Description

NOVEL REGULATORS OF T CELLS CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/579,780 filed August 30, 2023, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.63/636,706 filed April 19, 2024, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.63/636,859 filed April 21, 2024, the entire contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference. FIELD [0002] This disclosure relates to compositions and methods for delivering, increasing, or activating genes to enhance properties of T cells for improving immunotherapies for viral infections and cancer, including adoptive T cell therapy (ACT). INTRODUCTION [0003] T cells are part of the immune system’s adaptive defense. They specifically target and kill both virally infected and cancerous cells through antigen recognition. Unfortunately, cancer can exploit intrinsic T cell mechanisms to survive attack by the immune system. T cell state and function are largely regulated by specific transcription factors (TFs) and epigenetic modifiers that process intrinsic and extrinsic signals into complex and tightly controlled gene expression programs. T cell exhaustion arises from chronic antigen stimulation, which shifts a portion of the T cell population to the exhausted state (T_EX), resulting in diminished T cell proliferation and tumor/viral clearance. The transcription factor TOX, for example, drives and maintains the T_EX cell state through epigenetic regulation of exhaustion-associated genetic programs. [0004] Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) holds tremendous potential for cancer treatment by redirecting T cells to cancer cells via expression of engineered receptors that recognize and bind to tumor-associated antigens. Receptor-antigen interactions can initiate complex transcriptional networks that drive multipotent T cell response and lead to cancer cell death. The potency and duration of T cell response are associated with defined T cell subsets, and cell products enriched in stem or memory T cells, provide superior tumor control in animal models and in the clinic. Given the association between defined T cell subsets and clinical outcomes, precise regulation or programming of T cell state may be one approach to improve the therapeutic potential of ACT. [0005] T cell exhaustion drives dysfunction and impaired immune response to cancer and chronic viral infections. Modern genome engineering technologies have the potential to dramatically advance T cell therapy by programming exhausted T cells to desirable phenotypes. There is a need to find and develop regulators of T cell state and discover T cell gene networks and their corresponding phenotypes, in order to enhance T cell phenotype and improve the efficacy of T cell therapies to help treat viral infections, kill cancer cells, and control solid tumors.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION [00033] Provided herein are compositions and methods for increasing or enhancing T cells, which may be used to enhance antiviral therapies and cancer therapies such as ACT. The compositions and methods may include increasing gene expression or a gene product thereof that encodes a regulator of T cell phenotypes, such as transcription factors, and may include, for example, delivery of a vector encoding the gene or increasing gene expression or a gene product thereof. Transcriptions factors (TFs) are central mediators of cellular reprogramming and differentiation. The gene may be selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1. As detailed herein, cDNA overexpression screens were conducted, using open reading frames (ORFs) encoding all known transcription factors, in primary CD8 T-cells to identify genetic regulators of CD103 (a residency marker) and IL7Ra (a memory marker). Overexpression of one or more of these genes resulted in widespread transcriptional reprogramming, including activation of genes associated with increased tissue residency programs (for example, ITGAE, CD69, and CXCR6) and decreases in genes associated with circulation programs (for example, KLF2 and S1PR1). Increased expression of one or more of the genes detailed herein may impact the “resident memory” phenotype of a T cell, which relates to durability of the T cell and/or the distribution and infiltration of the T cell into tissues. The genes disclosed herein could be used to support specific features of memory T cells, counter T cell exhaustion, improve tumor control, enhance T cell infiltration into tissues, and/or engineer T cells with enhanced durability and therapeutic potential. The gene targets identified and described herein may be used, for example, to improve the efficacy of ACT. 1.

[00046] “Complement” or “complementary” as used herein means a nucleic acid can mean Watson-Crick (e.g., A-T/U and C-G) or Hoogsteen base pairing between nucleotides or nucleotide analogs of nucleic acid molecules. “Complementarity” refers to a property shared between two nucleic acid sequences, such that when they are aligned antiparallel to each other, the nucleotide bases at each position will be complementary. [00047] The terms “control,” “reference level,” and “reference” are used herein interchangeably. The reference level may be a predetermined value or range, which is employed as a benchmark against which to assess the measured result. “Control group” as used herein refers to a group of control subjects. The predetermined level may be a cutoff value from a control group. The predetermined level may be an average from a control group. Cutoff values (or predetermined cutoff values) may be determined by Adaptive Index Model (AIM) methodology. Cutoff values (or predetermined cutoff values) may be determined by a receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis from biological samples of the patient group. ROC analysis, as generally known in the biological arts, is a determination of the ability of a test to discriminate one condition from another, e.g., to determine the performance of each marker in identifying a patient having CRC. A description of ROC analysis is provided in P.J. Heagerty et al. (Biometrics 2000, 56, 337-44), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Alternatively, cutoff values may be determined by a quartile analysis of biological samples of a patient group. For example, a cutoff value may be determined by selecting a value that corresponds to any value in the 25th-75th percentile range, preferably a value that corresponds to the 25th percentile, the 50th percentile or the 75th percentile, and more preferably the 75th percentile. Such statistical analyses may be performed using any method known in the art and can be implemented through any number of commercially available software packages (e.g., from Analyse-it Software Ltd., Leeds, UK; StataCorp LP, College Station, TX; SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC.). The healthy or normal levels or ranges for a target or for a protein activity may be defined in accordance with standard practice. A control may be a subject or cell without a composition as detailed herein. A control may be a subject, or a sample therefrom, whose disease state is known. The subject, or sample therefrom, may be healthy, diseased, diseased prior to treatment, diseased during treatment, or diseased after treatment, or a combination thereof. [00048] “Correcting”, “gene editing,” and “restoring” as used herein refers to changing a mutant gene that encodes a dysfunctional protein or truncated protein or no protein at all, such that a full-length functional or partially full-length functional protein expression is obtained. Correcting or restoring a mutant gene may include replacing the region of the gene that has the mutation or replacing the entire mutant gene with a copy of the gene that does not have the mutation with a repair mechanism such as homology-directed repair (HDR). Correcting or restoring a mutant gene may also include repairing a frameshift mutation that causes a premature stop codon, an aberrant splice acceptor site or an aberrant splice donor site, by generating a double stranded break in the gene that is then repaired using non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). NHEJ may add or delete at least one base pair during repair which may restore the proper reading frame and eliminate the premature stop codon. Correcting or restoring a mutant gene may also include disrupting an aberrant splice acceptor site or splice donor sequence. Correcting or restoring a mutant gene may also include deleting a non-essential gene segment by the simultaneous action of two nucleases on the same DNA strand in order to restore the proper reading frame by removing the DNA between the two nuclease target sites and repairing the DNA break by NHEJ. [00049] “Donor DNA”, “donor template,” and “repair template” as used interchangeably herein refers to a double-stranded DNA fragment or molecule that includes at least a portion of the gene of interest. The donor DNA may encode a full-functional protein or a partially functional protein. [00050] “Enhancer” as used herein refers to non-coding DNA sequences containing multiple activator and repressor binding sites. Enhancers range from 200 bp to 1 kb in length and may be either proximal, 5’ upstream to the promoter or within the first intron of the regulated gene, or distal, in introns of neighboring genes or intergenic regions far away from the locus. Through DNA looping, active enhancers contact the promoter dependently of the core DNA binding motif promoter specificity. 