FIELD

The disclosures provided herein relate to materials and methods for treating hemophilia A, both ex vivo and in vivo. In addition, materials and methods are provided for gene editing to modulate the expression, function, or activity of a blood-clotting protein such as Factor VIII (FVIII).


BACKGROUND

Hemophilia A (HemA) is caused by a genetic defect in the FVIII gene (F8) that results in low or undetectable levels of FVIII protein in the blood. This results in ineffective clot formation at sites of tissue injury leading to uncontrolled bleeding that can be fatal if not treated. Replacement of the missing or nonfunctional FVIII protein is an effective treatment for HemA subjects and is the current standard of care. However, protein replacement therapy requires frequent intravenous administration of FVIII protein which is inconvenient in adults, problematic in children, cost prohibitive (>$200,000/year), and can result in break through bleeding events if the treatment regimen is not closely followed.


A permanent cure for hemophilia A is highly desirable. While virus-based gene therapy using Adeno Associated Virus (AAV) has shown some promise in preclinical animal models and in human subjects, it has a number of disadvantages. For example, reported AAV based gene therapy uses a FVIII coding sequence driven by a liver-specific promoter that is encapsulated inside an AAV virus capsid (generally using the serotypes AAV5, AAV8 or AAV9 or AAVrh10, among others). In general, AAV viruses used for gene therapy deliver the packaged coding sequence cassette into the nucleus of the transduced cells, where the cassette remains almost exclusively episomal, and it is the episomal copies of the therapeutic coding sequence that give rise to the therapeutic protein. AAV does not have a mechanism to integrate the encapsulated DNA into the genome of the host cells. Because the therapeutic coding sequence is maintained as an episome, it is not coordinately replicated when the host cell divides so can be lost from daughter cells. It has been demonstrated that when liver cells containing AAV episomes are induced to divide, the AAV genome is not replicated but is instead diluted. Accordingly, AAV based gene therapy is not expected to be effective in children whose livers have not yet achieved adult size. Because current therapies are inadequate, there is a critical need for new effective and permanent or long-lasting treatments for HemA for adults and children.


FVIII is initially expressed as a protein having the domain structure A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2. The protein is activated by proteolytic cleavage of the bulky, heavily glycosylated B domain, leaving a heavy chain (A1-A2) and light chain (A3-C1-C2) heterodimer. The B domain of the FVIII protein is not required for biological activity. Removal of the large B domain from the FVIII coding sequence is essential to enable reliable packaging into AAV vectors used for in vivo delivery. However, removal of the B domain, which contains up to 18 N-linked glycosylation sites, results in impaired secretion of FVIII protein. Thus, there is a critical need for improved forms of FVIII which can be efficiently and effectively expressed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

RNA guided endonuclease editing provides advantages over, e.g., lentiviral methods of gene therapy. However, insertion of large sequences in editing protocols can be problematic, for example, because large sequences may be difficult to package for delivery or, compared to short sequences, can be difficult to manufacture. Some proteins require the presence of N-linked glycosylation sites to be correctly secreted from the cell in which they are expressed. The consensus amino sequence of an N-glycosylation site is N-X-T/S, where X is any residue except proline. Glycans are added to the N (asparagine) residue (K. F. Medzihradszky, Meth Mol Biol (2008) 446:293-316). Applicants have discovered that the number of N-linked glycosylation sites in such proteins can be greatly reduced or even eliminated, thereby reducing the size of a protein coding sequence, without adversely affecting transcription, translation, or secretion. For example, applicants have discovered that engineering the B domain of a FVIII coding sequence to reduce or to eliminate the number of glycosylation sites can reduce the size of the FVIII sequence to be used in gene editing, without significantly affecting transcription, translation, or secretion of the resulting engineered (synthetic) FVIII, while producing an engineered FVIII protein that has FVIII function. Furthermore, minimizing the number of N-glycan sites that are added to B domain deleted FVIII will minimize the risk of creating a novel epitope for antibodies or T-cells and thereby reduce the risk that the novel FVIII protein may induce an immune response in subjects. The disclosures provide, inter alia, compositions and methods for gene editing to modulate the expression, function, or activity of a blood-clotting protein such as FVIII in a cell by genome editing. The disclosures also provide, inter alia, compositions and methods for treating a subject with hemophilia A, both ex vivo and in vivo. In particular, the invention provides genome editing methods and systems that provide improved integration and improved expression, and synthetic FVIII coding sequences and proteins capable of ameliorating hemophilia A.


Definitions

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of skill in the art to which the claimed subject matter belongs. It is to be understood that the detailed descriptions are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of any subject matter claimed. In this application, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise. As used in the specification, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In this application, the use of “or” means “and/or” unless stated otherwise. Furthermore, use of the term “including” as well as other forms, such as “include”, “includes,” and “included,” is not limiting.


Although features of the disclosures may be described in the context of a single embodiment, the features may also be provided separately or in any suitable combination. Conversely, although the disclosures may be described herein in the context of separate embodiments for clarity, the disclosures may also be implemented in a single embodiment. Any published patent applications and any other published references, documents, manuscripts, and scientific literature cited herein are incorporated herein by reference for any purpose. In the case of conflict, the present specification, including definitions, will control. In addition, the materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.


As used herein, ranges and amounts can be expressed as “about” a particular value or range. “About” also includes the exact amount. Hence “about 5 μL” means “about 5 μL” and also “5 μL.” Generally, the term “about” includes an amount that would be expected to be within experimental error such as ±1%, ±2%, ±3%, ±5%, or ±10%.


When a range of numerical values is presented herein, it is contemplated that each intervening value between the lower and upper limit of the range, the values that are the upper and lower limits of the range, and all stated values with the range are encompassed within the disclosure. All the possible sub-ranges within the lower and upper limits of the range are also contemplated by the disclosure.


The terms “polypeptide,” “peptide,” and “protein,” are used interchangeably herein to designate a linear series of amino acid residues connected one to the other by peptide bonds, which series may include proteins, polypeptides, oligopeptides, peptides, and fragments thereof. The protein may be made up of naturally occurring amino acids and/or synthetic (e.g., modified or non-naturally occurring) amino acids. The terms “amino acid”, or “peptide residue”, as used herein can refer to both naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids. The terms “polypeptide”, “peptide”, and “protein” include fusion proteins, including, but not limited to, fusion proteins with a heterologous amino acid sequence, fusions with heterologous and homologous leader sequences, with or without N-terminal methionine residues; immunologically tagged proteins; fusion proteins with detectable fusion partners, e.g., fusion proteins including as a fusion partner a fluorescent protein, a β-galactosidase, a luciferase, and the like. Furthermore, it should be noted that a dash at the beginning or end of an amino acid sequence indicates either a peptide bond to a further sequence of one or more amino acid residues, or a covalent bond to a carboxyl or hydroxyl end group. However, the absence of a dash should not be taken to mean that such peptide bond or covalent bond to a carboxyl or hydroxyl end group is not present, as it is conventional in representation of amino acid sequences to omit such.


The term “polynucleotide,” “oligonucleotide,” “oligomer,” “oligo,” “coding sequence”, and “nucleic acid” refer to a polymeric form of nucleotides of different lengths, either ribonucleotides or deoxyribonucleotides. Thus, these terms include, without limitation, single-, double-, or multi-stranded DNA or RNA, genomic DNA, cDNA, DNA-RNA hybrids, or a polymer having purine and pyrimidine bases or other natural, chemically or biochemically modified, non-natural, or derivatized nucleotide bases.


The terms “functionally equivalent” or as “functional equivalent” refer without limitation to any molecule such as nucleic acid or protein that has a structure or sequence derived from the compounds disclosed herein and whose structure or sequence is sufficiently similar to those disclosed herein such that it has the same or similar activities and utilities or, based upon such similarity, would be expected by one skilled in the art to exhibit the same or similar activities and utilities as the referenced compounds. Modifications to obtain functional equivalents, “derivatives” or “variants” may include, for example, addition, deletion and/or substitution of one or more of the nucleic acids or amino acid residues.


The functional equivalent or fragment of the functional equivalent of a protein may have one or more conservative amino acid substitutions. The term “conservative amino acid substitution” refers to substitution of an amino acid for another amino acid that has similar properties as the original amino acid, i.e., substitution of an amino acid with another from the same group. The groups of conservative amino acids are as follows:













Group
Amino acid name







Aliphatic
Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile


Hydroxyl or Sulfhydryl/Selenium-containing
Ser, Cys, Thr, Met


Cyclic
Pro


Aromatic
Phe, Tyr, Trp


Basic
His, Lys, Arg


Acidic and their Amide
Asp, Glu, Asn, Gln









Conservative substitutions may be introduced in any position of a predetermined peptide or fragment thereof. It may however also be desirable to introduce non-conservative substitutions, particularly, but not limited to, a non-conservative substitution in any one or more positions. A non-conservative substitution leading to the formation of a functionally equivalent fragment of the peptide would for example differ in polarity, in electric charge, in steric bulk, and/or in binding to other proteins or nucleic acids, while maintaining the anticoagulant functionality of the functional equivalent or variant fragment.


“Percentage of sequence identity” is determined by comparing two optimally aligned sequences over a comparison window, wherein the portion of the polynucleotide or polypeptide sequence in the comparison window may have additions or deletions (i.e., gaps) as compared to the reference sequence (which does not have additions or deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences. In some cases, the percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid base or amino acid residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the window of comparison and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. Sequence identity can be determined using, for example, AlignX (included in Vectro NTI, based on ClustalW (http://www.clustal.org/clutal2/), using standard parameters (for example: gap opening penalty=15; gap extension penalty=6.6; gap separation penalty range=8).


The terms “identical” or percent “identity” in the context of two or more nucleic acid or polypeptide sequences, refer to two or more sequences or subsequences that are the same or have a specified percentage of amino acid residues or nucleotides that are the same (e.g., 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% identity over a specified region, e.g., the entire polypeptide sequences or individual domains of the polypeptides), when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence over a comparison window or designated region as measured using one of the following sequence comparison algorithms or by manual alignment and visual inspection. Such sequences are then said to be “substantially identical.” This definition also refers to the complement of a test sequence.


The term “complementary” or “substantially complementary,” interchangeably used herein, means that a nucleic acid (e.g., DNA or RNA) has a sequence of nucleotides that enables it to non-covalently bind, i.e., form Watson-Crick base pairs and/or G/U base pairs to another nucleic acid in a sequence-specific, antiparallel, manner (i.e., a nucleic acid specifically binds to a complementary nucleic acid). As is known in the art, standard Watson-Crick base-pairing includes: adenine (A) pairing with thymidine (T), adenine (A) pairing with uracil (U), and guanine (G) pairing with cytosine (C).


A DNA sequence that “encodes” a particular RNA is a DNA nucleic acid sequence that is transcribed into RNA. A DNA polynucleotide may encode an RNA (mRNA) that is translated into protein, or a DNA polynucleotide may encode an RNA that is not translated into protein (e.g., tRNA, rRNA, or a guide RNA; also called “non-coding” RNA or “ncRNA”). A “protein coding sequence or a sequence that encodes a particular protein or polypeptide, is a nucleic acid sequence that is transcribed into mRNA (in the case of DNA) and is translated (in the case of mRNA) into a polypeptide in vitro or in vivo when placed under the control of appropriate regulatory sequences.


As used herein, “codon” refers to a sequence of three nucleotides that together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule. As used herein the term “codon degeneracy” refers to the nature in the genetic code permitting variation of the nucleotide sequence without affecting the amino acid sequence of an encoded polypeptide.


The term “codon-optimized” or “codon optimization” refers to genes or coding regions of nucleic acid molecules for transformation of suitable hosts, refers to the alteration of codons in the gene or coding regions of the nucleic acid molecules to reflect the codon usage of the host organism without altering the polypeptide encoded by the DNA. Such optimization includes replacing at least one, or more than one, or a significant number, of codons with one or more codons that are more frequently used in the genes of that organism. Codon usage tables are readily available, for example, at the “Codon Usage Database” available at www kazusa.or.jp/codon/ (visited Jan. 30, 2019). By utilizing the knowledge on codon usage or codon preference in each organism, one of ordinary skill in the art can apply the frequencies to any given polypeptide sequence, and produce a nucleic acid fragment of a codon-optimized coding region which encodes the polypeptide, but which uses codons optimal for a given species. Codon-optimized coding regions are designed by methods known to those skilled in the art.


The term “recombinant” or “engineered” when used with reference, for example, to a cell, a nucleic acid, a protein, or a vector, indicates that the cell, nucleic acid, protein or vector has been modified by or is the result of laboratory methods. Thus, for example, recombinant or engineered proteins include proteins produced by laboratory methods. Recombinant or engineered proteins can include amino acid residues not found within the native (non-recombinant or wild type) form of the protein, and can include amino acid residues that have been modified, e.g., labeled. The term can include any modifications to the peptide, protein, or nucleic acid sequence. Such modifications include: any chemical modifications of the peptide, protein or nucleic acid sequence; addition, deletion, and/or substitution of one or more of amino acids in the peptide or protein; and addition, deletion, and/or substitution of one or more of nucleic acids in the nucleic acid sequence.


The term “genomic DNA” or “genomic sequence” refers to the DNA of a genome of an organism including, but not limited to, the DNA of the genome of a bacterium, fungus, archaeon, plant or animal.


As used herein, “transgene,” “exogenous gene”, and “exogenous sequence” refers to a nucleic acid sequence or gene that was not present in the genome of a cell, but is artificially introduced into the genome, for example by genome-edition.


As used herein, “endogenous gene” or “endogenous sequence” refers to a nucleic acid sequence or gene that is naturally present in the genome of a cell, without being introduced via any artificial means.


The term “vector” or “expression vector” means a replicon, such as plasmid, phage, virus, or cosmid, to which another DNA segment, e.g., an “insert”, may be attached so as to bring about the replication of the attached segment in a cell.


The term “expression cassette” refers to a vector having a DNA coding sequence operably linked to a promoter. “Operably linked” refers to a juxtaposition wherein the components so described are in a relationship permitting them to function in their intended manner. For instance, a promoter is operably linked to a coding sequence if the promoter affects its transcription or expression. The terms “recombinant expression vector,” and “DNA construct” are used interchangeably herein to refer to a DNA molecule having a vector and at least one insert. Recombinant expression vectors are usually generated for the purpose of expressing and/or propagating the insert(s), or for the construction of other recombinant nucleotide sequences. The nucleic acid(s) may or may not be operably linked to a promoter sequence and may or may not be operably linked to DNA regulatory sequences.


The term “regulatory sequence” includes promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements (e.g., polyadenylation signals). Such regulatory sequences are known in the art and are described, for example, in Goeddel; Gene Expression Technology: Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, CA (1990). Regulatory sequences include those that direct constitutive expression of a nucleotide sequence in many types of host cells, and those that direct expression of the nucleotide sequence only in certain host cells (e.g., tissue-specific regulatory sequences).


A cell has been “genetically modified” or “transformed” or “transfected” by exogenous DNA, e.g., a recombinant expression vector, when such DNA has been introduced inside the cell. The presence of the exogenous DNA results in permanent or transient genetic change. The transforming DNA may or may not be integrated (covalently linked) into the genome of the cell. The genetically modified (or transformed or transfected) cells that have therapeutic activity, e.g., treating hemophilia A, can be used and referred to as “therapeutic cells.”


The term “concentration” used in the context of a molecule such as peptide fragment refers to an amount of molecule, e.g., the number of moles of the molecule, present in a given volume of solution.


The term “acute phase protein” refers to a protein that varies in expression or serum concentration in response to inflammation. Examples of acute phase proteins include albumin, transferrin, transthyretin, fibrinogen, antithrombin, and the like.


The terms “individual,” “subject”, and “host” refer to any subject for whom diagnosis, treatment or therapy is desired. In some aspects, the subject is a mammal. In some aspects, the subject is a human being. In some aspects, the subject is a human patient. In some aspects, the subject has or is suspected of having hemophilia A, and/or has one or more symptoms of hemophilia A. In some aspects, the subject is a human who is diagnosed with a risk of hemophilia A at the time of diagnosis or later. In some cases, the diagnosis with a risk of hemophilia A can be determined based on the presence of one or more mutations in the endogenous FVIII gene or genomic sequence near the FVIII gene in the genome that may affect the expression of FVIII gene.


The term “treatment” used in reference to a disease or condition means that at least an amelioration of the symptoms associated with the condition afflicting an individual is achieved, where amelioration is used in a broad sense to refer to at least a reduction in the magnitude of a parameter, e.g., a symptom, associated with the condition (e.g., hemophilia A) being treated. Treatment also includes situations where the pathological condition, or at least symptoms associated therewith, are completely inhibited, e.g., prevented from happening, or eliminated entirely such that the host no longer suffers from the condition, or at least the symptoms that characterize the condition. Thus, treatment includes: (i) prevention (i.e., reducing the risk of development of clinical symptoms, including causing the clinical symptoms not to develop, e.g., preventing disease progression), and (ii) inhibition (i.e., arresting the development or further development of clinical symptoms, e.g., mitigating or completely inhibiting an active disease).


The terms “effective amount,” “pharmaceutically effective amount,” and “therapeutically effective amount” mean a sufficient amount of the composition to provide the desired utility when administered to a subject having a particular condition. In the context of ex vivo treatment of hemophilia A, the term “effective amount” refers to the amount of a population of therapeutic cells or their progeny needed to prevent or alleviate at least one or more signs or symptoms of hemophilia A, and relates to a sufficient amount of a composition having the therapeutic cells or their progeny to provide the desired effect, e.g., to treat symptoms of hemophilia A of a subject. The term “therapeutically effective amount” therefore refers to an amount or number of therapeutic cells or a composition having therapeutic cells that is sufficient to promote a particular effect when administered to a subject in need of treatment, such as one who has or is at risk for hemophilia A. An effective amount also includes an amount or number sufficient to prevent or delay the development of a symptom of the disease, alter the course of a symptom of the disease (for example but not limited to, slowing the progression of a symptom of the disease), or reversing a symptom of the disease. In the context of in vivo treatment of hemophilia A in a subject (e.g., patient) or genome edition done in a cell cultured in vitro, an effective amount refers to an amount of components used for genome edition such as gRNA, donor template and/or a site-directed polypeptide (such as a DNA endonuclease) needed to edit the genome of the cell in the subject or the cell cultured in vitro. It is understood that for any given case, an appropriate “effective amount” can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art.


The terms “pharmaceutical composition” and “medicament” as used herein refer to a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, combined with a cell of the invention (expressing a synthetic FVIII protein) and/or one or more components of the system of the invention (i.e., a gRNA or nucleic acid encoding a gRNA, a DNA endonuclease or a nucleic acid encoding a DNA endonuclease, and/or a donor template encoding a synthetic Factor VIII protein).


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” as used herein refers to any suitable substance that provides a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive or diluent for administration of a compound(s) of interest to a subject. “Pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” can encompass substances referred to as pharmaceutically acceptable diluents, pharmaceutically acceptable additives, and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.


The term “synthetic FVIII” refers to a protein having substantial sequence identity to the A and C domains of wild type human Factor VIII (GenBank: CAD97566.1; G. A. Vehar et al., Nature (1984) 312:337-42), but having a B domain substitute instead of the wild type B domain. In an embodiment of the invention, the sequences of the A and C domains of synthetic FVIII protein are 80, 90, 95, 98, or 99% identical to the wild type sequences of the A and C domains. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute is a polypeptide of any sequence, having about 10 to about 200 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute has about 20 to about 100 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute can have having less than 40 amino acids (e.g., having any number of amino acids from three to 40 amino acids), and 1-9 N-linked glycosylation sites that provide for glycosylation of the B domain substitute when expressed. The B domain substitute can further include a protease cleavage site, so that the synthetic FVIII protein can be cleaved into heavy and light chains in the same manner as the wild type protein. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence includes 1-10 amino acids from the N- and C-terminals of the wild type B domain, in addition to 1-9 N-linked glycosylation (“glycan”) sites. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has 1-6 glycan sites. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has 1-5 glycan sites. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has 1-4 glycan sites. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has 2-4 glycan sites. In an embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-369, 371, and 373, or a sequence that is at least 80%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% identical to the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-369, 371, and 373. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-366, 371, and 373, or a sequence that is at least 80%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% identical to the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-366, 371, and 373. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-364, 371, and 373, or a sequence that is at least 80%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% identical to the sequence of any of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-364, 371, and 373. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-363, or a sequence that is at least 80%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% identical to the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-363. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-369. In one embodiment, the B domain substitute protein sequence has a sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 362-366.

The term “safe harbor locus” refers to a locus within a host cell genome that can be modified (for example, by cleaving, or by inserting a donor sequence) without disrupting the metabolism or regulation of the cell (for example, by causing apoptosis, proliferation, etc.), and/or without causing risk or adverse effects to other cells (non-edited cells) or the host organism as a whole (for example, by inadvertently causing the overexpression of growth factors, etc.). In some embodiments, the safe harbor locus is a locus that is expressed in the host cell. In some embodiments, the safe harbor locus is an albumin locus, a fibrinogen locus, an AAVS1 locus, or a transferrin locus.


Nucleic Acids


Genome-Targeting Nucleic Acid or Guide RNA


The present disclosure provides a genome-targeting nucleic acid that can direct the activities of an associated polypeptide (e.g., a site-directed polypeptide, such as a DNA endonuclease) to a specific target sequence within a target nucleic acid. In some embodiments, the genome-targeting nucleic acid is an RNA. A genome-targeting RNA is referred to as a “guide RNA” or “gRNA” herein. A guide RNA has at least a spacer sequence that can hybridize to a target nucleic acid sequence of interest and a CRISPR repeat sequence. In Type II systems, the gRNA also has a second RNA called the tracrRNA sequence. In the Type II gRNA, the CRISPR repeat sequence and tracrRNA sequence hybridize to each other to form a duplex. In the Type V gRNA, the crRNA forms a duplex. In both systems, the duplex binds a site-directed polypeptide such that the gRNA and the site-directed polypeptide form a complex. The genome-targeting nucleic acid provides target specificity to the complex by virtue of its association with the site-directed polypeptide. The genome-targeting nucleic acid thus directs the activity of the site-directed polypeptide.


In some embodiments, the genome-targeting nucleic acid is a double-molecule gRNA. A double-molecule gRNA has two strands of RNA. The first strand has, in the 5′ to 3′ direction, an optional spacer extension sequence, a spacer sequence and a minimum CRISPR repeat sequence. The second strand has a minimum tracrRNA sequence (complementary to the minimum CRISPR repeat sequence), a 3′ tracrRNA sequence and an optional tracrRNA extension sequence. In some embodiments, the genome-targeting nucleic acid is a single-molecule gRNA. A single-molecule gRNA (sgRNA) in a Type II system has, in the 5′ to 3′ direction, an optional spacer extension sequence, a spacer sequence, a minimum CRISPR repeat sequence, a single-molecule guide linker, a minimum tracrRNA sequence, a 3′ tracrRNA sequence and an optional tracrRNA extension sequence. The optional tracrRNA extension may have elements that contribute additional functionality (e.g., stability) to the gRNA. The single-molecule guide linker links the minimum CRISPR repeat and the minimum tracrRNA sequence to form a hairpin structure. The optional tracrRNA extension has one or more hairpins. An sgRNA in a Type V system has, in the 5′ to 3′ direction, a minimum CRISPR repeat sequence and a spacer sequence.


By way of illustration, gRNAs used in the CRISPR/Cas/Cpf1 system, or other smaller RNAs can be readily synthesized by chemical means as illustrated below and described in the art. While chemical synthesis procedures are continually expanding, purifications of such RNAs by procedures such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC, which avoids the use of gels such as PAGE) tends to become more challenging as polynucleotide lengths increase significantly beyond a hundred or so nucleotides. One approach used for generating RNAs of greater length is to produce two or more molecules that are ligated together. Much longer RNAs, such as those encoding a Cas9 or Cpf1 endonuclease, are more readily generated enzymatically. RNA modifications can be introduced during or after chemical synthesis and/or enzymatic generation of RNAs, e.g., modifications that enhance stability, reduce the likelihood or degree of innate immune response, and/or enhance other attributes, as described in the art.


Spacer Extension Sequence


In some embodiments of genome-targeting nucleic acids, a spacer extension sequence can modify activity, provide stability and/or provide a location for modifications of a genome-targeting nucleic acid. A spacer extension sequence can modify on- or off-target activity or specificity. In some embodiments, a spacer extension sequence is provided. A spacer extension sequence can have a length of more than 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, or 7000 or more nucleotides. A spacer extension sequence can have a length of about 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, or 7000 or more nucleotides. A spacer extension sequence can have a length of less than 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000 or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, a spacer extension sequence is less than 10 nucleotides in length. In some embodiments, a spacer extension sequence is between 10-30 nucleotides in length. In some embodiments, a spacer extension sequence is between 30-70 nucleotides in length.


In some embodiments, the spacer extension sequence has another moiety (e.g., a stability control sequence, an endoribonuclease binding sequence, a ribozyme). In some embodiments, the moiety decreases or increases the stability of a nucleic acid targeting nucleic acid. In some embodiments, the moiety is a transcriptional terminator segment (i.e., a transcription termination sequence). In some embodiments, the moiety functions in a eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the moiety functions in a prokaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the moiety functions in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Non-limiting examples of suitable moieties include: a 5′ cap (e.g., a 7-methylguanylate cap (m7G)), a riboswitch sequence (e.g., to allow for regulated stability and/or regulated accessibility by proteins and protein complexes), a sequence that forms a dsRNA duplex (i.e., a hairpin), a sequence that targets the RNA to a subcellular location (e.g., nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and the like), a modification or sequence that provides for tracking (e.g., direct conjugation to a fluorescent molecule, conjugation to a moiety that facilitates fluorescent detection, a sequence that allows for fluorescent detection, etc.), and/or a modification or sequence that provides a binding site for proteins (e.g., proteins that act on DNA, including transcriptional activators, transcriptional repressors, DNA methyltransferases, DNA demethylases, histone acetyltransferases, histone deacetylases, and the like).


Spacer Sequence


The spacer sequence can hybridize to a sequence in a target nucleic acid of interest. The spacer of a genome-targeting nucleic acid interacts with a target nucleic acid in a sequence-specific manner via hybridization (i.e., base pairing). The nucleotide sequence of the spacer thus varies depending on the sequence of the target nucleic acid of interest.


In a CRISPR/Cas system herein, the spacer sequence is designed to hybridize to a target nucleic acid that is located 5′ of a PAM of the Cas9 enzyme used in the system. The spacer can perfectly match the target sequence or can have mismatches. Each Cas9 enzyme has a particular PAM sequence that it recognizes in a target DNA. For example, S. pyogenes recognizes in a target nucleic acid a PAM that has the sequence 5′-NRG-3′, where R has either A or G, where N is any nucleotide and N is immediately 3′ of the target nucleic acid sequence targeted by the spacer sequence.


In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid sequence has 20 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid has less than 20 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid has more than 20 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid has at least: 5, 10, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30 or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid has at most: 5, 10, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30 or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target nucleic acid sequence has 20 bases immediately 5′ of the first nucleotide of the PAM. For example, in a sequence having 5′-NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNRG-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 191), the target nucleic acid has the sequence that corresponds to the Ns, wherein N is any nucleotide, and the underlined NRG sequence (R is G or A) is the Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 PAM. In some embodiments, the PAM sequence used in the compositions and methods of the present disclosure as a sequence recognized by S.p. Cas9 is NGG.


