AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current treatments for hemoglobinopathies, such as sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia, are inadequate in effectively increasing fetal hemoglobin expression and reducing pathogenic beta-globin production in patients.

Method used

The use of CRISPR/Cas9 systems to target and modify non-deletional HPFH regions in hematopoietic stem cells, introducing specific gRNA molecules to enhance fetal hemoglobin expression and decrease beta-globin production, with the modified cells being capable of engrafting and differentiating into erythrocytes with sustained upregulation of fetal hemoglobin and reduced pathogenic beta-globin.

Benefits of technology

The CRISPR/Cas9-modified cells demonstrate significant upregulation of fetal hemoglobin and concomitant reduction in pathogenic beta-globin, leading to improved clinical outcomes by increasing the number of normal red blood cells and reducing sickle-shaped cells in progeny.

Description

COMPOSITIONS ¥ METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF HEMOGI.OBINOPATÍAS .REFERENCE TO RELATED REQUESTS The present application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application Number 62 / 455,464, filed on . February 6, 2017, which is incorporated in its entirety by reference. LIST OF SEQUENCES This application contains a sequence listing that has been filed electronically in ASCII format and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Said ASCIl copy, created on January 30, 2018, has the name PAT057603-WO-PCT SL.txt and a size of 258,837 bytes. Background of the invention CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspersed short palindromic repeats) evolved in bacteria as a. adaptive immune system to defend against viral attack. Upon exposure to a virus, short segments of viral DNA are integrated into the crazy CRISPI! of the bacterial genome. The RNA is transcribed from a portion of the CRISPR locus that includes the viral sequence. That RNA, which contains a sequence complementary to the viral genome, mediates the targeting of a Cas9 protein to the sequence in the viral genome. The Cas9 protein cleaves and thus silences: the viral target. Recently, the CRISPR / Cas system has been adapted to genome editing in eukaryotic cells. The introduction of site-specific single-strand breaks (SSBs) or double-strand breaks (DSBs) allows for alteration of the target sequence by, for example, non-homologous end joining (Nl-ffi.l) or directed repair. by homology (HDR). SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Without being bound by theory, the invention is based in part on the discovery that CRISPR systems, eg, Cas9 CRISPR systems, eg, as described herein, can be used to modify cells (eg, stem cells). hematopoietic stem cells (HSPC)), eg, in a nondeletional HPFH region, as described herein, to increase fetal hemoglobin (HbF) expression and / or decrease beta globin expression (eg, a beta globin gene having a disease-causing mutation), for example in the progeny, eg red blood cell progeny, of the modified cells, and that the modified cells (for example, modified HSPC) can 'be used to treat hemoglobinopathies , for example, sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia. In one aspect, surprisingly, it has been shown here that the introduction of gene editing systems, eg, CRISPR systems, eg, as described herein, into cells (eg, HSPC), which target, to regions of the genome where no HPFH mutation or deletion map creates modified HSPCs (eg, HSPCs comprising one or more indels, eg, as described herein) that can efficiently engraft into an organism, persist for long term in the grafted organism and differentiate, even in erythrocytes with increased expression of fetal hemoglobin. Furthermore, these modified HSPCs are capable of being cultured ex vivo, eg, in the presence of a stem cell expander (eg, as described herein) under conditions that cause them to expand and proliferate while maintaining potency. When gene editing systems, eg, CRISP.R systems, eg, as described herein, are introduced into. HPSC derived from patients with sickle cell disease, the modified cells and their progeny (eg, cryptroid progeny) surprisingly show not only upregulation of fetal hemoglobin, but also a significant decrease in sickle cell beta-globin, and a significant decrease in the number of phallus-shaped cells and increase in the number of normal red blood cells, relative to unmodified cell populations. Thus, in one aspect, the invention provides CRISPR systems. (eg, CRISPR Cas systems, eg, CRISPR Cas systems, eg, S. pyogenes CRISPR Cas9 systems) comprising one or more, eg, one, gRNA molecule as described herein. Any of the gRNA molecules described herein can be used in such systems, and in the methods and cells described herein.