4 to 5 enhancers may interact with a promoter. Similarly, enhancers may regulate more than one gene without linkage restriction and may “skip” neighboring genes to regulate more distant ones. Transcriptional regulation may involve elements located in a chromosome different to one where the promoter resides. Proximal enhancers or promoters of neighboring genes may serve as platforms to recruit more distal elements. [00051] “Frameshift” or “frameshift mutation” as used interchangeably herein refers to a type of gene mutation wherein the addition or deletion of one or more nucleotides causes a shift in the reading frame of the codons in the mRNA. The shift in reading frame may lead to the alteration in the amino acid sequence at protein translation, such as a missense mutation or a premature stop codon. [00052] “Functional” and “full-functional” as used herein describes protein that has biological activity. A “functional gene” refers to a gene transcribed to mRNA, which is translated to a functional protein. [00053] “Fusion protein” as used herein refers to a chimeric protein created through the joining of two or more genes that originally coded for separate proteins. The translation of the fusion gene results in a single polypeptide with functional properties derived from each of the original proteins. [00054] “Genetic construct" as used herein refers to the DNA or RNA molecules that comprise a polynucleotide that encodes a protein. The coding sequence includes initiation and termination signals operably linked to regulatory elements including a promoter and polyadenylation signal capable of directing expression in the cells of the individual to whom the nucleic acid molecule is administered. As used herein, the term “expressible form” refers to gene constructs that contain the necessary regulatory elements operable linked to a coding sequence that encodes a protein such that when present in the cell of the individual, the coding sequence will be expressed. The regulatory elements may include, for example, a promoter, an enhancer, an initiation codon, a stop codon, or a polyadenylation signal. [00055] “Genome editing” or “gene editing” as used herein refers to changing the DNA sequence of a gene. Genome editing may include correcting or restoring a mutant gene or adding additional mutations. Genome editing may include knocking out a gene, such as a mutant gene or a normal gene. Genome editing may be used to treat disease or, for example, enhance muscle repair, by changing the gene of interest. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods detailed herein are for use in somatic cells and not germ line cells. [00056] The term “heterologous” as used herein refers to nucleic acid comprising two or more subsequences that are not found in the same relationship to each other in nature. For instance, a nucleic acid that is recombinantly produced typically has two or more sequences from unrelated genes synthetically arranged to make a new functional nucleic acid, for example, a promoter from one source and a coding region from another source. The two nucleic acids are thus heterologous to each other in this context. When added to a cell, the recombinant nucleic acids would also be heterologous to the endogenous genes of the cell. Thus, in a chromosome, a heterologous nucleic acid would include a non-native (non- naturally occurring) nucleic acid that has integrated into the chromosome, or a non-native (non-naturally occurring) extrachromosomal nucleic acid. Similarly, a heterologous protein indicates that the protein comprises two or more subsequences that are not found in the same relationship to each other in nature (for example, a “fusion protein,” where the two subsequences are encoded by a single nucleic acid sequence). [00057] “Homology-directed repair” or “HDR” as used interchangeably herein refers to a mechanism in cells to repair double strand DNA lesions when a homologous piece of DNA is present in the nucleus, mostly in G2 and S phase of the cell cycle. HDR uses a donor DNA template to guide repair and may be used to create specific sequence changes to the genome, including the targeted addition of whole genes. If a donor template is provided along with the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system, then the cellular machinery will repair the break by homologous recombination, which is enhanced several orders of magnitude in the presence of DNA cleavage. When the homologous DNA piece is absent, non-homologous end joining may take place instead. [00058] “Identical” or “identity” as used herein in the context of two or more polynucleotide or polypeptide sequences means that the sequences have a specified percentage of residues that are the same over a specified region. The percentage may be calculated by optimally aligning the two sequences, comparing the two sequences over the specified region, determining the number of positions at which the identical residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the specified region, and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. In cases where the two sequences are of different lengths or the alignment produces one or more staggered ends and the specified region of comparison includes only a single sequence, the residues of single sequence are included in the denominator but not the numerator of the calculation. When comparing DNA and RNA, thymine (T) and uracil (U) may be considered equivalent. Identity may be performed manually or by using a computer sequence algorithm such as BLAST or BLAST 2.0. [00059] “Mutant gene” or “mutated gene” as used interchangeably herein refers to a gene that has undergone a detectable mutation. A mutant gene has undergone a change, such as the loss, gain, or exchange of genetic material, which affects the normal transmission and expression of the gene. A “disrupted gene” as used herein refers to a mutant gene that has a mutation that causes a premature stop codon. The disrupted gene product is truncated relative to a full-length undisrupted gene product. [00060] “Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway” as used herein refers to a pathway that repairs double-strand breaks in DNA by directly ligating the break ends without the need for a homologous template. The template-independent re-ligation of DNA ends by NHEJ is a stochastic, error-prone repair process that introduces random micro-insertions and micro-deletions (indels) at the DNA breakpoint. This method may be used to intentionally disrupt, delete, or alter the reading frame of targeted gene sequences. NHEJ typically uses short homologous DNA sequences called microhomologies to guide repair. These microhomologies are often present in single-stranded overhangs on the end of double-strand breaks. When the overhangs are perfectly compatible, NHEJ usually repairs the break accurately, yet imprecise repair leading to loss of nucleotides may also occur, but is much more common when the overhangs are not compatible. “Nuclease mediated NHEJ” as used herein refers to NHEJ that is initiated after a nuclease cuts double stranded DNA. [00061] “Normal gene” as used herein refers to a gene that has not undergone a change, such as a loss, gain, or exchange of genetic material. The normal gene undergoes normal gene transmission and gene expression. For example, a normal gene may be a wild-type gene. [00062] “Nucleic acid” or “oligonucleotide” or “polynucleotide” as used herein means at least two nucleotides covalently linked together. The depiction of a single strand also defines the sequence of the complementary strand. Thus, a polynucleotide also encompasses the complementary strand of a depicted single strand. Many variants of a polynucleotide may be used for the same purpose as a given polynucleotide. Thus, a polynucleotide also encompasses substantially identical polynucleotides and complements thereof. A single strand provides a probe that may hybridize to a target sequence under stringent hybridization conditions. Thus, a polynucleotide also encompasses a probe that hybridizes under stringent hybridization conditions. Polynucleotides may be single stranded or double stranded or may contain portions of both double stranded and single stranded sequence. The polynucleotide can be nucleic acid, natural or synthetic, DNA, genomic DNA, cDNA, RNA, mRNA, or a hybrid, where the polynucleotide can contain combinations of deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleotides, and combinations of bases including, for example, uracil, adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, inosine, xanthine hypoxanthine, isocytosine, and isoguanine. Polynucleotides can be obtained by chemical synthesis methods or by recombinant methods. [00063] “Open reading frame” refers to a stretch of codons that begins with a start codon and ends at a stop codon. In eukaryotic genes with multiple exons, introns are removed, and exons are then joined together after transcription to yield the final mRNA for protein translation. An open reading frame may be a continuous stretch of codons. In some embodiments, the open reading frame only applies to spliced mRNAs, not genomic DNA, for expression of a protein. [00064] “Operably linked” as used herein means that expression of a gene is under the control of a promoter with which it is spatially connected. A promoter may be positioned 5' (upstream) or 3' (downstream) of a gene under its control. The distance between the promoter and a gene may be approximately the same as the distance between that promoter and the gene it controls in the gene from which the promoter is derived. As is known in the art, variation in this distance may be accommodated without loss of promoter function. Nucleic acid or amino acid sequences are “operably linked” (or “operatively linked”) when placed into a functional relationship with one another. For instance, a promoter or enhancer is operably linked to a coding sequence if it regulates, or contributes to the modulation of, the transcription of the coding sequence. Operably linked DNA sequences are typically contiguous, and operably linked amino acid sequences are typically contiguous