TL;DR: In this paper, polynucleotides encoding multi-epitope polypeptides and assemblies thereof were used for treating or limiting Toxoplasma gondii infection.
ReportDOI
An RNAi-Enhanced Logic Circuit for Cancer Specific Detection and Destruction
TL;DR: This work designs a three-input AND gate that triggers a response only when all three biomarkers are expressed above a defined threshold, and implements transcriptional/post-transcriptional regulatory circuit that senses expression levels of a customizable set of endogenous microRNAs and computes whether to trigger a response if the expression levels match a pre-determined profile of interest.
Patent
Rna-based regulatory technologies for mirna sensors
Ron Weiss,Lebo Kevin J,Jin Huh +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the cell state classifiers described in this paper are encoded on a single RNA transcript, which is then processed to produce individual genetic circuits that function independently, and used in various applications (e.g., therapeutic or diagnostic applications).
Patent
Recombinases and target sequences
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a disclosure of large serine recombinases and their respective recognition sites, as well as libraries of orthogonal recombinase recognition sites.
Patent
Methods for in vitro evolution of rna replicons
TL;DR: In this article, an in vitro evolution technique was used to identify and characterize mutations in the non-structural genes of an alphavirus replicon that increase the strength and persistence of expression of the replicon genome.
