Provided herein are compositions and methods for packaging a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) particle comprising using inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) and rep genes of different serotypes and/or using chimeric rep genes.

AAV chimeras

Provided herein are compositions and methods for packaging a recombinant adeno-associated vims (rAAV) particle comprising using inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) and rep genes of different serotypes and/or using chimeric rep genes.

Provided herein are compositions of virus like particles (VLPs) of poliovirus (PV) that have one or more stabilizing mutations that confer a higher degree of thermostability to the N-antigenic form of the VLPs. These VLPs are non-infectious, and thus safer for use in vaccine development and administration to clinical subjects.

N-antigenic form poliovirus virus-like particles comprising thermostable mutations

Disclosed herein are modified carbonic anhydrase enzymes, and a process of using same for the extraction, production and purification of carbon dioxide gas. More particularly, modified carbonic anhydrase enzymes are used for the production, purification of carbon dioxide and the products of the hydration reaction, hydrogen and bicarbonate ions Also, this technology is used to enhance the production of carbon dioxide in blood or in reverse osmosis desalination to remove carbon dioxide. Specifically, the invention relates to a modified carbonic anhydrase enzyme possessing improved activity and a process whereby immobilized modified carbonic anhydrase contained within a reactor device catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide.