and in the same reading frame. However, since enhancers generally function when separated from the promoter by up to several kilobases or more and intronic sequences may be of variable lengths, some polynucleotide elements may be operably linked but not contiguous. Similarly, certain amino acid sequences that are non-contiguous in a primary polypeptide sequence may nonetheless be operably linked due to, for example folding of a polypeptide chain. With respect to fusion polypeptides, the terms “operatively linked” and “operably linked” can refer to the fact that each of the components performs the same function in linkage to the other component as it would if it were not so linked. [00065] “Partially-functional” as used herein describes a protein that is encoded by a mutant gene and has less biological activity than a functional protein but more than a non- functional protein. [00066] A “peptide” or “polypeptide” is a linked sequence of two or more amino acids linked by peptide bonds. The polypeptide can be natural, synthetic, or a modification or combination of natural and synthetic. Peptides and polypeptides include proteins such as binding proteins, receptors, and antibodies. The terms “polypeptide”, “protein,” and “peptide” are used interchangeably herein. “Primary structure” refers to the amino acid sequence of a particular peptide. “Secondary structure” refers to locally ordered, three dimensional structures within a polypeptide. These structures are commonly known as domains, for example, enzymatic domains, extracellular domains, transmembrane domains, pore domains, and cytoplasmic tail domains. “Domains” are portions of a polypeptide that form a compact unit of the polypeptide and are typically 15 to 350 amino acids long. Exemplary domains include domains with enzymatic activity or ligand binding activity. Typical domains are made up of sections of lesser organization such as stretches of beta-sheet and alpha- helices. “Tertiary structure” refers to the complete three-dimensional structure of a polypeptide monomer. “Quaternary structure” refers to the three-dimensional structure formed by the noncovalent association of independent tertiary units. A “motif” is a portion of a polypeptide sequence and includes at least two amino acids. A motif may be 2 to 20, 2 to 15, or 2 to 10 amino acids in length. In some embodiments, a motif includes 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 sequential amino acids. A domain may be comprised of a series of the same type of motif. [00067] “Premature stop codon” or “out-of-frame stop codon” as used interchangeably herein refers to nonsense mutation in a sequence of DNA, which results in a stop codon at location not normally found in the wild-type gene. A premature stop codon may cause a protein to be truncated or shorter compared to the full-length version of the protein. [00068] “Promoter” as used herein means a synthetic or naturally derived molecule which is capable of conferring, activating or enhancing expression of a nucleic acid in a cell. A promoter may comprise one or more specific transcriptional regulatory sequences to further enhance expression and/or to alter the spatial expression and/or temporal expression of same. A promoter may also comprise distal enhancer or repressor elements, which may be located as much as several thousand base pairs from the start site of transcription. A promoter may be derived from sources including viral, bacterial, fungal, plants, insects, and animals. A promoter may regulate the expression of a gene component constitutively, or differentially with respect to cell, the tissue or organ in which expression occurs or, with respect to the developmental stage at which expression occurs, or in response to external stimuli such as physiological stresses, pathogens, metal ions, or inducing agents. Representative examples of promoters include the bacteriophage T7 promoter, bacteriophage T3 promoter, SP6 promoter, lac operator-promoter, tac promoter, SV40 late promoter, SV40 early promoter, RSV-LTR promoter, CMV IE promoter, SV40 early promoter or SV40 late promoter, human U6 (hU6) promoter, and CMV IE promoter. Promoters that target muscle-specific stem cells may include the CK8 promoter, the Spc5-12 promoter, and the MHCK7 promoter. [00069] The term “recombinant” when used with reference to, for example, a cell, nucleic acid, protein, or vector, indicates that the cell, nucleic acid, protein, or vector, has been modified by the introduction of a heterologous nucleic acid or protein or the alteration of a native nucleic acid or protein, or that the cell is derived from a cell so modified. Thus, for example, recombinant cells express genes that are not found within the native (naturally occurring) form of the cell or express a second copy of a native gene that is otherwise normally or abnormally expressed, under expressed, or not expressed at all. [00070] The term “shRNA” stands for short hairpin RNA or small hairpin RNA. A shRNA is an artificial RNA molecule with a tight hairpin turn that can be used to silence target gene expression via RNA interference (RNAi). Expression of shRNA in cells may be facilitated by delivery of plasmids or viral or bacterial vectors. The shRNA is processed by Dicer into siRNA. [00071] The term “siRNA” stands for small interfering RNA siRNA, sometimes also known as short interfering RNA or silencing RNA. A siRNA is a class of double-stranded RNA molecule. The siRNA may be natural or artificial. The siRNA forms a complex with the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). The antisense (guide) strand of siRNA directs RISC to mRNA that has a complementary sequence, and then the mRNA is cleaved by RISC or its translation is repressed. [00072] “Sample” or “test sample” as used herein can mean any sample in which the presence and/or level of a target is to be detected or determined or any sample comprising a DNA targeting or gene editing system or component thereof as detailed herein. Samples may include liquids, solutions, emulsions, or suspensions. Samples may include a medical sample. Samples may include any biological fluid or tissue, such as blood, whole blood, fractions of blood such as plasma and serum, muscle, interstitial fluid, sweat, saliva, urine, tears, synovial fluid, bone marrow, cerebrospinal fluid, nasal secretions, sputum, amniotic fluid, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, gastric lavage, emesis, fecal matter, lung tissue, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, total white blood cells, lymph node cells, spleen cells, tonsil cells, cancer cells, tumor cells, bile, digestive fluid, skin, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the sample comprises an aliquot. In other embodiments, the sample comprises a biological fluid. Samples can be obtained by any means known in the art. The sample can be used directly as obtained from a patient or can be pre-treated, such as by filtration, distillation, extraction, concentration, centrifugation, inactivation of interfering components, addition of reagents, and the like, to modify the character of the sample in some manner as discussed herein or otherwise as is known in the art. [00073] “Subject” and “patient” as used herein interchangeably refers to any vertebrate, including, but not limited to, a mammal that wants or is in need of the herein described compositions or methods. The subject may be a human or a non-human. The subject may be a vertebrate. The subject may be a mammal. The mammal may be a primate or a non- primate. The mammal can be a non-primate such as, for example, cow, pig, camel, llama, hedgehog, anteater, platypus, elephant, alpaca, horse, goat, rabbit, sheep, hamster, guinea pig, cat, dog, rat, and mouse. The mammal can be a primate such as a human. The mammal can be a non-human primate such as, for example, monkey, cynomolgous monkey, rhesus monkey, chimpanzee, gorilla, orangutan, and gibbon. The subject may be of any age or stage of development, such as, for example, an adult, an adolescent, a child, such as age 0-2, 2-4, 2-6, or 6-12 years, or an infant, such as age 0-1 years. The subject may be male. The subject may be female. In some embodiments, the subject has a specific genetic marker. The subject may be undergoing other forms of treatment. The subject may have a disease or condition. In some embodiments, the subject has cancer. In some embodiments, the subject is human. [00074] “Substantially identical” can mean that a first and second amino acid or polynucleotide sequence are at least 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%, or less than 100% over a region of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100 amino acids or nucleotides, respectively. [00075] “Target gene” as used herein refers to any nucleotide sequence encoding a known or putative gene product. The target gene may be a mutated gene involved in a genetic disease. The target gene may encode a known or putative gene product that is intended to be corrected or for which its expression is intended to be modulated. In certain embodiments, the target gene is a gene detailed herein as a modulator of T cells. [00076] “Target region” as used herein refers to the region of the target gene to which the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing or targeting system is designed to bind. [00077] “T cells” are a type of white blood cell of the immune system and play a central role in the adaptive immune response. T cells express a T-cell receptor (TCR) on their cell surface. The T cell receptor (TCR) of a T cell is able to interact with immunogenic peptides (epitopes) bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and presented on the surface of target cells. Specific binding of the TCR triggers a signal cascade inside the T cell leading to proliferation and differentiation into