One skilled in the art will understand that any DNA, which comprises a nucleotide sequence or partial nucleotide sequence that encodes a protein that elicits an immune response, therefore encodes an "antigen" according to the present. Furthermore, one skilled in the art will understand that an antigen need not be encoded solely by a full-length nucleotide sequence of a gene. It is evident that the present invention includes, among others, the use of partial nucleotide sequences from more than one gene and that these nucleotide sequences are arranged in various combinations to encode the polypeptides that elicit the desired immune response. Furthermore, one skilled in the art will understand that an antigen need not be encoded by a "gene" in. absolute. It is apparent that an antigen may be synthesized or derived from a biological sample, or could be a macromolecule as well as a polypeptide. Such a biological sample may include, but is not limited to, a tissue sample, a cell, or a fluid with other biological components. The term "autologous" refers to any material derived from the same individual into which it will later be reintroduced. The term "allogeneic" refers to any material derived from a different animal of the same species as the individual to which the material is introduced. Two or more individuals are said to be alqogenic to each other when the genes at one or more loci are not identical. In some respects, allogeneic material from individuals of the same species may be genetically different enough to interact antigenically. The term "xenogeneic" refers to a graft derived from an animal of a different species. "Derived from" hereby denotes a relationship between a first and a second molecule. It generally refers to the structural similarity between the first molecule and a second molecule and does not connote or include a process, or source limitation, in a first molecule that is derived from a second molecule. The term "coding" refers to the inherent property of specific nucleotide sequences in a polynucleotide, such as a gene, cDNA, or mRNA, to serve as templates for the synthesis of other polymers and macromolecules in biological processes that have a defined sequence of nucleotides (eg, rRNA, tRNA, and mRNA) or a defined sequence of amino acids, and the resulting biological properties thereof. Thus, a gene, cDNA, or RNA encodes a protein if transcription and translation of the mRNA corresponding to that gene produces the protein in a cell or other biological system. Both the. coding strand, whose nucleotide sequence is identical to the mRNA sequence and is usually given in sequence listings, like the non-coding strand, used as a template for transcription of a gene or cDNA, may be referred to as protein coding or .other product of that gene or cDNA.

Numerous vectors are known in the art including, but not limited to, linear polynucleotides, polynucleotides associated with ionic or amphiphilic compounds, plasmids, and viruses. Therefore, the term "transfer vector" includes a plasmid or a. autonomously replicating virus. The term should also be interpreted as further including non-plasmid and non-viral compounds that facilitate the transfer of nucleic acid into cells, such as, for example, a polymer compound, liposome, and the like.

Expression vectors include all those known in the art, including cosmids, plasmids (eg, naked or contained in liposomes) and viruses (eg, lentiviruses, retroviruses, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses) incorporating the recombinant polynucleotide. The term "homologous" or "identity" refers to the subunit sequence identity between two polymeric molecules, for example, between two nucleic acid molecules, such as two DNA molecules or two RNA molecules, or between two molecules of polypeptides, When a subunit position in the two molecules is occupied by the same monomeric subunit; for example, if a position in each of the two DNA molecules is occupied by adenine, then they are homologous or identical at that position. The homology between two sequences is a direct function of the number of coincident or homologous positions; for example, if half (eg, five positions in a ten-subunit-long polymer) of the positions in two sequences are homologous, the two sequences are 50% homologous; if 90% of the positions (eg 9 out of 10) are coincident or homologous, the two sequences are 90% homologous. The term "isolated" means altered or removed from the natural state. For example, a nucleic acid or peptide naturally present in a living animal is not "isolated", but the same nucleic acid or peptide partially or completely separated from existing materials in its natural state is "isolated".

The term "operably linked" or "transcriptional control" refers to the functional link between a regulatory sequence and a heterologous nucleic acid sequence that results in expression of the latter. For example, a first nucleic acid sequence is operably linked to a second nucleic acid sequence when the first nucleic acid sequence is placed into a functional relationship with the second •nucleic acid sequence-. For example, a promoter is operably linked to a coding sequence if the promoter affects the transcription or expression of the coding sequence. Operably linked DNA sequences may be contiguous with each other and, for example, where it is necessary to join two protein coding regions, they are in the same reading frame. The term "parenteral" administration of an immunogenic composition includes, for example, subcutaneous (s.c.), intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) or intrastemal, intratümóra injection techniques. or infusion.