In some embodiments, the spacer sequence that hybridizes to the target nucleic acid has a length of at least about 6 nucleotides (nt). The spacer sequence can be at least about 6 nt, about 10 nt, about 15 nt, about 18 nt, about 19 nt, about 20 nt, about 25 nt, about 30 nt, about 35 nt or about 40 nt, from about 6 nt to about 80 nt, from about 6 nt to about 50 nt, from about 6 nt to about 45 nt, from about 6 nt to about 40 nt, from about 6 nt to about 35 nt, from about 6 nt to about 30 nt, from about 6 nt to about 25 nt, from about 6 nt to about 20 nt, from about 6 nt to about 19 nt, from about 10 nt to about 50 nt, from about 10 nt to about 45 nt, from about 10 nt to about 40 nt, from about 10 nt to about 35 nt, from about 10 nt to about 30 nt, from about 10 nt to about 25 nt, from about 10 nt to about 20 nt, from about 10 nt to about 19 nt, from about 19 nt to about 25 nt, from about 19 nt to about 30 nt, from about 19 nt to about 35 nt, from about 19 nt to about 40 nt, from about 19 nt to about 45 nt, from about 19 nt to about 50 nt, from about 19 nt to about 60 nt, from about 20 nt to about 25 nt, from about 20 nt to about 30 nt, from about 20 nt to about 35 nt, from about 20 nt to about 40 nt, from about 20 nt to about 45 nt, from about 20 nt to about 50 nt, or from about 20 nt to about 60 nt. In some embodiments, the spacer sequence has 20 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the spacer has 19 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the spacer has 18 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the spacer has 17 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the spacer has 16 nucleotides. In some embodiments, the spacer has 15 nucleotides.


In some embodiments, the percent complementarity between the spacer sequence and the target nucleic acid is at least about 30%, at least about 40%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, at least about 99%, or 100%.

In some embodiments, the percent complementarity between the spacer sequence and the target nucleic acid is 100% over the six contiguous 5′-most nucleotides of the target sequence of the complementary strand of the target nucleic acid. In some embodiments, the percent complementarity between the spacer sequence and the target nucleic acid is at least 60% over about 20 contiguous nucleotides. In some embodiments, the length of the spacer sequence and the target nucleic acid can differ by one to 6 nucleotides, which can be thought of as a bulge or bulges.


In some embodiments, the spacer sequence is designed or chosen using a computer program. The computer program can use variables, such as predicted melting temperature, secondary structure formation, predicted annealing temperature, sequence identity, genomic context, chromatin accessibility, % GC, frequency of genomic occurrence (e.g., of sequences that are identical or are similar but vary in one or more spots as a result of mismatch, insertion or deletion), methylation status, presence of SNPs, and the like.

In some embodiments, a minimum tracrRNA sequence has nucleotides that hybridize to a minimum CRISPR repeat sequence in a cell. A minimum tracrRNA sequence and a minimum CRISPR repeat sequence form a duplex. Together, the minimum tracrRNA sequence and the minimum CRISPR repeat bind to a site-directed polypeptide.

In some embodiments, the duplex has at most about 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 or mismatches. In some embodiments, the duplex has no more than two mismatches.


Bulges


In some embodiments, there is a “bulge” in the duplex between the minimum CRISPR RNA and the minimum tracrRNA. The bulge is an unpaired region of nucleotides within the duplex. In some embodiments, the bulge contributes to the binding of the duplex to the site-directed polypeptide. A bulge has, on one side of the duplex, an unpaired 5′-XXXY-3′ where X is any purine and Y has a nucleotide that can form a wobble pair with a nucleotide on the opposite strand, and an unpaired nucleotide region on the other side of the duplex. The number of unpaired nucleotides on the two sides of the duplex can be different.


In one example, the bulge has an unpaired purine (e.g., adenine) on the minimum CRISPR repeat strand of the bulge. In some embodiments, a bulge has an unpaired 5′-AAGY-3′ of the minimum tracrRNA sequence strand of the bulge, where Y has a nucleotide that can form a wobble pairing with a nucleotide on the minimum CRISPR repeat strand.

In some embodiments, the hairpin can start at most about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 or more nucleotides 3′ of the last paired nucleotide in the minimum CRISPR repeat and minimum tracrRNA sequence duplex.

In some embodiments, a hairpin has duplexed nucleotides (i.e., nucleotides in a hairpin, hybridized together). For example, a hairpin has a CC dinucleotide that is hybridized to a GG dinucleotide in a hairpin duplex of the 3′ tracrRNA sequence.


One or more of the hairpins can interact with guide RNA-interacting regions of a site-directed polypeptide. In some embodiments, there are two or more hairpins, and in some embodiments there are three or more hairpins.

In some embodiments, the functional moiety has a total length from about 10 nt to about 100 nucleotides, from about 10 nt to about 20 nt, from about 20 nt to about 30 nt, from about 30 nt to about 40 nt, from about 40 nt to about 50 nt, from about 50 nt to about 60 nt, from about 60 nt to about 70 nt, from about 70 nt to about 80 nt, from about 80 nt to about 90 nt, or from about 90 nt to about 100 nt, from about 15 nt to about 80 nt, from about 15 nt to about 50 nt, from about 15 nt to about 40 nt, from about 15 nt to about 30 nt, or from about 15 nt to about 25 nt. In some embodiments, the functional moiety functions in a eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the functional moiety functions in a prokaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the functional moiety functions in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.


Non-limiting examples of suitable tracrRNA extension functional moieties include a 3′ poly-adenylated tail, a riboswitch sequence (e.g., to allow for regulated stability and/or regulated accessibility by proteins and protein complexes), a sequence that forms a dsRNA duplex, a sequence that targets the RNA to a subcellular location (e.g., nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and the like), a modification or sequence that provides for tracking (e.g., direct conjugation to a fluorescent molecule, conjugation to a moiety that facilitates fluorescent detection, a sequence that allows for fluorescent detection, etc.), and/or a modification or sequence that provides a binding site for proteins (e.g., proteins that act on DNA, including transcriptional activators, transcriptional repressors, DNA methyltransferases, DNA demethylases, histone acetyltransferases, histone deacetylases, and the like). In some embodiments, a tracrRNA extension sequence has a primer binding site or a molecular index (e.g., barcode sequence). In some embodiments, the tracrRNA extension sequence has one or more affinity tags.


Single-Molecule Guide Linker Sequence


In some embodiments, the linker sequence of a single-molecule guide nucleic acid has a length from about three nucleotides to about 100 nucleotides. An illustrative linker has a length from about 3 nt to about 90 nt, from about 3 nt to about 80 nt, from about 3 nt to about 70 nt, from about 3 nt to about 60 nt, from about 3 nt to about 50 nt, from about 3 nt to about 40 nt, from about 3 nt to about 30 nt, from about 3 nt to about 20 nt, from about 3 nt to about 10 nt. For example, the linker can have a length from about 3 nt to about 5 nt, from about 5 nt to about 10 nt, from about 10 nt to about 15 nt, from about 15 nt to about 20 nt, from about 20 nt to about 25 nt, from about 25 nt to about 30 nt, from about 30 nt to about 35 nt, from about 35 nt to about 40 nt, from about 40 nt to about 50 nt, from about 50 nt to about 60 nt, from about 60 nt to about 70 nt, from about 70 nt to about 80 nt, from about 80 nt to about 90 nt, or from about 90 nt to about 100 nt. In some embodiments, the linker of a single-molecule guide nucleic acid is between 4 and 40 nucleotides. In some embodiments, a linker is at least about 100, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500, 5000, 5500, 6000, 6500, or 7000 or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, a linker is at most about 100, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500, 5000, 5500, 6000, 6500, or 7000 or more nucleotides.


Linkers can have any of a variety of sequences, although in some embodiments, the linker will not have sequences that have extensive regions of homology with other portions of the gRNA, which might cause intramolecular binding that could interfere with other functional regions of the gRNA. In M. Jinek et al., supra, a simple four nucleotide sequence -GAAA- was used, but numerous other sequences, including longer sequences, can likewise be used.


In some embodiments, the linker sequence has a functional moiety. For example, the linker sequence can have one or more features, including an aptamer, a ribozyme, a protein-interacting hairpin, a protein binding site, a CRISPR array, an intron, or an exon. In some embodiments, the linker sequence has at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 or more functional moieties. In some embodiments, the linker sequence has at most about 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 or more functional moieties.


In some embodiments, a genomic location targeted by gRNAs in accordance with the present disclosure can be at, within or near a suitable endogenous locus in a genome, e.g., human genome. The endogenous locus may be selected on the basis of including a gene that is highly expressed, or alternatively a gene that is very selectively expressed (for example, a gene expressed only in certain tissues, or under certain conditions). Exemplary loci for expression in the liver include, for example, an albumin locus, a transferrin locus, and a fibrinogen locus.


In some embodiments, provided herein is a gRNA comprising a spacer sequence that is complementary to a genomic sequence within or near an endogenous transferrin locus in a cell. In some embodiments, the gRNA comprises a spacer sequence that is complementary to a sequence within intron 1 of an endogenous transferrin gene in the cell. In some embodiments, the gRNA comprises a spacer sequence from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-190 or a variant thereof having no more than three mismatches compared to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-190. In some embodiments, the gRNA comprises a spacer sequence from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 96, 5, 6, 9, 8, 11, 15, 16, 12, 7, 10, 17, 18, 29, 76, 50, 54, 81, 64, 51, 1-4, 13, 14, 19-28, 30-49, 52, 53, 55-63, 65-75, 77-80, 82-95, and 97-190 or a variant thereof having no more than three mismatches compared to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 96, 5, 6, 9, 8, 11, 15, 16, 12, 7, 10, 17, 18, 29, 76, 50, 54, 81, 64, 51, 1-4, 13, 14, 19-28, 30-49, 52, 53, 55-63, 65-75, 77-80, 82-95, and 97-190. In some embodiments, the gRNA comprises a spacer sequence from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 5, 6, 9, 8, 11, 15, 16, 12, 7, and 10 or a variant thereof having no more than three mismatches compared to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 5, 6, 9, 8, 11, 15, 16, 12, 7, and 10. In some embodiments, the gRNA comprises a spacer sequence from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 17, 18, 29, 76, 50, 54, 81, 96, 64, and 51 or a variant thereof having no more than three mismatches compared to any one of SEQ ID NOs: 17, 18, 29, 76, 50, 54, 81, 96, 64, and 51. In some embodiments, the spacer sequence is 19 nucleotides in length and does not include the nucleotide at position 1 of the sequence from which it is selected.


In some embodiments, a genomic location targeted by gRNAs in accordance with the preset disclosure can be at, within or near an endogenous fibrinogen-alpha chain (fibrinogen-α) locus in a genome, e.g., human genome. Exemplary guide RNAs targeting such locations include the spacer sequences listed in any of SEQ ID NO: 192-270 and the associated Cas9 or Cpf1 cut site. As is understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, each guide RNA is designed to include a spacer sequence complementary to its genomic target sequence. For example, each of the spacer sequences listed in any of SEQ ID NO: 192-270 can be put into a single RNA chimera or a crRNA (along with a corresponding tracrRNA). See M. Jinek et al., supra, and E. Deltcheva et al., Nature (2011) 471:602-07.


Exemplary guide RNAs targeting albumin locations include the spacer sequences from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 271-298 and the associated Cas9 or Cpf1 cut site. For example, a gRNA including a spacer sequence from SEQ ID NO: 271 can include the spacer sequence UAAUUUUCUUUUGCGCACUA (SEQ ID NO: 299). As is understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, each guide RNA is designed to include a spacer sequence complementary to its genomic target sequence. For example, each of the spacer sequences from any one of SEQ ID NOs: 271-298 can be put into a single RNA chimera or a crRNA (along with a corresponding tracrRNA).


Donor Template


Site-directed polypeptides, such as a DNA endonuclease, can introduce double-strand breaks or single-strand breaks in nucleic acids, e.g., genomic DNA. The double-strand break can stimulate a cell's endogenous DNA-repair pathways (e.g., homology-dependent repair (HDR), non-homologous end joining or alternative non-homologous end joining (A-NHEJ), or microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ)). NHEJ can repair cleaved target nucleic acid without the need for a homologous template. This can sometimes result in small deletions or insertions (indels) in the target nucleic acid at the site of cleavage, and can lead to disruption or alteration of gene expression. HDR, which is also known as homologous recombination (HR) can occur when a homologous repair template, or donor, is available.


The homologous donor template has sequences that are homologous to sequences flanking the target nucleic acid cleavage site. The sister chromatid is generally used by the cell as the repair template. However, for the purposes of genome editing, the repair template is often supplied as an exogenous nucleic acid, such as a plasmid, duplex oligonucleotide, single-strand oligonucleotide, double-stranded oligonucleotide, or viral nucleic acid. With exogenous donor templates, it is common to introduce an additional nucleic acid sequence (such as a transgene) or modification (such as a single or multiple base change or a deletion) between the flanking regions of homology so that the additional or altered nucleic acid sequence also becomes incorporated into the target locus. MMEJ results in a genetic outcome that is similar to NHEJ in that small deletions and insertions can occur at the cleavage site. MMEJ makes use of homologous sequences of a few base pairs flanking the cleavage site to drive a favored end-joining DNA repair outcome. In some instances, it can be possible to predict likely repair outcomes based on analysis of potential microhomologies in the nuclease target regions.


Thus, in some cases, homologous recombination is used to insert an exogenous polynucleotide sequence into the target nucleic acid cleavage site. An exogenous polynucleotide sequence is termed a donor template (or donor, or donor sequence, or donor DNA template) herein. In some embodiments, the donor template, a portion of the donor template, a copy of the donor template, or a portion of a copy of the donor template is inserted into the target nucleic acid cleavage site. In some embodiments, the donor template is a sequence that does not naturally occur at the target nucleic acid cleavage site.


When an exogenous DNA molecule is supplied in sufficient concentration inside the nucleus of a cell in which the double-strand break occurs, the exogenous DNA can be inserted at the double-strand break during the NHEJ repair process and thus become a permanent addition to the genome. If the donor template contains a coding sequence for a gene of interest such as a FVIII gene, optionally together with relevant regulatory sequences such as promoters, enhancers, polyA sequences, and/or splice acceptor sequences (also referred to herein as a “donor cassette”), the coding sequence can be expressed from the integrated copy in the genome, resulting in permanent expression for the life of the cell. Moreover, the integrated copy of the donor template can be transmitted to the daughter cells when the cell divides.


In the presence of sufficient concentrations of a donor template that contains flanking DNA sequences with homology to the DNA sequence either side of the double-strand break (referred to as homology arms), the donor template can be integrated via the HDR pathway. The homology arms act as substrates for homologous recombination between the donor template and the sequences either side of the double-strand break. This can result in an error-free insertion of the donor template in which the sequences either side of the double-strand break are not altered from that in the unmodified genome.


Supplied donors for editing by HDR vary markedly, but generally contain the intended sequence with small or large flanking homology arms to allow annealing to the genomic DNA. The homology regions flanking the introduced genetic changes can be 30 bp or smaller, or as large as a multi-kilobase cassette that can contain promoters, cDNAs, etc. Both single-stranded and double-stranded oligonucleotide donors can be used. These oligonucleotides range in size from less than 100 nt to over many kb, though longer ssDNA can also be generated and used. Double-stranded donors are often used, including PCR amplicons, plasmids, and mini-circles. In general, it has been found that an AAV vector is a very effective means of delivery of a donor template, though the packaging limits for individual donors is <5 kb. Active transcription of the donor increased HDR three-fold, indicating the inclusion of promoter can increase conversion. Conversely, CpG methylation of the donor can decrease gene expression and HDR.


In some embodiments, the donor DNA can be supplied with the nuclease or independently by a variety of different methods, for example by transfection, nanoparticle, micro-injection, or viral transduction. A range of tethering options can be used to increase the availability of the donors for HDR in some embodiments. Examples include attaching the donor to the nuclease, attaching to DNA binding proteins that bind nearby, or attaching to proteins that are involved in DNA end binding or repair.


In addition to genome editing by NHEJ or HDR, site-specific gene insertions can be conducted that use both the NHEJ pathway and HR. A combination approach can be applicable in certain settings, possibly including intron/exon borders. NHEJ can prove effective for ligation in the intron, while the error-free HDR can be better suited in the coding region.


In embodiments, an exogenous sequence to be inserted into a genome is a synthetic FVIII coding sequence, encoding a synthetic FVIII protein having a B domain substitute in the position where the wild type B domain would be otherwise. The synthetic FVIII coding sequence can include a nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII protein that has a substantial activity of a wild type FVIII protein such as procoagulation activity. The synthetic FVIII protein can have a degree of activity of at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95% or about 100% of the activity that the wild type FVIII protein exhibits. In some embodiments, the synthetic FVIII protein can have at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98% or about 99% amino acid sequence identity to the FVIII protein, e.g., the wild type FVIII protein. In some embodiments, the synthetic FVIII protein can have at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98% or about 99% amino acid sequence identity to the FVIII protein not including the B domain, e.g., the wild type FVIII protein after cleavage of the B domain. In some embodiments, one having ordinary skill in the art can use a number of methods known in the field to test the functionality or activity of a compound, e.g., peptide or protein. The synthetic FVIII protein can also include any fragment of the wild type FVIII protein or fragment of a modified FVIII protein that has conservative modification on one or more of amino acid residues in the full length, wild type FVIII protein. Thus, in some embodiments, the synthetic FVIII coding sequence can have at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98% or about 99% nucleic acid sequence identity to the FVIII coding sequence, e.g., the wild type FVIII coding sequence.


In embodiments of the invention, the synthetic FVIII contains one or more conservative or non-conservative amino acid substitutions that improve aspects of the protein without adversely affecting the anticoagulant properties of the protein. In one embodiment, the phenylalanine at position 309 is (non-conservatively) replaced with serine or alanine to provide F309S and F309A muteins, respectively. These substitutions are suggested to disrupt a potential binding site for chaperone immunoglobulin binding protein (BiP) in the A1 domain, thereby improving expression and secretion of the protein (M. Swaroop et al., J Biol Chem (1997) 272:24121-24).


The B domain substitute of the invention replaces the B domain of the wild type FVIII with a much smaller peptide chain, while still providing a protease cleavage site and one or more sites for N-linked glycosylation. The B domain substitute can have about 10 to about 200 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute has about 20 to about 100 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute has about 1 to about 40 amino acids, about 1 to about 35 amino acids, about 1 to about 30 amino acids, about 1 to about 25 amino acids, about 1 to about 20 amino acids, about 1 to about 15 amino acids, about 1 to about 10 amino acids, or about 1 to about 5 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute has about 5 to about 40 amino acids, about 10 to about 40 amino acids, about 15 to about 40 amino acids, about 20 to about 40 amino acids, about 25 to about 40 amino acids, about 30 to about 40 amino acids, or about 35 to about 40 amino acids. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute has 1 amino acid, 2 amino acids, 3 amino acids, 4 amino acids, 5 amino acids, 6 amino acids, 7 amino acids, 8 amino acids, 9 amino acids, 10 amino acids, 11 amino acid, 12 amino acids, 13 amino acids, 14 amino acids, 15 amino acids, 16 amino acids, 17 amino acids, 18 amino acids, 19 amino acids, 20 amino acids, 21 amino acid, 22 amino acids, 23 amino acids, 24 amino acids, 25 amino acids, 26 amino acids, 27 amino acids, 28 amino acids, 29 amino acids, 30 amino acids, 31 amino acid, 32 amino acids, 33 amino acids, 34 amino acids, 35 amino acids, 36 amino acids, 37 amino acids, 38 amino acids, 39 amino acids, or 40 amino acids. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the B domain substitute is codon optimized. In some embodiments, the B domain substitute comprises a protease cleavage site, for example, RHQR.


In some embodiments where the insertion of a synthetic FVIII coding sequence thereof is concerned, a cDNA of synthetic FVIII coding sequence can be inserted into a genome of a subject having defective FVIII gene or its regulatory sequences. In such a case, a donor DNA or donor template can be an expression cassette or vector construct having the sequence encoding synthetic FVIII. In some embodiments, the expression vector contains a sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII, which is described elsewhere in the specification, can be used.


In some embodiments, according to any of the donor templates described herein comprising a donor cassette, the donor cassette is flanked on one or both sides by a gRNA target site. For example, such a donor template may comprise a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette and/or a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette and a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette and a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette, and the two gRNA target sites comprise the same sequence. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises at least one gRNA target site, and the at least one gRNA target site in the donor template comprises the same sequence as a gRNA target site in a target locus into which the donor cassette of the donor template is to be integrated. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises at least one gRNA target site, and the at least one gRNA target site in the donor template comprises the reverse complement of a gRNA target site in a target locus into which the donor cassette of the donor template is to be integrated. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette and a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette, and the two gRNA target sites in the donor template comprises the same sequence as a gRNA target site in a target locus into which the donor cassette of the donor template is to be integrated. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette with a gRNA target site 5′ of the donor cassette and a gRNA target site 3′ of the donor cassette, and the two gRNA target sites in the donor template comprises the reverse complement of a gRNA target site in a target locus into which the donor cassette of the donor template is to be integrated.


Nucleic Acid Encoding a Site-Directed Polypeptide or DNA Endonuclease


In some embodiments, the methods of genome editing and compositions therefore can use a nucleic acid (or oligonucleotide) encoding a site-directed polypeptide, such as a DNA endonuclease. The nucleic acid sequence encoding the site-directed polypeptide can be DNA or RNA. If the nucleic acid sequence encoding the site-directed polypeptide is RNA, it can be covalently linked to a gRNA sequence or exist as a separate sequence. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide (such as a DNA endonuclease) is used directly, instead of a nucleic acid sequence that encodes it.


Vectors


In another aspect, the present disclosure provides a nucleic acid having a nucleotide sequence encoding a genome-targeting nucleic acid of the disclosure, a site-directed polypeptide of the disclosure, and/or any nucleic acid or proteinaceous molecule necessary to carry out the embodiments of the methods of the disclosure. In some embodiments, such a nucleic acid is a vector (e.g., a recombinant expression vector).


Expression vectors contemplated include, but are not limited to, viral vectors based on vaccinia virus, poliovirus, adenovirus, adeno-associated virus, SV40, herpes simplex virus, human immunodeficiency virus, retrovirus (e.g., Murine Leukemia Virus, spleen necrosis virus, and vectors derived from retroviruses such as Rous Sarcoma Virus, Harvey Sarcoma Virus, avian leukosis virus, a lentivirus, human immunodeficiency virus, myeloproliferative sarcoma virus, and mammary tumor virus) and other recombinant vectors. Other vectors contemplated for eukaryotic target cells include, but are not limited to, the vectors pXT1, pSG5, pSVK3, pBPV, pMSG, and pSVLSV40 (Pharmacia). Additional vectors contemplated for eukaryotic target cells include, but are not limited to, the vectors pCTx-1, pCTx-2, and pCTx-3. Other vectors can be used so long as they are compatible with the host cell.


In some embodiments, a vector has one or more transcription and/or translation control elements. Depending on the host/vector system utilized, any of a number of suitable transcription and translation control elements, including constitutive and inducible promoters, transcription enhancer elements, transcription terminators, etc. can be used in the expression vector. In some embodiments, the vector is a self-inactivating vector that either inactivates the viral sequences or the components of the CRISPR machinery or other elements.


Non-limiting examples of suitable eukaryotic promoters (i.e., promoters functional in a eukaryotic cell) include those from cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early, herpes simplex virus (HSV) thymidine kinase, early and late SV40, long terminal repeats (LTRs) from retrovirus, human elongation factor-1 promoter (EF1), a hybrid construct having the cytomegalovirus (CMV) enhancer fused to the chicken beta-actin promoter (CAG), murine stem cell virus promoter (MSCV), phosphoglycerate kinase-1 locus promoter (PGK), and mouse metallothionein-I.


For expressing small RNAs, including gRNAs, promoters such as RNA polymerase III promoters, including for example U6 and H1, can be advantageous. Descriptions of and parameters for enhancing the use of such promoters are known in art, and additional information and approaches are regularly being described; see, e.g., H. Ma et al., Mol Ther Nuc Acids 3, e161 (2014) doi:10.1038/mtna.2014.12.


The expression vector can also contain a ribosome binding site for translation initiation and a transcription terminator. The expression vector can also include appropriate sequences for amplifying expression. The expression vector can also include nucleotide sequences encoding non-native tags (e.g., histidine tag, hemagglutinin tag, green fluorescent protein, etc.) that are fused to the site-directed polypeptide, thus resulting in a fusion protein.


In some embodiments, a promoter is an inducible promoter (e.g., a heat shock promoter, tetracycline-regulated promoter, steroid-regulated promoter, metal-regulated promoter, estrogen receptor-regulated promoter, etc.). In some embodiments, a promoter is a constitutive promoter (e.g., CMV promoter, UBC promoter). In some embodiments, the promoter is a spatially restricted and/or temporally restricted promoter (e.g., a tissue specific promoter, a cell type specific promoter, etc.). In some embodiments, a vector does not have a promoter for at least one gene to be expressed in a host cell if the gene is going to be expressed, after it is inserted into a genome, under an endogenous promoter present in the genome.


Site-Directed Polypeptide or DNA Endonuclease


Modifications of the target DNA due to NHEJ and/or HDR can lead to, for example, mutations, deletions, alterations, integrations, gene correction, gene replacement, gene tagging, transgene insertion, nucleotide deletion, gene disruption, translocations and/or gene mutation. The process of integrating non-native nucleic acid into genomic DNA is an example of genome editing.


A site-directed polypeptide is a nuclease used in genome editing to cleave DNA. The site-directed polypeptide can be administered to a cell or a subject as either one or more polypeptides, or one or more mRNAs encoding the polypeptide(s).


In the context of a CRISPR/Cas or CRISPR/Cpf1 system, the site-directed polypeptide can bind to a gRNA that, in turn, specifies the site in the target DNA to which the polypeptide is directed. In embodiments of CRISPR/Cas or CRISPR/Cpf1 systems herein, the site-directed polypeptide is an endonuclease, such as a DNA endonuclease.


In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has a plurality of nucleic acid-cleaving (i.e., nuclease) domains. Two or more nucleic acid-cleaving domains can be linked together via a linker. In some embodiments, the linker is a flexible linker. Linkers can have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40 or more amino acids in length.


Naturally-occurring wild type Cas9 enzymes have two nuclease domains, an HNH nuclease domain and a RuvC domain. Herein, the “Cas9” refers to both naturally-occurring and recombinant Cas9s. Cas9 enzymes contemplated herein have an HNH or HNH-like nuclease domain, and/or a RuvC or RuvC-like nuclease domain.


HNH and HNH-like domains have a McrA-like fold. HNH and HNH-like domains have two antiparallel β-strands and an α-helix, and have a metal binding site (e.g., a divalent cation binding site). HNH and HNH-like domains can cleave one strand of a target nucleic acid (e.g., the complementary strand of a crRNA targeted strand).


RuvC and RuvC-like domains have an RNaseH or RNaseH-like fold. RuvC/RNaseH domains are involved in a diverse set of nucleic acid-based functions, and act on both RNA and DNA. The RNaseH domain has five β-strands surrounded by a plurality of α-helices. RuvC/RNaseH and RuvC/RNaseH-like domains have a metal binding site (e.g., a divalent cation binding site), and can cleave one strand of a target nucleic acid (e.g., the non-complementary strand of a double-stranded target DNA).


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 99%, or 100% amino acid sequence identity to a wild type exemplary site-directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9 from S. pyogenes, US2014/0068797 Sequence ID No. 8, or R. Sapranauskas et al., Nuc Acids Res (2011) 39(21):9275-82), and other site-directed polypeptides).


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 99%, or 100% amino acid sequence identity to the nuclease domain of a wild type exemplary site-directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9 from S. pyogenes).


In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide is a DNA endonuclease having at least 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9 from S. pyogenes) over 10 contiguous amino acids. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has at most: 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide over 10 contiguous amino acids. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has at least: 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide over 10 contiguous amino acids in an HNH nuclease domain of the site-directed polypeptide. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has at most: 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide over 10 contiguous amino acids in an HNH nuclease domain of the site-directed polypeptide. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has at least: 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide over 10 contiguous amino acids in a RuvC nuclease domain of the site-directed polypeptide. In some embodiments, a site-directed polypeptide has at most: 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 97, 99, or 100% identity to a wild type site-directed polypeptide over 10 contiguous amino acids in a RuvC nuclease domain of the site-directed polypeptide.