a maturated effector T cell. T cells may differentiate into different types of T cells. T cells may include, for example, CD8+ T cells (“killer T cells” or “cytotoxic T cells) and CD4+ T cells (“helper T cells”). CD8+ T cells and CD4+ T cells may further differentiate into other types of T cells including, for example, regulatory T cells (“suppressor T cells”) and memory T cells. In some embodiments herein, the T cell is a memory T cell. An antigen-naïve T cell expands and differentiates into a memory T cell after encountering the cognate antigen within the context of a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule on the surface of an antigen presenting cell. Memory T cells may be CD8+ or CD4+. Memory T cells are long-lived and can quickly expand to large numbers of effector T cells upon re-exposure to their cognate antigen. Tissue-resident memory T cells (T_RM cells) are a subset of a long-lived memory T cells that occupy epithelial, mucosal, and other tissues such as skin, mucosa, lung, brain, pancreas, and gastrointestinal tract, without recirculating. T_RM cells may be transcriptionally, phenotypically, and functionally different from central memory (T_CM) and effector memory (T_EM) T cells that recirculate between blood, the T cell zones of secondary lymphoid organ, lymph tissues, and nonlymphoid tissues. T_RM cells can develop from circulating effector memory T cell precursors in response to an antigen. TRM cells may be CD103+. TRM cells may provide superior protection against infection in extralymphoid tissues. A T cell detailed herein may be a T_RM cell. [00078] “Transgene” as used herein refers to a gene or genetic material containing a gene sequence that has been isolated from one organism and is introduced into a different organism. This non-native segment of DNA may retain the ability to produce RNA or protein in the transgenic organism, or it may alter the normal function of the transgenic organism's genetic code. The introduction of a transgene has the potential to change the phenotype of an organism. [00079] “Transcriptional regulatory elements” or “regulatory elements” refers to a genetic element which can control the expression of nucleic acid sequences, such as activate, enhancer, or decrease expression, or alter the spatial and/or temporal expression of a nucleic acid sequence. Examples of regulatory elements include, for example, promoters, enhancers, splicing signals, polyadenylation signals, and termination signals. A regulatory element can be “endogenous,” “exogenous,” or “heterologous” with respect to the gene to which it is operably linked. An “endogenous” regulatory element is one which is naturally linked with a given gene in the genome. An “exogenous” or “heterologous” regulatory element is one which is not normally linked with a given gene but is placed in operable linkage with a gene by genetic manipulation. [00080] “Treatment” or “treating” or “therapy” when referring to protection of a subject from a disease, means suppressing, repressing, reversing, alleviating, ameliorating, or inhibiting the progress of disease, or completely eliminating a disease. A treatment may be either performed in an acute or chronic way. The term also refers to reducing the severity of a disease or symptoms associated with such disease prior to affliction with the disease. Treatment may result in a reduction in the incidence, frequency, severity, and/or duration of symptoms of the disease. Preventing the disease involves administering a composition of the present invention to a subject prior to onset of the disease. Suppressing the disease involves administering a composition of the present invention to a subject after induction of the disease but before its clinical appearance. Repressing or ameliorating the disease involves administering a composition of the present invention to a subject after clinical appearance of the disease. [00081] As used herein, the term “gene therapy” refers to a method of treating a patient wherein polypeptides or nucleic acid sequences are transferred into cells of a patient such that activity and/or the expression of a particular gene is modulated. In certain embodiments, the expression of the gene is suppressed. In certain embodiments, the expression of the gene is enhanced. In certain embodiments, the temporal or spatial pattern of the expression of the gene is modulated. [00082] “Variant” used herein with respect to a polynucleotide means (i) a portion or fragment of a referenced nucleotide sequence; (ii) the complement of a referenced nucleotide sequence or portion thereof; (iii) a nucleic acid that is substantially identical to a referenced nucleic acid or the complement thereof; or (iv) a nucleic acid that hybridizes under stringent conditions to the referenced nucleic acid, complement thereof, or a sequence substantially identical thereto. A variant can be a polynucleotide sequence that is substantially identical over the full length of the full polynucleotide sequence or a fragment thereof. The polynucleotide sequence can be 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%, or less than 100% identical over the full length of the polynucleotide sequence or a fragment thereof. [00083] “Variant” with respect to a peptide or polypeptide that differs in amino acid sequence by the insertion, deletion, or conservative substitution of amino acids, but retain at least one biological activity. Variant may also mean a protein with an amino acid sequence that is substantially identical to a referenced protein with an amino acid sequence that retains at least one biological activity. Representative examples of “biological activity” include the ability to be bound by a specific antibody or polypeptide or to promote an immune response. Variant can mean a functional fragment thereof. Variant can also mean multiple copies of a polypeptide. The multiple copies can be in tandem or separated by a linker. A conservative substitution of an amino acid, for example, replacing an amino acid with a different amino acid of similar properties (for example, hydrophilicity, degree and distribution of charged regions) is recognized in the art as typically involving a minor change. These minor changes may be identified, in part, by considering the hydropathic index of amino acids, as understood in the art (Kyte et al., J. Mol. Biol.1982, 157, 105-132). The hydropathic index of an amino acid is based on a consideration of its hydrophobicity and charge. It is known in the art that amino acids of similar hydropathic indexes may be substituted and still retain protein function. In one aspect, amino acids having hydropathic indexes of ±2 are substituted. The hydrophilicity of amino acids may also be used to reveal substitutions that would result in proteins retaining biological function. A consideration of the hydrophilicity of amino acids in the context of a peptide permits calculation of the greatest local average hydrophilicity of that peptide. Substitutions may be performed with amino acids having hydrophilicity values within ±2 of each other. Both the hydrophobicity index and the hydrophilicity value of amino acids are influenced by the particular side chain of that amino acid. Consistent with that observation, amino acid substitutions that are compatible with biological function are understood to depend on the relative similarity of the amino acids, and particularly the side chains of those amino acids, as revealed by the hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, charge, size, and other properties. A variant can be an amino acid sequence that is substantially identical over the full length of the amino acid sequence or fragment thereof. The amino acid sequence can be 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%, or less than 100% identical over the full length of the amino acid sequence or a fragment thereof. [00084] “Vector” as used herein means a nucleic acid sequence containing an origin of replication. A vector may be capable of directing the delivery or transfer of a polynucleotide sequence to target cells, where it can be replicated or expressed. A vector may contain an origin of replication, one or more regulatory elements, and/or one or more coding sequences. A vector may be a viral vector, bacteriophage, bacterial artificial chromosome, plasmid, cosmid, or yeast artificial chromosome. A vector may be a DNA or RNA vector. A vector may be a self-replicating extrachromosomal vector. Viral vectors include, but are not limited to, adenovirus vector, adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector, retrovirus vector, or lentivirus vector. A vector may be an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector. The vector may encode a Cas9 protein and at least one gRNA molecule. [00085] Unless otherwise defined herein, scientific and technical terms used in connection with the present disclosure shall have the meanings that are commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. For example, any nomenclatures used in connection with, and techniques of, cell and tissue culture, molecular biology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, and protein and nucleic acid chemistry and hybridization described herein are those that are well known and commonly used in the art. The meaning and scope of the terms should be clear; in the event however of any latent ambiguity, definitions provided herein take precedent over any dictionary or extrinsic definition. Further, unless otherwise required by context, singular terms shall include pluralities and plural terms shall include the singular. 2. Modulators of T Cells [00086] Provided herein are modulators of T cells. Modifying or modulating may include increasing or decreasing, for example. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods comprise an agent that increases T cells.

