Horizon Discovery Licenses AAV Gene Delivery Technology from Stanford University
Created by Professor Mark Kay at Stanford this artificial serotype of AAV known as AAV-DJ effectively transduces (infects) a broader range of mammalian cells (>80%) than any naturally occurring AAV serotype, enabling Horizon to target an increased range of cell types. Combined with Horizon’s existing exclusive license for use of rAAV (recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus) from the University of Washington, the Company is the sole source of this effective and highly precise mechanism for gene editing.
