Directed Evolution Of AAV Vectors That Undergo Retrograde Axonal Transport

AAV can be endowed with robust retrograde functionality through directed evolution  Up to two orders of magnitude  increase in retrograde transport over existing variants Efficiency  comparable to synthetic tracers in many circuits Payload  expression levels are sufficient for circuit interrogation  and gene manipulation

Gene therapy, including the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by pathological spread through functionally connected and highly distributed networks.
