    Abstract: Through screening of an expression library, a cDNA sequence has been identified that encodes a protein that interacts with human CD33, the DNA being highly homologous to a portion of the human dystrophin gene. A region of that cDNA has been identified as an important regulatory element in controlling expression, both transcription and translation, of the DNA with which it is associated. This DNA sequence element may be used as a regulatory cassette in conjunction with any suitable gene, to modify gene expression. The putative controlling DNA sequence element contains a minimum of 137 base pairs (FIG. 1) to 147 base pairs (FIG. 1A) and a maximum of 287 base pairs (FIG. 1B).

    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for expressing mini-dystrophin peptides. In particular, the present invention provides compositions comprising nucleic acid sequences that are shorter than wild-type dystrophin cDNA and that express mini-dystrophin peptides that function in a similar manner as wild-type dystrophin proteins. The present invention also provides compositions comprising mini-dystrophin peptides, and methods for expressing mini-dystrophin peptides in target cells.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a series of novel dystrophin minigenes that retain the essential biological functions. The expression of the dystrophin minigenes may be controlled by a regulatory element along with a small polyadenylation signal. The entire gene expression cassettes may be readily packaged into a viral vector, preferably an AAV vector. The present invention further defines the minimal functional domains of dystrophin and provides ways to optimize and create new versions of dystrophin minigenes. Finally, the present invention provides a method of treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD).

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer to regulate function in cardiac and vascular smooth muscle cells. A recombinant adenovirus comprising a DNA sequence that codes for a gene product is delivered to a cardiac or vascular smooth muscle cell and the cell is maintained until that gene product is expressed. Delivery is direct injection into a muscle cell or infusing a pharmaceutical composition containing an adenovirus virus vector construct intravascularly.
