fragment comprising a nucleotide sequence complementary to a target DNA region, and a tracrRNA fragment into a non-human mammalian oocyte to genetically modify the target DNA.
