NUCLEIC ACID-GUIDED EDITING OF EXOGENOUS POLYNUCLEOTIDES IN HETEROLOGOUS CELLS
The present disclosure provides shuttle vectors for editing exogenous polynucleotides in heterologous live cells, as well as automated methods, modules, and multi-module cell editing instruments and systems for performing the editing methods.
INSERTABLE VARIABLE FRAGMENTS OF ANTIBODIES AND MODIFIED A1-A2 DOMAINS OF NKG2D LIGANDS
This application relates generally to the production of polypeptides having specific antigen-binding properties of Fv domains, for example, insertable variable fragments of antibodies, and modified α1-α2 domains of NKG2D ligands.
NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST OVARIAN CANCER AND OTHER CANCERS
The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

METHODS FOR PROCESSING NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULES
The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and kits for processing nucleic acid molecules. A method may comprise providing a template nucleic acid fragment (e.g., within a cell, cell bead, or cell nucleus) within a partition (e.g., a droplet or well) and subjecting the template nucleic acid fragment to one or more processes including a barcoding process and a single primer extension or amplification process. The processed template nucleic acid fragment may then be recovered from the partition and subjected to further amplification to provide material for subsequent sequencing analysis. The methods provided herein may permit simultaneous processing and analysis of both DNA and RNA molecules originating from the same cell, cell bead, or cell nucleus.
HLA-F-MODIFIED CELLS AND METHODS
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for cell transplantation therapy based on forced expression of an exogenous HLA-F protein in donor cells to be transplanted into a subject. In some embodiments, the donor cells express an exogenous chimeric HLA-F protein comprising an extracellular region comprising an HLA-F alpha 1 domain, an HLA alpha 2 domain, an HLA-F alpha 3 domain, a linker and a β2m protein.
T-CELL MASTER CELL BANK
The present invention provides a system for providing a T cell product, including a T cell master cell bank and/or a T cell working cell bank.
NY-ESO-1-CONTAINING ARTIFICIAL ADJUVANT VECTOR CELL FOR USE IN TREATMENT OF CANCER
An object of the present invention is to provide clinically applicable aAVC-NY-ESO-1 cells stably expressing NY-ESO-1 in order to use aAVC-NY-ESO-1 cells in treating patients having a NY-ESO-1-expressing cancer. The present invention provides, for example, a human-derived cell comprising a polynucleotide encoding CD1d and a polynucleotide encoding NY-ESO-1 or a fragment thereof, wherein the polynucleotide encoding NY-ESO-1 or a fragment thereof is operably linked to an inducible promoter.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CHARACTERIZING ANALYTES FROM INDIVIDUAL CELLS OR CELL POPULATIONS
The present disclosure provides methods of processing or analyzing a sample. A method for processing a sample may comprise hybridizing a probe molecule to a target region of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule), barcoding the probe-nucleic acid molecule complex, and performing extension, denaturation, and amplification processes. A method for processing a sample may comprise hybridizing first and second probes to adjacent or non-adjacent target regions of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., an RNA molecule), linking the first and second probes to provide a probe-linked nucleic acid molecule, and barcoding the probe-linked nucleic acid molecule. One or more processes of the methods described herein may be performed within a partition, such as a droplet or well. One or more processes of the methods described herein may be performed on a cell, such as a permeabilized cell.