The compositions and methods detailed herein may engineer or modify the gene expression programs within T cells by engineering the T cells directly. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods comprise an agent that increases expression or activity of CD103 or IL7Ra, or a combination thereof, in T cells. IL7Ra may comprise an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 193, encoded by a polynucleotide comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 194.

Expression or activity of CD103 or IL7Ra, or a combination thereof, may each be increased by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. Expression or activity of CD103 or IL7Ra, or a combination thereof, may each be increased by about 5- 95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods comprise an agent that decreases expression or activity of CCR7 and/or TOX in T cells. Expression of a marker, such as IL7Ra or CD103, may be done by any suitable means in the art, including, for example, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, FACS, DNA or RNA sequencing, and hybridization of reporters or probes to RNA transcripts. [00087] The modulator of T cells may target a gene or a regulatory element thereof. Regulatory elements include, for example, promoters and enhancers. Regulatory elements may be within 1000 base pairs of the transcription start site. Regulatory elements may be within 600 base pairs of the transcription start site. The agent, or the composition or the method comprising the agent, may modify the expression of a gene. For example, the agent, or the composition or the method comprising the agent, may reduce, inhibit, decrease, activate, increase, or enhance the expression or activity of a gene or its gene protein product. The agent, or the composition or the method comprising the agent, may directly or indirectly modulate the activity of the gene’s protein product. For example, the modulator of T cells may increase or decrease the binding or enzymatic activity of the gene’s protein product, or inhibit the binding of the gene’s protein product to another molecule or ligand, or increase the binding of the gene’s protein product to another molecule or ligand, or increase or decrease the degradation of the gene’s protein product, or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the transcription factor is TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, or CARF, or a regulatory element thereof, or a region thereof, or a combination thereof. [00089] As an activator, an agent may activate or enhance expression or activity of a gene or gene protein product to increase T cells. The activator may increase the level of polynucleotide encoding the gene or encoding the gene product. The activator may increase the level of transcription of a polynucleotide encoding the gene or encoding the gene product. The activator may increase the level of translation of a mRNA encoding the gene product. The activator may increase the expression of protein encoded by the gene or the open reading frame thereof. The activator may increase the level or amount of protein expressed from the gene. The activator may increase the level or amount of protein expressed from the open reading frame of the gene. [00090] The agent may comprise, for example, a polynucleotide, a polypeptide, a small molecule, a lipid, a carbohydrate, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the agent comprises a polynucleotide. The agent may comprise a polynucleotide encoding the gene or a fragment thereof. The agent may comprise a polynucleotide comprising a cDNA of the gene or a fragment thereof. For example, the polynucleotide may comprise a sequence selected from SEQ ID NOs: 75-97, or a fragment thereof. The polynucleotide may comprise a sequence having at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95%, or at least 98%, or greater identity to a sequence selected from SEQ ID NOs: 75- 97, or a fragment thereof.

[00092] Examples of genes for modulating T cells are shown in TABLE 1 and TABLE 2.

[00093] T cells may be modulated by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be modulated by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7- fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be modulated by about 5- 95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be reduced by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7- fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be reduced by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be reduced by about 5-95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be increased by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be increased by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. T cells may be increased by about 5-95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. [00094] In some embodiments, the modulator of T cells is administered with or as a therapy such as cancer therapy. In some embodiments, the modulator of T cells is used to modify a T cell that is then or later administered with or used as a cancer therapy. Accordingly, further provided herein is a T cell modified by an activator as detailed herein. The T cell may be modified in vitro or ex vivo or in vivo. A T cell modified by an activator as detailed herein may be administered to a subject. The cancer therapy may include chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The cancer therapy may include adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) therapy. The cancer therapy may include a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). For example, a modulator of T cells as detailed herein may be used to modify a CAR T cell to generate a modified or engineered CAR T cell. Further provided herein is a T cell modified by an activator as detailed herein, which is then or later modified to generate a CAR T cell. A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) may also be known as chimeric immunoreceptor, chimeric T cell receptor, or artificial T cell receptor. CARs are receptor proteins that have been engineered to give T cells the new ability to target a specific antigen. CARs are chimeric in that they may combine both antigen-binding and T cell activating functions into a single receptor. CARs may include an antigen binding domain specific for an antigen on a cancer cell. The premise of CAR T immunotherapy is to modify T cells to recognize cancer cells in order to target and destroy them. T cells are harvested from a subject, the T cells are genetically altered to add a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that specifically recognizes cancer cells, and the resulting CAR T cells may be administered to the subject to attack their tumors. CAR T cell therapy and modification to T cells are described in, for example, WO2012/079000 and WO2012/129514 and WO2018/005712, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [00095] The cancer therapy may include a T cell receptor (TCR) therapy. A modulator of T cells as detailed herein may be used to modify a T cell to generate a modified or engineered T cell for use in TCR therapy. Like CAR T cell therapy, TCR therapy involves the modification of T cells. However, unlike CAR T cell therapy, which may use man-made receptors that targets antigens on the surface of cells, TCR therapy capitalizes on the natural mechanisms of T cells. Unlike hematological cancer, solid tumors lack cell surface antigens to be recognized by typical CARs. Intracellular antigens from solid tumors may be presented by HLA molecules as HLA-antigen epitope complexes on the cell surface, which may be specifically recognized by TCRs on the surface of tumor-specific T cells, thereby eliciting anti-tumor cytotoxicity by the tumor-specific T cells. TCR therapies may include transformed T cells expressing at least one vector encoding a TCR that is capable of binding to an HLA molecule and antigen on tumor cells. TCR therapy and modification to T cells are described in, for example, WO2019/196088, WO2019/196924, U.S. Patent No.10,889,629, and WO2020/223537, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [00096] In some embodiments, the modulator of T cells, or the resulting modified T cell, is administered concurrently with a cancer therapy, or subsequent to a cancer therapy, or prior to a cancer therapy, or as a cancer therapy. a. DNA Targeting Systems [00097] In some embodiments, the agent comprises