🧬 Faced with the challenge to reliably synthesize and produce complex plasmid DNAs used in the production of viral vectors for gene therapy, Novel Biotechnology submitted 51 UTR sequences for complexity screening to three commonly used DNA synthesis vendors, as well as to Ansa. As they reported in this poster, the majority of the sequences were rejected outright by most vendors, but 100% were accepted for synthesis by Ansa. "Here we have shown how innovations in DNA synthesis and assembly enable the routine production of plasmid designs that would have been difficult, if not impossible, to generate using conventional techniques. These innovations include the use of Ansa’s enzymatic DNA synthesis platform in conjunction with Novel Bio’s in-house workflows for plasmid DNA production. The use of these technologies enabled us to seamlessly deliver on a complicated gene therapy project. Without this capability, this project would have become considerably more complex and costly." Thanks for sharing this success story, Novel Biotechnology Inc.! Interested in putting our #complexDNA synthesis services to the test on your project?

Potential for driving down vector costs and creating a more robust supply chain? In the world of gene therapy, a recent breakthrough promises to revolutionize manufacturing processes, especially in Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) production. The discovery of Membrane-Associated Accessory Protein (MAAP) and its role in AAV biology has sparked a focused exploration into optimizing manufacturing processes. A recent study by Schieferecke et al. outlines a directed evolution strategy to engineer MAAP variants with enhanced capabilities. Through iterative rounds of packaging MAAP variants into an AAV2 capsid, researchers observed a gradual increase in overall titer and the ratio of secreted vector genomes within the MAAP library population. Notably, specific MAAP variants exhibited augmented abilities to package transgenes in AAV2, AAV6, and AAV9 capsids. These findings not only deepen our understanding of AAV biology but also present a promising avenue for optimizing recombinant AAV manufacturing. This advancement holds significant implications for the biotechnology industry, offering a potential game-changer in the efficiency and scalability of gene therapy manufacturing. As we navigate the frontier of gene therapy, these insights pave the way for more robust and streamlined processes. For those inclined towards a more detailed exploration, the full article by Schieferecke et al. can be accessed here. Special commendations to the authors for their groundbreaking contribution to advancing the landscape of gene therapy manufacturing! #GeneTherapy #BiotechInnovation #AAVManufacturing #DirectedEvolution

Cell and gene therapy (C>) manufacturing is complex and far from standardization. In our latest interview, Jean-Simon Diallo, Virica’s CEO and Scientific Founder and Jondavid de Jong, VP of Scientific Operations, break down the key challenges of C> manufacturing and the need for tailored solutions to address these issues. Here are the top 3 insights: 💡 There is no “silver bullet” to tackle manufacturing bottlenecks. A winning strategy combines synergistic technologies for additive enhancement. 💡 There is an increasing emphasis on viral vector quality metrics, given the complexity of C> manufacturing and the “product is the process”. 💡 Cellular antiviral defenses pose a significant challenge to the yield and quality of viral vectors, making it imperative to address them during viral vector manufacturing. Ultimately, the goal is to make informed process optimizations and sustainably address the manufacturing barriers for cell & gene therapies.