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has a modified form of a wild type exemplary site-directed polypeptide. The modified form of the wild-type exemplary site-directed polypeptide has a mutation that reduces the nucleic acid-cleaving activity of the site-directed polypeptide. In some embodiments, the modified form of the wild type exemplary site-directed polypeptide has less than 90%, less than 80%, less than 70%, less than 60%, less than 50%, less than 40%, less than 30%, less than 20%, less than 10%, less than 5%, or less than 1% of the nucleic acid-cleaving activity of the wild type exemplary site-directed polypeptide. The modified form of the site-directed polypeptide can have no substantial nucleic acid-cleaving activity. When a site-directed polypeptide is a modified form that has no substantial nucleic acid-cleaving activity, it is referred to herein as “enzymatically inactive.”


In some embodiments, the modified form of the site-directed polypeptide has a mutation such that it can induce a single-strand break (SSB) on a target nucleic acid (e.g., by cutting only one of the sugar-phosphate backbones of a double-strand target nucleic acid). In some embodiments, the mutation results in less than 90%, less than 80%, less than 70%, less than 60%, less than 50%, less than 40%, less than 30%, less than 20%, less than 10%, less than 5%, or less than 1% of the nucleic acid-cleaving activity in one or more of the plurality of nucleic acid-cleaving domains of the wild type site directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9 from S. pyogenes). In some embodiments, the mutation results in one or more of the plurality of nucleic acid-cleaving domains retaining the ability to cleave the complementary strand of the target nucleic acid, but reducing its ability to cleave the non-complementary strand of the target nucleic acid. In some embodiments, the mutation results in one or more of the plurality of nucleic acid-cleaving domains retaining the ability to cleave the non-complementary strand of the target nucleic acid, but reducing its ability to cleave the complementary strand of the target nucleic acid. For example, residues in the wild type exemplary S. pyogenes Cas9 polypeptide, such as Asp10, His840, Asn854 and Asn856, are mutated to inactivate one or more of the plurality of nucleic acid-cleaving domains (e.g., nuclease domains). In some embodiments, the residues to be mutated correspond to residues Asp10, His840, Asn854 and Asn856 in the wild type exemplary S. pyogenes Cas9 polypeptide (e.g., as determined by sequence and/or structural alignment). Non-limiting examples of mutations include D10A, H840A, N854A and N856A. One skilled in the art will recognize that mutations other than alanine substitutions are suitable.


In some embodiments, a D10A mutation is combined with one or more of H840A, N854A, or N856A mutations to produce a site-directed polypeptide substantially lacking DNA cleavage activity. In some embodiments, a H840A mutation is combined with one or more of D10A, N854A, or N856A mutations to produce a site-directed polypeptide substantially lacking DNA cleavage activity. In some embodiments, a N854A mutation is combined with one or more of H840A, D10A, or N856A mutations to produce a site-directed polypeptide substantially lacking DNA cleavage activity. In some embodiments, a N856A mutation is combined with one or more of H840A, N854A, or D10A mutations to produce a site-directed polypeptide substantially lacking DNA cleavage activity. Site-directed polypeptides that have one substantially inactive nuclease domain are referred to as “nickases”.


In some embodiments, variants of RNA-guided endonucleases, for example Cas9, can be used to increase the specificity of CRISPR-mediated genome editing. Wild type Cas9 is generally guided by a single guide RNA designed to hybridize with a specified ˜20 nucleotide sequence in the target sequence (such as an endogenous genomic locus). However, several mismatches can be tolerated between the guide RNA and the target locus, effectively reducing the length of required homology in the target site to, for example, as little as 13 nt of homology, and thereby resulting in elevated potential for binding and double-strand nucleic acid cleavage by the CRISPR/Cas9 complex elsewhere in the target genome—also known as off-target cleavage. Because nickase variants of Cas9 each only cut one strand, in order to create a double-strand break it is necessary for a pair of nickases to bind in close proximity and on opposite strands of the target nucleic acid, thereby creating a pair of nicks, which is the equivalent of a double-strand break. This requires that two separate gRNAs—one for each nickase—must bind in close proximity and on opposite strands of the target nucleic acid. This requirement essentially doubles the minimum length of homology needed for the double-strand break to occur, thereby reducing the likelihood that a double-strand cleavage event will occur elsewhere in the genome, where the two gRNA sites—if they exist—are unlikely to be sufficiently close to each other to enable the double-strand break to occur. As described in the art, nickases can also be used to promote HDR versus NHEJ. HDR can be used to introduce selected changes into target sites in the genome through the use of specific donor sequences that effectively mediate the desired changes. Descriptions of CRISPR/Cas systems for use in gene editing can be found, e.g., in international patent application publication number WO2013/176772, and in J. D. Sander et al., Nature Biotech (2014) 32:347-55, and references cited therein.

In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide targets DNA. In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide targets RNA.


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has one or more non-native sequences (e.g., the site-directed polypeptide is a fusion protein).


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium (e.g., S. pyogenes), a nucleic acid binding domain, and two nucleic acid cleaving domains (e.g., an HNH domain and a RuvC domain).


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium, and two nucleic acid cleaving domains (i.e., an HNH domain and a RuvC domain).


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium, and two nucleic acid cleaving domains, wherein one or both of the nucleic acid cleaving domains have at least 50% amino acid identity to a nuclease domain from Cas9 from a bacterium.


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium, two nucleic acid cleaving domains (e.g., an HNH domain and a RuvC domain), and a non-native sequence (for example, a nuclear localization signal) or a linker linking the site-directed polypeptide to a non-native sequence.


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium, and two nucleic acid cleaving domains (e.g., an HNH domain and a RuvC domain), wherein the site-directed polypeptide has a mutation in one or both of the nucleic acid cleaving domains that reduces the cleaving activity of the nuclease domains by at least 50%.


In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide has an amino acid sequence having at least 15% amino acid identity to a Cas9 from a bacterium, and two nucleic acid cleaving domains (e.g., an HNH domain and a RuvC domain), wherein one of the nuclease domains has mutation of aspartic acid 10, and/or wherein one of the nuclease domains has mutation of histidine 840, and wherein the mutation reduces the cleaving activity of the nuclease domain(s) by at least 50%.


In some embodiments, the one or more site-directed polypeptides, such as DNA endonucleases, include two nickases that together effect one double-strand break at a specific locus in the genome, or four nickases that together effect two double-strand breaks at specific loci in the genome. Alternatively, one site-directed polypeptide affects one double-strand break at a specific locus in the genome.


In some embodiments, a polynucleotide encoding a site-directed polypeptide can be used to edit a genome. In some of such embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding a site-directed polypeptide is codon-optimized according to methods known in the art for expression in the cell containing the target DNA of interest. For example, if the intended target nucleic acid is in a human cell, a human codon-optimized polynucleotide encoding Cas9 can be used to produce the Cas9 polypeptide.


The following provides some examples of site-directed polypeptides that can be used in embodiments of the disclosures.


CRISPR Endonuclease System


A CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) genomic locus can be found in the genomes of many prokaryotes (e.g., bacteria and archaea). In prokaryotes, the CRISPR locus encodes products that function as a type of immune system to help defend the prokaryotes against foreign invaders, such as virus and phage. There are three stages of CRISPR locus function: integration of new sequences into the CRISPR locus, expression of CRISPR RNA (crRNA), and silencing of foreign invader nucleic acid. Five types of CRISPR systems (e.g., Type I, Type II, Type III, Type U, and Type V) have been identified.


A CRISPR locus includes a number of short repeating sequences referred to as “repeats.” When expressed, the repeats can form secondary hairpin structures (e.g., hairpins) and/or have unstructured single-stranded sequences. The repeats usually occur in clusters and frequently diverge between species. The repeats are regularly interspaced with unique intervening sequences referred to as “spacers,” resulting in a repeat-spacer-repeat locus architecture. The spacers are identical to or have high homology with known foreign invader sequences. A spacer-repeat unit encodes a crRNA, which is processed into a mature form of the spacer-repeat unit. A crRNA has a “seed” or spacer sequence that is involved in targeting a target nucleic acid (in the naturally occurring form in prokaryotes, the spacer sequence targets the foreign invader nucleic acid). A spacer sequence is located at the 5′ or 3′ end of the crRNA.


A CRISPR locus also has polynucleotide sequences encoding CRISPR Associated (Cas) genes. Cas genes encode endonucleases involved in the biogenesis and the interference stages of crRNA function in prokaryotes. Some Cas genes have homologous secondary and/or tertiary structures.


Type II CRISPR Systems


crRNA biogenesis in a Type II CRISPR system in nature requires a trans-activating CRISPR RNA (tracrRNA). The tracrRNA is modified by endogenous RNaselll, and then hybridizes to a crRNA repeat in the pre-crRNA array. Endogenous RNaseIII is recruited to cleave the pre-crRNA. Cleaved crRNAs are subjected to exoribonuclease trimming to produce the mature crRNA form (e.g., 5′ trimming). The tracrRNA remains hybridized to the crRNA, and the tracrRNA and the crRNA associate with a site-directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9). The crRNA of the crRNA-tracrRNA-Cas9 complex guides the complex to a target nucleic acid to which the crRNA can hybridize. Hybridization of the crRNA to the target nucleic acid activates Cas9 for targeted nucleic acid cleavage. The target nucleic acid in a Type II CRISPR system is referred to as a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM). In nature, the PAM is essential to facilitate binding of a site-directed polypeptide (e.g., Cas9) to the target nucleic acid. Type II systems (also referred to as Nmeni or CASS4) are further subdivided into Type II-A (CASS4) and II-B (CASS4a). M. Jinek et al., supra, reported that the CRISPR/Cas9 system is useful for RNA-programmable genome editing, and international patent application publication number WO 2013/176772 provides numerous examples and applications of the CRISPR/Cas endonuclease system for site-specific gene editing.


Type V CRISPR Systems


Type V CRISPR systems have several important differences from Type II systems. For example, Cpf1 is a single RNA-guided endonuclease that, in contrast to Type II systems, lacks tracrRNA. In fact, Cpf1-associated CRISPR arrays are processed into mature crRNAS without the requirement of an additional trans-activating tracrRNA. The Type V CRISPR array is processed into short mature crRNAs of 42-44 nucleotides in length, with each mature crRNA beginning with 19 nucleotides of direct repeat followed by 23-25 nucleotides of spacer sequence. In contrast, mature crRNAs in Type II systems start with 20-24 nucleotides of spacer sequence followed by about 22 nucleotides of direct repeat. Also, Cpf1 utilizes a T-rich protospacer-adjacent motif such that Cpf1-crRNA complexes efficiently cleave target DNA preceded by a short T-rich PAM, which is in contrast to the G-rich PAM following the target DNA for Type II systems. Thus, Type V systems cleave at a point that is distant from the PAM, while Type II systems cleave at a point that is adjacent to the PAM. In addition, in contrast to Type II systems, Cpf1 cleaves DNA via a staggered DNA double-stranded break with a four or five nucleotide 5′ overhang. Type II systems cleave via a blunt double-stranded break. Similar to Type II systems, Cpf1 contains a predicted RuvC-like endonuclease domain, but lacks a second HNH endonuclease domain, which is in contrast to Type II systems.


Cas Genes/Polypeptides and Protospacer Adjacent Motifs


Exemplary CRISPR/Cas polypeptides include the Cas9 polypeptides in FIG. 1 of I. Fonfara et al., Nucleic Acids Res. (2014) 42:2577-90. The CRISPR/Cas gene naming system has undergone extensive rewriting since the Cas genes were discovered. FIG. 5 of Fonfara, supra, provides PAM sequences for the Cas9 polypeptides from different species.


Complexes of a Genome-Targeting Nucleic Acid and a Site-Directed Polypeptide


A genome-targeting nucleic acid interacts with a site-directed polypeptide (e.g., a nucleic acid-guided nuclease such as Cas9), thereby forming a complex. The genome-targeting nucleic acid (e.g., gRNA) guides the site-directed polypeptide to a target nucleic acid.


As stated previously, in some embodiments the site-directed polypeptide and genome-targeting nucleic acid can each be administered separately to a cell or a subject. In some embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide can be pre-complexed with one or more guide RNAs, or one or more crRNA together with a tracrRNA. The pre-complexed material can then be administered to a cell or a subject. Such pre-complexed material is known as a ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP).

Methods of Genome Edition


Provided herein is a method of genome editing, in particular, inserting a synthetic FVIII protein thereof into the genome of a cell. This method can be used to treat a subject, e.g., a patient having hemophilia A and in such a case, a cell can be isolated from the subject or a separate donor. Then, the chromosomal DNA of the cell is edited using the materials and methods described herein.


Provided herein are methods to knock-in a synthetic FVIII coding sequence into a genome. In one aspect, the present disclosure provides insertion of a nucleic acid sequence of a synthetic FVIII coding sequence, i.e., a nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII protein into a genome of a cell. The synthetic FVIII protein can include a peptide that has a substantial activity of the wild type FVIII protein, e.g., at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 95% or about 100% of the activity that the wild type FVIII protein exhibits. In some embodiments, one having ordinary skill in the art can use a number of methods known in the field to test the functionality or activity of a compound, e.g., peptide or protein. In some embodiments, the synthetic FVIII protein can also include any fragment of the wild type FVIII protein or fragment of a modified FVIII protein that has conservative modification on one or more of amino acid residues in the full length, wild type FVIII protein. In some embodiments, the synthetic FVIII protein can also include any modification(s), e.g., deletion, insertion and/or mutation of one or more amino acids that do not substantially negatively affect the functionality of the wild type FVIII protein. Thus, in some embodiments, the nucleic acid sequence of a synthetic FVIII coding sequence can have at least about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98% or about 99% nucleic acid sequence identity to the FVIII coding sequence.


In some embodiments, a synthetic FVIII coding sequence is inserted into a genomic sequence in a cell. In some embodiments, the insertion site is at or within an albumin locus, a transferrin locus, or a fibrinogen alpha locus, in the genome of the cell. In some embodiments, the insertion site is an albumin locus. The insertion method uses one or more gRNAs targeting the first intron (or intron 1) of an albumin gene. In some embodiments, the donor DNA is single or double-stranded DNA having a synthetic FVIII coding sequence.


In some embodiments, the genome editing methods utilize a DNA endonuclease such as a CRISPR/Cas system to genetically introduce (knock-in) a synthetic FVIII coding sequence. In some embodiments, the DNA endonuclease is a Cas1, Cas1B, Cas2, Cas3, Cas4, Cas5, Cas6, Cas7, Cas8, Cas9 (also known as Csn1 and Csx12), Cas100, Csyl, Csy2, Csy3, Cse1, Cse2, Csc1, Csc2, Csa5, Csn2, Csm2, Csm3, Csm4, Csm5, Csm6, Cmr1, Cmr3, Cmr4, Cmr5, Cmr6, Csb1, Csb2, Csb3, Csx17, Csx14, Csx10, Csx16, CsaX, Csx3, Csx1, Csx15, Csf1, Csf2, Csf3, Csf4, or Cpf1 endonuclease, a homolog thereof, recombination of the naturally occurring molecule, codon-optimized, or modified version thereof, and combinations of any of the foregoing. In some embodiments, the DNA endonuclease is Cas9. In some embodiments, the Cas9 is from Streptococcus pyogenes (spCas9). In some embodiments, the Cas9 is from Staphylococcus lugdunensis (SluCas9).


In some embodiments, the cell subject to the genome-edition has one or more mutation(s) in the genome which results in reduction of the expression of endogenous FVIII gene as compared to the expression in a normal that does not have such mutation(s). The normal cell can be a healthy or control cell that is originated (or isolated) from a different subject who does not have FVIII gene defects. In some embodiments, the cell subject to the genome-edition can be originated (or isolated) from a subject who is in need of treatment of FVIII gene-related condition or disorder, e.g., hemophilia A. Therefore, in some embodiments the expression of the endogenous FVIII gene in such cell is about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90% or about 100% reduced as compared to the expression of endogenous FVIII gene expression in the normal cell.


In some embodiments, the genome editing methods conducts targeted integration (at a non-coding region of the genome) of a functional FVIII coding sequence, e.g., a FVIII coding sequence that is operably linked to a supplied promoter so as to stably generate FVIII protein in vivo. In some embodiments, the targeted integration of a FVIII coding sequence occurs in an intron of an albumin gene that is highly expressed in the cell type of interest, e.g., hepatocytes or sinusoidal endothelial cells.


In one aspect, the nucleic acid sequence of a synthetic FVIII coding sequence is inserted into a genome of a cell. In embodiments, the synthetic FVIII coding sequence to be inserted is a modified FVIII coding sequence. In some embodiments, in the modified FVIII coding sequence the B domain of the wild type FVIII coding sequence is deleted and replaced with a B domain substitute. In some embodiments, a synthetic FVIII is superior to a full length wild type FVIII because of its smaller size (4371 bp vs 7053 bp). Thus, in some embodiments the synthetic FVIII coding sequence lacking the FVIII signal peptide and containing a splice acceptor sequence at its 5′ end (N-terminus of the FVIII coding sequence) is integrated specifically into intron 1 of a gene locus in the hepatocytes of mammals, including humans. In an embodiment, the gene locus is an albumin locus. In another embodiment, the gene locus is a transferrin locus. In another embodiment, the gene locus is a fibrinogen alpha locus.


The transcription of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence from a transferrin promoter can result in a pre-mRNA that contains exon 1 of transferrin, part of intron 1 and the integrated synthetic FVIII coding sequence. When this pre-mRNA undergoes the natural splicing process to remove the introns, the splicing machinery can join the splice donor at the 3′ side of transferrin exon 1 to the next available splice acceptor which will be the splice acceptor at the 5′ end of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence of the inserted DNA donor. This can result in a mature mRNA containing transferrin exon 1 fused to the mature coding sequence for the synthetic FVIII.


The transcription of this synthetic FVIII coding sequence from an albumin promoter can result in a pre-mRNA that contains exon 1 of albumin, part of intron 1 and the integrated synthetic FVIII coding sequence. When this pre-mRNA undergoes the natural splicing process to remove the introns, the splicing machinery can join the splice donor at the 3′ side of albumin exon 1 to the next available splice acceptor which will be the splice acceptor at the 5′ end of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence of the inserted DNA donor. This can result in a mature mRNA containing albumin exon 1 fused to the mature coding sequence for synthetic FVIII. Exon 1 of albumin encodes the signal peptide plus two additional amino acids and one third of a codon that in humans normally encodes the protein sequence DAH at the N-terminus of albumin. Therefore, in some embodiments after the predicted cleavage of an albumin signal peptide during secretion from the cell a synthetic FVIII protein can be generated that has three additional amino acid residues added to the N-terminus resulting in the amino acid sequence -DAHATRRYY (SEQ ID NO: 300)- at the N-terminus of the synthetic FVIII protein. Because the third of these three amino acids (underlined) is encoded partly by the end of exon 1 and partly by the synthetic FVIII DNA donor template, it is possible to select the identity of the third additional amino acid residue to be either Leu, Pro, His, Gln or Arg. Among these options Leu is used in some embodiments since Leu is the least molecularly complex and thus least likely to form a new T-cell epitope, resulting in the amino acid sequence -DALATRRYY- at the N-terminus of the synthetic FVIII protein. Alternatively, the DNA donor template can be designed to delete the third residue resulting in the amino acid sequence DALTRRYY at the N-terminus of the synthetic FVIII protein. In some cases, adding additional amino acids to the sequence of a native protein can increase the immunogenicity risk. Therefore in some embodiments where an in silico analysis to predict the potential immunogenicity of the two potential options for the N-terminus of synthetic FVIII demonstrates that the deletion of one residue (DALTRRYY) has a lower immunogenicity score, this can be a design at least in some embodiments.


In some embodiments, a DNA sequence encoding synthetic FVIII in which the codon usage has been optimized can be used to improve the expression in mammalian cells (so-called “codon optimization”). Different computer algorithms are also available in the field for performing codon optimization and these generate distinct DNA sequences (V. P. Mauro et al., Trends Mol Med (2014) 20:604-13). Examples of commercially available codon optimization algorithms are those employed by companies ATUM and GeneArt (part of Thermo Fisher Scientific). Codon optimization of the FVIII coding sequence was demonstrated to significantly improve the expression of FVIII after gene based delivery to mice (A. C. Nathwani et al., Blood (2006) 107(7):2653-61.; N. J. Ward et al., Blood (2011) 117(3):798-807; P. A. Radcliffe et al., Gene Ther. (2008) 15(4):289-97). Codon optimization is an established approach for improving the expression of a coding sequence of interest, and is based primarily on the substitution of less frequently used codons for more frequently used codons, without alteration of the encoded amino acid sequence. Since the initial recognition that codon bias can influence protein expression, the methodology for codon optimization has evolved and algorithms are commercially available including those provided by DNA synthesis companies such as GeneArt and ATUM. These commercially available algorithms are available free to users as part of the DNA synthesis service, and are designed to also remove cryptic splicing signals and even out the G/C content across the coding sequence. Delivery of exogenous nucleic acids to cells in vivo can induce an innate immune response that is driven at least in part by the recognition of CG dinucleotides (also called CpG sequences) by the Toll receptor system, and reduction of the CG dinucleotide content is proposed as a way to reduce the innate immune response to these nucleic acids, particularly when plasmid DNA is the delivery vector. See also P. Colella et al., Mol Ther Methods Clin Dev (2018) 8:87-104. When the naturally occurring (native) coding sequence for a gene is optimized for expression in mammalian species, the number of CG dinucleotides is generally increased because the more frequently used codons contain a higher frequency of G and C nucleotides at the 3rd (wobble) position of the codon. Thus, the increase in the overall content of G and C nucleotides in the coding sequence will result in higher content of GC dinucleotides.


In some embodiments, the sequence homology or identity between a synthetic FVIII coding sequence that was codon optimized by different algorithms and the native FVIII sequence (as present in the human genome) can range from about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, or 100%. In some embodiments, the codon-optimized synthetic FVIII coding sequence has between about 75% to about 79% of sequence homology or identity to the native FVIII sequence. In some embodiments, the codon-optimized synthetic FVIII coding sequence has about 70%, about 71%, about 72%, about 73%, about 74%, about 75%, about 76%, about 77%, about 78%, about 79% or about 80% of sequence homology or identity to the native FVIII sequence.


In some embodiments, a donor template or donor construct is prepared to contain a DNA sequence encoding synthetic FVIII. In some embodiments, a DNA donor template is designed to contain a codon optimized human synthetic FVIII coding sequence. In some embodiments, the codon-optimization is done in such a way that the sequence at the 5′ end encoding the signal peptide of FVIII has been deleted and replaced with a splice acceptor sequence, and in addition a polyadenylation signal is added to the 3′ end after the FVIII stop codon (MAB8A—SEQ ID NO: 301). The splice acceptor sequence can be selected from among known splice acceptor sequences from known genes or a consensus splice acceptor sequence can be used that is derived from an alignment of many splice acceptor sequences known in the field. In some embodiments, a splice acceptor sequence from highly expressed genes is used since such sequences are thought to provide optimal splicing efficiency. In some embodiments, the consensus splicing acceptor sequence is composed of a Branch site with the consensus sequence T/CNC/TT/CA/GAC/T (SEQ ID NO: 302) followed within 20 bp with a polypyrimidine tract (C or T) of 10 to 12 bases followed by AG>G/A in which the > is the location of the intron/exon boundary. In one embodiment, a synthetic splice acceptor sequence (ctgacctcttctcttcctcccacag—SEQ ID NO: 303) is used. In another embodiment, the native splice acceptor sequence from an albumin gene intron 1/exon 2 boundary of human (TTAACAATCCTTTTTTTTCTTCCCTTGCCCAG—SEQ ID NO: 304) or mouse (ttaaatatgttgtgtggtttttctctccctgtttccacag—SEQ ID NO: 305) is used.


The polyadenylation sequence provides a signal for the cell to add a polyA tail which is essential for the stability of the mRNA within the cell. In some embodiments that the DNA-donor template is going to be packaged into AAV particles, embodiments of the invention keep the size of the packaged DNA within the packaging limits for AAV which can be less than about 5 Kb, or not more than about 4.7 Kb. Thus, in some embodiments a polyA sequence as short as possible is used, e.g., about 10-mer, about 20-mer, about 30-mer, about 40-mer, about 50-mer or about 60-mer or any intervening number of nucleotides of the foregoing. A consensus synthetic poly A signal sequence has been described in the literature (N. Levitt et al., Genes Dev (1989) 3(7):1019-25) with the sequence AATAAAAGATCTTTATTTTCATTAGATCTGTGTGTTGGTTTTTTGTGTG (SEQ ID NO: 306) and is commonly used in numerous expression vectors.


In some embodiments, additional sequence elements can be added to the DNA donor template to improve the integration frequency. One such element is homology arms. A sequence from the left side of the double-strand break (LHA) is appended to the 5′ (N-terminal to the FVIII coding sequence) end of the DNA donor template and a sequence from the right side of the double-strand break (RHA) is appended to the 3′ (C-terminal of the FVIII coding sequence) end of the DNA donor template for example MAB8B (SEQ ID NO: 308).


An alternative DNA donor template design that is provided in some embodiments has a sequence complementary to the recognition sequence for the sgRNA that will be used to cleave the genomic site. MAB8C (SEQ ID NO: 309) represents an example of this type of DNA donor templates. By including the sgRNA recognition site the DNA donor template will be cleaved by the sgRNA/Cas9 complex inside the nucleus of the cell to which the DNA donor template and the sgRNA/Cas9 have been delivered. Cleavage of the donor template into linear fragments can increase the frequency of integration at a double-strand break by the non-homologous end joining mechanism or by the HDR mechanism. This can be particularly beneficial in the case of delivery of donor templates packaged in AAV because after delivery to the nucleus the AAV genomes are known to concatemerize to form larger circular double-stranded DNA molecules (H. Nakai et al., J Virol (2001) 75:6969-76). Therefore, in some cases the circular concatemers can be less efficient donors for integration at double-strand breaks, particularly by the NHEJ mechanism. It was reported previously that the efficiency of targeted integration using circular plasmid DNA donor templates could be increased by including zinc finger nuclease cut sites in the plasmid (S. Cristea et al., Biotechnol. Bioeng. (2013) 110:871-80). More recently this approach was also applied using the CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease (K. Suzuki et al., Nature (2017) 540:144-49). While a sgRNA recognition sequence is active when present on either strand of a double-stranded DNA donor template, use of the reverse complement of the sgRNA recognition sequence that is present in the genome is predicted to favor stable integration because integration in the reverse orientation re-creates the sgRNA recognition sequence which can be recut thereby releasing the inserted donor template. Integration of such a donor template in the genome in the forward orientation by NHEJ is predicted to not re-create the sgRNA recognition sequence such that the integrated donor template cannot be excised out of the genome. The benefit of including sgRNA recognition sequences in the donor with or without homology arms upon the efficiency of integration of FVIII donor template can be tested and determined, e.g., in mice using AAV for delivery of the donor and LNP (lipid nanoparticle) for delivery of the CRISPR/CAS9 components.

Target Sequence Selection


In some embodiments, shifts in the location of the 5′ boundary and/or the 3′ boundary relative to particular reference loci are used to facilitate or enhance particular applications of gene editing, which depend in part on the endonuclease system selected for the editing, as further described and illustrated herein.


In a first, non-limiting aspect of such target sequence selection, many endonuclease systems have rules or criteria that guide the initial selection of potential target sites for cleavage, such as the requirement of a PAM sequence motif in a particular position adjacent to the DNA cleavage sites in the case of CRISPR Type II or Type V endonucleases.


In another, non-limiting aspect of target sequence selection or optimization, the frequency of “off-target” activity for a particular combination of target sequence and DNA endonuclease (i.e., the frequency of double-strand breaks occurring at sites other than the selected target sequence) is assessed relative to the frequency of on-target activity. In some cases, cells that have been correctly edited at the desired locus can have a selective advantage relative to other cells. Illustrative, but non-limiting, examples of a selective advantage include the acquisition of attributes such as enhanced rates of replication, persistence, resistance to certain conditions, enhanced rates of successful engraftment or persistence in vivo following introduction into a subject, and other attributes associated with the maintenance or increased numbers or viability of such cells. In other cases, cells that have been correctly edited at the desired locus can be positively selected for by one or more screening methods used to identify, sort or otherwise select for cells that have been correctly edited. Both selective advantage and directed selection methods can take advantage of the phenotype associated with the correction. In some embodiments, cells can be edited two or more times to create a second modification that creates a new phenotype that is used to select or purify the intended population of cells. Such a second modification could be created by adding a second gRNA for a selectable or screenable marker. In some cases, cells can be correctly edited at the desired locus using a DNA fragment that contains the cDNA and also a selectable marker.


