SPECIFICATION
CROSS—REFERENCE TO D APPLICATIONS
This ational application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of
US. Provisional Patent ation No. 61/771,735, filed March 1, 2013, the
ty of which is incorporated herein.
Seguence Listing
The instant application contains a sequence listing which has been submitted
in ascii format and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said ascii

byte in size.
Background of the Invention
Epidermolysis bullosa (BB) is a group of genetic conditions that cause the
skin to be very fragile and to blister easily. Blisters and skin erosions form in
response to minor injury or friction, such as rubbing or scratching. Recessive
dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), the most severe and classical form of the
disease, is characterized by extensive blistering and scarring of the skin and mucosal
membranes. The COL7A1 mutations associated with RDEB impair the ability of
collagen 7 to connect the epidermis and ; and subsequent separation of the
epidermis and dermis as a result of friction or minor injury causes the severe
blistering and extensive ng of the skin associated with RDEB. People with
RDEB exhibit incurable, often fatal skin blistering and are at increased risk for
aggressive squamous cell carcinomal. Gene augmentation ies are promising,
but run the risk of ional mutagenesis. Current gene therapy tools (e. g., viral-
mediated gene—addition) rely on the provision of functional copies of a therapeutic
gene that integrate at random or semi-random into the . The consequences of
the random integration are perturbation of the locus where the cargo lands and
potential gene inactivation or dysregulation (off target effects). These can result in
life threatening side effects to the patient. It is therefore described herein engineered
transcription tor like effector nucleases (TALENs) for precision genome~
editing in cells of patients with, for example, RDEB, and other genetic disorders.
All references cited herein are orated by reference in their entireties.

Detailed Description of the Invention
The invention is directed to transcription tor-like effector nuclease
(TALEN)-mediated DNA editing of disease—causing mutations in the context of the
human genome and human cells to treat ts with compromised genetic
disorders. This is an advance over previous gene therapy trials/tools that rely on the
provision of functional copies of a therapeutic gene that integrate at random or semi-
random into the genome. The consequences of the previous gene therapy methods
are perturbation of the locus where the cargo lands and potential gene inactivation or
dysregulation. These can result in life threatening side effects. The approach
described herein maximizes safety and efficacy by employing a tailor made TALEN
for, for example, the human genes that corrects the mutation spot alone while
preserving the remainder of the genome in pristine condition — in other words, there
is no disruption of the ing genome, thus eliminating the off targets effects
associated with the existing logy (e.g., viral-mediated gene-addition). This is
a novel ch and is the first personalized gene therapy with mediated
transgene-free correction of disease causing mutation in cells, for example, human
cells. Thus, the technology can be used in cells, such as human cells, such that a
loss-of-function mutation can be seamlessly corrected with ation of normal
cellular on. In other embodiments, gene expression can be enhanced.

The expression “amino acid” as used herein is meant to include both natural
and synthetic amino acids, and both D and L amino acids. “Standard amino acid”
means any of the twenty standard o acids ly found in naturally
occurring peptides. “Nonstandard amino acid residue” means any amino acid, other
than the standard amino acids, regardless of whether it is prepared synthetically or
derived from a natural source. As used herein, “synthetic amino acid” also
encompasses chemically modified amino acids, including but not limited to salts,
amino acid derivatives (such as ), and substitutions. Amino acids contained
within the peptides of the present invention, and particularly at the carboxy- or
amino-terminus, can be modified by methylation, amidation, acetylation or
substitution with other chemical groups which can change the peptide’s circulating
half-life without adversely ing their activity. Additionally, a disulfide e
may be present or absent in the peptides of the invention.
40 The term “amino acid” is used interchangeably with “amino acid residue,”
and may refer to a free amino acid and to an amino acid residue of a peptide. It will
be apparent from the context in which the term is used whether it refers to a free
amino acid or a residue of a peptide.
Amino acids may be classified into seven groups on the basis of the side
chain R: (1) aliphatic side chains; (2) side chains containing a yl (OH) group;
(3) side chains ning sulfur atoms; (4) side chains containing an acidic or amide
group; (5) side chains containing a basic group; (6) side chains containing an
aromatic ring; and (7) proline, an imino acid in which the side chain is fused to the
amino group.
