Abstract: Gene therapies offer promising prospects of treating a wide variety of human diseases. In one method, a gene therapy vector can be utilized to deliver an unmutated copy of a gene, called a transgene, to replace a mutated gene in order to treat the genetic disorder. However, lack of expression of a therapeutic transgene and uncontrolled gene...

Novel Codon-Optimized Gene Therapeutic for Methylmalonic Acidemia

Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) is a metabolic disorder characterized by increased acidity in the blood and tissues due to toxic accumulation of protein and fat by-products resulting in seizures, strokes, and chronic kidney failure. A significant portion of MMA cases stem from a deficiency in a key mitochondrial enzyme, methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT),...

Wild-Type and DNA Polymerase beta Null Mouse Embryotic Fibroblast Cell Lines Harboring a lambda-LIZ Transgene

Of great utility in toxicology and DNA repair research are knockout mice with cell lines enabling one to evaluate generations of gene mutations as a direct function of base excision repair. Of particular importance are lambda-LIZ transgenes. Likewise, wild-type and beta-pol null cell lines are equally important. While there exist cell lines carrying...