a DNA targeting composition or at least one component thereof. A “DNA Targeting System” as used herein is a system capable of specifically targeting a particular region of DNA and modulating gene expression by binding to that region. Non-limiting examples of these systems are CRISPR-Cas-based systems, meganucleases, zinc finger (ZF)-based systems, and/or transcription activator-like effector (TALE)-based systems. The DNA Targeting System may be a nuclease system that acts through mutating or editing the target region (such as by insertion, deletion or substitution) or it may be a system that delivers a functional second polypeptide domain, such as an activator or repressor, to the target region. [00098] Each of these systems comprises a DNA-binding portion or domain, such as a Cas protein and guide RNA, or a meganuclease, or a ZF, or a TALE, that specifically recognizes and binds to a particular target region of a target DNA. The DNA-binding portion (for example, Cas protein, ZF, or TALE) can be linked to a second protein domain, such as a polypeptide with transcription activation activity, transcription repression activity, transcription release factor activity, histone modification activity, nuclease activity, nucleic acid association activity, methylase activity, demethylase activity, acetylation activity, or deacetylation activity, to form a fusion protein. Exemplary second polypeptide domains are detailed further below (see “Cas Fusion Protein”). For example, the DNA-binding portion can be linked to an activator and thus guide the activator to a specific target region of the target DNA. Similarly, the DNA-binding portion can be linked to a repressor and thus guide the repressor to a specific target region of the target DNA. [00099] In some embodiments, the DNA targeting composition comprises a meganuclease. A meganuclease is an endodeoxyribonuclease characterized by a large recognition site, such as double-stranded DNA sequences of 12 to 40 base pairs. The recognition site may occur only once in any given genome. A meganuclease may be a homing endonuclease selected from an intron endonuclease or an intein endonuclease. Meganucleases may include, for example, the LAGLIDADG family of homing endonucleases. [000100] In some embodiments, the DNA-binding portion comprises a Cas protein, such as a Cas9 protein. Some CRISPR-Cas-based systems can operate to activate or repress expression using the Cas protein alone, not linked to an activator or repressor. For example, a nuclease-null Cas9 can act as a repressor on its own, a nuclease-active Cas9 can act as a repressor on its own, or a nuclease-active Cas9 can act as an activator when paired with an inactive (dead) guide RNA. In addition, RNA or DNA that hybridizes to a particular target region of the target DNA can be directly linked (covalently or non-covalently) to an activator or repressor. Some CRISPR-Cas-based systems can operate to activate or repress expression using the Cas protein linked to a second protein domain, such as, for example, an activator or repressor. i) DNA Binding Protein [000101] The DNA Targeting System may include a DNA binding protein. The DNA binding protein may comprise, for example, a zinc finger protein or a transcription activator- like effector (TALE). The zinc finger protein or TALE may target a gene selected fromTGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1, or a regulatory element thereof. (1) Zinc Finger Protein [000102] A zinc finger protein is a protein that includes one or more zinc finger domains. Zinc finger domains are relatively small protein motifs that contain multiple finger-like protrusions that make tandem contacts with their target molecule such as a DNA target molecule. A zinc finger domain may bind one or more zinc ions or other metal ion such as iron, or in some cases a zinc finger domain forms salt bridges to stabilize the finger-like folds. The zinc binding portion of a zinc finger protein may include one or more cysteine residues and/or one or more histidine residues to coordinate the zinc or other metal ion. A zinc finger protein recognizes and binds to a particular DNA sequence via the zinc finger domain. In some embodiments, a zinc finger protein is fused to or includes a nuclease domain and may be referred to as a zinc finger nuclease (ZFN). The nuclease domain may include, for example, the endonuclease FokI. ZFNs may recognize target sites that consist of two zinc-finger binding sites that flank a 5- to 7-base pair (bp) spacer sequence recognized by the endonuclease FokI cleavage domain. (2) Transcription Activator-like Effector (TALE) [000103] A TALE is another type of protein that recognizes and binds to a particular DNA sequence. The DNA-binding domain of a TALE includes an array of tandem 33-35 amino acid repeats, also known as RVD modules. Each RVD module specifically recognizes a single base pair of DNA. RVD modules may be arranged in any order to assemble an array that recognizes a defined DNA sequence. The binding specificity of a TALE DNA-binding domain is determined by the RVD array followed by a single truncated repeat of, for example, 20 amino acids. A TALE DNA-binding domain may have an array of 12 to 27 RVD modules, each RVD module recognizing a single base pair of DNA. Specific RVDs have been identified that recognize each of the four possible DNA nucleotides (A, T, C, and G). Because the TALE DNA-binding domains are modular, repeats that recognize the four different DNA nucleotides may be linked together to recognize any particular DNA sequence. These targeted DNA-binding domains may then be combined with catalytic domains to create functional enzymes, including artificial transcription factors and/or nucleases. In some embodiments, a TALE is fused to or includes a nuclease domain and may be referred to as a TALE nuclease (TALEN). The nuclease domain may include, for example, the endonuclease FokI. TALENs may recognize target sites that consist of two TALE DNA- binding sites that flank a 12-bp to 20-bp spacer sequence recognized by the FokI cleavage domain. (3) DNA Binding Fusion Protein [000104] Additionally or alternatively, a zinc finger protein or TALE can be fused to a polypeptide domain and referred to as a DNA binding fusion protein or fusion protein. The fusion protein may act as a synthetic transcription factor. The fusion protein comprises two heterologous polypeptide domains, including a first polypeptide domain comprising the zinc finger protein or the TALE or a Cas9 protein as further detailed below, and a second polypeptide domain having an activity selected from transcription activation activity, transcription repression activity, nuclease activity, transcription release factor activity, histone modification activity, nucleic acid association activity, methylase activity, and demethylase activity. A zinc finger protein or TALE can be fused to a polypeptide domain having epigenetic modifying activity to mediate targeted gene regulation. A fusion protein comprising a zinc finger protein or TALE, and a second polypeptide domain having transcription repression activity, may mediate targeted gene repression. A fusion protein comprising a zinc finger protein or TALE, and a second polypeptide domain having transcription activation activity, may mediate targeted gene activation. The second polypeptide domain is further detailed below (see “Cas Fusion Protein”). ii) CRISPR/Cas-based Gene Editing System [000105] Provided herein are CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing systems. The CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system may be used to modulate T cells and/or enhance ACT. The CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system may include a Cas protein or a fusion protein, and at least one gRNA, and may also be referred to as a “CRISPR-Cas system.” [000106] “Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats” and “CRISPRs”, as used interchangeably herein, refers to loci containing multiple short direct repeats that are found in the genomes of approximately 40% of sequenced bacteria and 90% of sequenced archaea. The CRISPR system is a microbial nuclease system involved in defense against invading phages and plasmids that provides a form of acquired immunity. The CRISPR loci in microbial hosts contain a combination of CRISPR-associated (Cas) genes as well as non- coding RNA elements capable of programming the specificity