Method of allele specific silencing for the treatment of autosomal dominant Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT)

The present invention provides a method for the treatment of autosomal dominant Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia associated with mutations in the cardiac ryanodine receptor type 2 (RYR2) gene, by the use of an AAV mediated RNA interference approach to induce allele specific silencing of mutant mRNA.

Compositions and methods for the targeting of rhodopsin

Provided herein are Class 2 Type V CRISPR:gNA systems comprising Class 2 Type V CRISPR polypeptides (e.g. CasX), guide nucleic acids (gNA), and optionally donor template nucleic acids useful in the modification of a RHO gene. The systems are also useful for introduction into cells, for example eukaryotic cells having mutations in the rhodopsin protein. Also provided are methods of using such systems to modify cells having such mutations and utility in methods of treatment of a subject with a RHO-related disease, such as retinitis pigmentosa.

Methods of vaccine administration

This invention relates to a method of treating a dog for canine diseases comprising administering to the dog therapeutically effective amounts of a vaccine, wherein the vaccine comprises viral antigens, a bacterin, or both, and wherein the vaccine is administered subcutaneously or orally according to the schedules provided herein.

GENE EDITING SYSTEM FOR CORRECTING SPLICING DEFECTS
20210388332 · 2021-12-16 ·

The present disclosure provides genome editing systems, compositions and methods. The genome editing system comprises at least one nuclease that generates blunt-ended DNA breaks in a sequence-specific manner, wherein the genome editing system is configured to form a first and a second blunt-ended double strand break in an intron of a gene, wherein the intron comprises a splice donor site mutation that alters splice site recognition, thereby excising a segment of the intron and simultaneously joining DNA ends flanking the excised segment of the intron to constitute a functional donor splice site.

Compositions useful in treatment of ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency
