Its mechanism of action involves blocking the protein shell (capsid) of the HIV-1 virus, disrupting multiple crucial stages of the viral lifecycle. The noteworthy candidate, EBT-101, is designed to eliminate HIV proviral DNA using CRISPR-Cas9 along with two guide RNAs (gRNAs). In November 2023, Hookipa Pharma Inc.,

Understanding Biologics: Biologics are a class of therapeutic agents derived from living organisms, such as cells, tissues, or proteins. Unlike traditional small molecule drugs, which are chemically synthesized, biologics are produced through complex biotechnological processes, often involving recombinant DNA technology.

The first approved treatment for hepatitis C was a series of protein-based injections called recombinant interferon-alfa (IFNa). Interferons are naturally occurring proteins in the body; recombinant IFNa is the protein-based drug that works to mobilize the body’s natural immune system to fight disease.

These platforms all induce double strand cuts in the chromosomal DNA that can be sealed by the cell, leading to a specific gene disruption, or resulting in a new target site for inserting DNA segments. Reduce/eliminate chromosomal disruptions caused by double-strand DNA breaks. In one example, Choi et al.

Kerstin Pohl , Senior Global Marketing Manager, Gene Therapy & Nucleic Acid at SCIEX, looks at the application of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for analysing host cell proteins. Host cell proteins (HCPs) – proteins derived from the host cells used for viral production—are one class of process-related impurities.