In embodiments, whether any selective advantage is applicable or any directed selection is to be applied in a particular case, target sequence selection is also guided by consideration of off-target frequencies to enhance the effectiveness of the application and/or reduce the potential for undesired alterations at sites other than the desired target. As described further and illustrated herein and in the art, the occurrence of off-target activity is influenced by a number of factors, including similarities and dissimilarities between the target site and off-target sites, as well as the particular endonuclease used. Bioinformatics tools are available that assist in the prediction of off-target activity, and frequently such tools can also be used to identify the most likely sites of off-target activity, which can then be assessed in experimental settings to evaluate relative frequencies of off-target to on-target activity, thereby allowing the selection of sequences that have higher relative on-target activities. Examples of such techniques are provided herein, and others are known in the art.


Another aspect of target sequence selection relates to homologous recombination events. Sequences sharing regions of homology can serve as focal points for homologous recombination events that result in deletion of intervening sequences. Such recombination events occur during the normal course of replication of chromosomes and other DNA sequences, and also when DNA sequences are being synthesized, such as in the case of repairs of double-strand breaks (DSBs). DSBs occur on a regular basis during the normal cell replication cycle, but can also be enhanced by factors such as UV light and other inducers of DNA breakage, or the presence of agents such as chemical inducers. Many such inducers cause DSBs to occur indiscriminately in the genome, and DSBs are regularly induced and repaired in normal cells. During repair, the original sequence can be reconstructed with complete fidelity, however, in some cases, small indels are introduced at the DSB site.


DSBs can also be specifically induced at particular locations, as in the case of the endonucleases systems described herein, which can be used to cause directed or preferential gene modification events at selected chromosomal locations. The tendency for homologous sequences to be subject to recombination in the context of DNA repair (as well as replication) can be taken advantage of in a number of circumstances, and is the basis for one application of gene editing systems, such as CRISPR, in which homology directed repair is used to insert a sequence of interest, provided through use of a donor template, into a desired chromosomal location.


Regions of homology between particular sequences, which can be small regions of “microhomology” that can have as few as ten base pairs or less, can also be used to bring about desired deletions. For example, a single DSB is introduced at a site that exhibits microhomology with a nearby sequence. During the normal course of repair of such DSB, a result that occurs with high frequency is the deletion of the intervening sequence as a result of recombination being facilitated by the DSB and concomitant cellular repair process.


In some circumstances, however, selecting target sequences within regions of homology can also give rise to much larger deletions, including gene fusions (when the deletions are in coding regions), which can or cannot be desired given the particular circumstances.


The examples provided herein further illustrate the selection of target regions for the creation of DSBs designed to insert a FVIII coding sequence, as well as the selection of specific target sequences within such regions that are designed to minimize off-target events relative to on-target events.


Targeted Integration


In some embodiments, the method provided herein is to integrate a synthetic FVIII coding sequence at a specific location in the genome of the hepatocytes which is referred to as “targeted integration”. In some embodiments, targeted integration is enabled by using a sequence-specific nuclease to generate a double-strand break in the genomic DNA.


The CRISPR/CAS system used in some embodiments has the advantage that a large number of genomic targets can be rapidly screened to identify an optimal CRISPR/CAS design. sgRNA molecules that target any region of the genome can be designed in silico by locating the 20 bp sequence adjacent to all PAM motifs. PAM motifs occur on average every 15 bp in the genome of eukaryotes. However, sgRNA designed by in silico methods will generate double-strand breaks in cells with differing efficiencies, and it is not presently possible to predict the cutting efficiencies of a series of sgRNA molecule using in silico methods. Because sgRNA can be rapidly synthesized in vitro, this enables the rapid screening of all potential sgRNA sequences in a given genomic region to identify the sgRNA that results in the most efficient cutting. Generally, when a series of sgRNA within a given genomic region are tested in cells a range of cleavage efficiencies between 0 and 90% is observed. In silico algorithms as well as laboratory experiments can also be used to determine the off-target potential of any given sgRNA. While a perfect match to the 20 bp recognition sequence of a sgRNA will primarily occur only once in most eukaryotic genomes there will be a number of additional sites in the genome with one or more base pair mismatches to the sgRNA. These sites can be cleaved at variable frequencies which are often not predictable based on the number or location of the mismatches. Cleavage at additional off-target sites that were not identified by the in silico analysis can also occur. Thus, screening a number of sgRNA in a relevant cell type to identify sgRNA that have the most favorable off-target profile is a critical component of selecting an optimal sgRNA for therapeutic use. A favorable off-target profile takes into account not only the number of actual off-target sites and the frequency of cutting at these sites, but also the location of these sites in the genome. For example, off-target sites close to or within functionally important genes, particularly oncogenes or anti-oncogenes are considered less favorable than sites in intergenic regions with no known function. Thus, the identification of an optimal sgRNA cannot be predicted simply by in silico analysis of the genomic sequence of an organism but requires experimental testing. While in silico analysis can be helpful in narrowing down the number of guides to test, it cannot predict guides that have high on-target cutting, or predict guides with low desirable off-target cutting. Experimental data indicates that the cutting efficiency of sgRNA that each has a perfect match to the genome in a region of interest (such as an albumin intron 1) varies from no cutting to >90% cutting, and is not predictable by any known algorithm. The ability of a given sgRNA to promote cleavage by a Cas enzyme can relate to the accessibility of that specific site in the genomic DNA, which can be determined by the chromatin structure in that region. While the majority of the genomic DNA in a quiescent differentiated cell, such as a hepatocyte, exists in highly condensed heterochromatin, regions that are actively transcribed exist in more open chromatin states that are known to be more accessible to large molecules such as proteins like the Cas protein. Even within actively transcribed genes, some specific regions of the DNA are more accessible than others due to the presence or absence of bound transcription factors or other regulatory proteins. Predicting sites in the genome or within a specific genomic locus or region of a genomic locus such as an intron, and such as albumin intron 1 is not possible and therefore would need to be determined experimentally in a relevant cell type. Once some sites are selected as potential sites for insertion, it can be possible to add some variations to such a site, e.g., by moving a few nucleotides upstream or downstream from the selected sites, with or without experimental tests.


In some embodiments, gRNAs that can be used in the methods disclosed herein are one or more of SEQ ID NOs: 271-298, or any functional equivalents thereof having at least about 85% nucleotide sequence identity to those of SEQ ID NOs: 271-298.


Nucleic Acid Modifications


In some embodiments, polynucleotides introduced into cells have one or more modifications that can be used individually or in combination, for example, to enhance activity, stability or specificity, alter delivery, reduce innate immune responses in host cells, or for other enhancements, as further described herein and known in the art.


In certain embodiments, modified polynucleotides are used in the CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 system, in which case the guide RNAs (either single-molecule guides or double-molecule guides) and/or a DNA or an RNA encoding a Cas or Cpf1 endonuclease introduced into a cell can be modified, as described and illustrated below. Such modified polynucleotides can be used in the CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 system to edit any one or more genomic loci.


Using the CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 system for purposes of non-limiting illustrations of such uses, modifications of guide RNAs can be used to enhance the formation or stability of the CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 genome editing complex having gRNAs, which can be single-molecule guides or double-molecule, and a Cas or Cpf1 endonuclease. Modifications of gRNAs can also or alternatively be used to enhance the initiation, stability or kinetics of interactions between the genome editing complex with the target sequence in the genome, which can be used, for example, to enhance on-target activity. Modifications of guide RNAs can also or alternatively be used to enhance specificity, e.g., the relative rates of genome editing at the on-target site as compared to effects at other (off-target) sites.


Modifications can also or alternatively be used to increase the stability of a guide RNA, e.g., by increasing its resistance to degradation by ribonucleases (RNases) present in a cell, thereby causing its half-life in the cell to be increased. Modifications enhancing guide RNA half-life can be particularly useful in embodiments in which a Cas or Cpf1 endonuclease is introduced into the cell to be edited via an RNA that needs to be translated in order to generate endonuclease, because increasing the half-life of guide RNAs introduced at the same time as the RNA encoding the endonuclease can be used to increase the time that the guide RNAs and the encoded Cas or Cpf1 endonuclease co-exist in the cell.


Modifications can also or alternatively be used to decrease the likelihood or degree to which RNAs introduced into cells elicit innate immune responses. Such responses, which have been well characterized in the context of RNA interference (RNAi), including small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs), as described below and in the art, tend to be associated with reduced half-life of the RNA and/or the elicitation of cytokines or other factors associated with immune responses.


One or more types of modifications can also be made to RNAs encoding an endonuclease that are introduced into a cell, including, without limitation, modifications that enhance the stability of the RNA (such as by increasing its degradation by RNAses present in the cell), modifications that enhance translation of the resulting product (i.e., the endonuclease), and/or modifications that decrease the likelihood or degree to which the RNAs introduced into cells elicit innate immune responses.


Combinations of modifications, such as the foregoing and others, can likewise be used. In the case of CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1, for example, one or more types of modifications can be made to guide RNAs (including those exemplified above), and/or one or more types of modifications can be made to RNAs encoding Cas endonuclease (including those exemplified above).


By way of illustration, guide RNAs used in the CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 system, or other smaller RNAs can be readily synthesized by chemical means, enabling a number of modifications to be readily incorporated, as illustrated below and described in the art. While chemical synthetic procedures are continually expanding, purifications of such RNAs by procedures such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC, which avoids the use of gels such as PAGE) tends to become more challenging as polynucleotide lengths increase significantly beyond a hundred or so nucleotides. One approach used for generating chemically-modified RNAs of greater length is to produce two or more molecules that are ligated together. Much longer RNAs, such as those encoding a Cas9 endonuclease, are more readily generated enzymatically. While fewer types of modifications are generally available for use in enzymatically produced RNAs, there are still modifications that can be used to, e.g., enhance stability, reduce the likelihood or degree of innate immune response, and/or enhance other attributes, as described further below and in the art; and new types of modifications are regularly being developed.


By way of illustration of types of modifications, especially those used frequently with smaller chemically synthesized RNAs, modifications can have one or more nucleotides modified at the 2′ position of the sugar, in some embodiments a 2′-O-alkyl, 2′-O-alkyl-O-alkyl, or 2′-fluoro-modified nucleotide. In some embodiments, RNA modifications include 2′-fluoro, 2′-amino or 2′-O-methyl modifications on the ribose of pyrimidines, abasic residues, or an inverted base at the 3′ end of the RNA. Such modifications have been incorporated into oligonucleotides, and these oligonucleotides have been reported to have a higher Tm (i.e., higher target binding affinity) than 2′-deoxyoligonucleotides against a given target.


A number of nucleotide and nucleoside modifications have been reported to make the oligonucleotide into which they are incorporated more resistant to nuclease digestion than the native oligonucleotide; these modified oligos survive intact for a longer time than unmodified oligonucleotides. Specific examples of modified oligonucleotides include those having modified backbones, for example, phosphorothioates, phosphotriesters, methyl phosphonates, short chain alkyl or cycloalkyl intersugar linkages or short chain heteroatomic or heterocyclic intersugar linkages. Some oligonucleotides are oligonucleotides with phosphorothioate backbones and those with heteroatom backbones, particularly CH2—NH—O—CH2, CH2—N(CH3)—O—CH2 (known as a methylene(methylimino) or MMI backbone), CH2—O—N(CH3)—CH2, CH2—N(CH3)—N(CH3)—CH2 and O—N(CH3)—CH2—CH2 backbones, wherein the native phosphodiester backbone is represented as O—P—O—CH,); amide backbones (see A. De Mesmaeker et al., Ace Chem Res (1995) 28:366-374); morpholino backbone structures (see Summerton and Weller, U.S. Pat. No. 5,034,506); and the peptide nucleic acid (PNA) backbone (described below). Phosphorus-containing linkages include, but are not limited to, phosphorothioates, chiral phosphorothioates, phosphorodithioates, phosphotriesters, aminoalkylphosphotriesters, methyl and other alkyl phosphonates having 3′alkylene phosphonates and chiral phosphonates, phosphinates, phosphoramidates having 3′-amino phosphoramidate and aminoalkylphosphoramidates, thionophosphoramidates, thionoalkylphosphonates, thionoalkylphosphotriesters, and boranophosphates having normal 3′-5′ linkages, 2′-5′ linked analogs of these, and those having inverted polarity wherein the adjacent pairs of nucleoside units are linked 3′-5′ to 5′-3′ or 2′-5′ to 5′-2′; see U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,687,808; 4,469,863; 4,476,301; 5,023,243; 5,177,196; 5,188,897; 5,264,423; 5,276,019; 5,278,302; 5,286,717; 5,321,131; 5,399,676; 5,405,939; 5,453,496; 5,455,233; 5,466,677; 5,476,925; 5,519,126; 5,536,821; 5,541,306; 5,550,111; 5,563,253; 5,571,799; 5,587,361; and 5,625,050.

Modified oligonucleotide backbones that do not include a phosphorus atom therein have backbones that are formed by short chain alkyl or cycloalkyl internucleoside linkages, mixed heteroatom and alkyl or cycloalkyl internucleoside linkages, or one or more short chain heteroatomic or heterocyclic internucleoside linkages.

One or more substituted sugar moieties can also be included, e.g., one of the following at the 2′ position: OH, SH, SCH3, F, OCN, OCH3OCH3, OCH3O(CH2)nCH3, O(CH2)nNH2, or O(CH2)nCH3, where n is from one to about 10; C1 to C10 lower alkyl, alkoxyalkoxy, substituted lower alkyl, alkaryl or aralkyl; Cl; Br; CN; CF3; OCF3; O-, S-, or N-alkyl; O-, S-, or N-alkenyl; SOCH3; SO2CH3; ONO2; NO2; N3; NH2; heterocycloalkyl; heterocycloalkaryl; aminoalkylamino; polyalkylamino; substituted silyl; an RNA cleaving group; a reporter group; an intercalator; a group for improving the pharmacokinetic properties of an oligonucleotide; or a group for improving the pharmacodynamic properties of an oligonucleotide and other substituents having similar properties. In some embodiments, a modification includes 2′-methoxyethoxy (2′-O—CH2CH2OCH3, also known as 2′-O-(2-methoxyethyl)) (P. Martin et al., Helv Chim Acta (1995) 78:486). Other modifications include 2′-methoxy (2′-O—CH3), 2′-propoxy (2′-OCH2CH2CH3) and 2′-fluoro (2′-F). Similar modifications can also be made at other positions on the oligonucleotide, particularly the 3′ position of the sugar on the 3′ terminal nucleotide and the 5′ position of 5′ terminal nucleotide. Oligonucleotides can also have sugar mimetics, such as cyclobutyls in place of the pentofuranosyl group.


In some embodiments, both a sugar and an internucleoside linkage, i.e., the backbone, of the nucleotide units are replaced with novel groups. The base units are maintained for hybridization with an appropriate nucleic acid target compound. One such oligomeric compound, an oligonucleotide mimetic that has been reported to have excellent hybridization properties, is referred to as a peptide nucleic acid (PNA). In PNA compounds, the sugar-backbone of an oligonucleotide is replaced with an amide containing backbone, for example, an aminoethylglycine backbone. The nucleobases are retained and are bound directly or indirectly to aza nitrogen atoms of the amide portion of the backbone. Representative United States patents that teach the preparation of PNA compounds have, but are not limited to, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,539,082; 5,714,331; and 5,719,262. Further teaching of PNA compounds can be found in P. E. Nielsen et al., Science (1991) 254:1497-500.


In some embodiments, guide RNAs can also include, additionally or alternatively, nucleobase (often referred to in the art simply as “base”) modifications or substitutions. As used herein, “unmodified” or “natural” nucleobases include adenine (A), guanine (G), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and uracil (U). Modified nucleobases include nucleobases found only infrequently or transiently in natural nucleic acids, e.g., hypoxanthine, 6-methyladenine, 5-Me pyrimidines, particularly 5-methylcytosine (also referred to as 5-methyl-2′-deoxycytosine and often referred to in the art as 5-Me-C), 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (HMC), glycosyl HMC and gentobiosyl HMC, as well as synthetic nucleobases, e.g., 2-aminoadenine, 2-(methylamino)adenine, 2-(imidazolylalkyl)adenine, 2-(aminoalklyamino)adenine or other heterosubstituted alkyladenines, 2-thiouracil, 2-thiothymine, 5-bromouracil, 5-hydroxymethyluracil, 8-azaguanine, 7-deazaguanine, N6 (6-aminohexyl)adenine, and 2,6-diaminopurine.; G.

Sanghvi et al., “Antisense Research and Applications”, CRC Press, Boca Raton, 1993, pp. 276-278) and are embodiments of base substitutions.


In some embodiments, modified nucleobases include other synthetic and natural nucleobases, such as 5-methylcytosine (5-me-C), 5-hydroxymethyl cytosine, xanthine, hypoxanthine, 2-aminoadenine, 6-methyl and other alkyl derivatives of adenine and guanine, 2-propyl and other alkyl derivatives of adenine and guanine, 2-thiouracil, 2-thiothymine and 2-thiocytosine, 5-halouracil and cytosine, 5-propynyl uracil and cytosine, 6-azo uracil, cytosine and thymine, 5-uracil (pseudo-uracil), 4-thiouracil, 8-halo, 8-amino, 8-thiol, 8-thioalkyl, 8-hydroxyl and other 8-substituted adenines and guanines, 5-halo particularly 5-bromo, 5-trifluoromethyl and other 5-substituted uracils and cytosines, 7-methylquanine and 7-methyladenine, 8-azaguanine and 8-azaadenine, 7-deazaguanine and 7-deazaadenine, and 3-deazaguanine and 3-deazaadenine.


Further nucleobases include those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,687,808, those disclosed in “The Concise Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, pages 858-859, Kroschwitz, J. I., ed. John Wiley & Sons, 1990, those disclosed by Englisch et al., Ange. Chemie, Int'l Ed, (1991) 30:613, and those disclosed by Y. S. Sanghvi, Chapter 15, “Antisense Research and Applications”, pp 289-302, Crooke, S. T. and Lebleu, B. ed., CRC Press, 1993.

(1990) 259:327-330 and Svinarchuk et al., Biochimie (1993) 75:49-54); a phospholipid, e.g., di-hexadecyl-rac-glycerol or triethylammonium 1,2-di-O-hexadecyl-rac-glycero-3-H-phosphonate (Manoharan et al., Tetrahedron Lett (1995) 36:3651-54 and Shea et al., Nucl Acids Res (1990) 18:3777-83); a polyamine or a polyethylene glycol chain (Mancharan et al., Nucleosides & Nucleotides (1995) 14:969-73); adamantane acetic acid (Manoharan et al., Tetrahedron Lett (1995) 36:3651-54); a palmityl moiety (Mishra et al., Biochim Biophys Acta (1995) 1264:229-37); or an octadecylamine or hexylamino-carbonyl-t-oxycholesterol moiety (Crooke et al., J Pharrnacol Exp Ther (1996) 277:923-37). See also U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,828,979; 4,948,882; 5,218,105; 5,525,465; 5,541,313; 5,545,730; 5,552,538; 5,578,717, 5,580,731; 5,580,731; 5,591,584; 5,109,124; 5,118,802; 5,138,045; 5,414,077; 5,486,603; 5,512,439; 5,578,718; 5,608,046; 4,587,044; 4,605,735; 4,667,025; 4,762,779; 4,789,737; 5,082,830; 5,112,963; 5,214,136; 5,245,022; 5,254,469; 5,258,506; 5,262,536; 5,272,250; 5,292,873; 5,317,098; 5,371,241, 5,391,723; 5,416,203, 5,451,463; 5,510,475; 5,512,667; 5,514,785; 5,565,552; 5,567,810; 5,574,142; 5,585,481; 5,587,371; 5,595,726; 5,597,696; 5,599,923; 5,599, 928 and 5,688,941.


In some embodiments, sugars and other moieties can be used to target proteins and complexes having nucleotides, such as cationic polysomes and liposomes, to particular sites. For example, hepatic cell-directed transfer can be mediated via asialoglycoprotein receptors (ASGPRs); see, e.g., Hu et al., Protein Pept Lett (2014) 21(10):1025-30. Other systems known in the art can be used to target biomolecules of use in the present case, and/or complexes thereof, to particular target cells of interest.

Conjugate groups of the disclosure include intercalators, reporter molecules, polyamines, polyamides, polyethylene glycols, polyethers, groups that enhance the pharmacodynamic properties of oligomers, and groups that enhance the pharmacokinetic properties of oligomers. Exemplary conjugate groups include cholesterols, lipids, phospholipids, biotin, phenazine, folate, phenanthridine, anthraquinone, acridine, fluoresceins, rhodamines, coumarins, and dyes. Groups that enhance the pharmacodynamic properties, in the context of this disclosure, include groups that improve uptake, enhance resistance to degradation, and/or strengthen sequence-specific hybridization with the target nucleic acid. Groups that enhance the pharmacokinetic properties, in the context of this disclosure, include groups that improve uptake, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the compounds of the present disclosure. Representative conjugate groups are disclosed in International Patent Application No. PCT/US92/09196, filed Oct. 23, 1992, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,287,860, which are incorporated herein by reference. Conjugate moieties include, but are not limited to, lipid moieties such as a cholesterol moiety, cholic acid, a thioether, e.g., hexyl-5-tritylthiol, a thiocholesterol, an aliphatic chain, e.g., dodecandiol or undecyl residues, a phospholipid, e.g., di-hexadecyl-rac-glycerol, or triethylammonium 1,2-di-O-hexadecyl-rac-glycero-3-H-phosphonate, a polyamine or a polyethylene glycol chain, or adamantane acetic acid, a palmityl moiety, or an octadecylamine or hexylamino-carbonyl-oxy cholesterol moiety. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,828,979; 4,948,882; 5,218,105; 5,525,465; 5,541,313; 5,545,730; 5,552,538; 5,578,717, 5,580,731; 5,580,731; 5,591,584; 5,109,124; 5,118,802; 5,138,045; 5,414,077; 5,486,603; 5,512,439; 5,578,718; 5,608,046; 4,587,044; 4,605,735; 4,667,025; 4,762,779; 4,789,737; 5,082,830; 5,112,963; 5,214,136; 5,245,022; 5,254,469; 5,258,506; 5,262,536; 5,272,250; 5,292,873; 5,317,098; 5,371,241, 5,391,723; 5,416,203, 5,451,463; 5,510,475; 5,512,667; 5,514,785; 5,565,552; 5,567,810; 5,574,142; 5,585,481; 5,587,371; 5,595,726; 5,597,696; 5,599,923; 5,599,928 and 5,688,941.


Longer polynucleotides that are less amenable to chemical synthesis and are generally produced by enzymatic synthesis can also be modified. Such modifications can include, for example, the introduction of certain nucleotide analogs, the incorporation of particular sequences or other moieties at the 5′ or 3′ ends of molecules, and other modifications. By way of illustration, the mRNA encoding Cas9 is approximately 4 kb in length and can be synthesized by in vitro transcription. Modifications to the mRNA can be applied to, e.g., increase its translation or stability (such as by increasing its resistance to degradation within a cell), or to reduce the tendency of the RNA to elicit the innate immune response that is often observed in cells following introduction of exogenous RNAs, particularly longer RNAs such as that encoding Cas9.


Numerous such modifications have been described in the art, such as polyA tails, 5′ cap analogs (e.g., Anti Reverse Cap Analog (ARCA) or m7G(5′)ppp(5′)G (mCAP)), modified 5′ or 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs), use of modified bases (such as pseudo-UTP, 2-thio-UTP, 5-methylcytidine-5′-triphosphate (5-methyl-CTP) or N6-methyl-ATP), or treatment with phosphatase to remove 5′ terminal phosphates. These and other modifications are known in the art, and new modifications of RNAs are regularly being developed.


It has been reported that chemically modified mRNA delivered in vivo can be used to achieve improved therapeutic effects; see, e.g., Kormann et al., Nature Biotechnol (2011) 29:154-57. Such modifications can be used, for example, to increase the stability of the RNA molecule and/or reduce its immunogenicity. Using chemical modifications such as pseudo-U, N6-methyl-A, 2-thio-U and 5-methyl-C, it was found that substituting just one quarter of the uridine and cytidine residues with 2-thio-U and 5-methyl-C respectively resulted in a significant decrease in toll-like receptor (TLR) mediated recognition of the mRNA in mice. By reducing the activation of the innate immune system, these modifications can be used to effectively increase the stability and longevity of the mRNA in vivo; see, e.g., Kormann et al., supra.


It has also been reported that repeated administration of synthetic messenger RNAs incorporating modifications designed to bypass innate anti-viral responses can reprogram differentiated human cells to pluripotency. See, e.g., Warren et al., Cell Stem Cell (2010) 7(5):618-30. Such modified mRNAs that act as primary reprogramming proteins can be an efficient means of reprogramming multiple human cell types. Such cells are referred to as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and it was found that enzymatically synthesized RNA incorporating 5-methyl-CTP, pseudo-UTP and an Anti Reverse Cap Analog (ARCA) could be used to effectively evade the cell's antiviral response; see, e.g., Warren et al., supra.


Other modifications of polynucleotides described in the art include, for example, the use of polyA tails, the addition of 5′ cap analogs (such as m7G(5′)ppp(5′)G (mCAP)), modifications of 5′ or 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs), and treatment with phosphatase to remove 5′ terminal phosphates.


A number of compositions and techniques applicable to the generation of modified RNAs for use herein have been developed in connection with the modification of RNAi, including siRNAs. siRNAs present particular challenges in vivo because their effects on gene silencing via mRNA interference are generally transient, which can require repeated administration. In addition, siRNAs are double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA), and mammalian immune responses have evolved to detect and neutralize dsRNA, which is often a by-product of viral infection. Thus, there are mammalian enzymes such as PKR (dsRNA-responsive kinase), and potentially retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), that can mediate cellular responses to dsRNA, as well as Toll-like receptors (such as TLR3, TLR7 and TLR8) that can trigger the induction of cytokines in response to such molecules; see, e.g., the reviews by Angart et al., Pharmaceuticals (Basel) (2013) 6(4):440-68; Kanasty et al., Mol Ther (2012) 20(3):513-24; Burnett et al., Biotechnol J (2011) 6(9):1130-46; Judge and MacLachlan, Hum Gene Ther (2008) 19(2):111-24; and references cited therein.


A large variety of modifications have been developed and applied to enhance RNA stability, reduce innate immune responses, and/or achieve other benefits that can be useful in connection with the introduction of polynucleotides into human cells, as described herein; see, e.g., the reviews by K. A. Whitehead et al., Ann Rev Chem Biomol Eng (2011) 2:77-96; Gaglione and Messere, Mini Rev Med Chem (2010) 10(7):578-95; Chernolovskaya et al., Curr Opin Mol Ther (2010) 12(2):158-67; Deleavey et al., Curr Protoc Nuc Acid Chem, Chapter 16: Unit 16.3 (2009); Behlke, Oligonucleotides (2008) 18(4):305-19; Fucini et al., Nucleic Acid Ther (2012) 22(3): 205-210; Bremsen et al., Front Genet (2012) 3:154.