As used herein, the term “conservative amino acid substitution” is defined
herein as exchanges within one of the following five groups:
1. Small aliphatic, nonpolar or slightly polar residues:
Ala, Ser, Thr, Pro, Gly;
11. Polar, negatively charged es and their amides:
Asp, Asn, Glu, Gln;
111. Polar, positively charged es:
His, Arg, Lys;
IV. Large, tic, ar residues:
Met Leu, Ile, Val, Cys
V. Large, aromatic residues:
Phe, Tyr, Trp
As used herein, the term “nucleic acid” encompasses RNA as well as single,
double'and triple stranded DNA and cDNA. Furthermore, the terms, “nucleic acid,”
“DNA,” “RNA” and similar terms also include nucleic acid analogs, i.e. analogs
having other than a phosphodiester backbone. For example, the so called “peptide
nucleic acids,” which are known in the art and have peptide bonds instead of
phosphodiester bonds in the backbone, are considered within the scope of the
t invention. By “nucleic acid” is also meant any nucleic acid, r
composed of deoxyribonucleosides or ribonucleosides, and whether composed of
odiester linkages or modified linkages such as phosphotriester,
phosphoramidate, siloxane, carbonate, carboxymethylester, acetamidate, carbamate,
her, bridged phosphoramidate, bridged methylene phosphonate, bridged
phosphoramidate, bridged phosphoramida’te, bridged methylene phosphonate,
phosphorothioate, methylphosphonate, phosphorodithioate, bridged
phosphorothioate or sulfone es, and combinations of such linkages. The term
nucleic acid also ically includes nucleic acids composed of bases other than
the five biologically occurring bases (adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine and
uracil). Conventional notation is used herein to describe polynucleotide sequences:
the left-hand end of a single—stranded polynucleotide sequence is the 5'-end; the left-
hand direction of a double-stranded polynucleotide sequence is referred to as the 5'-
direction. The direction of 5' to 3' addition of nucleotides to nascent RNA
transcripts is referred to as the transcription direction. The DNA strand having the
same sequence as an mRNA is referred to as the “coding strand”; sequences on the
DNA strand which are located 5' to a reference point on the DNA are referred to as
“upstream ces”; sequences on the DNA strand which are 3' to a reference
point on the DNA are referred to as “downstream sequences.”
Unless otherwise specified, a “nucleotide sequence encoding an amino acid
sequence” includes all nucleotide sequences that are degenerate ns of each
other and that encode the same amino acid sequence. Nucleotide sequences that
encode proteins and RNA may include s.
“Homologous” as used , refers to the subunit sequence similarity
n two polymeric molecules, e.g., between two c acid molecules, e.g.,
two DNA molecules or two RNA molecules, or between two polypeptide molecules.
When a subunit position in both of the two molecules is occupied by the same
monomeric subunit, e.g., if a position in each of two DNA molecules is ed by
adenine, then they are homologous at that position. The homology between two
ces is a direct function of the number of matching or homologous positions,
e.g., if half (e. g., five positions in a polymer ten subunits in length) of the ons
in two compound sequences are homologous then the two sequences are 50%
homologous, if 90% of the positions, e.g., 9 of 10, are d or homologous, the
two sequences share 90% homology. By way of example, the DNA sequences
3'ATTGCC5' and 3'TATGGC share 50% homology.
As used herein, “homology” is used synonymously with “identity.”
The determination of percent identity between two nucleotide or amino acid
sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm. For example, a
mathematical algorithm useful for comparing two sequences is the algorithm of
Karlin and Altschul (1990, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 4-2268), modified as
in Karlin and Altschul (1993, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:5873-5877). This
algorithm is incorporated into the NBLAST and XBLAST programs of Altschul, et
a1. (1990, J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410), and can be accessed, for example at the
National Center for Biotechnology ation (NCBI) world wide web site.
BLAST nucleotide searches can be performed with the NBLAST m
(designated “blastn” at the NCBI web site), using, for example, the ing
parameters: gap penalty = 5; gap extension penalty = 2; ch penalty = 3;
match reward = 1; expectation value 10.0; and word size = 11 to obtain nucleotide
sequences homologous to a nucleic acid described herein. BLAST protein searches
can be performed with the XBLAST program (designated “blastn” at the NCBI web
site) or the NCBI “blastp” program, using the following parameters: expectation
value 10.0, BLOSUM62 scoring matrix to obtain amino acid sequences gous
to a protein molecule described herein. To obtain gapped alignments for ison
purposes, Gapped BLAST can be utilized as described in Altschul et a1. (1997,
Nucleic Acids Res. 25:3389-3402). atively, PSI-Blast or PHI-Blast can be
used to perform an iterated search which s distant relationships between
molecules (Id.) and relationships between molecules which share a common pattern.
When utilizing BLAST, Gapped BLAST, PSI-Blast, and ast programs, the
default parameters of the respective programs (e. g., XBLAST and NBLAST) can be
used.
The percent identity between two sequences can be determined using
techniques r to those described above, with or without allowing gaps. In
calculating percent identity, typically exact matches are d.
The terms "comprises," ”comprising," and the like can have the meaning
ascribed to them in US Patent Law and can mean "includes," "including" and the
like. As used herein, "including" or "includes" or the like means including, without
limitation.
TALENS
Transcription Activator—Like or Nucleases (TALENs) are artificial
restriction enzymes generated by fusing the TAL effector DNA binding domain to a
DNA cleavage domain. These reagents enable efficient, programmable, and specific
DNA cleavage and represent powerful tools for genome editing in situ. Transcription
activator-like effectors (TALES) can be y engineered to bind practically any
DNA sequence. The term TALEN, as used herein, is broad and includes a
monomeric TALEN that can cleave double stranded DNA without assistance from
another TALEN. The term TALEN is also used to refer to one or both members of a
pair of TALENs that are engineered to work er to cleave DNA at the same site.
TALENS that work together may be referred to as a left—TALEN and a right-TALEN,
which references the handedness of DNA. See USSN 12/965,590; USSN
13/426,991 (US 8,450,471); USSN 13/427,040 (US 8,440,431); USSN ,137
(US 8, 440,432); and USSN 13/738,381, all of which are incorporated by reference
herein in their entirety.
TAL effectors are proteins secreted by Xanthomonas ia. The DNA
g domain contains a highly conserved 33-34 amino acid sequence with the
exception of the 12th and 13th amino acids. These two locations are highly variable
(Repeat Variable Diresidue (RVD)) and show a strong ation with ic
nucleotide recognition. This simple relationship between amino acid sequence and
DNA recognition has allowed for the engineering of specific DNA binding domains
by selecting a combination of repeat segments containing the appropriate RVDs.
The non-specific DNA cleavage domain from the end of the FokI
endonuclease can be used to construct hybrid nucleases that are active in a yeast
assay, These reagents are also active in plant cells and in animal cells. Initial TALEN
studies used the wild-type FokI ge domain, but some subsequent TALEN
studies also used FokI cleavage domain variants with mutations designed to improve
cleavage specificity and cleavage activity. The FokI domain ons as a dimer,
requiring two constructs with unique DNA binding domains for sites in the target
genome with proper orientation and spacing. Both the number of amino acid
25_ residues between the TALEN DNA binding domain and the FokI cleavage domain
and the number of bases between the two individual TALEN binding sites are
ters for achieving high levels of activity. The number of amino acid residues
between the TALEN DNA binding domain and the Fold cleavage domain may be
modified by introduction of a spacer (distinct from the spacer sequence) n the
plurality of TAL effector repeat ces and the Fokl endonuclease domain. The
spacer sequence may be 12 to 30 tides.
The relationship between amino acid sequence and DNA recognition of the
TALEN binding domain allows for designable proteins. In this case artificial gene
synthesis is problematic because of improper annealing of the repetitive sequence
found in the TALE binding domain. One solution to this is to use a publicly
available software program rks) to calculate oligonucleotides suitable for
assembly in a two step PCR; oligonucleotide assembly followed by whole gene
amplification. A number of modular assembly schemes for ting engineered
TALE constructs have also been ed. Both methods offer a systematic approach
to engineering DNA binding domains that is conceptually similar to the modular
assembly method for generating zinc finger DNA recognition domains.
Once the TALEN genes have been assembled they are inserted into plasmids;
the plasmids are then used to transfect the target cell where the gene products are
expressed and enter the nucleus to access the genome. TALENs can be used to edit
s by inducing double-strand breaks (DSB), which cells d to with
repair mechanisms. In this manner, they can be used to correct mutations in the
genome which, for example, cause disease.
Vectors and Nucleic Acids
A variety of c acids may be introduced into cells to obtain sion
of a gene. As used , the term nucleic acid includes DNA, RNA, and nucleic
acid analogs, and nucleic acids that are double—stranded or single—stranded (i.e., a
sense or an nse single strand). Nucleic acid analogs can be modified at the base
moiety, sugar moiety, or phosphate backbone to improve, for e, stability,
hybridization, or solubility of the nucleic acid. Modifications at the base moiety
include deoxyuridine for deoxythymidine, and 5-methy1-2'-deoxycytidine and 5-
bromo-2'-doxycytidine for deoxycytidine. cations of the sugar moiety include
modification of the 2' hydroxyl of the ribose sugar to form 2'~O-methyl or 2'-O-allyl
sugars. The deoxyribose phosphate backbone can be modified to produce
lino nucleic acids, in which each base moiety is linked to a six membered,
morpholino ring, or peptide nucleic acids, in which the deoxyphosphate backbone is
replaced by a pseudopeptide backbone and the four bases are retained. See,
Summerton and Weller (1997) Antisense Nucleic Acid Drug Dev. 7(3):187; and
Hyrup et al. (1996). an. Med. Chem. 4:5. In addition, the deoxyphosphate
backbone can be replaced with, for example, a phosphorothioate or
phosphorodithioate backbone, a oroamidite, or an alkyl phosphotriester
backbone.
Nucleic acid sequences can be operably linked to a regulatory region such as
a promoter. Regulatory regions can be from any species. As used herein, operably
linked refers to positioning of a regulatory region relative to a nucleic acid sequence
in such a way as to permit or tate transcription of the target nucleic acid. Any
type of promoter can be operably linked to a nucleic acid ce. Examples of
promoters e, without tion, tissue-specific promoters, constitutive
promoters, and ers responsive or unresponsive to a particular stimulus (e.g.,
inducible promoters).
Additional regulatory regions that may be useful in nucleic acid constructs,
include, but are not limited to, polyadenylation sequences, ation control
sequences (e.g., an internal ribosome entry segment, IRES), ers, inducible
elements, or introns. Such regulatory regions may not be necessary, although they
may increase expression by affecting transcription, stability of the mRNA,
translational efficiency, or the like. Such tory regions can be included in a
nucleic acid construct as desired to obtain optimal expression of the nucleic acids in
the cell(s). Sufficient expression, however, can sometimes be obtained without such
onal elements.
A nucleic acid construct may be used that encodes signal peptides or
selectable markers. Signal peptides can be used such that an d polypeptide is
directed to a particular cellular location (e.g., the cell e). Non-limiting
examples of selectable markers include puromycin, ganciclovir, adenosine
deaminase (ADA), aminoglycoside phosphotransferase (neo, G418, APH),
dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), hygromycin-B-phosphtransferase, thymidine
kinase (TK), and xanthin-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (XGPRT). Such
markers are useful for selecting stable transformants in e. Other selectable
markers include fluorescent polypeptides, such as green fluorescent protein or
yellow fluorescent n.
Nucleic acid constructs can be introduced into cells of any type using a
variety of techniques. Non-limiting examples of techniques include the use of
transposon systems, recombinant viruses that can infect cells, or liposomes or other
non-viral s such as electroporation, microinjection, or calcium phosphate
precipitation, that are capable of delivering c acids to cells.
Nucleic acids can be incorporated into vectors. A vector is a broad term that
es any specific DNA t that is designed to move from a carrier into a
target DNA. A vector may be referred to as an expression vector, or a vector system,
which is a set of components needed to bring about DNA insertion into a genome or
other targeted DNA sequence such as an episome, plasmid, or even phage
DNA segment. Vectors most often n one or more expression cassettes that
se one or more expression control sequences, wherein an expression l
sequence is a DNA sequence that controls and regulates the transcription and/or
translation of another DNA sequence or mRNA, respectively.
Many different types of vectors are known. For example, plasmids and viral
vectors, e.g., retroviral vectors, are known. Mammalian expression plasmids
typically have an origin of replication, a suitable promoter and optional enhancer,
and also any necessary ribosome binding sites, a polyadenylation site, splice donor
and acceptor sites, transcriptional termination sequences, and 5' flanking non-
transcribed sequences. Examples of vectors include: plasmids (which may also be a
carrier of another type of vector), irus, adeno—associated virus (AAV),
lentivirus (e.g., modified HIV-l, SIV or FIV), retrovirus (e.g., ASV, ALV or
MoMLV), and osons (e.g., Sleeping Beauty, P-elements, Tol-2, Frog Prince,
piggyBaC).
Therapeutic Uses
TALEN-based gene correction has many clinical and preclinical (e.g.,
research) applications. For example, TALEN-based gene correction can used to
correct genes in which mutations lead to disease. For example, any disease
characterized by small base tions including insertions and deletions such as,
but not restricted to, epidermolysis bullosa, osteogenesis ecta, dyskeratosis
congenital, the mucopolysaccharidoses, muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis (CFTR),
fanconi anemia, the sphingolipidoses, the lipofuscinoses,, adrenoleukodystrophy,
severe combined immunodeficiency, sickle-cell anemia, semia, and the like.
In one embodiment, the disease is molysis Bullosa. Recessive
dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is characterized by a onal deficit of
the type VII collagen protein due to gene defects in the type VII collagen (COL7A1)
gene. This gene encodes the alpha chain of type VII collagen. The type VII collagen
fibril, composed of three cal alpha collagen chains, is restricted to the
basement zone beneath stratified squamous epithelia. It functions as an anchoring
fibril between the external epithelia and the underlying . Mutations in this
gene are associated with all forms of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
COL7A1 is located on the short arm of human chromosome 3, in the
chromosomal region denoted 3p21.31 (Ensembl No: ENSG00000114270). The gene
is approximately 31,000 base pairs in size and its coding sequence is nted
into 118 exons, see SEQ ID NO: 32.
COL7A1 is transcribed into an mRNA of 9,287 base pairs (Accession Nos.
for human mRNA and protein are NM_000094 and NP_000085, respectively). In
the skin, the type VII collagen protein is synthesized by keratinocytes and dermal
fibroblasts. The symbol for the orthologous gene in the mouse is Col7a1 (Accession
No for Mouse mRNA and protein are NM_00738 and NP_031764, respectively).
People with RDEB exhibit incurable, often fatal skin blistering and are at
increased risk for aggressive squamous cell carcinomal. Gene tation
therapies are ing, but run the risk of insertional mutagenesis. It is therefore
described herein engineered transcription activator like or nucleases (TALENs)
for precision genome-editing in cells of patients with RDEB. It is described herein
the ability of TALENs to induce site—specific double-stranded DNA breaks (DSB)
leading to gy~directed repair (HDR) from an exogenous donor te. This
s resulted in COL7A1 gene mutation correction and restoration of normal
gene and protein expression. This study provides proof-of-concept for personalized
genomic medicine and is the first TALEN-mediated in situ correction of an
endogenous human gene in fibroblasts.
Cells to be modified by TALEN-based gene correction can be obtained from
the patient or from a donor. The cells can be of any type, such as fibroblast cells,
keratinocytes, inducible pluripotent-, hematopoietic—, mesenchymal—, and embryonic
stem cells, hematopoietic progeny cells, such as T—cells, s, glia and neurons,
lial progenitor and stem cells, muscle cells, lung cells, pancreatic and liver
cells and/or cells of the reticular endothelial system). Once modified by TALEN-
based gene correction, the cells can be expanded and/or administered to a patient to
treat the disease.
Matrices can be used to deliver cells of the present invention to specific
anatomic sites, where ular growth factors may or may not be incorporated into
the , or encoded on plasmids incorporated into the matrix for uptake by the
cells, can be used to direct the growth of the initial cell population. d DNA
encoding cytokines, growth factors, or hormones can be d within a r
gene~activated matrix carrier. The radable polymer is then implanted near the
site where ent is desired.
For the purposes described herein, either autologous, allogeneic or xeongenic
cells of the present invention can be administered to a patient by direct injection to a
preselected site, systemically, on or around the surface of an acceptable matrix, or in
combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Additionally, nucleic acid constructs or proteins can be injected locally or
systemically into a subject, with, for example, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
/Expansion of Cells
Cells to be d by TALEN-based gene correction can be ed from
the patient or from a donor. The cells can be of any type, such as fibroblast cells.
Once modified by TALEN—based gene correction, the cells can be expanded and/or
administered to a patient to treat the disease.
The cells can be cultured in culture medium that is established in the art and
commercially available from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC),
Invitrogen and other companies. Such media include, but are not d to,
Dulbecco’s d Eagle’s Medium (DMEM), DMEM F12 medium, Eagle’s
Minimum Essential Medium, F-12K medium, Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s
Medium, Knockout D-MEM, or RPMI-l640 medium. It is within the skill of one in
the art to modify or modulate concentrations of media and/or media supplements as
needed for the cells used. It will also be apparent that many media are ble as
low—glucose formulations, with or without sodium pyruvate.
Also contemplated is mentation of cell culture medium with
mammalian sera. Sera often contain cellular factors and components that are needed
for viability and expansion. Examples of sera include fetal bovine serum (FBS),
bovine serum (BS), calf serum (CS), fetal calf serum (FCS), newborn calf serum
(NCS), goat serum (GS), horse serum (HS), human serum, chicken serum, porcine
serum, sheep serum, rabbit serum, rat serum (RS), serum replacements ding,
but not limited to, KnockOut Serum Replacement (KSR, Invitrogen)), and bovine
embryonic fluid. It is understood that sera can be heat-inactivated at 55—65°C if
deemed needed to inactivate components of the complement cascade. Modulation
of serum concentrations, or withdrawal of serum from the culture medium can also
be used to promote survival of one or more desired cell types. In one embodiment,
the cells are cultured in the presence of PBS /or serum specific for the-species cell
type. For example, cells can be isolated and/or expanded with total serum (e.g.,
FBS) or serum replacement concentrations of about 0.5% to about 5% or greater
including about 5% to about 15% or greater, such as about 20%, about 25% or about
%. Concentrations of serum can be determined empirically.
Additional supplements can also be used to supply the cells with trace
elements for optimal growth and expansion. Such supplements include insulin,
transferrin, sodium selenium, and combinations thereof. These components can be
included in a salt solution such as, but not limited to, Hanks’ Balanced Salt
SolutionTM (HBSS), Earle’s Salt SolutionTM, idant supplements, MCDB-ZOlTM
supplements, phosphate buffered saline (PBS), N—2—hydroxyethylpiperazine-N’—
ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), namide, ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid
phosphate, as well as additional amino acids. Many cell culture media already
contain amino acids; however some require supplementation prior to culturing cells.
Such amino acids include, but are not limited to, ine, L—arginine, L—aspartic
acid, L—asparagine, L-cysteine, L-cystine, L-glutamic acid, L—glutamine, L-glycine,
L-histidine, L-inositol, L—isoleucine, L—leucine, L-lysine, L-methionine, L—
phenylalanine, L—proline, L-serine, L-threonine, L—tryptophan, L-tyrosine, and L—
valine.
Antibiotics are also typically used in cell culture to te bacterial,
mycoplasmal, and fungal contamination. Typically, antibiotics or anti-mycotic
compounds used are mixtures of penicillin/streptomycin, but can also include, but
are not d to, ericin (FungizoneTM), llin, icin, bleomycin,
hygromycin, kanamycin, mitomycin, mycophenolic acid, xic acid, neomycin,
nystatin, paromomycin, polymyxin, cin, rifampicin, spectinomycin,
tetracycline, tylosin, and .
es can also be advantageously used in cell culture and include, but
are not limited to, D-aldosterone, diethylstilbestrol (DES), dexamethasone, 8-
iol, hydrocortisone, insulin, prolactin, progesterone, somatostatin/human
growth hormone (HGH), thyrotropin, thyroxine, and L—thyronine. B -
mercaptoethanol can also be supplemented in cell culture media.
Lipids and lipid rs can also be used to supplement cell e media,
depending on the type of cell and the fate of the differentiated cell. Such lipids and
carriers can include, but are not limited to extrin (a , B , y ), cholesterol,
ic acid conjugated to albumin, linoleic acid and oleic acid conjugated to
n, unconjugated linoleic acid, linoleic-oleic-arachidonic acid conjugated to
albumin, oleic acid unconjugated and conjugated to albumin, among others.
Albumin can similarly be used in fatty-acid free formulation.
Cells in culture can be maintained either in suspension or attached to a solid
support, such as extracellular matrix components and synthetic or ymers.
