Compositions and Methods of Delivering Treatments for Latent Viral Infections
Abstract
Viral infection is a persistent cause of human disease. Guided nuclease systems of the invention target the genomes of viral infections, rendering the viruses incapacitated. The invention further provides delivery methods and compositions for antiviral therapeutics. Methods and compositions are provided for targeted delivery of antiviral therapeutics into cells of interest using, for example, viral vectors such as adenovirus, AAV, and replication incompetent HSV. These and other delivery systems can be used as vehicles to deliver DNA vectors encoding a nuclease or a cell-killing gene. These delivery methods can also be used to deliver naked DNA or RNA, protein products, plasmids containing a promoter that is active only in a latent viral state which drives a cell-killing gene, or other therapeutic agents.