A number of commercial suppliers of modified RNAs, many of which have specialized in modifications designed to improve the effectiveness of siRNAs. A variety of approaches are offered based on findings reported in the literature. For example, Dharmacon notes that replacement of a non-bridging oxygen with sulfur (phosphorothioate, PS) has been used to improve nuclease resistance of siRNAs, as reported by Kole, Nature Rev Drug Disc (2012) 11:125-40. Modifications of the ribose 2′-position have been reported to improve nuclease resistance of the internucleotide phosphate bond while increasing duplex stability (T m), which has also been reported to provide protection from immune activation. A combination of moderate PS backbone modifications with small, well-tolerated 2′-substitutions (2′-O-methyl, 2′-fluoro, 2′-hydro) have been associated with highly stable siRNAs for applications in vivo, as reported by Soutschek et al., Nature (2004) 432:173-78; and 2′-O-methyl modifications have been reported to be effective in improving stability as reported by Volkov, Oligonucleotides (2009) 19:191-202. With respect to decreasing the induction of innate immune responses, modifying specific sequences with 2′-O-methyl, 2′-fluoro, 2′-hydro have been reported to reduce TLR7/TLR8 interaction while generally preserving silencing activity; see, e.g., Judge et al., Mol Ther (2006) 13:494-505; and Cekaite et al., J Mol Biol (2007) 365:90-108. Additional modifications, such as 2-thiouracil, pseudouracil, 5-methylcytosine, 5-methyluracil, and N6-methyladenosine have also been reported to minimize the immune effects mediated by TLR3, TLR7, and TLR8; see, e.g., K. Kariko et al., Immunity (2005) 23:165-75.


As is also known in the art, and commercially available, a number of conjugates can be applied to polynucleotides, such as RNAs, for use herein that can enhance their delivery and/or uptake by cells, including for example, cholesterol, tocopherol and folic acid, lipids, peptides, polymers, linkers and aptamers; see, e.g., Winkler, Ther. Deliv. (2013) 4:791-809, and references cited therein.


Delivery


In some embodiments, any nucleic acid molecules used in the methods provided herein, e.g., a nucleic acid encoding a genome-targeting nucleic acid of the disclosure and/or a site-directed polypeptide are packaged into or on the surface of delivery vehicles for delivery to cells. Delivery vehicles include, but are not limited to, nanospheres, liposomes, quantum dots, nanoparticles, polyethylene glycol particles, hydrogels, and micelles. As described in the art, a variety of targeting moieties can be used to enhance the preferential interaction of such vehicles with desired cell types or locations.


The complexes, polypeptides, and nucleic acids of the disclosure into cells can be introduced by viral or bacteriophage infection, transfection, conjugation, protoplast fusion, lipofection, electroporation, nucleofection, calcium phosphate precipitation, polyethyleneimine (PEI)-mediated transfection, DEAE-dextran mediated transfection, liposome-mediated transfection, particle gun technology, calcium phosphate precipitation, direct micro-injection, nanoparticle-mediated nucleic acid delivery, and the like.


In embodiments, guide RNA polynucleotides (RNA or DNA) and/or endonuclease polynucleotide(s) (RNA or DNA) are delivered by viral or non-viral delivery vehicles known in the art. Alternatively, site-directed polypeptide(s) can be delivered by viral or non-viral delivery vehicles known in the art, such as electroporation or lipid nanoparticles. In some embodiments, a DNA endonuclease is delivered as one or more polypeptides, either alone or pre-complexed with one or more gRNAs, or one or more crRNA together with a tracrRNA.


In embodiments, polynucleotides are delivered by non-viral delivery vehicles including, but not limited to, nanoparticles, liposomes, ribonucleoproteins, positively charged peptides, small molecule RNA-conjugates, aptamer-RNA chimeras, and RNA-fusion protein complexes. Some exemplary non-viral delivery vehicles are described in Peer and Lieberman, Gene Ther (2011) 18:1127-33 (which focuses on non-viral delivery vehicles for siRNA that are also useful for delivery of other polynucleotides).


In embodiments, polynucleotides, such as guide RNA, sgRNA, and mRNA encoding an endonuclease, are delivered to a cell or a subject by a lipid nanoparticle (LNP).


While several non-viral delivery methods for nucleic acids have been tested both in animal models and in humans, the most developed system is lipid nanoparticles. LNP are generally composed of an ionizable cationic lipid and three or more additional components, generally cholesterol, DOPE and a polyethylene glycol (PEG) containing lipid (see, e.g., Example 1). The cationic lipid can bind to the positively charged nucleic acid, forming a dense complex that protects the nucleic acid from degradation. During passage through a microfluidics system, the components self-assemble to form particles in the size range of 50 to 150 nM, in which the nucleic acid is encapsulated in the core, complexed with the cationic lipid and surrounded by a lipid bilayer-like structure. After injection into the circulation of a subject, these particles can bind to apolipoprotein E (apoE). ApoE is a ligand for the LDL receptor and mediates uptake into the hepatocytes of the liver via receptor-mediated endocytosis. LNP of this type have been reported to efficiently deliver mRNA and siRNA to the hepatocytes of the livers of rodents, primates, and humans. After endocytosis, the LNP are present in endosomes. The encapsulated nucleic acid undergoes a process of endosomal escape mediated by the ionizable nature of the cationic lipid. This delivers the nucleic acid into the cytoplasm where mRNA can be translated into the encoded protein. Thus, in some embodiments encapsulation of gRNA and mRNA encoding Cas9 into an LNP is used to efficiently deliver both components to the hepatocytes after i.v. injection. After endosomal escape, the Cas9 mRNA is translated into Cas9 protein and forms a complex with the gRNA. In some embodiments, inclusion of a nuclear localization signal into the Cas9 protein sequence promotes translocation of the Cas9 protein/gRNA complex to the nucleus. Alternatively, the small gRNA crosses the nuclear pore complex and forms complexes with Cas9 protein in the nucleus. Once in the nucleus, the gRNA/Cas9 complex scans the genome for homologous target sites and generates double-strand breaks preferentially at the desired target site in the genome. The half-life of RNA molecules in vivo is short, on the order of hours to days. Similarly, the half-life of proteins tends to be short, on the order of hours to days. Thus, in some embodiments, delivery of the gRNA and Cas9 mRNA using an LNP can result in only transient expression and activity of the gRNA/Cas9 complex. This can provide the advantage of reducing the frequency of off-target cleavage, thus minimizing the risk of genotoxicity in some embodiments. LNP are generally less immunogenic than viral particles. While many humans have preexisting immunity to AAV, there is no pre-existing immunity to LNP. An additional and adaptive immune response against LNP is unlikely to occur, which enables repeat dosing of LNP.


When administering to a subject a gene editing based gene therapy in which a therapeutic coding sequence is integrated into a host genomic locus, such as a safe harbor locus, it would be advantageous to achieve a level of gene expression that provides the optimal therapeutic benefit to the subject. For example, in hemophilia A the most desirable level of FVIII protein in the blood would be in the range of 20% to 100%, 30% to 100%, 40% to 100%, or 50% to 100% of the normal level. Standard AAV based gene therapies that use a strong promoter to drive expression of the therapeutic coding sequence from episomal copies of the AAV genome do not enable control of the level of expression that is achieved, because the AAV virus can only be dosed once and the levels of expression that are achieved vary significantly between subjects (S. Rangarajan et al., N Engl J Med (2017) 377:2519-30). After the subject is dosed with an AAV virus, he or she develops high titer antibodies against the virus capsid proteins that, based upon preclinical models, are expected to prevent effective re-administration of the virus (H. Petry et al., Gene Ther (2008) 15:54-60). One approach, where the therapeutic gene delivered by an AAV virus is integrated into the genome at a safe harbor locus, such as albumin intron 1, and this targeted integration occurs via the creation of a double-strand break in the genome, provides an opportunity to control the level of targeted integration and thus the levels of the therapeutic coding sequence product. After the liver is transduced by an AAV encapsulating an AAV genome containing a donor DNA cassette encoding the synthetic FVIII, the AAV genome is maintained episomally within the nucleus of the transduced cells. These episomal AAV genomes are relatively stable over time, and therefore provide a pool of donor template for targeted integration at double-strand breaks created by CRISPR/Cas9.


Several different ionizable cationic lipids have been developed for use in LNP. These include C12-200 (K. T. Love et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (2010) 107:1864-69), MC3 (M. Jayaraman et al., Angew Chem Int Ed Engl (2012) 51:8529-33), LN16, and MD1 (Fougerolles et al., U.S. Pat. No. 8,754,062), among others. C12-200 is 1,1′-((2-(4-(2-((2-(bis(2-hydroxydodecyl)amino)ethyl) (2-hydroxydodecyl)amino)ethyl)piperazin-1-yl)ethyl)azanediyl)bis(dodecan-2-431). In one type of LNP, a GalNac moiety is attached to the outside of the LNP and acts as a ligand for uptake into the liver via the asialoglycoprotein receptor. Any of these cationic lipids are used to formulate LNP for delivery of gRNA and Cas9 mRNA to the liver.


In some embodiments, the LNP has a diameter of less than about 1000 nm, 500 nm, 250 nm, 200 nm, 150 nm, 100 nm, 75 nm, 50 nm, or 25 nm. Alternatively, a nanoparticle can range in size from about 1-1000 nm, 1-500 nm, 1-250 nm, 25-200 nm, 25-100 nm, 35-75 nm, or 25-60 nm.


LNPs can be made from cationic, anionic, or neutral lipids. Neutral lipids, such as the fusogenic phospholipid DOPE or the membrane component cholesterol, can be included in LNPs as “helper lipids” to enhance transfection activity and nanoparticle stability. Limitations of cationic lipids can include low efficacy owing to poor stability and rapid clearance, as well as the generation of inflammatory or anti-inflammatory responses. LNPs can also have hydrophobic lipids, hydrophilic lipids, or both hydrophobic and hydrophilic lipids.


Any lipid or combination of lipids known in the art can be used to produce an LNP. Examples of lipids used to produce LNPs include: DOTMA, DOSPA, DOTAP, DMRIE, DC-cholesterol, DOTAP-cholesterol, GAP-DMORIE-DPyPE, and GL67A-DOPE-DMPE-polyethylene glycol (PEG). Examples of cationic lipids include 98N12-5, C12-200, DLin-KC2-DMA (KC2), DLin-MC3-DMA (MC3), XTC, MD1, and 7C1. Examples of neutral lipids include DPSC, DPPC, POPC, DOPE, and SM. Examples of PEG-modified lipids include PEG-DMG, PEG-CerC14, and PEG-CerC20.


In embodiments, the lipids can be combined in any number of molar ratios to produce an LNP. In addition, the polynucleotide(s) can be combined with lipid(s) in a wide range of molar ratios to produce an LNP.


In embodiments, the site-directed polypeptide and genome-targeting nucleic acid can each be administered separately to a cell or a subject. The site-directed polypeptide can be pre-complexed with one or more guide RNAs, or one or more crRNA together with a tracrRNA. The pre-complexed material can then be administered to a cell or a subject. Such pre-complexed material is known as a ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP).


RNA is capable of forming specific interactions with RNA or DNA. While this property is exploited in many biological processes, it also comes with the risk of promiscuous interactions in a nucleic acid-rich cellular environment. One solution to this problem is to form ribonucleoprotein particles (RNPs), in which the RNA is pre-complexed with an endonuclease. Another benefit of the RNP is that the RNA is protected from degradation.


In some embodiments, the endonuclease in the RNP is modified or unmodified. Likewise, the gRNA, crRNA, tracrRNA, or sgRNA can be modified or unmodified. Numerous modifications are known in the art and can be used.


The endonuclease and sgRNA are generally combined in about a 1:1 molar ratio. Alternatively, the endonuclease, crRNA and tracrRNA can be combined in about a 1:1:1 molar ratio. However, a wide range of molar ratios can be used to produce an RNP.


In some embodiments, a recombinant AAV vector is used for delivery. Techniques to produce rAAV particles, in which an AAV genome to be packaged that includes the polynucleotide to be delivered, rep and cap genes, and helper virus functions are provided to a cell are standard in the art. Production of rAAV requires that the following components are present within a single cell (denoted herein as a packaging cell): an rAAV genome, AAV rep and cap genes separate from (i.e., not in) the rAAV genome, and helper virus functions. The AAV rep and cap genes can be from any AAV serotype for which recombinant virus can be derived, and can be from a different AAV serotype than the rAAV genome ITRs, including without limitation, AAV serotypes AAV-1, AAV-2, AAV-3, AAV-4, AAV-5, AAV-6, AAV-7, AAV-8, AAV-9, AAV-10, AAV-11, AAV-12, AAV-13, and AAV rh.74. Production of pseudotyped rAAV is disclosed in, for example, international patent application WO01/83692. See Table 1.

In some embodiments, a method of generating a packaging cell involves creating a cell line that stably expresses the necessary components for AAV particle production. For example, a plasmid (or multiple plasmids) having a rAAV genome lacking AAV rep and cap genes, AAV rep and cap genes separate from the rAAV genome, and a selectable marker, such as a neomycin resistance gene, are integrated into the genome of a cell. AAV genomes have been introduced into bacterial plasmids by procedures such as GC tailing (R. J. Samulski et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1982) 79:2077-81), addition of synthetic linkers containing restriction endonuclease cleavage sites (C. A. Laughlin et al., Gene (1983) 23:65-73), and by direct, blunt-end ligation (P. Senapathy et al., J Biol Chem (1984) 259:4661-66). The packaging cell line is then infected with a helper virus, such as adenovirus. The advantages of this method are that the cells are selectable and are suitable for large-scale production of rAAV. Other suitable methods employ adenovirus or baculovirus, rather than plasmids, to introduce rAAV genomes and/or rep and cap genes into packaging cells.


General principles of rAAV production are reviewed in, for example, B. J. Carter, Cur Op Biotechnol (1992) 3(5):533-39; and N. Muzyczka, Curr Topics Microbiol Immunol (1992) 158:97-129). Some approaches are described in J. D. Tratschin et al., Mol Cell Biol (1984) 4:2072-81; P. L. Hermonat et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1984) 81:6466-70; J. D. Tratschin et al., Mol Cell Biol (1985) 5:3251-60; S. K. McLaughlin et al., J Virol (1988) 62:1963-73; J. S. Lebkowski et al., Mol Cell Biol (1988) 8:3988-96; R. J. Samulski et al., J Virol (1989) 63:3822-28); U.S. Pat. No. 5,173,414; WO95/13365 and corresponding U.S. Pat.

AAV vector serotypes can be matched to target cell types. For example, the following exemplary cell types can be transduced by the indicated AAV serotypes among others. For example, the serotypes of AAV vectors suitable to liver tissue/cell type include, without limitation, AAV3, AAV5, AAV8 and AAV9.


In addition to adeno-associated viral vectors, other viral vectors can be used. Such viral vectors include, without limitation, lentivirus, alphavirus, enterovirus, pestivirus, baculovirus, herpesvirus, Epstein Barr virus, papovavirus, poxvirus, vaccinia virus, and herpes simplex virus.


In some embodiments, Cas9 mRNA, sgRNA targeting one or two loci in albumin genes, and donor DNA, are each separately formulated into lipid nanoparticles, or are all co-formulated into one lipid nanoparticle, or co-formulated into two or more lipid nanoparticles.


In some embodiments, Cas9 mRNA is formulated in a lipid nanoparticle, while sgRNA and donor DNA are delivered in an AAV vector. In some embodiments, Cas9 mRNA and sgRNA are co-formulated in a lipid nanoparticle, while donor DNA is delivered in an AAV vector.


Options are available to deliver the Cas9 nuclease as a DNA plasmid, as mRNA or as a protein. The guide RNA can be expressed from the same DNA, or can also be delivered as an RNA. The RNA can be chemically modified to alter or improve its half-life, or decrease the likelihood or degree of immune response. The endonuclease protein can be complexed with the gRNA prior to delivery. Viral vectors allow efficient delivery: split versions of Cas9 and smaller orthologs of Cas9 can be packaged in AAV, as can donors for HDR. A range of non-viral delivery methods also exist that can deliver each of these components, or non-viral and viral methods can be employed in tandem. For example, nanoparticles can be used to deliver the protein and guide RNA, while AAV can be used to deliver a donor DNA.


In some embodiments that are related to delivering genome-editing components for therapeutic treatments, at least two components are delivered into the nucleus of a cell to be transformed, e.g., hepatocytes: a sequence-specific nuclease and a DNA donor template. In some embodiments, the donor template is packaged into an AAV with tropism for the liver. In some embodiments, the AAV is selected from the serotypes AAV8, AAV9, AAVrh10, AAV5, AAV6 or AAV-DJ. In some embodiments, the AAV packaged DNA donor template is administered to a subject, e.g., a subject first by peripheral i.v. injection, followed by the sequence-specific nuclease. The advantage of delivering an AAV-packaged donor template first is that the delivered donor template will be stably maintained in the nucleus of the transduced hepatocytes, which allows for the subsequent administration of the sequence-specific nuclease. This creates a double-strand break in the genome, with subsequent integration of the donor template by HDR or NHEJ. It is desirable in some embodiments that the sequence-specific nuclease remain active in the target cell only for the time required to promote targeted integration of the transgene at sufficient levels for the desired therapeutic effect. If the sequence-specific nuclease remains active in the cell for an extended duration, this will result in an increased frequency of double-strand breaks at off-target sites. Specifically, the frequency of off-target cleavage is a function of the off-target cutting efficiency multiplied by the time over which the nuclease is active. Delivery of a sequence-specific nuclease in the form of an mRNA results in a short duration of nuclease activity, in the range of hours to a few days, because the mRNA and the translated protein are short-lived in the cell. Thus, delivery of the sequence-specific nuclease into cells that already contain the donor template is expected to result in a better ratio of targeted integration relative to off-target integration. In addition, AAV-mediated delivery of a donor template to the nucleus of hepatocytes after peripheral i.v. injection takes time, generally on the order of one to 14 days, due to the time required for the virus to infect the cell, escape the endosomes and transit to the nucleus, and conversion of the single-stranded AAV genome to a double-stranded DNA molecule by host components. Thus, in some embodiments the delivery of the donor template to the nucleus is completed before supplying the CRISPR/Cas9 components, since these nuclease components are active for about one to three days.


In some embodiments, the DNA endonuclease is CRISPR/Cas9, which is composed of a sgRNA directed to a DNA sequence within intron 1 of an albumin gene together with a Cas9 nuclease. In some embodiments, the Cas9 endonuclease is delivered as an mRNA encoding the Cas9 protein operably fused to one or more nuclear localization signals (NLS). In some embodiments, the sgRNA and the Cas9 mRNA are delivered to the hepatocytes packaged in a lipid nanoparticle. In some embodiments, the lipid nanoparticle contains the lipid C12-200 (K. T. Love et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (2010) 107:1864-69). In some embodiments, the ratio of the sgRNA to the Cas9 mRNA that is packaged in the LNP is 1:1 (mass ratio), to result in maximal DNA cleavage in vivo in mice. In alternative embodiments, different mass ratios of the sgRNA to the Cas9 mRNA that is packaged in the LNP can be used, for example, 10:1, 9:1, 8:1, 7:1, 6:1, 5:1, 4:1, 3:1 or 2:1, or reverse ratios. In some embodiments, the Cas9 mRNA and the sgRNA are packaged into separate LNP formulations and the Cas9 mRNA containing LNP is delivered to the subject about one to about 8 hours before the LNP containing the sgRNA, to allow optimal time for the Cas9 mRNA to be translated prior to delivery of the sgRNA.


In some embodiments, an LNP formulation encapsulating a gRNA and a Cas9 mRNA (“LNP-nuclease formulation”) is administered to a subject, e.g., a subject that previously was administered a DNA donor template packaged into an AAV. In some embodiments, the LNP-nuclease formulation is administered to the subject within one day to 28 days, or within seven days to 28 days, or within seven days to 14 days after administration of the AAV donor template. The optimal timing of delivery of the LNP-nuclease formulation relative to the AAV-donor template can be determined using techniques known in the art, e.g., studies done in animal models including mice and monkeys.


In some embodiments, a DNA-donor template is delivered to the hepatocytes of a subject, e.g., a subject, using a non-viral delivery method. While some subjects (generally 30%) have pre-existing neutralizing antibodies directed to most commonly used AAV serotypes that prevents the efficacious gene delivery by the AAV, all subjects are treatable with a non-viral delivery method. Several non-viral delivery methodologies are known in the field. In particular, LNP are known to efficiently deliver their encapsulated cargo to the cytoplasm of hepatocytes after intravenous injection in animals and humans. These LNP are actively taken up by the liver through a process of receptor-mediated endocytosis, resulting in preferential uptake into the liver.


In some embodiments, to promote nuclear localization of a donor template, a DNA sequence that can promote nuclear localization of plasmids, e.g., a 366 bp region of the simian virus 40 (SV40) origin of replication and early promoter, can be added to the donor template. Other DNA sequences that bind to cellular proteins can also be used to improve nuclear entry of DNA.


In some embodiments, a level of expression or activity of introduced FVIII is measured in the blood of a subject, e.g., a subject, following the first administration of an LNP-nuclease formulation, e.g., containing gRNA and Cas9 nuclease or mRNA encoding Cas9 nuclease, after the AAV donor template. If the FVIII level is not sufficient to treat the disease, for example a level of 5% of normal levels, then a second or third administration of the LNP-nuclease formulation can be given to promote additional targeted integration into a genome safe harbor locus. The feasibility of using multiple doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation to obtain the desired therapeutic levels of FVIII can be tested and optimized using the techniques known in the field, e.g., tests using animal models including the mouse and the monkey.


In some embodiments, according to any of the methods described herein comprising administration of i) an AAV donor template comprising a donor cassette and ii) an LNP-nuclease formulation to a subject, an initial dose of the LNP-nuclease formulation is administered to the subject within about one day to about 28 days after administration of the AAV donor template to the subject. In some embodiments, the initial dose of the LNP-nuclease formulation is administered to the subject after a sufficient time to allow delivery of the donor template to the nucleus of a target cell. In some embodiments, the initial dose of the LNP-nuclease formulation is administered to the subject after a sufficient time to allow conversion of the single-stranded AAV genome to a double-stranded DNA molecule in the nucleus of a target cell. In some embodiments, one or more (such as two, three, four, five, or more) additional doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation are administered to the subject following administration of the initial dose. In some embodiments, one or more doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation are administered to the subject until a target level of targeted integration of the donor cassette and/or a target level of expression of the donor cassette is achieved. In some embodiments, the method further comprises measuring the level of targeted integration of the donor cassette and/or the level of expression of the donor cassette following each administration of the LNP-nuclease formulation, and administering an additional dose of the LNP-nuclease formulation if the target level of targeted integration of the donor cassette and/or the target level of expression of the donor cassette is not achieved. In some embodiments, the amount of at least one of the additional doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation is the same as the initial dose. In some embodiments, the amount of at least one of the additional doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation is less than the initial dose. In some embodiments, the amount of at least one of the additional doses of the LNP-nuclease formulation is more than the initial dose.


Genetically Modified Cells and Cell Populations


In one aspect, the disclosures herewith provide a method of editing a genome in a cell, thereby creating a genetically modified cell. In some aspects, a population of genetically modified cells is provided. “Genetically modified cell” therefore refers to a cell that has at least one genetic modification introduced by genome editing (e.g., using a CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 system). In some embodiments, the genetically modified cell is a genetically modified hepatocyte cell. A genetically modified cell having an exogenous genome-targeting nucleic acid and/or an exogenous nucleic acid encoding a genome-targeting nucleic acid is contemplated herein.


In some embodiments, the genome of a cell can be edited by inserting a nucleic acid sequence of a synthetic FVIII coding sequence into a genomic sequence of the cell. In some embodiments, the cell subject to the genome-edition has one or more mutation(s) in the genome which results in reduced expression of an endogenous FVIII gene, as compared to the expression in a normal that does not have such a mutation(s). The normal cell can be a healthy or control cell that originated (or is isolated) from a different subject who does not have FVIII gene defects. In some embodiments, the cell subject to the genome-edition can be originated (or isolated) from a subject who is in need of treatment of FVIII gene-related condition or disorder. Therefore, in some embodiments the expression of endogenous FVIII gene in such cell is about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, or about 100% reduced as compared to the expression of endogenous FVIII gene expression in the normal cell.


Upon successful insertion of the transgene, e.g., a nucleic acid encoding a synthetic FVIII coding sequence, the expression of the introduced synthetic FVIII coding sequence in the cell can be at least about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 100%, about 200%, about 300%, about 400%, about 500%, about 600%, about 700%, about 800%, about 900%, about 1,000%, about 2,000%, about 3,000%, about 5,000%, about 10,000%, or more as compared to the expression of endogenous FVIII gene of the cell. In some embodiments, the activity of introduced FVIII coding sequence products, including synthetic FVIII coding sequence in the genome-edited cell can be at least about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 100%, about 200%, about 300%, about 400%, about 500%, about 600%, about 700%, about 800%, about 900%, about 1,000%, about 2,000%, about 3,000%, about 5,000%, about 10,000%, or more as compared to the expression of endogenous FVIII gene of the cell. In some embodiments, the expression of the introduced synthetic FVIII coding sequence in the cell is at least about 2 fold, about 3 fold, about 4 fold, about 5 fold, about 6 fold, about 7 fold, about 8 fold, about 9 fold, about 10 fold, about 15 fold, about 20 fold, about 30 fold, about 50 fold, about 100 fold, about 1000 fold, or more of the expression of endogenous FVIII gene of the cell. Also, in some embodiments, the activity of an introduced synthetic FVIII coding sequence in the genome-edited cell can be comparable to or greater than the activity of FVIII gene products in a normal, healthy cell.


In embodiments for treating or ameliorating hemophilia A, the principal targets for gene editing are human cells. In some embodiments, in the ex vivo and in vivo methods, the human cells are hepatocytes. In some embodiments, by performing gene editing in autologous cells that are derived from the subject in need (and are therefore already completely matched with the subject), it is possible to generate cells that can be safely re-introduced into the subject, and effectively give rise to a population of cells that will be effective in ameliorating one or more clinical conditions associated with the subject's disease. In some embodiments for such treatments, hepatocyte cells are isolated according to any method known in the art and used to create genetically modified, therapeutically effective cells. In one embodiment, liver stem cells are genetically modified ex vivo and then re-introduced into the subject, where they give rise to genetically modified hepatocytes or sinusoidal endothelial cells that express the inserted FVIII coding sequence.


Therapeutic Approach


Hemophilia is classified as “mild” (FVIII protein serum concentrations of 0.40 to 0.05 IU/mL), “moderate” (0.05 to 0.01 IU/mL), or “severe” (<0.01 IU/mL, less than 1% of normal) (G. C. White et al., Thromb Haemost (2001) 85(3):560-75). An analysis of hemophilia A patients taking FVIII replacement protein therapy reported that at predicted FVIII trough levels of 3%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of normal, the frequency at which no bleeds occurred was 71%, 79%, 91%, 97%, and 100%, respectively (G. Spotts et al., Blood (2014) 124:689). This suggests that when FVIII levels are maintained above a minimum level of 15 to 20% the rate of bleeding events is reduced to close to zero. While a precise FVIII level required to cure hemophilia A has not been defined, and likely varies between subjects, levels of between about 5% and about 30% are expected to provide a significant reduction in bleeding events.


In one aspect, provided herein is a gene therapy approach for treating hemophilia A in a subject by editing the genome of the subject. In some embodiments, the gene therapy approach integrates a functional synthetic FVIII coding sequence into the genome of a relevant cell type in the subject, and provides a permanent cure for hemophilia A. In some embodiments, a synthetic FVIII coding sequence is integrated into a hepatocyte, because these cells efficiently express and secrete many proteins into the blood. In addition, this integration approach using hepatocytes can be considered for pediatric subjects whose livers are not fully grown, because the integrated coding sequence is transmitted to the daughter cells as the hepatocytes divide.


In another aspect, provided herein are cellular ex vivo and in vivo methods for using genome engineering tools to create permanent changes to the genome by knocking-in a synthetic FVIII coding sequence into a gene locus and restoring FVIII protein activity. Such methods use endonucleases, such as CRISPR-associated (CRISPR/Cas9, Cpf1 and the like) nucleases, to permanently delete, insert, edit, correct, or replace any sequences from a genome, or insert an exogenous sequence, e.g., a synthetic FVIII coding sequence, in a genomic locus. In this way, the examples set forth in the present disclosure restore the activity of FVIII gene with a single treatment (rather than deliver potential therapies for the lifetime of the subject).


In some embodiments, an ex vivo cell-based therapy uses hepatocytes isolated from a subject. The chromosomal DNA of these cells is edited using the materials and methods described herein. Finally, the edited cells and/or their progeny are administered or implanted into the subject.


