BRIDGE transfers multigene pathways into 10 yeast genera

A bioRxiv preprint describes BRIDGE, a platform that transferred a 16-kilobase, five-gene violacein pathway into ten phylogenetically diverse yeast genera. Expression was strongest across six tested Saccharomyces species and varied in other yeasts.

Preprint links P5 promoter to rAAV manufacturing DNA in patient liver

A medRxiv preprint identifies a possible manufacturing mechanism behind REP/CAP DNA sequences found in the liver of a patient treated with the rAAV gene therapy Zolgensma. The proposed mechanism involves the placement of the AAV P5 promoter in a manufacturing plasmid.