In accordance with the present gn-relationship to a messenger RNA (mRNA), a 5' cap (also called a RNA cap, a 7-methylguanosine RNA cap, or an m7G N.RNA cap) is a modified guanine nucleotide that has been added to the "-front" or 5' end of a messenger RNA encanoles shortly after the start of transcription. The 5'-cap consists of a terminal group that is attached to the first transcribed nucleotide. Their presence is critical for recognition by the ri'bosomay and protection against RNases. Capping is coupled to transcription and occurs co-transcriptionally, so that each influences the other. Shortly after the start of transcription, the 5' end of the mRNA being synthesized is bound by a cap synthesis complex associated with RNA polymerase. This enzyme complex catalyzes the chemical reactions that are required for the. formation of the mRNA cap. The synthesis proceeds as a multi-step biochemical reaction. The rest of the cap can be modified to modulate the functionality of the. mRNA such as its-stability or translation efficiency.

As used herein, "polyadenylation" refers to the eovalent linkage of a polyadenyl moiety, or its modified variant, to a messenger RNA' molecule. In eukaryotic organisms, most messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules are polyadenylated at the 3' end. The 3' poly(A) tail is a long sequence of adenine nucleotides (often several hundred) added to the pro-mRNA by the action of an enzyme, polyadenium polymerase. In higher eukaryotes, the poly(A) tail attaches to transcripts that contain a specific sequence, the polyadenylation signal. The poly(A) tail and the protein attached to it help protect the mRNA from degradation by exonucleases. Polyadenylation is also important for transcription termination, mRNA export from the nucleus, and translation. Polyadenylation occurs in the nucleus immediately after transcription of DNA to RNA, but it can also occur later in the cytoplasm. After transcription is complete, the mRNA strand is cleaved through the action of an .endonuclease complex associated with RNA polymerase. The cleavage site is generally characterized by the presence of the base sequence AAUAAA near the cleavage site. After the mRNA has been cleaved, adenosine residues are added to the free T-terminus. the cleavage site.

"Expansion" or "Expand1' in the context of cells refers to an increase in the number of a characteristic cell type, or cell types, from an initial population of cells, which may or may not be identical. The initial cells used for the expansion may not be the same as the cells generated from the expansion."Cell population" refers to mammalian, preferably human, sukary cells isolated from biological sources, eg, blood or tissue products and derived from more than one cell "Enriched" when used in the context of cell population refers to a population of cells selected based on the presence, of one or more markers, eg, C.D34+. The term "CD34+ cells" refers to cells that express the CD34 marker on their surface. CD34+ cells can be detected and counted using, for example, flow cytometry and fluorescently labeled anti-CD34 antibodies. "Enriched for CD34+ cells" means that a population of cells has been selected based on the presence of the CD34 marker.

The domains are briefly discussed below: 1) Addressing Domain: Guidance on Selecting Address Domains can be found, for example, in Fu Yei al. NAT 8IOTECHNOL 2014 (doi: 10.1038 / nbt.2808) and Sternberg SH el al. NATURE 2014 (doi: 10.1038 / natUrel3011). The targeting domain - comprises a nucleotide sequence - that is complementary, eg, at least 80,85,90,95, or 99% complementary, eg, fully complementary, to the. target sequence in the target nucleic acid. The targeting domain is part of an RNA molecule and will therefore comprise the base uracil (U), while the DNA encoding the gRNA molecule will comprise the base thymine (T). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the complementarity of the targeting domain with the target sequence contributes to the specificity of the interaction of the gRNA molecule / Cas9 molecule complex with a target nucleic acid.

Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 nucleic acids of the targeting domain arranged at the 3' end of the targeting domain are important for target sequence targeting and thus , may be called the "core" region of the addressing domain.

Methods for designing gRNAs Methods for designing gRNA are described herein, including methods for selecting, designing, and validating target sequences. Examples of addressing domains are also provided in this document. The targeting domains described herein can be incorporated into the gRNAs described herein. Methods for selection and validation of target sequences as well as analysis of unwanted sequences are described, for example, in, Mali el ai., 2013 SCIENCE 339(6121): 823-826; Hsu et al, 2013 NAT BIOTECHNOL, 31(9):827-32; Fu et. al, 2014 NAT BIOTECHNOL, doi: 10.1038 / nbt,2808.