Cells often require additional factors that encourage their attachment to a solid
support (e.g., attachment factors) such as type I, type II, and type IV collagen,
concanavalin A, chondroitin sulfate, fibronectin, “superfibronectin” and/or
fibronectin-like polymers, gelatin, laminin, poly-D and poly-L—lysine, MatrigelTM,
thrombospondin, and/or vitronectin.
Cells can be cultured at different densities, e.g., cells can be seeded or
maintained in the e dish at different densities. For example, at densities,
ing, but not limited to, densities of less than about 2000 cells/well of a 12-well
plate (for example, 12—well flat-bottom growth area: 3.8cm2 well volume: 6.0 ml or
well ID x depth (mm) 22.1x17.5; well ty (ml) 6.5, growth area (cm2) 3.8),
including less than about 1500 cells/well of a 12—well plate, less than about 1,000
cells/well of a 12—well plate, less than about 500 cells/well of a 12-well plate, or less
than about 200 cells/well of a l plate. The cells can also be seeded or
maintained at higher densities, for example, great than about 2,000 cells/well of a
12-well plate, greater than about 2,500 cells/well of a 12-well plate, greater than
about 3,000 cells/well of a 12-well plate, greater than about 3,500 cells/well of a 12—
well plate, greater than about 4,000 cells/well of a l plate, greater than about
4,500 cells/well of a 12—well plate, greater than about 5,000 cells/well of a 12-well
plate, greater than about 5,500 cells/well of a 12-well plate, greater than about 6,000
cells/well of a 12—well plate, greater than about 6,500 cells/well of a 12—well plate,
' greater than about 7,000 cells/well of a 12-well plate, r than about 7,500
cells/well of a 12-well plate or greater than about 8,000 cells/well of a 12—well plate.

Materials and Methods.
Research subject and cell line derivation.
After obtaining informed parental consent we obtained a punch biopsy from
the skin of a male RDEB patient with a homozygous c.1837 C>T premature
ation codon mutation. Approval for research on human subjects was ed
from the University of Minnesota Institutional Review Board. A primary fibroblast
cell line was derived and maintained in low oxygen concentration conditions.

Gene transfer.
All TALEN treatments consisted of delivery of 2.5 ug of each TALEN and
ug amount of donor via the Neon Transfection System (Life es) with the
following instrument settings: 1500 V, 20ms pulse width, and a single pulse. For 48
hours post gene transfer the cells were incubated at 31 C[5].
Cell Culture.
Cells were maintained in growth media comprised of DMEM supplemented
with 20 % FBS, 100 U/mL nonessential amino acids, and 0.1 mg/ml each of
penicillin and streptomycin, respectively (Invitrogen) and cultured at 2% 02, 5%
C02~ and 37 C.
Surveyor nuclease.
Genomic DNA was isolated 48 hours post TALEN gene transfer and
amplified for 30 cycles with Surveyor F and Surveyor R primers and subjected to
Surveyor nuclease ent as described [6]. Products were resolved on a 10%
TBE PAGE gel (Invitrogen). For off target amplicons the PCR reaction proceeded
for 35 cycles and all primers are listed in Table 1.
Homology directed repair analysis.
For quantification of HDR, TALENS and 5 pl of a 40 uM single stranded
ucleotide donor were transfected into cells and screened by PCR at 48 hours
using three primers: Surveyor F, Surveyor R, and linker forward primers.
Densitometry was performed as described [6]. For gene correction, 10 ug of the
donor plasmid was introduced along with the 2.5 ug each of TALEN DNA and
selection was performed as described subsequently.
Selection.
Cells were selected in bulk in 0.2 ug/mL puromycin, segregated into sub-
pools, screened for HDR, and then plated at low density 50 total cells) in a 10
cm2 dish. A cloning disk with silicone grease (all from Corning) was placed over
single cells in the ce of base media supplemented with 10 ng/mL epidermal
growth factor and 0.5 ng/mL fibroblast growth factor. Cells were ed to
sequentially larger vessels. An adenoviral cre recombinase was added at an MOI of
to remove the PGK cin cassette (Vector BioLabs).
Cell correction molecular ing.
C7GTl and C7GT2 primer pairs were employed to amplify a on from
the donor into the endogenous locus (upstream SPMP screening). The ApaI SPMP
region was assessed on genomic DNA treated with Apal pre- and post- PCR
2014/019322
amplification with C7APAF and C7GT2. Messenger RNA from clonal isolates was
converted to cDNA and screened with RTl and RT2 and then digested with Apal.
ApaI-resistant amplicons were cloned and Sanger sequenced.
Cell ion Analysis.
Gene corrected fibroblasts were expanded in T150 flasks and nized to
obtain single cell suspensions. Cells were then resuspended in 100ul PBS + 0.5%
BSA + propidium iodide (eBiosciences), followed by addition of an equal volume of
PKHZ6 reference microbeads (SIGMA). Five thousand bead events were collected
and absolute viable cell number was calculated as per manufacturer protocol
(SIGMA).
iPSC Generation and ma assay.
Gene corrected fibroblasts (or un-corrected cells as a control) were
rammed to iPSCs as bed [7, 8] and then placed in the flank of a SCID
mouse until a visible mass formed. The mass was excised for embedding and
staining.
Immunofluorescence.
