Abstract
Nonsense suppressor transfer RNAs (tRNAs) or AntiCodon-Edited tRNAs (ACE-tRNAs) have long been envisioned as a therapeutic approach to overcome genetic diseases resulting from the introduction of premature termination codons (PTCs). The ACE-tRNA approach for the rescue of PTCs has been hampered by ineffective delivery through available modalities for gene therapy. Here we have screened a series of ACE-tRNA expression cassette sequence libraries containing >1800 members in an effort to optimize ACE-tRNA function and provide a roadmap for optimization in the future. By optimizing PTC suppression efficiency of ACE-tRNAs, we have decreased the amount of ACE-tRNA required by ∼16-fold for the most common cystic fibrosis-causing PTCs.
期刊介绍：
Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) is a scientific journal that publishes research on various aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and interactions. It covers areas such as chemistry and synthetic biology, computational biology, gene regulation, chromatin and epigenetics, genome integrity, repair and replication, genomics, molecular biology, nucleic acid enzymes, RNA, and structural biology. The journal also includes a Survey and Summary section for brief reviews. Additionally, each year, the first issue is dedicated to biological databases, and an issue in July focuses on web-based software resources for the biological community. Nucleic Acids Research is indexed by several services including Abstracts on Hygiene and Communicable Diseases, Animal Breeding Abstracts, Agricultural Engineering Abstracts, Agbiotech News and Information, BIOSIS Previews, CAB Abstracts, and EMBASE.
