The Harry S Truman Memorial Veterans Hospital, Columbia, MO 65201 has a brand name only requirement for Development/Production- Kidney GEC- Specific AAV Vector. Statement of Work (SOW) For GEC Targeted Adeno Associated Virus Vector Development Contract Description: Development and production of a kidney glomerular endothelial cell specific AAV vector for VA preclinical research. 1.0 Scope of Work: 1.1 This requirement is a VA ORD Merit funded project (#1I21RD001234-01) to develop a kidney glomerular endothelial cell specific viral vector. 1.2 The goal of the project is to build a homing peptide enabled vector platform capable of targeting the glomerular endothelium to treat kidney injury and disease and to enhance traditional pharmacologic approaches. 1.3 The work will modify the capsid of an endothelial specific, non immunogenic viral vector by incorporating a peptide that specifically targets kidney glomerular endothelial cells (GEC), with the objective of increasing specificity, reducing off target transduction, and overcoming known limitations in vector targeting to the kidney. 2.0 Background: 2.1 This requirement in response to RD-01-PILT: ISRM Pilot Project Award I21 was selected for funding by ORD;