One advantage of an ex vivo cell therapy approach is the ability to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the therapeutic prior to administration. Nuclease-based therapeutics have some level of off-target effects. Performing gene correction ex vivo allows one to characterize the corrected cell population prior to administration. Aspects of the disclosure include sequencing the genome of the corrected cells to ensure that any off-target cuts are in genomic locations associated with minimal risk to the subject. Further, populations of specific cells, including clonal populations, can be screened or isolated prior to administration or implantation.


Another embodiment is in vivo based therapy. In this method, the chromosomal DNA of the cells in the subject is corrected using the materials and methods described herein. In some embodiments, the cells are hepatocytes.


An advantage of in vivo gene therapy is the ease of therapeutic production and administration. The same therapeutic approach and therapy can be used to treat more than one subject, for example a number of subjects who share the same or similar genotype or allele. In contrast, ex vivo cell therapy generally uses a subject's own cells, which are isolated, manipulated and returned to the same subject.


In some embodiments, the subject has symptoms of hemophilia A. In some embodiments, the subject is a human suspected of having hemophilia A. Alternatively, the subject is a human diagnosed with a risk of hemophilia A. In some embodiments, the subject who is in need of the treatment has one or more genetic defects (e.g., deletion, insertion, and/or mutation) in the endogenous FVIII gene or its regulatory sequences, such that the activity (including the expression level or functionality) of the FVIII protein is substantially reduced as compared to a normal, healthy subject.

In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the DNA endonuclease is selected from the group consisting of Cas1, Cas1B, Cas2, Cas3, Cas4, Cas5, Cas6, Cas7, Cas8, Cas9 (also known as Csn1 and Csx12), Cas100, Csyl, Csy2, Csy3, Cse1, Cse2, Csc1, Csc2, Csa5, Csn2, Csm2, Csm3, Csm4, Csm5, Csm6, Cmr1, Cmr3, Cmr4, Cmr5, Cmr6, Csb1, Csb2, Csb3, Csx17, Csx14, Csx10, Csx16, CsaX, Csx3, Csx1, Csx15, Csf1, Csf2, Csf3, Csf4, and Cpf1 endonuclease, and functional equivalents thereof. In some embodiments, the DNA endonuclease is Cas9. In some embodiments, the Cas9 is spCas9. In some embodiments, the Cas9 is SluCas9.


In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII coding sequence is codon-optimized for expression in the cell. In some embodiments, the cell is a human cell.

In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the donor template is encoded in an AAV vector. In some embodiments, the donor template comprises a donor cassette comprising the nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII protein, and the donor cassette is flanked on one or both sides by a gRNA target site. In some embodiments, the donor cassette is flanked on both sides by a gRNA target site. In some embodiments, the gRNA target site is a target site for the gRNA that is administered. In some embodiments, the gRNA target site of the donor template is the reverse complement of a cell genome gRNA target site for the gRNA that is administered. In some embodiments, providing the donor template to the cell comprises administering the donor template to the subject. In some embodiments, the administration is intravenous.


In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease is formulated in a liposome or an LNP. In some embodiments, the liposome or LNP also comprises the gRNA.

In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the DNA endonuclease is pre-complexed with the gRNA, forming an RNP complex.


The process by which AAV infects cells, including cells of the liver, involves escape from the endosome, virus uncoating and the transport of the AAV genome to the nucleus. In the case of the AAV used in these studies in which single-stranded genomes are packaged in the virus, the single-stranded genomes undergo a process of second strand DNA synthesis to form double-stranded DNA genomes. The time required for complete conversion of single-stranded genomes to double-stranded genomes is not well established, but it is considered to be a rate limiting step (Ferrari et al., J Virol (1996) 70:3227-34). The double-stranded linear genomes then become concatemerized into multimeric circular forms composed of monomers joined head to tail and tail to head (Sun et al., Human Gene Ther. (2010) 21:750-62).


In some embodiments, according to any of the methods of treating hemophilia A described herein, the gRNA that is administered and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease that is administered are provided to the cell after the donor template is provided to the cell. In some embodiments, the gRNA that is administered and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease that is administered are provided to the cell more than four days after the donor template is provided to the cell. In some embodiments, the gRNA and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease are provided to the cell at least 14 days after the donor template is provided to the cell. In some embodiments, the gRNA and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease are provided to the cell at least 17 days after the donor template is provided to the cell.

In some embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease is an mRNA encoding the DNA endonuclease. In some embodiments, providing the donor template to the cell comprises administering (such as by an intravenous route) to the subject the donor template encoded in an AAV vector.

In some embodiments, one or more additional doses of the gRNA and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease are provided to the cell following the first dose of the gRNA and the DNA endonuclease or nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease until a target level of targeted integration of the nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII protein and/or a target level of expression of the nucleic acid sequence encoding a synthetic FVIII protein is achieved. In some embodiments, providing the gRNA and the DNA endonuclease to the cell comprises administering (such as by an intravenous route) to the subject a lipid nanoparticle comprising nucleic acid encoding the DNA endonuclease and the gRNA.

Delivering Cells to a Subject


In some embodiments, the ex vivo methods of the disclosure involve administering the genome-edited cells into a subject in need thereof. This can be accomplished using any method of parenteral administration known in the art. For example, the genetically modified cells can be injected directly in the subject's blood, injected directly into or near the liver (implanted), or otherwise administered to the subject.


In some embodiments, the methods disclosed herein include implanting or “transplanting” genetically-modified therapeutic cells into a subject, by a method or route that results in at least partial localization of the introduced cells at a desired site such that a desired effect(s) is produced. The therapeutic cells or their differentiated progeny can be introduced by any appropriate route that results in delivery to a desired location in the subject where at least a portion of the implanted cells or components of the cells remain viable. The period of viability of the cells after administration to a subject can be as short as a few hours, e.g., twenty-four hours, to a few days, to as long as several years, or even the lifetime of the subject, i.e., long-term engraftment.


When provided prophylactically, the therapeutic cells described herein are administered to a subject in advance of any symptom of hemophilia A. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the prophylactic administration of a genetically modified hepatocyte cell population serves to prevent the occurrence of hemophilia A symptoms.


When provided therapeutically in some embodiments, genetically modified hepatocyte cells are provided at (or after) the onset of a symptom or indication of hemophilia A, e.g., upon the onset of disease.


In some embodiments, the therapeutic hepatocyte cell population being administered according to the methods described herein has allogeneic hepatocyte cells obtained from one or more donors. “Allogeneic” refers to a hepatocyte cell or biological samples having hepatocyte cells obtained from one or more different donors of the same species, where the genes at one or more loci are not identical. For example, a hepatocyte cell population being administered to a subject can be derived from one more unrelated donor subjects, or from one or more non-identical siblings. In some embodiments, syngeneic hepatocyte cell populations can be used, such as those obtained from genetically identical animals, or from identical twins. In other embodiments, the hepatocyte cells are autologous cells; that is, the hepatocyte cells are obtained or isolated from a subject and administered to the same subject, i.e., the donor and recipient are the same.


In one embodiment, an effective amount refers to the amount of a population of therapeutic cells needed to prevent or alleviate at least one or more signs or symptoms of hemophilia A, and relates to a sufficient amount of a composition to provide the desired effect, e.g., to treat a subject having hemophilia A. In embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount therefore refers to an amount of therapeutic cells or a composition having therapeutic cells that is sufficient to promote a particular effect when administered to a subject, such as one who has or is at risk for hemophilia A. An effective amount also includes an amount sufficient to prevent or delay the development of a symptom of the disease, alter the course of a symptom of the disease (for example, without limitation, to slow the progression of a symptom of the disease), or reverse a symptom of the disease. It is understood that for any given case, an appropriate effective amount can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art.


For use in the embodiments described herein, an effective amount of therapeutic cells, e.g., genome-edited hepatocyte cells can be at least about 102 cells, at least about 5×102 cells, at least about 103 cells, at least about 5×103 cells, at least about 104 cells, at least about 5×104 cells, at least about 105 cells, at least about 2×105 cells, at least about 3×105 cells, at least about 4×105 cells, at least about 5×105 cells, at least about 6×105 cells, at least about 7×105 cells, at least about 8×105 cells, at least about 9×105 cells, at least about 1×106 cells, at least about 2×106 cells, at least about 3×106 cells, at least about 4×106 cells, at least about 5×106 cells, at least about 6×106 cells, at least about 7×106 cells, at least about 8×106 cells, at least about 9×106 cells, or multiples thereof. The therapeutic cells are derived from one or more donors, or are obtained from an autologous source. In some embodiments described herein, the therapeutic cells are expanded in culture prior to administration to a subject in need thereof.


In some embodiments, modest and incremental increases in the levels of functional FVIII expressed in cells of subjects having hemophilia A are beneficial for ameliorating one or more symptoms of the disease, for increasing long-term survival, and/or for reducing side effects associated with other treatments. Upon administration of such cells to human subjects, the presence of therapeutic cells that are producing increased levels of functional FVIII is beneficial. In some embodiments, effective treatment of a subject gives rise to at least about 1%, 3%, 5% or 7% functional FVIII relative to total FVIII in the treated subject. In some embodiments, functional FVIII is at least about 10% of total FVIII. In some embodiments, functional FVIII is at least, about, or at most 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% or 100% of total FVIII. Similarly, the introduction of even relatively limited subpopulations of cells having significantly elevated levels of functional FVIII is beneficial in subjects because in some situations normalized cells have a selective advantage relative to diseased cells. However, even modest levels of therapeutic cells with elevated levels of functional FVIII are beneficial for ameliorating one or more aspects of hemophilia A in subjects. In some embodiments, about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90% or more of the therapeutic in subjects to whom such cells are administered are producing increased levels of functional FVIII.


In embodiments, the delivery of a therapeutic cell composition into a subject by a method or route results in at least partial localization of the cell composition at a desired site. A cell composition can be administered by any appropriate route that results in effective treatment in the subject, i.e., administration results in delivery to a desired location in the subject where at least a portion of the composition delivered, i.e., at least about 1×104 cells are delivered to the desired site for a period of time. Modes of administration include injection, infusion, instillation, or ingestion. “Injection” includes, without limitation, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, intrathecal, intraventricular, intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subcuticular, intraarticular, sub capsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, intracerebrospinal, and intrasternal injection and infusion. In some embodiments, the route is intravenous. For the delivery of cells, administration can be by injection or infusion.


In one embodiment, the cells are administered systemically, in other words a population of therapeutic cells are administered other than directly into a target site, tissue, or organ, such that it enters, instead, the subject's circulatory system, and thus is subject to metabolism and other like processes.


The efficacy of a treatment having a composition for the treatment of hemophilia A can be determined by the skilled clinician. However, a treatment is considered effective treatment if any one or more of the signs or symptoms of, as but one example, levels of functional FVIII are altered in a beneficial manner (e.g., increased by at least 10%), or other clinically accepted symptoms or markers of disease are improved or ameliorated. Efficacy can also be measured by failure of an individual to worsen as assessed by hospitalization or need for medical interventions (e.g., progression of the disease is halted or at least slowed). Methods of measuring these indicators are known to those of skill in the art, and/or described herein. Treatment includes any treatment of a disease in an individual or an animal (some non-limiting examples include a human, or a mammal) and includes: (1) inhibiting the disease, e.g., arresting, or slowing the progression of symptoms; or (2) relieving the disease, e.g., causing regression of symptoms; and (3) preventing or reducing the likelihood of the development of symptoms.

In some embodiments, one or more such compounds are associated with a liposome or LNP via a covalent bond or non-covalent bond. In some embodiments, any of the compounds are separately or together contained in a liposome or LNP. Therefore, in some embodiments, each of a DNA endonuclease or a nucleic acid encoding thereof, gRNA and donor template is separately formulated in a liposome or LNP. In some embodiments, a DNA endonuclease is formulated in a liposome or LNP with gRNA. In some embodiments, a DNA endonuclease or a nucleic acid encoding thereof, gRNA, and donor template are formulated in a liposome or LNP together.

Kit


Some embodiments provide a kit that contains any of the above-described compositions, e.g., a composition for genome editing, or a therapeutic cell composition and one or more additional components.


In some embodiments, a kit can have one or more additional therapeutic agents that can be administered simultaneously or in sequence with the composition for a desired purpose, e.g., genome editing or cell therapy.


In some embodiments, a kit can further include instructions for using the components of the kit to practice the methods. The instructions for practicing the methods are generally recorded on a suitable recording medium. For example, the instructions can be printed on a substrate, such as paper or plastic, etc. The instructions can be present in the kits as a package insert, in the labeling of the container of the kit or components thereof (i.e., associated with the packaging or subpackaging), etc. The instructions can be present as an electronic storage data file present on a suitable computer readable storage medium, e.g., CD-ROM, diskette, flash drive, etc. In some instances, the actual instructions are not present in the kit, but means for obtaining the instructions from a remote source (e.g., via the Internet) are provided. An example of this embodiment is a kit that includes a web address where the instructions can be viewed and/or from which the instructions can be downloaded. As with the instructions, the method for obtaining the instructions can be recorded on a suitable substrate.


Additional Therapeutic Approaches


Gene editing can be conducted using site-directed polypeptides engineered to target specific sequences. To date there are four major types of such nucleases: meganucleases and their functional equivalents, zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and CRISPR/CAS nuclease systems. The nuclease platforms vary in difficulty of design, targeting density and mode of action, particularly as the specificity of ZFNs and TALENs is through protein-DNA interactions, while RNA-DNA interactions primarily guide Cas proteins. Cas9 cleavage also requires an adjacent motif, the PAM, which differs between different CRISPR systems. Cas9 from Streptococcus pyogenes cleaves using an NRG PAM, while CRISPR from Neisseria meningitidis can cleave at sites with PAMs including NNNNGATT (SEQ ID NO: 312), NNNNNGTTT (SEQ ID NO: 313) and NNNNGCTT (SEQ ID NO: 314). A number of other Cas9 orthologs target protospacers adjacent to alternative PAMs.


CRISPR endonucleases, such as Cas9, can be used in embodiments of the methods of the disclosure. Further, the teachings described herein, such as therapeutic target sites, can be applied to other forms of endonucleases, such as ZFNs, TALENs, HEs, or MegaTALs, or using combinations of nucleases. However, to apply the teachings of the present disclosure to such endonucleases, one would need to, among other things, engineer proteins directed to the specific target sites.


Additional binding domains can be fused to the Cas9 protein to increase specificity. The target sites of these constructs map to the identified gRNA specified site, but require additional binding motifs, such as for a zinc finger domain. In the case of Mega-TAL, a meganuclease can be fused to a TALE DNA-binding domain. The meganuclease domain can increase specificity and provide the cleavage. Similarly, inactivated or “dead” Cas9 (dCas9) can be fused to a cleavage domain and require the sgRNA/Cas9 target site and adjacent binding site for the fused DNA-binding domain. This likely would require some protein engineering of the dCas9, in addition to the catalytic inactivation, to decrease binding without the additional binding site.


In some embodiments, the compositions and methods of editing genome in accordance with the present disclosures (e.g., insertion of a FVIII coding sequence into an albumin locus) use any of the following approaches.


Zinc Finger Nucleases


Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) are modular proteins having an engineered zinc finger DNA binding domain, linked to the catalytic domain of the type II endonuclease FokI. Because FokI functions only as a dimer, a pair of ZFNs must be engineered to bind to cognate target “half-site” sequences on opposite DNA strands and with precise spacing between them to enable the catalytically active FokI dimer to form. Upon dimerization of the FokI domain, which itself has no sequence specificity per se, a DNA double-strand break is generated between the ZFN half-sites as the initiating step in genome editing.


The DNA binding domain of each ZFN generally has 3-6 zinc fingers of the abundant Cys2-His2 architecture, with each finger primarily recognizing a triplet of nucleotides on one strand of the target DNA sequence, although cross-strand interaction with a fourth nucleotide also can be important. Alteration of the amino acids of a finger in positions that make key contacts with the DNA alters the sequence specificity of a given finger. Thus, a four-finger zinc finger protein will selectively recognize a 12 bp target sequence, where the target sequence is a composite of the triplet preferences contributed by each finger, although triplet preference can be influenced to varying degrees by neighboring fingers. An important aspect of ZFNs is that they can be readily re-targeted to almost any genomic address simply by modifying individual fingers, although considerable expertise is required to do this well. In most applications of ZFNs, proteins of 4-6 fingers are used, recognizing 12-18 bp respectively. Hence, a pair of ZFNs will generally recognize a combined target sequence of 24-36 bp, not including the 5-7 bp spacer between half-sites. The binding sites can be separated further with larger spacers, including 15-17 bp. A target sequence of this length is likely to be unique in the human genome, assuming repetitive sequences or gene homologs are excluded during the design process. Nevertheless, the ZFN protein-DNA interactions are not absolute in their specificity, so off-target binding and cleavage events do occur, either as a heterodimer between the two ZFNs, or as a homodimer of one or the other of the ZFNs. The latter possibility has been effectively eliminated by engineering the dimerization interface of the FokI domain to create “plus” and “minus” variants, also known as obligate heterodimer variants, which can only dimerize with each other, and not with themselves. Forcing the obligate heterodimer prevents formation of the homodimer. This has greatly enhanced specificity of ZFNs, as well as any other nuclease that adopts these FokI variants.


A variety of ZFN-based systems have been described in the art, modifications thereof are regularly reported, and numerous references describe rules and parameters that are used to guide the design of ZFNs; see, e.g., Segal et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1999) 96(6):2758-63; B. Dreier et al., J Mol Biol. (2000) 303(4):489-502; Q. Liu et al., J Biol Chem. (2002) 277(6):3850-6; Dreier et al., J Biol Chem (2005) 280(42):35588-97; and Dreier et al., J Biol Chem. (2001) 276(31):29466-78.


Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs)


TALENs represent another format of modular nucleases whereby, as with ZFNs, an engineered DNA binding domain is linked to the FokI nuclease domain, and a pair of TALENs operate in tandem to achieve targeted DNA cleavage. The major differences from ZFNs are the nature of the DNA binding domain, and the associated target DNA sequence recognition properties. The TALEN DNA binding domain derives from TALE proteins, which were originally described in the plant bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas sp. TALEs have tandem arrays of 33-35 amino acid repeats, with each repeat recognizing a single base pair in the target DNA sequence that is generally up to 20 bp in length, giving a total target sequence length of up to 40 bp. Nucleotide specificity of each repeat is determined by the repeat variable di-residue (RVD), which includes just two amino acids at positions 12 and 13. The bases guanine, adenine, cytosine, and thymine are predominantly recognized by the four RVDs: Asn-Asn, Asn-Ile, His-Asp and Asn-Gly, respectively. This constitutes a much simpler recognition code than for zinc fingers, and thus represents an advantage over the latter for nuclease design. Nevertheless, as with ZFNs, the protein-DNA interactions of TALENs are not absolute in their specificity, and TALENs also benefit from the use of obligate heterodimer variants of the FokI domain to reduce off-target activity.


Additional variants of the FokI domain have been created that are deactivated in their catalytic function. If one half of either a TALEN or a ZFN pair contains an inactive FokI domain, then only single-strand DNA cleavage (nicking) will occur at the target site, rather than a DSB. The outcome is comparable to the use of CRISPR/Cas9/Cpf1 “nickase” mutants in which one of the Cas9 cleavage domains has been deactivated. DNA nicks can be used to drive genome editing by HDR, but at lower efficiency than with a DSB. The main benefit is that off-target nicks are quickly and accurately repaired, unlike the DSB, which is prone to NHEJ-mediated mis-repair.


A variety of TALEN-based systems have been described in the art, and modifications thereof are regularly reported: see, e.g., Boch, Science (2009) 326(5959):1509-12; Mak et al., Science (2012) 335(6069):716-9; and Moscou et al., Science (2009) 326(5959):1501. The use of TALENs based on the “Golden Gate” platform, or cloning scheme, has been described by multiple groups: see, e.g., T. Cermak et al., Nucleic Acids Res. (2011) 39(12):e82; Li et al., Nucleic Acids Res. (2011) 39(14):6315-25; Weber et al., PLoS One (2011) 6(2):e16765; Wang et al., J Genet Genomics (2014) 41(6):339-47, Epub 2014 Can 17; and T. Cermak et al., Methods Mol Biol. (2015) 1239:133-59.


Homing Endonucleases


Homing endonucleases (HEs) are site-specific endonucleases that have long recognition sequences (14-44 base pairs) and cleave DNA with high specificity—often at sites unique in the genome. There are at least six known families of HEs as classified by their structure, including LAGLIDADG (SEQ ID NO: 6), GIY-YIG, His-Cis box, H-N-H, PD-(D/E)xK, and Vsr-like, that are derived from a broad range of hosts, including eukarya, protists, bacteria, archaea, cyanobacteria, and phage. As with ZFNs and TALENs, HEs can be used to create a DSB at a target locus as the initial step in genome editing. In addition, some natural and engineered HEs cut only a single strand of DNA, thereby functioning as site-specific nickases. The large target sequence of HEs and the specificity that they offer have made them attractive candidates to create site-specific DSBs.


A variety of HE-based systems have been described in the art, and modifications thereof are regularly reported: see, e.g., the reviews by Steentoft et al., Glycobiology (2014) 24(8):663-80; Belfort and Bonocora, Methods Mol Biol. (2014) 1123:1-26; Hafez and Hausner, Genome (2012) 55(8):553-69; and references cited therein.


MegaTAL/Tev-mTALEN/MegaTev


As further examples of hybrid nucleases, the MegaTAL platform and Tev-mTALEN platform use a fusion of TALE DNA binding domains and catalytically active HEs, taking advantage of both the tunable DNA binding and specificity of the TALE, as well as the cleavage sequence specificity of the HE: see, e.g., Boissel et al., Nuc. Acids Res. (2014) 42: 2591-601; Kleinstiver et al., G3 (2014) 4:1155-65; and Boissel and Scharenberg, Methods Mol. Biol. (2015) 1239:171-96.


In a further variation, the MegaTev architecture is the fusion of a meganuclease (Mega) with the nuclease domain derived from the GIY-YIG homing endonuclease I-TevI (Tev). The two active sites are positioned ˜30 bp apart on a DNA substrate and generate two DSBs with non-compatible cohesive ends; see, e.g., Wolfs et al., Nuc. Acids Res. (2014) 42:8816-29. It is anticipated that other combinations of existing nuclease-based approaches will evolve and be useful in achieving the targeted genome modifications described herein.


dCas9-FokI or dCpf1-FokI and Other Nucleases


Combining the structural and functional properties of the nuclease platforms described above offers a further approach to genome editing that can potentially overcome some of the inherent deficiencies. As an example, the CRISPR genome editing system generally uses a single Cas9 endonuclease to create a DSB. The specificity of targeting is driven by a 20 or 22 nucleotide sequence in the guide RNA that undergoes Watson-Crick base-pairing with the target DNA (plus an additional two bases in the adjacent NAG or NGG PAM sequence in the case of Cas9 from S. pyogenes). Such a sequence is long enough to be unique in the human genome, however, the specificity of the RNA/DNA interaction is not absolute, with significant promiscuity sometimes tolerated, particularly in the 5′ half of the target sequence, effectively reducing the number of bases that drive specificity. One solution to this has been to completely deactivate the Cas9 or Cpf1 catalytic function—retaining only the RNA-guided DNA binding function—and instead fusing a FokI domain to the deactivated Cas9; see, e.g., Tsai et al., Nature Biotech (2014) 32:569-76; and Guilinger et al., Nature Biotech. (2014) 32:577-82. Because FokI must dimerize to become catalytically active, two guide RNAs are required to tether two FokI fusions in close proximity to form the dimer and cleave DNA. This essentially doubles the number of bases in the combined target sites, thereby increasing the stringency of targeting by CRISPR-based systems.


As further example, fusion of the TALE DNA binding domain to a catalytically active HE, such as I-TevI, takes advantage of both the tunable DNA binding and specificity of the TALE, as well as the cleavage sequence specificity of I-TevI, with the expectation that off-target cleavage can be further reduced.

EXAMPLES
Example 1: An Amino Acid Sequence Containing N-Glycosylation Motifs Improves Expression of FVIII after Targeted Integration into Mouse Albumin Intron 1 Mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 Cleavage

Construct Design


A challenge to inserting an FVIII encoding nucleic acid sequence into a genome is that the natural FVIII coding sequence is 7053 bp, making it, among other things, difficult to package in adeno associated virus (AAV has a packaging limit in the range of 4800 to 5000 bp for in vivo delivery as a template for integration at a double-strand break created by a sequence-specific nuclease such as Cas9). To solve the problem, applicants designed a set of FVIII coding sequences with an altered B domain. Although the B domain of FVIII is not required for function, it improves the secretion of FVIII. These FVIII coding sequences were designed to express a synthetic FVIII having a short B domain (substitute B domain). To evaluate synthetic FVIII coding sequences having an substitute B domain for their ability to make and secrete FVIII protein after integration into the genome, constructs were designed to target integration of FVIII coding sequences into intron 1 of a mouse albumin gene. The albumin locus provides a strong promoter that is active in liver cells, so that a suitable FVIII coding sequence inserted at this locus can be expressed when operably linked to an albumin promoter.


A series of plasmids referred to herein as pCB076 (SEQ ID NO: 316), pCB100 (SEQ ID NO: 320), pCB1003 (SEQ ID NO: 324), pCB085 (SEQ ID NO: 3319), or pCB080 (SEQ ID NO: 318) were constructed using known molecular biology techniques. The same pUC19-based bacterial plasmid backbone (containing a bacterial origin of replication and a kanamycin resistance gene) was used for all five plasmids. The plasmids were constructed with the following elements (in order): gRNA target site (for gRNA mAlbT1, SEQ ID NO: 338, targeting exon 1 of a mouse albumin gene)|18 bp spacer|splice acceptor site (“SA”) FVIII coding sequence|polyadenylation signal (“sPA”). The plasmids differed only in the codon optimization of the human FVIII coding sequence, and the presence (pCB076) or absence (pCB100, pCB1003, pCB085, and pCB080) of a sequence encoding a B domain substitute. The B domain substitute used in this example consisted of the first six N-glycosylation motifs from the N-terminus of the human FVIII B domain.


Plasmids pCB100, pCB1003, pCB085 and pCB080 all contain the coding sequence for B domain deleted human FVIII in which the B domain is replaced with the “SQ linker” (which encodes amino acids SFSQNPPVLKRHQR, SEQ ID NO: 337) The SQ linker includes a protease cleavage site (RHQR), but lacks an N-linked glycosylation site. Plasmid pCB076 (SEQ ID NO: 316) contains the same codon-optimized B domain deleted human FVIII coding sequence (“co1”, see Example 4 below) as pCB100, and an additional DNA sequence encoding 17 amino acids corresponding to the first six N-glycosylation motifs from the N-terminus of the human FVIII B domain inserted into the SQ linker (thus forming a B domain substitute), in place of the B domain. The other plasmids have the following codon optimization: pCB100—co1 (SEQ ID NO: 320), pCB1003—co2 (SEQ ID NO: 324), pCB085—co3 (SEQ ID NO: 319), and pCB080—co4 (SEQ ID NO: 318) (see Example 4 below). The plasmids were designed to be donors for targeted integration into a double-strand break that is generated in intron 1 of a mouse albumin gene using a CRISPR/Cas9 system utilizing the gRNA mALbT1 (tgccagttcccgatcgttac, SEQ ID 338). The liver is the target organ for this targeted integration, specifically hepatocytes. Hepatocytes in vivo are mostly quiescent, and it is known that the dominant cellular mechanism that repairs double-strand breaks in DNA in non-dividing cells is non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) (Z. Mao et al., Cell Cycle (2008) 7:2902-06). In the presence of a linear double-stranded DNA molecule (the donor), and a double-strand break in the genome, the donor DNA can be inserted at the double-strand break by the NHEJ machinery.


Alternatively, the ends of the double-strand break in the genome can be re-joined to each other by the same NHEJ machinery, an event that is generally more frequent than insertion of the donor template. Repair by NHEJ is an error-prone process, and this leads to the introduction of insertions or deletions at the site of the double-strand break. Targeted integration of a donor template delivered as a plasmid at a double-strand break in the genome of a cell can be enhanced by including cut sites for a nuclease in the donor plasmid. Because plasmids are circular molecules, they are not templates for integration at a double-strand break. Including a single guide RNA cut site in the plasmid results in linearization of the plasmid in the presence of a Cas9/gRNA complex. Therefore, a single guide RNA cut site for the mALbT1 guide was inserted at the 5′ end of the FVIII cassette in the reverse complement of the sequence present in the mouse genome.