For example, you can use a software tool to optimize it. choice of gRNA within the user tm target sequence, eg, to minimize total Riera activity of the target throughout the genome. The Riera activity of the target may be other than cleavage. For each possible choice: from gRN A, for example, using Cas9 from S. pyogenes, the tool can identify all sequences, outside of the . target (for example, preceding PAMS NAM or NGG) throughout the genome containing up to a certain number (for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10) of base pairs not comeident.es. The cleavage efficiency at each target Riera sequence can be predicted, for example, using an experimentally derived weighting scheme. Each putative gRNA is classified according to its expected total off-target cleavage; the highest ranked gRNAs represent those likely to have the most on-target cleavage and the least off-target cleavage. Other features, e.g. automated reagent design for CRISPR construct, primer design for on-target Surveyor assay, and primer design for high-throughput detection and quantification of off-target cleavage via next-generation sequencing , can also be included in the tool. Candidate gRNA molecules can be evaluated by methods known in the art or as described. While software algorithms can be used to generate an initial list of potential gRNA molecules, cleavage efficiency and specificity will not necessarily reflect predicted values, and gRNA molecules may generally require detection in specific cell lines. eg, primary human cell lines, eg, human HSPCs, eg, human CD34-V cells, to determine, for example, cleavage efficiency, indel formation, cleavage specificity, and change in phenotype wanted. These properties can be analyzed using the methods described in this document. In certain aspects of the invention, a gRNA comprising the targeting domain of 'GCR-OOOl (Seq. Id.

