COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF TREATMENT FOR LYTIC AND LYSOGENIC VIRUSES
20230048681 · 2023-02-16 ·

A composition for treating a lysogenic virus, including isolated nucleic acid encoding two or more gene editors chosen from gene editors that target viral DNA, gene editors that target viral RNA, and combinations thereof. A composition for treating a lytic virus, including isolated nucleic acid encoding at least one gene editor that targets viral DNA and a viral RNA targeting composition. A composition for treating both lysogenic and lytic viruses, including isolated nucleic acid encoding two or more gene editors that target viral RNA, chosen from CRISPR-associated nucleases, Argonaute endonuclease gDNAs, C2c2, RNase P RNA, and combinations thereof. A composition for treating lytic viruses, including isolated nucleic acid encoding two or more gene editors that target viral RNA and a viral RNA targeting composition. Methods of treating a lysogenic virus or a lytic virus, by administering the above compositions to an individual having a virus and inactivating the virus.

Regulation of gene expression by aptamer-modulated RNase p cleavage
11739333 · 2023-08-29 · ·

The present disclosure provides polynucleotide constructs for the modulation of target gene expression by aptamer-mediated ribonuclease cleavage of the target gene RNA and methods of using the constructs to modulate gene expression in response to the presence or absence of a ligand that binds the aptamer. The polynucleotide constructs contains a ribonuclease substrate sequence (e.g., an RNase P substrate) and a riboswitch comprising an effector region and an aptamer such that when the aptamer binds a ligand, target gene expression occurs.

RNA cleavage-induced transcript stabilizer and uses thereof

Provided herein are genetic circuits and encoded RNA transcripts that produce an output molecule in response to an RNA cleavage event that removes a degradation signal. In some embodiments, the genetic circuits described herein may be used for detecting RNA cleaver activities (e.g., in a cell). Methods of using the genetic circuits described herein in diagnostic or therapeutic applications are also provided.
