The present invention provides methods of administering long-acting Factor IX; methods of administering long-acting, chimeric and hybrid polypeptides comprising Factor IX; and methods of producing such chimeric and hybrid polypeptides using cells.

Factor IX/IXa variants and methods of use thereof are disclosed.

The invention relates to compositions including polynucleotides encoding polypeptides which have been chemically modified by replacing the uridines with 1-methyl-pseudouridine to improve one or more of the stability and/or clearance in tissues, receptor uptake and/or kinetics, cellular access by the compositions, engagement with translational machinery, mRNA half-life, translation efficiency, immune evasion, protein production capacity, secretion efficiency, accessibility to circulation, protein half-life and/or modulation of a cell's status, function, and/or activity.

The present invention provides Factor IX fusion proteins with higher specific activity and a longer useful clotting function relative to wild type or non-modified Factor IX protein.

The present invention provides Factor IX fusion proteins with higher specific activity and a longer useful clotting function relative to wild type or non-modified Factor IX protein.

The present invention relates to the field of chromatography. More closely, the invention relates to a chromatographic method for purification of plasmaproteins, such as Factor VIII, von Willebrand factor and Factor IX. The chromatographic method is performed on a matrix comprising an inner porous core and outer porous lid surrounding said core.

The present invention provides a recombinant adipose-derived stem cell and a recombinant method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, where an adenovirus carrying an hFIX gene is transfected into an adipose-derived stem cell to obtain the recombinant adipose-derived stem cell. In the present invention, an adenovirus carrying an hFIX gene is transfected into an adipose-derived stem cell, and the recombinant adipose-derived stem cell obtained after the transfection can express an hFIX protein.

The present disclosure provides expression constructs designed to provide for stable and/or inducible, tightly controlled production of genetically encoded payloads from engineered cells. These cassettes allow cells to be engineered to express genetically encoded payloads despite epigenetic silencing. As such, provided herein are expression systems for use in methods to engineer cells using CRISPR dCas9-activator systems such that expression of genetically encoded payloads (e.g., therapeutic proteins) can be optimized to overcome epigenetic silencing. In addition, provided herein are engineered cells comprising the expression systems.

The invention relates to synthetic liver-specific promoters and expression constructs for producing polypeptides and functional nucleic acids in the liver of a subject. The invention further relates to optimized polynucleotide sequences encoding Factor IX proteins, vector comprising the same, and methods of using these compositions to treat a bleeding disorder.

The present invention relates to polynucleotides comprising a Factor IX nucleotide sequence, wherein the Factor IX nucleotide sequence comprises a coding sequence that encodes a Factor IX protein or fragment thereof and wherein a portion of the coding sequence is not wild type. The present invention further relates to viral particles comprising a recombinant genome comprising the polynucleotide of the invention, compositions comprising the polynucleotides or viral particles, and methods and uses of the polynucleotides, viral particles or compositions.