Gene corrected cells were plated on a chamber slide and were fixed 24 hours
later with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.2% Triton X, blocked with
1% BSA and stained with a onal ype VII collagen antibody (121500;
generously provided by Drs David Woodley and Mei Chen). Secondary antibody
staining was performed with donkey abbit IgG Cy3 (1:500; Jackson
Immunoresearch). Isotype control staining was done using whole molecule rabbit
IgG (Jackson Immunoresearch). Nuclei were stained with 4’, 6—diamidino
phenylindole (Vector tories). Images were taken using a PMT voltage of 745
on an Olympus BX61 FV500 confocal microscope (Olympus Optical Co LTD) and
analyzed using the Fluoview software version 4.3. Light microscopy was performed
on a Leica microscope.
IDLV and LAM-PCR/anAM PCR.
Integrase—defective lentiviral (IDLV) particles were produced in 293T cells
via lipid based co-transfection (Lipofectamine 2000, Invitrogen) of the CMV—GFP
transfer vector, the R8.2 packaging plasmid harboring the D64V( integrase
mutation [9, 10], and the pMD2.VSV—G envelope-encoding plasmid. Gene tagging
was performed by nucleofection of HEK 293 cells with the TALENs followed 24
hours later by a transduction of GFP IDLV at an MOI of 7. 100mg of c DNA
was ed in duplicate by LAM-PCR [11] using enzymes MseI and Tsp509I and
anAM—PCR [12] to ensure genome—wide recovery of IDLV integration sites.
(nr)LAM-PCR amplicons were sequenced by the Roche/454 pyrosequencing
platform and integration site data were analyzed using the HISAP pipeline [13,
14],[15]. Genomic on harboring >1 IS in close ce were scanned for
potential TALEN off-target binding sites using the pattern matcher scan-for—matches
Results/Discussion
Lack of type VII collagen protein at the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ)
results in loss of the structural integrity of the skin. Restoration of deposition of the
type VII collagen at the DEJ by allogeneic systemic hematopoietic cell or localized
fibroblast lantation can alleviate symptoms [16-18]. However, suboptimal
efficacy of allogeneic cell transplantation due to risks of toxicity, infection, and graft
failure provides s to develop new autologous cell-based ies. Therefore,
a genome-editing strategy for COL7A1 tion based on TALEN technology is
described herein. Fibroblasts are an ideal cell type due to their ease of derivation and
low susceptibility to growth arrest in culture as well as their ability to deposit type
VII collagen at the DEJ [18, 19]. TALENs are engineered nucleases that can induce
a double-stranded DNA break at a user-defined genomic locus, thus stimulating
HDR, and are superior to other ses in their targeting capacity and ease of
generation [20, 21].
The TAL Effector-Nucleotide Targeter software [22, 23]identified 68
potential TALEN sites for the human COL7A1 locus and t recent
experimental data on a large series of human genes [21] ize the high
targeting capacity for TALENs, a consideration for RDEB and other diseases that
exhibit geneity in the location and number of mutated sequences. The Golden
Gate g methodology was used to generate a patient-specific nuclease proximal
to a premature termination codon in exon 14 of the COL7A1 gene (Fig. 1A). A
TALEN is composed of an engineered TALE repeat array fused to the FokI nuclease
domain (Fig. 1B); the binding specificities of TALE repeats in the array are dictated
by the identities of two hypervariable residues within each repeat (Fig. 1C). TALEN-
treated RDEB fibroblasts were analyzed for evidence of repair by the two major
DNA repair pathways: error—prone non-homologous ining (NHEJ) and HDR.
Surveyor nuclease assay and Sanger sequencing that showed 11 mutated alleles out
of 75 total analyzed were consistent with NHEJ (Figs. 2A and 2E). TALEN cleavage
also resulted in the e of an oligonucleotide duplex at the DNA break site (Figs.
2B-F)[24]. These data established that the nuclease is active at the target site. It was
next ascertained whether RDEB cells could undergo HDR following co-delivery of
TALENs and an oligonucleotide donor (ODN) containing a unique primer sequence
flanked by short donor arms (Fig. 1F). RDEB fibroblasts transfected with TALEN
plasmids and the ODN were then analyzed with a three-primer PCR approach that
simultaneously s the modified and unmodified alleles. This assay showed that
TALENs in RDEB cells can stimulate HDR to incorporate an exogenous sequence
from the ODN donor (Fig. 1G) and the 14.6% rate of NHEJ and 2.1% rate of HDR
show the efficacy of TALEN use for high-level modification of human fibroblasts.
To determine whether a COL7A1 mutation causing RDEB could be
corrected and a population of genetically corrected cells subsequently ed, an
exogenous donor plasmid was ted that would allow for selective ion and
expansion of gene-corrected cells. This donor consisted of homology arms that
spanned ~l kb of the COL7A1 locus between exons 12 and 16 (Fig. 3A). Within the
donor was a floxed-PGK-puromycin cassette oriented so that it would be inserted
into the intron between exons l2 and 13. The flanking loxP sites allow for removal
of the selectable marker with Cre recombinase, leaving a small loxP “footprint” in
the intron (Fig. 4). Within the right donor arm, five single base pair alterations were
engineered: the normal base at the site of the mutation that restores a normal
genotype and four silent point mutation polymorphisms (SPMPs) that allowed for
delineation of HDR—modified alleles versus fied ones (Fig. 3A). Three of
these SPMPs are am of the target base and the one downstream removes an
ApaI restriction site (alterations ter ed to as upstream or downstream
SPMPs).
