| abstract |
The present disclosure provides a library of engineered DNASE proteins (including DNASE1, DNASE1-LIKE 1, DNASE1-LIKE 2, DNASE1-LIKE 3, DNASE2A, DNASE2B) that allows to select drug candidates for developing therapeutics for treating conditions characterized by neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) accumulation and/or release. In accordance with the invention, the selected DNase variant has improved properties, including properties amenable to clinical development, including manufacturing, toxicology, pharmacokinetic, and/or use in therapy. |