A Cas? molecule, as used herein, refers to a molecule that can interact with a gRNA molecule (eg, the sequence of a domain of a bring) and, in concert with the gRNA molecule, locate (eg, targeting or addressing) a site comprising a target sequence and a PAM sequence. In one embodiment, the Cas9 molecule is capable of cleaving a target nucleic acid molecule, which may be referred to herein as active Cas9 molecule. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises one. or more of the following activities: a-nickase activity, ie, the ability to cleave a single strand, eg, the non-complementary strand or the complementary strand, of a nucleic acid molecule; a double-stranded nuclease activity, ie, the ability to cleave both strands of a double-stranded nucleic acid and create a double-stranded break, which in one embodiment is the presence of two nickase activities; an endonuclease activity; an exonuclease activity; and a helicase activity, ie, the ability to unwind the helical structure of a double-stranded nucleic acid. In one embodiment, an enzymatically active Cas9 molecule cleaves both strands of DNA and results in a double-strand break. In one embodiment, a Cas9 molecule cleaves only one strand, eg, the strand to which the gRNA hybridizes, or the strand complementary to the strand to which the gRNA hybridizes. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises cleavage activity associated with an HNH-like domain. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises cleavage activity associated with an N-terminal UV-c-like domain. In a. embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises cleavage activity associated with an HNH-like domain and cleavage activity associated with an N-terminal UV-c-like domain. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises an active or cleavage-competent, HNH-like domain and an inactive or cleavage-incompetent, N-terminal RuvC-like domain. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule comprises an inactive, or cleavage-incompetent, HNH-like domain and an active, or cleavage-competent, N-terminal RuvC-like domain. In one embodiment, the ability of an active Cas9 molecule to interact with and cleave a target nucleic acid is dependent on the PAM sequence. A PAM sequence is a target nucleic acid sequence itself. In one embodiment, cleavage of the target nucleic acid occurs upstream of the PAM sequence. Active Cas9 molecules from different bacterial species can recognize different sequence motifs (eg, PAM sequences). In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule from S. 'pyogenes recognizes e! motif of the NGG sequence and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, eg, 3 to 5, base pairs upstream of that sequence. See for example. Mali el al, SCIENCE 2013; 3 39(6121): 82'3-826. In one embodiment, an active Cas9 molecule from S. thermophilus recognizes the NGGNG and NNAG AAVV (,W-A or T) sequence motif and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid core sequence 1 to 1.0, eg, 3 to 5, base pairs upstream of these sequences. See, eg, Horvath et al., SCIENCE 2010; 327(5962): 167-170, and Déveau eral, J BACTERIOL 2008; 190(4): 1390- 14QÓ. In one embodiment, an active S. mülans Casó molecule recognizes the NGG or NAAR (R-A or G) sequence motif and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid core sequence 1 to 10, eg, 3 5 base pairs upstream of this sequence. See, eg, Deveau et al., J BACTERIOL 2008; 190(4): 1390-1400- In one embodiment, a molecule. Active Cas9 from S. aureus recognizes the NNGRR sequence motif (R = A or G) and directs cleavage of the target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, eg, 3 to 5, base pairs upstream of that sequence. See, for example, Ran F, et al., NATURE, vol. 520, 201.5, ρρ, 186-191. In one embodiment, an active N. meningitidis Cas9 molecule recognizes the NNNNGATT sequence motif and directs cleavage of the target nucleic acid sequence 1 to '1.0, for example. 3 to 5., base pairs upstream of that sequence. See, for example, Hou et al, PNAS EARLY EDITION 2013, 1-6. The ability of a Cas9- molecule to recognize a PAM sequence can be determined, for example, using a. test.de teansíórmación described in. Jinek et al, SCIENCE 2012, 337:816. Some Cas9- molecules have the ability to interact with a gRNA molecule, and in conjunction with the gRNA molecule. they address (eg, target or localize) to a central target domain, but are unable to cleave the target nucleic acid, or unable to cleave at efficient rates. Cas9 molecules that do not have or do not have substantial cleavage activity may be referred to in the. present inactive Cas9 (enzymatically inactive Cas9), dead Cas9 or a dCas molecule. For example, an inactive Cas9 molecule may lack cleavage activity or have substantially less, eg, less than 20, 10, 5, 1, or 0.1% of the cleavage activity of a "reference" Cas9 molecule as measured by assay described herein.Examples of natural Cas9 molecules are described in Cbylinski et al, RNA Biology 2013;1():5, 727-737.Such Cas9 molecules include Cas9 molecules from typhus bacterial family of duster 1, bacterial family of duster 1, duster 2. bacterial family of cluster 3. bacterial family of cluster 3, family, bacterial of cluster 5, bacterial family of cluster 6, bacterial family of cluster 7, bacterial family of cluster 8, bacterial family of cluster 9, bacterial family of cluster duster 10, bacterial family, of duster 1.1, bacterial family of duster 12, bacterial family, of cluster 13, bacterial family of cluster 14, bacterial family of cluster 15. bacterial family of duster 16, bacte family riana of duster 17, bacterial family of cluster 18, bacterial family of cluster 19, bacterial family of cluster 20, bacterial family of. cluster 21, bacterial family of cluster 22, bacterial family of duster 23, bacterial family of duster 24, bacterial family of duster 2.5, bacterial family of cluster 26, bacterial family of duster 27, bacterial family of cluster 28, bacterial family of duster 29 , bacterial family of duster 30, bacterial family of cluster 31, bacterial family of duster 32, bacterial family of cluster 33, bacterial family of duster 34, bacterial family of cluster 35, bacterial family of duster 36, bacterial family of cluster 3 7, cluster 38 bacterial family, duster 39 bacterial family, duster 40 bacterial family, duster 41 bacterial family, cluster 42 bacterial family, duster 43 bacterial family, cluster 44 bacterial family, duster 45 bacterial family, bacterial family from cluster 46, duster bacterial family 47, duster bacterial family 48, duster bacterial family 49, bacterial family, from cluster 50, bacterial family of cluster 51, bacterial family of cluster 52, bacterial family of duster 53, .bacterial family of duster 54, bacterial family of cluster 55, bacterial family of cluster 56, bacterial family of cluster 57, bacterial family of cluster 58, bacterial family of duster .5'9, bacterial family of cluster 60, bacterial family of duster 61, bacterial family of duster 62, bacterial family of cluster 63, bacterial family of duster 64, bacterial family of cluster 65, bacterial family of duster 66, bacterial family of duster 67, bacterial family, of duster 68, bacterial family of cluster 69, bacterial family of cluster 70, bacterial family of cluster 71, bacterial fairilia of cluster 72, bacterial family of cluster 73, bacterial family of cluster 74, bacterial family of cluster 75, bacterial family of cluster 76, bacterial family of. cluster 77, or cluster 78 bacterial family.