Use of the reverse complement of the guide sequence in the genome theoretically favors integration in the forward orientation when two guide sites flanking the cassette are used. However, this advantage is unlikely to be maintained when only one guide cut site is used. The inclusion of guide cut sites flanking the coding sequence generates two linear fragments composed of the coding sequence cassette and the bacterial plasmid backbone (encoding the antibiotic resistance gene and origin of replication), in which case the bacterial backbone fragment competes for integration at the double-strand break in the genome. For this reason, applicants designed the plasmid so that a single guide cut site was used. The synthetic FVIII coding sequence cassette was composed of the following elements in order, starting at the 5′ end; mAlbT1 gRNA target site, an 18 bp spacer sequence, a splice acceptor sequence (ACTAAAGAATTATTCTTTTACATTTCAG, SEQ ID NO: 307), the B domain-deleted human FVIII coding sequence in which the signal peptide was replaced by the dinucleotide TG, and a polyadenylation signal (aataaaagatctttattttcattagatctgtgtgttggttttttgtgtg, SEQ ID NO: 306).


The constructs were designed so that after integration into intron 1 of albumin, a hybrid pre-mRNA was generated containing exon 1 of albumin, part of intron 1 of albumin, and the FVIII coding sequence cassette. After integration into albumin intron 1, it is expected that at some frequency the splicing machinery of the cell splices out intron 1, thereby creating a mature mRNA in which albumin exon 1 is fused in-frame to the coding sequence for mature FVIII. The TG dinucleotide is included in the construct to maintain the translational reading frame. Translation of this mRNA was predicted to produce a protein in which the signal peptide and pro-peptide of albumin is fused to the mature coding sequence of FVIII. Upon passage through the secretory machinery of the cell, the signal peptide and pro-peptide were predicted to be cleaved off, leaving three amino acids (Glu-Ala-Leu) added to the natural N-terminus of mature FVIII. The FVIII protein produced using this method was active in mice despite the presence of these additional three amino acids.


gRNAs


The gRNAs used in these experiments were chemically synthesized, incorporating chemically modified nucleotides to improve resistance to nucleases. The gRNA in one example is composed of the following structure: 5′ usgscsCAGUUCCCGAUCGUUACGU-UUUAGAgcuaGAAAuagcAAGUUAAAAUAAGGCUAGUCCGUUAUCaacuuGAAAa-aguggcaccgagucggugcusususU-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 339), where “A, G, U, C” are native RNA nucleotides, “a, g, u, c” are 2′-O-methyl nucleotides, and “s” represents a phosphorothioate backbone. The mouse albumin targeting sequence of the gRNA is underlined, and the remainder of the gRNA sequence is the common scaffold sequence.


mRNA


The mRNA can be produced by methods known in the art. One such method used herein was in vitro transcription using T7 polymerase, in which the sequence of the mRNA is encoded in a plasmid that contains a T7 polymerase promoter. Briefly, upon incubation of the plasmid in an appropriate buffer containing T7 polymerase and ribonucleotides, an RNA molecule was produced that encoded the amino acid sequence of the desired protein. Either natural ribonucleotides or chemically modified ribonucleotides can be used in the reaction mixture to generate mRNA molecules with either the natural chemical structure of native mRNA, or with modified chemical structures. In the studies described herein, natural (unmodified) ribonucleotides were used. In addition, capping components were included in the transcription reaction so that the 5′ end of the mRNA was capped


The spCas9 mRNA was designed to encode the spCas9 protein fused to a nuclear localization domain (NLS), which is required to transport the spCas9 protein into the nuclear compartment where cleavage of genomic DNA can occur. Additional components of the Cas9 mRNA are a KOZAK sequence at the 5′ end prior to the first codon to promote ribosome binding, and a polyA tail at the 3′ end composed of a series of A residues. An example spCas9 mRNA with NLS sequences is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 340. In addition, the sequence of the spCas9 coding sequence was optimized for codon usage by utilizing the most frequently used codon for each amino acid. Additionally, to promote efficient translation of the mRNA into spCas9 protein, the coding sequence was optimized to remove cryptic ribosome binding sites and upstream open reading frames.


LNPs


A primary component of the LNP used in these studies is the lipid C12-200 (Love et al., 2010 supra). C12-200 forms a complex with the negatively-charged RNA molecules. In general, C12-200 was combined with 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), DMPE-mPEG2000, and cholesterol. When mixed under controlled conditions, for example, in a NanoAssemblr® device (Precision NanoSystems, Vancouver, BC) with nucleic acids such as gRNA and mRNA, self-assembly of LNPs occurred in which the nucleic acids were encapsulated inside the LNP. To assemble the gRNA and the Cas9 mRNA in the LNP, ethanol and lipid stocks were pipetted into glass vials as appropriate. An exemplary ratio was composed of C12-200, DOPE, cholesterol and mPEG2000-DMG at a molar ratio of 50:10:38.5:1.5. The gRNA and mRNA were diluted in 100 mM Na citrate (pH 3.0) and 300 mM NaCl in RNase-free tubes. The NanoAssemblr® cartridge (Precision NanoSystems) was washed with ethanol on the lipid side and with water on the RNA side. The working stock of lipids was pulled into a syringe, air removed from the syringe, and the syringe inserted in the cartridge. The same procedure was used for loading a syringe with the mixture of gRNA and Cas9 mRNA. The NanoAssemblr® run was then performed under the manufacturer's recommended conditions. The LNP suspension was dialyzed using a 10K molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) dialysis cartridge in 4 liters of PBS for four hours, then concentrated by centrifugation through a 100K MWCO spin cartridge (Amicon), including washing three times in PBS during centrifugation. Finally, the LNP suspension was sterile filtered through a 0.2 μm syringe filter. Endotoxin levels were determined using a commercial endotoxin kit (a Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) assay), and the particle size distribution was determined by dynamic light scattering.


The concentration of encapsulated RNA was determined using a RiboGreen® assay (Thermo Fisher). Alternatively, the gRNA and the Cas9 mRNA were formulated separately into LNPs, and then mixed together prior to treatment of cells in culture or injection into animals. Using separately formulated gRNA and Cas9 mRNA allowed specific ratios of gRNA and Cas9 mRNA to be tested.


Alternative LNP formulations that utilize alternate cationic lipid molecules are also used for in vivo delivery of the gRNA and Cas9 mRNA.


In Vivo Testing of Constructs


A murine model was used to test the ability of the designed constructs to produce FVIII. Mouse models of hemophilia A are known in the art (for example, L. Bi et al., Nat Genet. (1995) 10:119-21, doi: 10.1038/ng0595-119). The plasmids pCB076, pCB100, pCB1003, pCB085, and pCB080 were purified using Qiagen EndoFree® plasmid maxi prep kits (cat #12362), and then diluted in 0.9% saline to a final concentration of 15 μg/mL. Hemophilia A mice (strain B6; 129S-F8tm1Kaz/J), a strain of mice that lacks mouse FVIII protein, were obtained from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). Cohorts of Hemophilia A mice were injected via the tail vein with 2 mL of the diluted plasmid DNA per mouse over a period of five to six seconds, by hydrodynamic injection (“HDI”). The HDI process has been reported to result in the delivery of plasmid DNA into the nucleus of liver cells, including hepatocytes (see, e.g., F. Niola et al., Meth Mol Biol (2019) 1961:329-41). One day after injection, the mice were given retro-orbital (“RO”) injections of an LNP formulation encapsulating spCas9 mRNA and the guide RNA mAlbT1. The dose of LNP administered to mice was 1 mg/kg of body weight of spCas9 mRNA plus 1 mg/kg per kg of body weight of gRNA.


A group of mice dosed with the LNP alone was sacrificed after three days, and DNA was extracted from the whole livers and assayed using TIDE analysis (E. K. Brinkman et al., Nuc Acid Res (2014) 42:e168) for indels at the expected cut site for the mAlbT1 gRNA. In TIDE analysis, the genomic region of the expected CRISPR/Cas9 cut site is amplified from the genomic DNA of the treated cells by PCR, and then subjected to Sanger sequencing. The sequencing chromatograms were analyzed using the TIDE software program, which determines the frequency of insertions and deletions in the region around the predicted cut site.


In these experiments, the frequency of indels at the on-target site was determined to be 25.4%. Six days after the mice injected with plasmid were dosed with LNP, blood samples were taken by RO bleed into sodium citrate (1:9 ratio of sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma was collected by centrifugation. The FVIII activity in the plasma was measured using a FVIII activity assay (Diapharma, Chromogenix Coatest® SP Factor FVIII, cat #K824086). Kogenate® (Bayer), a recombinant human FVIII, was used for the standards, and the units per mL of FVIII activity in the blood was converted to percent of normal activity (1 U/mL=100%). The results are summarized in FIG. 1. Mice that were injected with plasmid pCB076, which contains the six N-glycan B domain substitute sequence in place of the B domain, had mean synthetic FVIII levels of equivalent to 20% of normal human FVIII levels. In contrast, mice that were injected with the pCB100 plasmid, which is identical to pCB076 except for the absence of the six N-glycan B domain substitute sequence, did not have detectable FVIII levels in their blood. The mice injected with plasmids pCB1003, pCB085, or pCB080, that contain differently codon-optimized B domain deleted FVIII coding sequences lacking the six N-glycan B domain substitute sequence, had low or unmeasurable FVIII activity in their blood when compared to non-gene edited (naïve) Hemophilia A mice. Some of the mice injected with pCB1003 and pCB080 had detectable FVIII in their blood, in the range of 1 to 3% of normal, indicating that codon optimizations co2 (pCB1003) and co4 (pCB080) may be more active than codon optimizations co1 (pCB100) and co3 (pCB085).


The level of FVIII produced in the blood of the mice in this study was dependent on both the frequency of targeted integration into albumin intron 1 in the forward orientation (orientation capable of producing FVIII protein), and the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence is a function of the transcriptional efficiency, the translation efficiency (which varies with the type of codon optimization employed), and the efficiency of the secretion process. In the case of the FVIII protein, it has been reported that secretion of the protein can be a rate limiting step, and is associated with the unfolded protein response that can be induced when FVIII is expressed at high levels in cells. (M. Swaroop et al., J Biol Chem (1997) 272:24121-24; R. J. Kaufman, Blood (2009) 114:SCI-19).


To distinguish between targeted integration frequency, which may vary between mice due to variability in the efficiency of delivery of the donor by HDI or other factors, and the intrinsic expression efficiency of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence, targeted integration frequency was quantified using droplet digital PCR (DD-PCR). DD-PCR is a method for quantitation of the absolute copy number of a nucleic acid sequence in a sample. To quantify only the forward orientation of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence cassette inserted into albumin intron 1, a pair of PCR primers was designed with the forward primer located in albumin intron 1 at a site 5′ of the gRNA mALbT1 cut site and the reverse primer located at the 5′ end of the FVIII coding sequence. A fluorogenic probe was designed that is complementary to the sequence between the two primers. A reference primer/probe set was designed against the native mouse albumin gene sequence at a site distant from the mALbT1 gRNA site. The reference primer probe was used to normalize for the amount of input mouse genomic DNA in each assay.


To carry out this analysis, mice from the experiments described above were sacrificed eight days after the mice were dosed with LNP. Whole livers were homogenized and total genomic DNA was purified using the Qiagen DNeasy® Tissue kit. Equal mass amounts of genomic DNA were then assayed for targeted integration frequency using the DD-PCR assay described above. The results for each mouse are summarized in Table 2. The targeted integration frequency in the forward orientation ranged from 0.09% to 0.95% (0.09 to 0.95 copies per 100 haploid genomes). Peak FVIII levels in the blood were positively correlated to the integration frequency, indicating that the level of FVIII was dependent on the number of copies of the FVIII cassette that were integrated into albumin intron 1. The mean targeted integration frequency in the mice injected with pCB076 was 0.47±0.26, compared to 0.28±0.15 in the mice injected with pCB100, indicating a trend to higher integration frequency in mice injected with pCB076 that contains the B domain substitute in place of the SQ linker, although this difference was not statistically significant.

Normalizing the FVIII level in the blood of each mouse to the integration frequency provides a measure of the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The average of the ratio of FVIII level divided by targeted integration frequency was 42 for pCB076 and 5.3 for pCB100, and this difference was statistically significant (p=0.0004), as determined using a two-tailed Student's T-test. These results demonstrate that the intrinsic expression efficiency of the synthetic FVIII coding sequence in pCB076 is about eight fold greater than that of the coding sequence in pCB100. This demonstrates that including the sequence encoding the B domain substitute in place of the SQ linker improved the intrinsic expression efficiency of this codon-optimized FVIII coding sequence by about eight fold. The magnitude of this improvement is significantly greater than the two fold improvement reported for the same six glycan motif sequence when the FVIII coding sequence was delivered in a non-integrating AAV virus in which the FVIII coding sequence is driven by a strong liver specific promoter (J. McIntosh et al., Blood (2013) 121:3335-44).


Example 2: Replacing the SQ Linker with a B Domain Substitute Increases FVIII Expression from a FVIII Donor Cassette Delivered by an AAV and Integrated into Intron 1 of Albumin

To determine whether the same beneficial effect of the B domain substitute peptide occurred when the synthetic FVIII coding sequence was delivered to the liver of mice using an AAV, the plasmids pCB099 (SEQ ID NO: 311) and pCB102 (SEQ ID NO: 341) were constructed and packaged in AAV8 (Vector Biolabs, Malvern, PA, or SabTech, Philadelphia, PA). The plasmids were constructed with the following elements (in order): ITR|gRNA target site (for mAlbT1)|18 bp spacer|splice acceptor site (“SA”)|FVIII coding sequence|polyadenylation signal (“sPA”)|gRNA target site|ITR. The FVIII coding sequence for pCB099 and pCB102 was identical to the FVIII coding sequence for pCB076 (having a B domain substitute) and pCB100 (having only the SQ linker), respectively. These FVIII cassettes lack a promoter, and so are unable to express FVIII as non-integrated AAV episomal genomes. Integration adjacent to an appropriate promoter is required for expression of FVIII delivered by these AAV viruses.


In these experiments, Hemophilia A mice were injected i.v. with 2×1012 vector genomes (“vg”) per kilogram of body weight, of AAV8-pCB099 or AAV8-pCB102. Four weeks later, the mice were injected i.v. with a 1:1 mixture of two LNP, one LNP encapsulating the mAlbT1 gRNA and the other LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA. The LNP were prepared as described in Example 1, and the total dose was 2 mg of RNA per kg of body weight. FVIII activity was measured in the blood of the mice 10 days after LNP dosing using the method set forth in Example 1. FVIII levels in the blood of the mice at 10 days after dosing the LNP (FIG. 2) were on average 20% of normal human FVIII levels for the mice that received AAV9-pCB099, but were at background levels in the mice that received AAV8-pCB102 (lacking the B domain substitute).


At day 24 after dosing the LNP, the mice were sacrificed, the whole livers were homogenized, and total genomic DNA was extracted from a portion of the liver lysate. The frequency of targeted integration into albumin intron 1 in the forward orientation was quantitated using the DD-PCR assay described in Example 1. The results for each mouse are summarized in Table 3.


The results show the mean targeted integration frequency (% per haploid genome) in the mice injected with AAV8-pCB099 was 1.86 (±0.25), while for mice injected with AAV8-pCB102 the mean targeted integration frequency was 0.46 (±0.2). This difference was statistically significant using a two-tailed Student's T-test (p<0.01). These results demonstrate that including the B domain substitute resulted in a 4-fold higher frequency of targeted integration, a result that would not have been predicted given that previously inclusion of glycans in place of the B domain of FVIII has only been shown to improve the expression level of FVIII. The mean FVIII level in the blood of mice injected with AAV8-pCB099 was 18.6 (±2.2) % of normal, while for mice injected with AAV8-pCB102 the mean FVIII level was 1.7 (±1.1) % of normal. This 11-fold difference was statistically significant (p<0.01) using a two-tailed Student's T-test. FVIII levels were normalized to the targeted integration frequency by dividing the FVIII level by the targeted integration frequency in individual mice (Table 3). The mean of the ratios of FVIII activity divided by targeted integration frequency was 10.2 (±1.7) for the AAV8-pCB099 injected mice and 3.1 (±1.7) for the AAV8-pCB102 injected mice. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.01) using a two-tailed Student's T-test.


These data demonstrate that the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence in AAV8-pCB099 is threefold higher than that of AAV8-pCB102. Because AAV8-pCB099 differs from AAV8-pCB102 only by the presence of the N-glycan motif containing sequence, these data demonstrate that the N-glycan motif in AAV8-pCB099 confers a three fold improvement in intrinsic expression efficiency. Therefore, the overall 11-fold improvement in FVIII levels in the blood of the mice is due to a combination of four fold higher targeted integration and three fold improved expression efficiency of the integrated FVIII coding sequence.

Example 3: Optimization of the Number of N-Glycans in the B Domain Substitute

The data from Examples 1 and 2 demonstrate that inserting a B domain substitute containing six N-linked glycan motifs improved expression of FVIII as well as the frequency of targeted integration. However, the dependence of this improvement on the number of N-glycan sequences in the B domain substitute was unknown. We therefore designed experiments to probe this aspect of FVIII expression. In particular, it was desirable to determine the minimum number of N-linked glycan motifs required for improvement in FVIII expression.


Plasmid Constructs


To explore the effect of different numbers of N-glycan motifs on expression, a series of donor plasmids were constructed containing between one and nine N-glycan motifs. These are summarized in Table 4. All plasmids were composed of the following sequence elements, in order from 5′ to 3′: target sequence for mAlbT1 gRNA|18 bp spacer|splice acceptor|B domain deleted FVIII coding sequence in which the signal peptide is replaced by the TG dinucleotide|polyadenylation signal sequence. In each of these plasmids, the FVIII coding sequence was based on the codon optimized sequence used in pCB076 (see Example 1) in which the signal peptide is replaced by the TG dinucleotide, but having from one to nine N-linked glycosylation sites in the B domain substitute. All plasmids contained the same pUC19-based bacterial plasmid backbone (containing the bacterial origin of replication and kanamycin resistance gene).

In Vivo Testing of Constructs: 5, 6, and 7 Glycans


Hemophilia A mice were dosed with 30 μg per mouse of plasmids pCB077, pCB1006, pCB1007, or pCB1008 by hydrodynamic injection, using the method of Example 1. One day later, the same mice were injected retro-orbitally with a 1:1 mixture of LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA and mALbT1 gRNA, at a total RNA dose of 2 mg/kg body weight. The LNP were prepared as described in Example 1. FVIII activity was measured in the blood of the mice six days later using the method set forth in Example 1. The results are summarized in FIG. 3, and demonstrated that the level of FVIII produced by the four plasmid donors was similar.


The level of FVIII produced in the blood of the mice in this study depends on both the frequency of targeted integration into albumin intron 1 in the forward orientation (the orientation capable of producing FVIII protein) and the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence is a function of the transcription rate, the translation efficiency (which is impacted by the type of codon optimization that is used), and the efficiency of the secretion process. In the case of the FVIII protein it has been suggested that secretion of the protein can be a rate limiting step (M. Swaroop et al., supra) and is associated with the unfolded protein response (R. J. Kaufman, supra) that occurs when FVIII is expressed at high levels in cells. To distinguish between targeted integration frequency, which is expected to vary between individual mice, and the intrinsic expression efficiency of the integrated synthetic FVIII coding sequence, the targeted integration frequency was quantified using droplet digital PCR (DD-PCR) as described in Example 1.


Eight days after the mice were dosed with LNP, the mice were sacrificed, the whole liver was homogenized, and total genomic DNA was purified using the Qiagen DNeasy® Tissue kit. Equal mass amounts of genomic DNA were then assayed for targeted integration frequency using DD-PCR. The results for each mouse are summarized in Table 5. The targeted integration frequency in the forward orientation ranged from 0.17% to 0.70% in individual mice, but the average within each group of mice for the four plasmids was similar at 0.49%, 0.47%, 0.52%, and 0.38% for pCB077, pCB1006, pCB1007, and pCB1008 respectively. The mean of the ratio of FVIII activity to TI for the mice injected with pCB077, pCB1006, pCB1007, and pCB1008 was 51.33, 48.54, 48.9, and 38.9, respectively, and the differences between the plasmids were not statistically significant. These results demonstrate that synthetic FVIII coding sequences containing five N-glycan sites (pCB1007) or seven glycan sites (pCB1008), or in which one of the glycan tripeptide motifs was altered from NDS to NDT (pCB1006), have similar intrinsic expression efficiency compared to a synthetic FVIII coding sequence encoding six N-glycan sites (pCB077).


Identical mouse studies are performed with plasmids pCB1015 (SEQ ID NO: 328) and pCB1016 (SEQ ID NO: 329), in which the number of N-glycan motifs is changed to eight and nine, respectively. In addition, plasmids identical to pCB077 except having only one or two N-glycan motifs were constructed and tested for their ability to express FVIII after targeted integration into mouse albumin intron 1 using the same gRNA and spCas9 mRNA delivered in an LNP.

In Vivo Testing of Constructs: 3, 4, and 5 Glycans


Plasmids pCB1007, pCB1017, and pCB1018 were purified and administered to Hemophilia A mice as described above. One day later, the mice were given retro-orbital (RO) injections of a C12-200 based LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA (1 mg/kg) and the guide RNA (gRNA) mAlbT1 (1 mg/kg). Blood samples were taken five days and seven days post LNP dosing by RO bleed into sodium citrate (1:9 ratio of sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma collected by centrifugation. The FVIII activity in the plasma was measured using the method set forth in Example 1.


The FVIII activity in the blood on day five averaged 8.1%, 5.0%, and 23.5% in mice injected with pCB1007, pCB1018, and pCB1018, respectively. On day 7, the FVIII activity averaged 7.9%, 3.0%, and 13.5% in mice injected with pCB1007, pCB1018 and pCB1018, respectively. Thus, the FVIII expression in mice that were injected with plasmids having four N-glycan motifs (pCB1017) or three N-glycan motifs (pCB1018) was similar to that of mice that received a plasmid containing five N-glycan motifs in the B domain substitute (pCB1007).


After the blood sample was taken on day seven post LNP administration, the mice were sacrificed and the whole livers were removed and stored in RNAlater™ buffer (Qiagen). The whole liver was homogenized using a bead-based homogenizer, and DNA was purified from an aliquot of the homogenate using a Qiagen DNA/RNA Mini Kit (cat #80204). The liver genomic DNA was analyzed by DD-PCR for the frequency of integration of the FVIII donor cassette in the forward orientation as described in Example 1. The average targeted integration frequency was 0.27%, 0.27%, and 0.55% for the mice injected with pCB1007, pCB1017, and pCB1018 respectively, and these values were not statistically different (two-tailed Student's T-test).


Normalizing the FVIII level in the blood of each mouse to the integration frequency provides a measure of the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The average of the ratio of FVIII level divided by targeted integration frequency was 23.6 for pCB1007 (five N-glycans) injected mice, 11.6 for pCB1017 (four N-glycans) injected mice, and 23.3 for pCB1018 (three N-glycans) injected mice. The FVIII divided by targeted integration ratios for pCB1017 and pCB1018 injected mice were not statistically different from that of the pCB1007 injected mice.


These data demonstrate that using a synthetic FVIII coding sequence containing a B domain substitute having either four N-glycan motifs or three N-glycan motifs results in similar expression to a FVIII coding sequence containing five N-glycan motifs when integrated into albumin intron 1. Therefore, synthetic FVIII constructs having B domain substitutes with three N-glycan motifs provide improved FVIII expression equivalent to that provided by B domain substitutes with five N-glycan motifs. By inference, because five N-glycan motif containing B domain substitutes were equivalent to six N-glycan motifs containing B domain substitutes, we infer that three N-glycan motifs are equivalently potent as six N-glycan motifs.


In Vivo Testing of Constructs: One and Two Glycans


Plasmids pCB1018 (comprising the FVIII donor with B domain substitute with three N-glycan motifs), pCB1029 (comprising the FVIII donor with B domain substitute with two N-glycan motifs), and pCB1030 (comprising the FVIII donor with B domain substitute with one N-glycan motif) were purified and administered to Hemophilia A mice by hydrodynamic injection as described above. One day later, the mice were given retro-orbital (RO) injections of a C12-200 based LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA (1 mg/kg) and the gRNA mAlbT1 (1 mg/kg). Blood samples were taken five days and eight days post LNP dosing by RO bleed into sodium citrate (1:9 sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma collected by centrifugation. The FVIII activity in the plasma was measured as described above, and expressed as percent of normal activity (1 U/mL=100%).


The FVIII activity in the blood on day five averaged 12.8%, 15.8%, and 13.4% in mice injected with pCB1018, pCB1029, and pCB1030, respectively. On day eight, the FVIII activity averaged 13.8%, 14.5%, and 16.0% in mice injected with pCB1018, pCB1029, and pCB1030, respectively. Thus, the FVIII expression in mice that were injected with plasmids containing B domain substitutes with three N-glycan motifs (pCB1018), two N-glycan motifs (pCB1029), or one N-glycan motif (pCB1030) were similar to each other.


After the blood sample was taken on day seven post LNP administration, the mice were sacrificed, and the whole liver was removed and stored in RNAlater™ buffer (Qiagen). The whole liver was homogenized, and the liver genomic DNA was analyzed by DD-PCR for the frequency of integration of the FVIII donor cassette in the forward orientation as described in Example 1. The average targeted integration frequency was 0.29%, 0.47%, and 0.36% for the mice injected with pCB1018, pCB1029, and pCB1030, respectively: these values were not statistically different (two-tailed Student's T-test).


Normalizing the FVIII level in the blood of each mouse to the integration frequency provides a measure of the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The average of the ratio of FVIII level divided by targeted integration frequency was 41.9 for pCB1018 (three N-glycans) injected mice, 31.4 for pCB1029 (two N-glycans) injected mice, and 40.2 for pCB1030 (one N-glycan) injected mice. The intrinsic expression efficiency for pCB1029 (three N-glycans) and pCB1030 (two N-glycans) injected mice were not statistically different from that of the pCB1018 (three N-glycans) injected mice. These data demonstrate that FVIII donor cassettes comprising B domain substitutes containing either two N-glycan motifs (amino acid sequence NATNVS) or one N-glycan motif (amino acid sequence NAT) are expressed with equal efficiency as a FVIII donor cassette containing B domain substitutes having three N-glycan motifs.

Comparison of In Vivo FVIII Expression Results for FVIII Donor Cassettes Containing B Domain Substitutes Containing 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 N-Linked Glycan Motifs


The intrinsic expression efficiencies of the different FVIII cassettes tested above were compared. The data sets described throughout Example 3 were generated in a total of five studies, using the same strain of mice (Hemophilia A mice) and the same experimental protocol. FVIII activity was measured on either day five or six, and again on day eight or nine. The targeted integration frequency was measured in DNA extracted from the whole liver of the mice which had been sacrificed on the day of the last FVIII activity measurement (day eight or nine). A compilation of the intrinsic expression efficiencies is shown in FIG. 8. Included in this comparison are FVIII cassettes with different codon optimizations. A comparison of the impact of different numbers of glycans upon normalized FVIII expression can be performed for donors with the codon optimization called “co1” which are the first nine bars in FIG. 8. These donors contain FVIII cassettes that differ only in the numbers of N-glycan motifs in the B domain substitute. The intrinsic expression efficiencies were not significantly different for glycan variants containing between one and seven N-glycan motifs. While the donor with two N-glycan motifs (“co1-2”) showed a trend to lower normalized FVIII activity (a value of 30, compared to value of about 45 for the variants with five, six, or seven N-glycans), this difference was not statistically significant. The donor with no N-glycan motifs in place of the B domain (“co1-0”) exhibited significantly lower normalized FVIII activity (a value of 7.4, compared to 40 to 50 for the variants with glycans and the same codon optimization). The FVIII donor with five glycans and codon optimization co2 was equivalent to co1 with five N-glycan motifs, while co3 with five N-glcyans was expressed at about 50% of the efficiency of co1 with five N-glycans. These data demonstrate that a FVIII coding sequence containing a B domain substitute comprising a single N-glycan motif was sufficient to confer FVIII expression levels equivalent to that achieved with B domain substitutes comprising between two and seven N-glycan motifs. The FVIII coding sequence containing the B domain substitute comprising a single N-glycan motif (“co1-1”/pCB1030 in FIG. 8) was expressed about 5.4-fold more efficiently (40.1/7.4) than the same FVIII coding sequence that lacked a B domain substitute (“co1-0”/pCB100). Therefore, a FVIIII coding sequence containing a B domain substitute with less than 6 N-glycans, for example 5 N-glycans, 4 N-glycans, 3-N-glycans, 2 N-glycans, or 1 N-glycan has advantages for use in gene editing approaches due to the reduction in the number of non-native amino acids added to the FVIII protein, as well as the reduction in size of the DNA donor.