of the CRISPR-mediated nucleic acid cleavage. Short segments of foreign DNA, called spacers, are incorporated into the genome between CRISPR repeats, and serve as a “memory” of past exposures. Cas proteins include, for example, Cas12 such as Cas12a, Cas9, Cas13, Cascade proteins, and IscB/TnpB proteins. Cas12a may also be referred to as “Cpf1.” Cas12a causes a staggered cut in double stranded DNA, while Cas9 produces a blunt cut. In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises Cas12a. Cas12a is described in, for example, WO 2018/017754, which is incorporated herein by reference. Cas13 is an RNA-guided RNA endonuclease. Cas13 cleaves single-stranded RNA, and it does not cleave DNA. In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises Cas13. In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises Cas9. Cas9 forms a complex with the 3’ end of the sgRNA (which may be referred interchangeably herein as “gRNA”), and the protein-RNA pair recognizes its genomic target by complementary base pairing between the 5’ end of the gRNA sequence and a predefined 20 bp DNA sequence, known as the protospacer. This complex is directed to homologous loci of pathogen DNA via regions encoded within the crRNA, i.e., the protospacers, and protospacer-adjacent motifs (PAMs) within the pathogen genome. The non-coding CRISPR array is transcribed and cleaved within direct repeats into short crRNAs containing individual spacer sequences, which direct Cas nucleases to the target site (protospacer). By simply exchanging the 20 bp recognition sequence of the expressed gRNA, the Cas9 nuclease can be directed to new genomic targets. CRISPR spacers are used to recognize and silence exogenous genetic elements in a manner analogous to RNAi in eukaryotic organisms. [000107] Three classes of CRISPR systems (Types I, II, and III effector systems) are known. The Type II effector system carries out targeted DNA double-strand break in four sequential steps, using a single effector enzyme, Cas9, to cleave dsDNA. Compared to the Type I and Type III effector systems, which require multiple distinct effectors acting as a complex, the Type II effector system may function in alternative contexts such as eukaryotic cells. The Type II effector system consists of a long preǦcrRNA, which is transcribed from the spacerǦcontaining CRISPR locus, the Cas9 protein, and a tracrRNA, which is involved in pre-crRNA processing. The tracrRNAs hybridize to the repeat regions separating the spacers of the preǦcrRNA, thus initiating dsRNA cleavage by endogenous RNase III. This cleavage is followed by a second cleavage event within each spacer by Cas9, producing mature crRNAs that remain associated with the tracrRNA and Cas9, forming a Cas9:crRNA- tracrRNA complex. Cas12a systems include crRNA for successful targeting, whereas Cas9 systems include both crRNA and tracrRNA. [000108] The Cas9:crRNA-tracrRNA complex unwinds the DNA duplex and searches for sequences matching the crRNA to cleave. Target recognition occurs upon detection of complementarity between a “protospacer” sequence in the target DNA and the remaining spacer sequence in the crRNA. Cas9 mediates cleavage of target DNA if a correct protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) is also present at the 3’ end of the protospacer. For protospacer targeting, the sequence must be immediately followed by the protospacer- adjacent motif (PAM), a short sequence recognized by the Cas9 nuclease that is required for DNA cleavage. Different Cas and Cas Type II systems have differing PAM requirements. For example, Cas12a may function with PAM sequences rich in thymine “T.” [000109] An engineered form of the Type II effector system of S. pyogenes was shown to function in human cells for genome engineering. In this system, the Cas9 protein was directed to genomic target sites by a synthetically reconstituted “guide RNA” (“gRNA”, also used interchangeably herein as a chimeric single guide RNA (“sgRNA”)), which is a crRNA- tracrRNA fusion that obviates the need for RNase III and crRNA processing in general. Provided herein are CRISPR/Cas9-based engineered systems for use in gene editing and treating genetic diseases. The CRISPR/Cas9-based engineered systems can be designed to target any gene, including genes involved in, for example, a genetic disease, aging, tissue regeneration, or wound healing. The CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system can include a Cas9 protein or a Cas9 fusion protein. iii) Cas9 Protein [000110] Cas9 protein is an endonuclease that cleaves nucleic acid and is encoded by the CRISPR loci and is involved in the Type II CRISPR system. The Cas9 protein can be from any bacterial or archaea species, including, but not limited to, Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Acidovorax avenae, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Actinobacillus succinogenes, Actinobacillus suis, Actinomyces sp., cycliphilus denitrificans, Aminomonas paucivorans, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus smithii, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacteroides sp., Blastopirellula marina, Bradyrhizobium sp., Brevibacillus laterosporus, Campylobacter coli, Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter lari, Candidatus Puniceispirillum, Clostridium cellulolyticum, Clostridium perfringens, Corynebacterium accolens, Corynebacterium diphtheria, Corynebacterium matruchotii, Dinoroseobacter shibae, Eubacterium dolichum, gamma proteobacterium, Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Haemophilus sputorum, Helicobacter canadensis, Helicobacter cinaedi, Helicobacter mustelae, Ilyobacter polytropus, Kingella kingae, Lactobacillus crispatus, Listeria ivanovii, Listeria monocytogenes, Listeriaceae bacterium, Methylocystis sp., Methylosinus trichosporium, Mobiluncus mulieris, Neisseria bacilliformis, Neisseria cinerea, Neisseria flavescens, Neisseria lactamica, Neisseria sp., Neisseria wadsworthii, Nitrosomonas sp., Parvibaculum lavamentivorans, Pasteurella multocida, Phascolarctobacterium succinatutens, Ralstonia syzygii, Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Rhodovulum sp., Simonsiella muelleri, Sphingomonas sp., Sporolactobacillus vineae, Staphylococcus lugdunensis, Streptococcus sp., Subdoligranulum sp., Tistrella mobilis, Treponema sp., or Verminephrobacter eiseniae. In certain embodiments, the Cas9 molecule is a Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 molecule (also referred herein as “SpCas9”). SpCas9 may comprise an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 26. In certain embodiments, the Cas9 molecule is a Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 molecule (also referred herein as “SaCas9”). SaCas9 may comprise an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 27. [000111] A Cas9 molecule or a Cas9 fusion protein can interact with one or more gRNA molecule(s) and, in concert with the gRNA molecule(s), can localize to a site which comprises a target domain, and in certain embodiments, a PAM sequence. The Cas9 protein forms a complex with the 3’ end of a gRNA. The ability of a Cas9 molecule or a Cas9 fusion protein to recognize a PAM sequence can be determined, for example, by using a transformation assay as known in the art. [000112] The specificity of the CRISPR-based system may depend on two factors: the target sequence and the protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM). The target sequence is located on the 5’ end of the gRNA and is designed to bond with base pairs on the host DNA at the correct DNA sequence known as the protospacer. By simply exchanging the recognition sequence of the gRNA, the Cas9 protein can be directed to new genomic targets. The PAM sequence is located on the DNA to be altered and is recognized by a Cas9 protein. PAM recognition sequences of the Cas9 protein can be species specific. [000113] In certain embodiments, the ability of a Cas9 molecule or a Cas9 fusion protein to interact with and cleave a target nucleic acid is PAM sequence dependent. A PAM sequence is a sequence in the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, cleavage of the target nucleic acid occurs upstream from the PAM sequence. Cas9 molecules from different bacterial species can recognize different sequence motifs (for example, PAM sequences). A Cas9 molecule of S. pyogenes may recognize the PAM sequence of NRG (5’-NRG-3’, where R is any