In one embodiment, a Cas? may comprise one or more mutations or differences, for example at least 1,2, 3,4, 5, 10, 15, 20,30,40 or 50 mutations but less than 200,100, or 80 mutations in relation to a molecule Cas? reference. In a. embodiment, a mutation or mutations do not have a: substantial effect on a Cas9 activity, eg, a Cas9 activity described herein. In one embodiment, one or more mutations have a substantial effect on a Cas9 activity, eg, a Cas9 activity described herein. In one embodiment, examples of activity comprise one or more of PAM specificity, cleavage activity, and helicase activity. One or more mutations may be present, for example, in: one or more RuvC-like domains, eg, a RuvC N~tennin1-like domain; an HNH-like domain; a region outside the RuvCs-like domain and the HNH-like domain. In some embodiments, one or more mutations are present in an N-terminal RuvC-like domain. In some embodiments, one or more mutations are present in an HNH-like domain. In some embodiments, the mutations are present in an N-terminal UV-c-like domain. and an HNH-like domain. Whether or not a particular sequence, for example a substitution, may or may not affect one or more activities, such as targeting activity, cleavage activity. etc., can be evaluated or predicted, for example, by evaluating whether the mutation is conservative or by the method described in Section III. In one embodiment, a. "non-essential" amino acid residue, as used in the context of a Cas9 molecule, is a residue that can be altered from the sequence of a Cas? wild type, e.g., a natural C-as9 molecule, e.g., an active Cas9 molecule, without abolishing or-more preferably, without substantially altering a Cas9 activity (e.g., cleavage activity), while the change an "essential" amino acid residue results in a substantial loss of activity (eg, cleavage activity). Cas9 molecules with impaired PAM recognition or no PAM recognition The Cas molecules? naturally-occurring can recognize specific PAM sequences, eg, the FA.M recognition sequences described above for §. pyogenes, S. thermophius, S. mutans, S. aureus, and N. memngitidis. In one embodiment, a Casó molecule has the same PAM specificities as a native Cas9 molecule. In: other embodiments, a Cas9 molecule has a PAM specificity not associated with a wild-type Cas9 molecule, or a PAM specificity not associated with the wild-type Casó molecule with which it has the closest sequence homology. For example, a natural .Casó molecule can be altered, - eg, to alter PAM recognition, eg, to alter the PAM sequence that the Casó molecule recognizes to decrease target sites and / or improve specificity; or remove a PAM acknowledgment requirement. In one embodiment, a Cas9 molecule can be altered, for example, to increase the length of the PAM recognition sequence and / or enhance Casó specificity to a high level of identity to decrease target sites and increase specificity. . In one embodiment, the length of the PAM recognition sequence is at least 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or 15 amino acids in length. Casó molecules that recognize different PAM sequences and / or have reduced off-target activity can be generated using directed evolution. Examples of methods and systems that can be used for the directed evolution of Casó molecules are described, for example, in Esvelt et al, Nature 2011, 472(7344): 499-503, Candidate Casó molecules can be evaluated, for example, at through the methods described herein. Casó molecules without cleavage and with modified cleavage In one embodiment, a Casó molecule comprises a cleavage property that differs from naturally occurring Casó molecules, eg, differing from the naturally occurring Casó molecule having the closest homology. For example, a Casó molecule may differ from natural Casó molecules, eg, a Casó molecule from S. pyogenes, in the following way; its ability to modulate, eg, less or greater cleavage of a double-stranded break (endonulease and / or exonenulease activity), eg, compared to a naturally occurring Casó molecule (eg, a Cas9 molecule from S. pyogenes); its ability to modulate, e.g. less or more, cleavage of a single strand of a nucleic acid, e.g. a non-complementary strand of a nucleic acid molecule or a complementary strand of a nucleic acid molecule (nickase activity), eg, compared to a naturally occurring Casó molecule (eg, a Casó molecule from S. pyogenes); or the ability to cleave a nucleic acid molecule, eg, a double-stranded or single-stranded nucleic acid molecule, may be eliminated. Casó active molecules with modified cleavage In one embodiment, an active Casó molecule comprises