Example 4: Identification of Optimal Codon Optimization of the FVIII Coding Sequence for Expression after Targeted Integration into a Safe Harbor Locus (e.g., Albumin Locus) in Mice

Plasmid Constructs


Experiments were performed to determine the effects of different forms of codon optimization on the expression of synthetic FVIII. The mature (lacking the signal peptide) B domain deleted human FVIII coding sequence containing the 14 amino acid SQ linker in place of the B domain (a total coding sequence of 1438 amino acids) was codon optimized by applying the commercially available algorithm available at GeneArt (co3), which increased the number of CG dinucleotides from the 54 that exist in the native sequence to 198. A variant of the co3 form of B domain deleted FVIII (“co4”) was created by manually eliminating all 198 CG dinucleotides, by selecting an alternate codon that was either the next most frequent codon or a more frequently used codon according to a published H. sapiens codon usage table (H. C. Brown et al., Mol Ther Meth & Clin Dev (2018) 9:57-69 (doi: 10.1016/j.omtm.2018.01.004). B domain deleted FVIII (“FVIII-BDD”) coding sequences were codon optimized using an algorithm based on the codon bias of genes highly expressed in the liver (H. C. Brown et al., supra) to generate FVIII-BDD co2, containing 176 CG dinucleotides. This construct that was further modified to remove all the CG dinucleotides, referred to here as FVIII-BDD co5, was also synthesized. The codon optimized FVIII-BDD coding sequence of J. McIntosh et al., Blood (2013) 121(17):3335-44 and U.S. Pat. No. 9,393,323 (SEQ ID NO: 1 therein) was also constructed, referred to herein as “co1.” A further codon optimized variant of the B domain deleted FVIII coding sequence published in WO2011/005968 (SEQ ID NO: 5 therein) that contains 245 CG dinucleotides was synthesized (“FVIII-BDD cob” herein). Plasmids were constructed as follows: pUC19 plasmid backbone|ITR|target site for gRNA mALbT1|18 bp spacer|splice acceptor (SA)|TG dinucleotide|B domain deleted FVIII sequence|polyA (sPA)|target site for gRNA mALbT1|ITR, where the donor sequence codon optimizations were co2 (pCB1002, SEQ ID NO: 323), co3 (pCB1001, SEQ ID NO: 322), co4 (pCB1000, SEQ ID NO: 321), or co5 (pCB103, SEQ ID NO: 336).


The FVIII donor cassettes in each plasmid were flanked by the AAV2 ITR and used to package the cassettes into AAV8 using a HEK293-based packaging system, and purified using cesium chloride density centrifugation. The resulting AAV8 viruses (designated as AAV8-pCB103, AAV8-pCB1002, AAV8-pCB1001, and AAV8-pCB1000) were titered using Q-PCR or DD-PCR with primer/probe sets located within the coding sequence for the FVIII gene. These FVIII donor cassettes are designed to express FVIII only after targeted integration into albumin intron 1. The donor cassettes lack a promoter and thus are incapable of being transcribed into mRNA from non-integrated episomal viral genomes. In addition, all the FVIII donor cassettes lack a signal peptide sequence at the N-terminus of the FVIII coding sequence, and therefore any protein that might be expressed from non-integrated episomal viral copies cannot be secreted into the circulation. After integration into albumin intron 1, transcription from an albumin promoter in the genome produces a hybrid pre-mRNA comprising the mouse albumin exon 1, part of intron 1, and the synthetic FVIII coding sequence, terminating at the polyadenylation signal included at the 5′ end of the FVIII donor cassette. Splicing of this pre-mRNA between the splice donor of albumin exon 1 and the splice acceptor included at the 5′ end of the FVIII donor cassette generates an mRNA in which exon 1 of albumin encodes a signal peptide and pre-pro-peptide fused in-frame to the mature FVIII coding sequence. The protein encoded by this hybrid mRNA is processed through the secretion machinery of the cell, during which the signal peptide and pre-pro peptide of albumin should be cleaved off, resulting in a predicted two chain FVIII molecule in which three amino acids not normally present in FVIII are included at the N-terminus of the heavy chain.


In Vivo Testing of Constructs


To test these formulations, cohorts of four or five Hemophilia A mice were injected via the tail vein with each of the AAV8 viruses (AAV8-pCB103, AAV8-pCB1002, AAV8-pCB1001, and AAV8-pCB1000) at a dose of 2×1012 vg/kg. Four weeks later, all of the mice were injected i.v. with a 1:1 mixture of LNP encapsulating mAlbT1 gRNA and spCas9 mRNA at a total RNA dose of 2 mg/kg. The LNP was formulated according to the method described in Example 1. FVIII activity in the blood was measured using the method set forth in Example 1. The results are summarized in FIG. 4.


In these experiments, mice that received AAV8-pCB103 and AAV8-pCB1002 (containing FVIII-BDD with codon optimizations co5 and co2, respectively) did not have detectable FVIII activity in their blood. Mice that received virus pCB1001 (codon optimization co3) had on average 8% FVIII activity on day 11 and 20% FVIII activity on day 28 after LNP dosing. Three of the five mice that received virus AAV8-pCB1000 (codon optimization co4) had FVIII activity levels of 1% to 3% of normal. These data demonstrate that a FVIII-BDD DNA sequence that was codon optimized using the GeneArt algorithm (AAV8-pCB1001, co3) resulted in higher levels of FVIII expression than the FVIII-BDD codon optimized based on most frequent codons of genes highly expressed in the liver (AAV8-pCB103 and AAV8-pCB1002). Modification of the GeneArt codon-optimized FVIII-BDD sequence to remove CG dinucleotides (AAV8-pCB1000, co4) resulted in a reduction in FVIII expression compared with the same cassette in which the FVIII-BDD was codon optimized using the GeneArt algorithm that retained CG dinucleotides. The FVIII-BDD with the co4 codon optimization was able to generate measurable FVIII activity, unlike the co2 and co5 codon optimizations. Mice that received AAV8-pCB102 (co1 codon optimized FVIII-BDD DNA sequence, see Example 2) did not generate FVIII activity in Hemophilia A mice when delivered in AAV8 at the same dose of 2×1012 vg/kg and the same dose of LNP was used (Example 2, FIG. 2, AAV8-pCB102). This demonstrates that co1 was inferior to the co3 and co4 codon optimized FVIII-BDD sequences for expression of FVIII after targeted integration into albumin intron 1 in mice.


Example 5: Expression of FVIII in Mice after Targeted Integration into Albumin Intron 1 of a Donor Template Encoding Synthetic FVIII with Five N-Glycans and Alternative Codon Optimizations Co4 and Co5

To test the effects of different codon optimizations using synthetic FVIII having a B domain substitute, FVIII-BDD coding sequences lacking the signal peptide were constructed using the three codon optimized DNA sequences designated co1, co4 and co5, and further containing B domain substitute in place of the B domain. The B domain substitute contained five N-glycan motifs (sequence: ATNVSNNSNTSNDS, SEQ ID NO: 343). These coding sequences were flanked on the 5′ side by the target site for the mALbT1 gRNA, an 18 bp spacer, a splice acceptor, and two nucleotides (TG). The TG dinucleotide maintains the correct reading frame after splicing to mouse albumin exon 1. The short polyadenylation signal (sPA) was included at the 3′ end of the coding sequence. The synthetic FVIII coding sequences in these three plasmids encode FVIII proteins with identical amino acid sequences, but the coding sequences are encoded by different DNA sequences due to the different codon optimizations. These plasmids designated as pCB1007 (co1, SEQ ID NO: 326), pCB1019 (co4, SEQ ID NO: 332), and pCB1020 (co5, SEQ ID NO: 333) were tested in Hemophilia A mice for their ability to express active FVIII protein after targeted integration into albumin intron 1 mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 cleavage at the target site for the mALbT1 gRNA.


The experimental protocol was identical to that in Example 1. The plasmid DNA of plasmids pCB1007, pCB1019, and pCB1029 was purified using Qiagen EndoFree® maxiprep kits (cat #12362) and then diluted in 0.9% saline to a final concentration of 15 μg/mL. Cohorts of Hemophilia A mice were injected with 2 mL of the diluted plasmid DNA per mouse by HDI. One day later the mice were given retro-orbital injections of a C12-200 based LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA (1 mg/kg of body weight) and gRNA mAlbT1 (1 mg/kg body weight). A cohort of five Hemophilia A mice that were injected with only the LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA and mALbT1 gRNA were sacrificed three days after dosing, and genomic DNA extracted from the whole liver was analyzed for indels at the on-target site in albumin intron 1. The mean indel frequency was 52.9%, indicating efficient cleavage at the on-target site in the liver.


Six days and nine days after the mice injected with plasmid were dosed with LNP, blood samples were taken by RO bleed into sodium citrate (1:9 ratio of sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma was collected by centrifugation. The FVIII activity in the plasma was measured using the method set forth in Example 1. The results are summarized in FIG. 5.


The mean FVIII activity in mice that received the plasmids pCB1007, pCB1019, or pCB1020 was 22.3%, 17.6%, and 17.8% of normal on day six post LNP dosing. The mean FVIII activity in mice that received the plasmids pCB1007, pCB1019, or pCB1020 was 19.7, 14.1, and 14.9% of normal on day nine post LNP dosing. The FVIII levels in mice dosed with the three plasmids were not statistically significantly different on either day six or day nine when evaluated using a homoscedastic (2 sample equal variance) two-tailed T-test (p values all >0.28).


These results demonstrate that in the context of a donor template encoding a synthetic FVIII having a B domain substitute containing five N-glycan motifs in place of the B domain, codon optimizations co1, co4 and co5 (all of which lack CG dinucleotides) produced similar levels of FVIII after targeted integration into albumin intron 1. Therefore, there is no apparent advantage to a specific codon optimization, and any CpG-free codon optimizations (e.g., co1, co4, and co5) provides similar levels of synthetic FVIII protein after targeted integration.


Example 6: Combination of B Domain Substitute and Mutation of F309 to S or A

It has been reported that a point mutation (F309S) within a potential binding site for the chaperone immunoglobulin binding protein (BiP) in the A1 domain improved secretion of B domain deleted FVIII about three fold in cells in culture (M. Swaroop et al., J Biol Chem (1997) 272:24121-24). The F309A mutein of FVIII had similarly improved secretion. The combination of F309S and the 226 amino acid N-terminal portion of the B domain was reported to improve FVIII levels in vivo in mice by 20 to 30-fold compared to B domain deleted FVIII while the addition of the 226 amino acid N-terminus of the B domain improved FVIII levels by only five fold (H. Z. Miao et al., Blood (2004) 103(9):3412-19).


To evaluate if a combination of a B domain substitute with substitution of the phenylalanine residue at 309 with serine or alanine results in a further improvement in FVIII expression after targeted integration, plasmids pCB1025 (SEQ ID NO: 334) and pCB1026 (SEQ ID NO: 335) were constructed. Both plasmids contained the co4 codon optimized FVIII DNA sequence having B domain substitute containing five N-linked glycosylation sites. The plasmids had the following elements: pUC19 plasmid backbone|target site for gRNA mALbT1|18 bp spacer|splice acceptor (SA)|TG dinucleotide|FVIII sequence (co4) with five site B domain substitute|polyA (sPA). Plasmid pCB1007 was identical to pCB1025 and pCB1026, except that pCB1025 had Ala instead of Phe at position 309, and pCB1026 had Ser instead of Phe at position 309. Plasmid pCB1007 was used as a comparator in the study.


The experimental protocol was identical to that in Example 1. Plasmids pCB1007, pCB1025, and pCB1026 were purified using Qiagen EndoFree® maxiprep kits (cat #12362), and then diluted in 0.9% saline to a final concentration of 15 μg/mL. Cohorts of hemophilia A mice were injected with 2 mL of the diluted plasmid DNA per mouse by HDI. One day later, the mice were given RO injections of a C12-200 based LNP encapsulating spCas9 mRNA (1 mg/kg) and the gRNA mAlbT1 (1 mg/kg). Five days post LNP dosing (pCB1025, pCB1026) or six days post LNP dosing (pCB1019) blood samples were taken by RO bleed into sodium citrate (1:9 ratio of sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma collected by centrifugation. FVIII activity in the plasma was measured using the method set forth in Example 1. FVIII activities were similar in the three groups of mice injected with pCB1019, pCB1025, or pCB1026 with average FVIII activities of 17.6%, 27.2%, and 24.5%, respectively.


FVIII activity in the blood of the same Hemophilia A mice was also assayed at day nine post LNP (pCB1019 injected mice) or seven days post LNP (pCB1025 and pCB1026 injected mice). The mice were then sacrificed, and whole livers were prepared and analyzed for integration frequency as described in Example 1 above. The targeted integration frequencies were similar between the three groups with average frequencies of 0.42 for pCB1019 injected mice, 0.47 for pCB1025 injected mice, and 0.36 for pCB1026 injected mice.


Normalizing the FVIII level in the blood of each mouse to the integration frequency provides a measure of the intrinsic expression efficiency of the FVIII coding sequence. The average of the ratio of FVIII level divided by targeted integration frequency was 37.4 for pCB1019 injected mice, 41.5 for pCB1025 injected mice, and 49.9 for pCB1026 injected mice. The difference in the FVIII activity normalized to targeted integration for pCB1025 and pCB1026 injected mice compared to the pCB1019 injected mice was not statistically significant (two-tailed Student's T-test), which demonstrates that changing amino acid F309 to serine or alanine (in the context of a FVIII-BDD cassette containing five N-glycan motifs in place of the B domain) did not improve FVIII expression. Thus, not all amino acid changes made to the FVIII protein have an effect on FVIII expression after targeted integration in to albumin intron 1.


Example 7: Targeted Integration of a Synthetic FVIII into Transferrin Intron 1 by a CRISPR/Cas Nuclease Results in Expression of Therapeutic Levels of Human FVIII

DNA Constructs


To examine integration into and expression from a transferrin locus, as an alternative to an albumin locus, a human FVIII donor cassette (SEQ ID NO: 224) was constructed with sequence elements in order from 5′ to 3′ as follows: the inverted terminal repeat of AAV2 (ITR)|the target site for gRNA mTF-T2|an 18 bp spacer|a splice acceptor|a sequence (ggctgtgtctggct, SEQ ID NO: 225) that encodes the last four amino acids of the signal peptide of mouse transferrin|a synthetic FVIII coding sequence|a polyadenylation signal (spA)|the target site for gRNA mTF-T2|and the inverted terminal repeat of AAV2 (ITR). The sequence of the target site for gRNA mTF-T2 was the reverse complement of the target sequence in the mouse genome, which may favor integration in the forward orientation. The polyadenylation signal is a short 49 bp sequence reported to effectively direct polyadenylation (N. Levitt et al., Genes Dev (1989) 3:1019-25). The synthetic FVIII coding sequence encoded a B domain substitute containing the amino acid sequence SFSQN-ATNVSNNSNTSNDSNVSPPVLKRHQR (SEQ ID NO: 226) in place of the B domain, and included a heterologous 31 amino acid sequence replacing the B domain. This sequence contains six tripeptides corresponding to N-linked glycosylation sites (represented in bold), and is indicated to improve the expression of FVIII (J. McIntosh et al., Blood (2013) 121:3335-44).


Packaging of the pCB1009 FVIII donor DNA into AAV8 was accomplished using established viral packaging methods in HEK293 cells that were transfected with three plasmids; one encoding the AAV packaging proteins, the second encoding adenovirus helper proteins, and the third containing the FVIII donor DNA sequence flanked by AAV ITR sequences. The transfected cells gave rise to AAV particles of the serotype specified by the composition of the AAV capsid proteins encoded on the first plasmid. These AAV particles were collected from the cell supernatant or the supernatant and the lysed cells, and purified over a CsCl gradient. The purified viral particles were quantified by measuring the number of genome copies of the donor DNA by digital droplet PCR (DD-PCR).


In Vivo Testing of Constructs


A cohort of five Hemophilia A mice was injected intravenously (i.v.) into the tail vein with AAV8-pCB1009 at a dose of 2×1012 vg/kg body weight. The AAV8 virus preferentially transduces hepatocytes. Four weeks later, the same mice were injected i.v. with a 1:1 (by mass of RNA) mixture of two LNPs, one encapsulating an spCas9 mRNA and one encapsulating the guide RNA mTF-T2, at a total RNA dose of 2 mg/kg of body weight. The LNPs are taken up primarily by hepatocytes. Ten days after dosing the LNP, blood samples were obtained and assayed as described above. FVIII activity averaged 954% (±251%) of normal human FVIII levels (FIG. 6), equivalent to 9.54 IU/mL or 9.5-fold greater than average levels in humans without hemophilia. Naïve Hemophilia A mice had undetectable FVIII activity (<0.5% of normal).


These data demonstrate that targeting integration of a FVIII coding sequence into intron 1 of transferrin can result in high levels of FVIII expression and activity, demonstrating the utility of this method for treating a condition having a defective FVIII such as hemophilia A.


Example 8: Additional Modes of Delivery

In another example, the donor template is delivered in vivo using a non-viral LNP delivery system. DNA molecules are encapsulated into LNP particles similar to those described above, and delivered to the liver by i.v. injection. While DNA escape from the endosome to the cytoplasm occurs relatively efficiently, translocation of large charged DNA molecules into the nucleus is not efficient. In one case, the delivery of DNA to the nucleus is improved by mimicking the AAV genome by incorporating AAV ITR sequences into the donor template. In this case, the ITR sequences stabilize the DNA or otherwise improve nuclear translocation. Removing CG di-nucleotides (CpG sequences) from the donor template sequence also improves nuclear delivery. DNA containing CG di-nucleotides is recognized by the innate immune system and eliminated. Removal of CpG sequences that are present in artificial DNA sequences improves the persistence of DNA delivered by non-viral and viral vectors. The process of codon optimization generally increases the content of CG di-nucleotides because the most frequent codons in many cases have a C residue in the 3rd position, which increases the chance of creating a CG when the next codon starts with a G. A combination of LNP delivery of the donor template followed one hour to five days later with an LNP containing the gRNA and Cas9 mRNA is evaluated in Hemophilia A mice.


In vivo delivery of the gRNA and the Cas9 mRNA can be accomplished by known methods. In one method, the gRNA and Cas9 protein are expressed from an AAV viral vector. In this case, the transcription of the gRNA is driven by a U6 promoter, and the Cas9 mRNA transcription is driven by either a ubiquitous promoter, e.g., EF1-alpha, or a liver-specific promoter/enhancer, such as the transthyretin promoter/enhancer. The size of the spCas9 coding sequence (4.4 Kb) precludes inclusion of the spCas9 and the gRNA cassettes in a single AAV, thereby requiring separate AAV to deliver the gRNA and spCas9. In a second case, an AAV vector that has sequence elements that promote self-inactivation of the viral genome is used. In this case, including cleavage sites for the gRNA in the vector DNA results in cleavage of the vector DNA in vivo. By including cleavage sites in locations that block expression of the Cas9 when cleaved, Cas9 expression is limited to a shorter time period. In a third, alternative approach to deliver gRNA and Cas9 to cells in vivo, a non-viral delivery method is used. In one example, LNP are used as a non-viral delivery method. Several different ionizable cationic lipids are available for use in LNP. These include C12-200, MC3, LN16, and MD1, among others. In one type of LNP, a GalNac moiety is attached to the outside of the LNP and acts as a ligand for uptake into the liver via the asialoglycoprotein receptor. Any of these cationic lipids are used to formulate LNP for delivery of gRNA and Cas9 mRNA to the liver.


Example 9: Targeted Integration of a Therapeutic Coding Sequence at Mouse Fibrinogen Alpha Intron 1

To examine integration into and expression from a fibrinogen alpha locus, as an alternative to an albumin or a transferrin locus, an AAV8 virus (AAV8-pCB1010, SEQ ID NO: 361) was constructed having a cassette with the following elements: a target site for the gRNA mFGA-T6, a 18 bp spacer, a FIX splice acceptor, the mature human FVIII coding sequence (with N-terminus modified so as to complete the FGA signal peptide after splicing to endogenous FGA exon 1) in which the B domain was replaced by six N-glycan motifs, a polyadenylation sequence and the target site for the gRNA mFGA-T6.


Hemophilia A mice were injected with AAV8-pCB1010, followed 28 days later with an LNP encapsulating the T6 gRNA (targeting mouse fibrinogen alpha intron 1) and a Cas9 mRNA. Ten days after dosing of the LNP, blood samples were taken by retro-orbital bleeds into capillary tubes containing sodium citrate (1:9 ratio of sodium citrate to blood), and the plasma was collected by centrifugation. The plasma samples were then assayed for FVIII as described above. Assay results were reported as percentage of normal human FVIII activity (normal defined as 1 IU/mL). FVIII activity averaged 1124% (±527%) of normal human FVIII levels, equivalent to 11.24 IU/mL or 11-fold greater than average levels in humans without hemophilia. Naïve Hemophilia A mice had undetectable FVIII activity (<0.5% of normal). Because the AAV8-pCB1010 virus contains a FVIII cassette in which the coding sequence lacks a signal peptide and also lacks a promoter, this virus alone is incapable of giving rise to secreted FVIII protein.


These data demonstrate the suitability of fibrinogen as a site for insertion of a coding sequence. Further, they demonstrate that a B domain substituted FVIII sequence can be used to express useful amounts of an FVIII. Accordingly, such constructs and methods can be used for treating disorders associated with defective FVIII.


Example 10: Identification and Selection of Guide RNAs that Cleave Efficiently at Human Albumin Intron 1 in Primary Human Hepatocytes in Culture

To demonstrate operation of the system of the invention in human hepatocytes, four gRNA (T4—SEQ ID NO: 357, T5—SEQ ID NO: 358, T11—SEQ ID NO: 359, and T13—SEQ ID NO: 360) were prepared, based on having perfect identity between human and a non-human primate and the screening for cutting efficiency in HuH7 and HepG2 cells, for evaluation of cutting efficiency in primary human hepatocytes. Primary human hepatocytes (obtained from BioIVT) were thawed, transferred to Cryopreserved Hepatocyte Recovery Medium (CHRM) (Gibco), pelleted at low speed, then plated in InVitroGRO™ CP Medium (BioIVT) plus Torpedo™ Antibiotic Mix (BioIVT) at a density of 0.7×106 cells/mL in 24-well plates pre-coated with collagen IV (Corning). Plates were incubated in 5% CO 2 at 37° C. After the cells adhered (3-4 hours after plating), dead cells that had not adhered to the plate were washed out with fresh warm complete medium, additional medium was added, and cells were incubated in 5% CO 2 at 37° C. To transfect the cells, Cas9 mRNA (Trilink) and guide RNA were thawed on ice, then added to 30 μL Opti-Mem™ media (Gibco) at 0.6 μg mRNA and 0.2 μg guide RNA per well. MessengerMax™ (Thermo Fisher) diluted in 30 μL in Opti-Mem™ at a 2:1 volume to total nucleic acid weight was incubated with the Cas9 mRNA/gRNA Opti-Mem™ solution at room temperature for 20 minutes. This mixture was added dropwise to the 500 μL of hepatocyte plating medium per well of cultured hepatocytes in a 24-well plate, and the cells incubated in 5% CO 2 at 37° C. The cells were washed and re-fed the next morning. Cells were collected for genomic DNA extraction 48 hours post-transfection by adding 200 μL of warm 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (Gibco) to each well and incubating 5 to 10 minutes at 37° C. Once cells were dislodged, 200 μL FBS (Gibco) was added to inactivate trypsin. After adding 1 mL PBS (Gibco) the cells were pelleted at 1200 rpm for three minutes, then resuspended in 50 μL PBS. Genomic DNA was extracted using the MagMAX™ DNA Multi-Sample Ultra 2.0 Kit (Applied Biosytems) following the kit instructions. The genomic DNA quality and concentration was analyzed using a spectrophotometer. For TIDE analysis, the genomic DNA was PCR amplified using primers flanking the predicted on-target cleavage site (AlbF: CCCTCCGTTTGTCCTAGCTTTTC, SEQ ID NO: 353, and AlbR: CCAGATACAGAATATCTTCCTCAACGCAGA, SEQ ID NO: 354) and Platinum® PCR SuperMix High Fidelity (Invitrogen™) using 35 cycles of PCR and an annealing temperature of 55° C. PCR products were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis to confirm that the right sized product (1053 bp) had been generated, then purified and sequenced using primers (forward: CCTTTGGCACAATGAAGTGG, SEQ ID NO: 355; reverse: GAATCTGAACCCTGATGACAAG, SEQ ID NO: 356). Sequence data were analyzed using a modified version of the TIDES algorithm (E. K. Brinkman et al., Nuc Acids Res (2014) 42(22):e168) named Tsunami, that determines the frequency of indels present at the predicted cut site for the gRNA/Cas9 complex.


Guide RNA containing either a 20 nucleotide target sequence or a 19 nucleotide target sequence (1 bp shorter at the 5′ end) of the T4 (SEQ ID NO: 357), T5 (SEQ ID NO: 358), T11 (SEQ ID NO: 359), and T13 (SEQ ID NO: 360) guides were tested. A 19 nucleotide gRNA may be more sequence specific, but a shorter guide may have lower potency (efficiency in double-strand cleavage, measured as indels). Control guides targeting human AAVS1 locus and human complement factor were included for comparison across donors. Indel frequency at the target site in albumin intron 1 was measured 48 hours after transfection using the TIDES method. FIG. 7 summarizes the results from transfections of primary hepatocyte from four different human donors.


The results demonstrate cutting efficiencies ranging from to 20% to 80% for the different guides. The 20 nucleotide version of each albumin gRNA was consistently more potent than the 19 nucleotide variant. The superior potency of the 20 nucleotide gRNAs may offset any potential benefit a 19 nucleotide gRNA may have in terms of less off-target cutting. Guide RNA T4 exhibited the most consistent cutting across the four cell donors with indel frequencies of about 60%.


Example 11: Evaluation of FVIII Expression from an AAV8 Virus Encapsulating a Codon Optimized FVIII Coding Sequence (CpG Free) with B-Domain Substitutes Composed of Different Numbers of N-Glycans Followed by a Single LNP Dose with gRNA Targeting the Transferrin Locus

This study evaluated FVIII expression from AAV8 virus encoding FVIII in which the B-domain substitutes contained either 0, 1, 3, 5, or 6 glycans. The FVIII coding sequece was codon optimized, and then CpG were eliminated manually. The constructs used in this study are shown in FIG. 9.


On Day 0, Hemophilia A mice (8-10 weeks old) were dosed with respective virus by tail vein injection. On Day 28, Hemophilia A mice were retro-orbital injected with lipid nano-particle (LNP) encapsulating Cas9 mRNA (411 μg/ml) and the guide RNA mTF-T2 (379 μg/ml). Study groups and dosage are shown in Table 7.

After the mice were sacrificed, the whole livers were homogenized, and total genomic DNA was extracted from a portion of the liver lysate. The frequency of targeted integration into albumin intron 1 in the forward orientation was quantitated using the DD-PCR assay described in Example 1. The results are shown in FIG. 12 and Table 10.