Of the nine clones analyzed, four were obtained that showed evidence of
HDR. In one clone, the presence of the upstream SPMPs was evident; r, the
RDEB-pathogenic COL7A1 mutation persisted and the downstream SPMP was not
found (Fig. 5). These data suggest that an HDR crossover event occurred within the
donor arm upstream of the region that restores a normal genotype (Fig. 6). For the
remaining three clones, however, the downstream donor-inserted SPMP was
detectable, indicating that one allele underwent HDR and the other did not, resulting
in a heterozygous COL7A1 locus (Figs. 3B and 3C).
HDR should revert the mutant base and restore normal gene expression.
Accordingly, this was ed with an RT-PCR strategy for the detection of the
normal base and the downstream SPMPS in the same transcript ing splicing
out of the intervening intron (Fig. 7). Interestingly, direct sequencing of the cDNA in
one clone showed a deletion of sequences at the TALEN target site (Fig. 8). These
data indicate that the TALEN was active after HDR and induced an additional
NHEJ—mediated mutation. Previous studies with zinc finger endonucleases (ZFNs)
show that silent mutations in the donor sequence can reduce the frequency of this
undesired event”; however, this was not possible in this experiment e the
TALEN site was at an intron/exon boundary and it was opted to leave the donor
TALEN sequence unperturbed so as not to t splicing. This negatively impacted
the recovery of one clone; however, two clones ted the desired HDR~based,
donor—derived, normal transcripts (Fig. 9A). It was next ascertained whether TALEN
ent restored type VII collagen protein sion ed to untreated
RDEB mutant or wild-type cells g abnormal or normal transcripts,
respectively (Figs. 9C and 9E). Immunofluorescence-based detection of type VII
collagen revealed a rescue of type VII collagen production in TALEN—treated cells
and a complete absence in untreated control RDEB fibroblasts (Figs. 9B and 9D).
These results confirm the ability of TALENs to e a genetic modification at a
disease-specific target site with restoration of normal mRNA and protein production.
The risk of off-target effects is a eration in the clinical use of genome—
editing reagents. Options for mapping off-target sites of gene-editing nucleases
include: (i) performing in vitro Systematic ion of Ligands by Exponential
Enrichment (SELEX) with monomeric DNA-binding proteins of each nuclease in a
pair and then using this data to predict potential off target 25], (ii) performing
an in vitro cleavage site selection using dimeric nucleases and then interrogating
sites from this selection that occur in the genome of cells of interest for nuclease-
induced mutations, (iii) utilizing the propensity of an integration-defective lentivirus
(IDLV) to integrate into nuclease—induced DSBS and then identifying points of
insertion by R[9]. Although methods (ii) and (iii) appear to be better at
identifying nuclease off-target sites than method (i), the former methods fail to
identify off-target sites predicted by the other, suggesting that no method is
comprehensive in its detection of off—target events. Method (iii) was utilized with an
IDLV with green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene that can be trapped into a nuclease—
generated DSB (Fig. 11A)[9, 26]. Human embryonic kidney (293) cells were used
due to their accelerated erative capacity, which should promote rapid dilution
of non-integrated IDLV and minimize random integration. In on, it was
hypothesized that, due to the open chromatin structure of 293 cells, any off—target
effects will manifestto a greater degree than in primary cells and will allow for a
more sensitive mapping of off—target events. Introduction of the GFP IDLV alone
resulted in a rapid loss of GFP expression in 293 cells (Fig. 12). The roduction
of IDLV and TALENS resulted in a stable population of GFP cells (Fig. 11B), which
were used for mapping the ation sites with nonrestrictive linear amplification-
mediated PCR ((nr)LAM—PCR) (Fig. 11C). Five sites were recovered that showed a
junction n the IDLV and adjacent genomic sequence (Fig. 11D). These events
are not unexpected, as even nucleases used in clinical trials show off-target s
and the non-coding regions recovered t that this TALEN possesses a
safety profile that is not predicted to negatively impact gene expreSSion.
At the resolution of the LAM—PCR methodology, the TALEN described
herein shows a high rate of on—target activity. In addition, these studies, like others,
show that a potential target for ered nucleases is the donor construct itself and
they highlight the benefits of the inclusion of a marker sequence that can aid in
selection of the desired HDR event [27].
In summary, skin cells from an RDEB patient were obtained and the donor
and TALEN reagents (sequences are included below) were designed and rapidly
constructed to specifically target this unique mutation. The ation of the gene
editing tools resulted in correction of the RDEB mutation in diploid human
fibroblasts—cells that are suitable for therapeutic use after direct expansion or
ramming into pluripotency ed by expansion [7, 8] - and e the
first-ever demonstration of TALEN—mediated correction of a disease gene in the
human genome. These studies provide the proof that TALENS can be used in the
development of clinically relevant individualized therapies.