one or more of the following activities: cleavage activity associated with an N-terminal UV-c-like domain; cleavage activity associated with an HNH-like domain; cleavage activity associated with an HN'H domain and cleavage activity associated with an N-terminal UV-c-like domain. In one embodiment, the Casó molecule is a Casó nickase, eg, it cuts only one strand of DNA. In one embodiment, the Casó nickase includes a mutation at position 10 and / or a mutation at position 840 of SEQ ID NO: 205. For example, it comprises a D10A and / or H840A mutation in the ld of Sec. No.: 205. Inactive Cas9 Molecules Without Cleavage In a. embodiment, the altered Cas9 molecule is an inactive Casó molecule that does not cleave a nucleic acid molecule (double-stranded or single-stranded nucleic acid molecules) or that cleaves a nucleic acid molecule with significantly less efficiency, e.g., less than 20.10, 5.1, or 0.1% of the ., cleavage activity of a reference Case molecule, eg, as measured by the assay described herein. The reference Casó molecule may be a naturally occurring unmodified Casó molecule, eg, a naturally occurring Casó molecule such as a Casó molecule from S. pyogenes, S. thermopbiius, :S. aureus or N. meningitidis. In one embodiment, the reference Casó molecule is the natural Casó molecule which has the closest sequence identity or homology. In one embodiment, the inactive Casó molecule lacks substantial cleavage activity associated with an N-terminal RuvC-like domain and cleavage activity associated with a tm HNH-like domain. In one embodiment, the Casó molecule is dCasÓ. Tsayet al. (2014), Nal. Biotecb. 32:569-577. A catalytically inactive Casó molecule can fuse with a transcriptional repressor. An inactive Casó fusion protein complexes with a gRNA and localizes to a DNA sequence specified by the -gRNA targeting domain, but, unlike an active Casó, it will not cleave the target DNA. Fusion of an effector domain, such as a transcriptional repression domain, into an inactive Case allows recruitment of the effector to any DNA site specified by the gRNA. Site-specific targeting of a Casó fusion protein to a promoter region of a gene can block or impair polymerase binding to the promoter region, for example, a Casó fusion with a transcription factor (eg, an activator of transcription), and / or a transcriptional enhancer binds to the nucleic acid to increase or inhibit transcriptional activation. Alternatively, site-specific targeting of a Caso- to a transcriptional repressor to a promoter region of a gene can be used to decrease transcriptional activation. Transcriptional repressors or transcriptional repressor domains that can be fused to an inactive Caso molecule may include the Kruppél associated domain (K.RAB or SKI)), the Mad m.SIN3 interaction domain (SID), or the ERE repressor domain. (ERDj. In another embodiment, an inactive Casó molecule can be fused with a protein that it modifies, chromatin. For example, an inactive Casó molecule can fuse with heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1), a histone Usin methyltransferase (eg, SUV39H1, SUV39H2, G9A, ESET / SETDB l, Pr-SET7 / 8, SUV4-2ΘΗ fiRIZl), a demediate lysine histone (e.g., LSDl / BHCi 10, SpLsdí / Sw, 1 / Safi 1Q, Su(var)3-3, JMJD2A / JHDM3A, JMTD2B, JMJD2C / GASC1, JMJD2D, Rpb I, JA.W 1 A / RBP2, JARl DÍB / PLU-I, JAR.1D IC / SMCX, JARID1 D / S-MCY, Lid, Jhr.2, Jmj2), a histone lysine deacetylase (eg, HDAC-l, HDAC2, HDAC3 , HDAC8, Rpd3, Hos I, Ciro, HDAC4, HDAC5, HD.AC7, HDÁCÓ, HdaL Cir3, SIRT I, SIR.T2, Sir2, Hst í,.Hst2, Hst3, Hst4, HDAC i 1 ) and a DNA methylase (DNMT1,DNM1'2a / DMNT3b, METI). Can a fusion protein of the chromatin-modifying molecule Cas? inactive to alter the state of chromatin to reduce the expression of a target gene. The heterologous sequence (eg, the transcriptional repressor domain) can be fused to the N- or C-terminus of the inactive Cas9 protein. In an alternative embodiment, the heterologous sequence (eg, the transcriptional repressor domain) can be fused to an internal portion (ie, a portion other than the N-terminus or C-terminus) of the Cas? protein. inactive. The ability of a Cas9 / gRNA molecule complex to bind to and cleave a target α-nucleic acid can be assessed, for example, by the methods described herein in Section ΠΪ. The activity of a Cas9 molecule, for example. Cas? active or inactive Cas.9, alone or in a complex with a gRNA molecule, can also be assessed by methods well known in the art, including gene expression assays and chromatin-based assays, for example, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChiP) and in vivo chromatin assay (CiA).