nucleotide residue, and in some embodiments, R is either A or G, SEQ ID NO: 1). In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. pyogenes may naturally prefer and recognize the sequence motif NGG (SEQ ID NO: 2) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from that sequence. In some embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. pyogenes accepts other PAM sequences, such as NAG (SEQ ID NO: 3) in engineered systems (Hsu et al., Nature Biotechnology 2013 doi:10.1038/nbt.2647, incorporated herein by reference). In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. thermophilus recognizes the sequence motif NGGNG (SEQ ID NO: 4) and/or NNAGAAW (W = A or T) (SEQ ID NO: 5) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from these sequences. In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. mutans recognizes the sequence motif NGG (SEQ ID NO: 2) and/or NAAR (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 6) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5 bp, upstream from this sequence. In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus recognizes the sequence motif NNGRR (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 7) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from that sequence. In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus recognizes the sequence motif NNGRRN (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 8) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from that sequence. In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus recognizes the sequence motif NNGRRT (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 9) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from that sequence. In certain embodiments, a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus recognizes the sequence motif NNGRRV (R = A or G; V = A or C or G) (SEQ ID NO: 10) and directs cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence 1 to 10, for example, 3 to 5, bp upstream from that sequence. A Cas9 molecule derived from Neisseria meningitidis (NmCas9) normally has a native PAM of NNNNGATT (SEQ ID NO: 11), but may have activity across a variety of PAMs, including a highly degenerate NNNNGNNN PAM (SEQ ID NO: 12) (Esvelt et al. Nature Methods 2013 doi:10.1038/nmeth.2681, incorporated herein by reference). In the aforementioned embodiments, N can be any nucleotide residue, for example, any of A, G, C, or T. Cas9 molecules can be engineered to alter the PAM specificity of the Cas9 molecule. [000114] In some embodiments, the Cas9 protein recognizes a PAM sequence NGG (SEQ ID NO: 2) or NGA (SEQ ID NO: 13) or NNNRRT (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 14) or ATTCCT (SEQ ID NO: 15) or NGAN (SEQ ID NO: 16) or NGNG (SEQ ID NO: 17). In some embodiments, the Cas9 protein is a Cas9 protein of S. aureus and recognizes the sequence motif NNGRR (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 7), NNGRRN (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 8), NNGRRT (R = A or G) (SEQ ID NO: 9), or NNGRRV (R = A or G; V = A or C or G) (SEQ ID NO: 10). In the aforementioned embodiments, N can be any nucleotide residue, for example, any of A, G, C, or T. [000115] Additionally or alternatively, a nucleic acid encoding a Cas9 molecule or Cas9 polypeptide may comprise a nuclear localization sequence (NLS). Nuclear localization sequences are known in the art, for example, SV40 NLS (Pro-Lys-Lys-Lys-Arg-Lys-Val; SEQ ID NO: 20). [000116] In some embodiments, the at least one Cas9 molecule is a mutant Cas9 molecule. The Cas9 protein can be mutated so that the nuclease activity is inactivated. An inactivated Cas9 protein (“iCas9”, also referred to as “dCas9”) with no endonuclease activity has been targeted to genes in bacteria, yeast, and human cells by gRNAs to silence gene expression through steric hindrance. Exemplary mutations with reference to the S. pyogenes Cas9 sequence to inactivate the nuclease activity include: D10A, E762A, H840A, N854A, N863A and/or D986A. A S. pyogenes Cas9 protein with the D10A mutation may comprise an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 28. A S. pyogenes Cas9 protein with D10A and H849A mutations may comprise an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29. Exemplary mutations with reference to the S. aureus Cas9 sequence to inactivate the nuclease activity include D10A and N580A. In certain embodiments, the mutant S. aureus Cas9 molecule comprises a D10A mutation. The nucleotide sequence encoding this mutant S. aureus Cas9 is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 30. In certain embodiments, the mutant S. aureus Cas9 molecule comprises a N580A mutation. The nucleotide sequence encoding this mutant S. aureus Cas9 molecule is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 31. [000117] In some embodiments, the Cas9 protein is a VQR variant. The VQR variant of Cas9 is a mutant with a different PAM recognition, as detailed in Kleinstiver, et al. (Nature 2015, 523, 481–485, incorporated herein by reference). [000118] A polynucleotide encoding a Cas9 molecule can be a synthetic polynucleotide. For example, the synthetic polynucleotide can be chemically modified. The synthetic polynucleotide can be codon optimized, for example, at least one non-common codon or less-common codon has been replaced by a common codon. For example, the synthetic polynucleotide can direct the synthesis of an optimized messenger mRNA, for example, optimized for expression in a mammalian expression system, as described herein. An exemplary codon optimized nucleic acid sequence encoding a Cas9 molecule of S. pyogenes is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 32. Exemplary codon optimized nucleic acid sequences encoding a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus, and optionally containing nuclear localization sequences (NLSs), are set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 33-39. Another exemplary codon optimized nucleic acid sequence encoding a Cas9 molecule of S. aureus comprises the nucleotides 1293-4451 of SEQ ID NO: 40. iv) Cas Fusion Protein [000119] Alternatively or additionally, the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system can include a fusion protein. The fusion protein can comprise two heterologous polypeptide domains. The first polypeptide domain comprises a Cas protein or a mutated Cas protein. The first polypeptide domain is fused to at least one second polypeptide domain. The second polypeptide domain has a different activity that what is endogenous to Cas protein. The second polypeptide domain may have any DNA editing activity. The second polypeptide domain may have an activity such as transcription activation activity, transcription repression activity, transcription release factor activity, histone modification activity, nuclease activity, nucleic acid association activity, histone methylase activity, DNA methylase activity, histone demethylase activity, DNA demethylase activity, acetylation activity, and/or deacetylation activity. The activity of the second polypeptide domain may be direct or indirect. The second polypeptide domain may have this activity itself (direct), or it may recruit and/or interact with a polypeptide domain that has this activity (indirect). In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain has transcription activation activity. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain has transcription repression activity. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain comprises a synthetic transcription factor. The second polypeptide domain may be at the C-terminal end of the first polypeptide domain, or at the N-terminal end of the first polypeptide domain, or a combination thereof. The fusion protein may include one second polypeptide domain. In some embodiments, the fusion protein comprises more than one second polypeptide domain. The fusion protein may include two of the second polypeptide domains. For example, the fusion protein may include a second polypeptide domain at the N-terminal end of the first polypeptide domain as well as a second polypeptide domain at the C-terminal end of the first polypeptide domain. In other embodiments, the fusion protein may include a single first polypeptide domain and more than one (for example, two or three) second polypeptide domains in tandem. [000120] The linkage from the first polypeptide domain to the second polypeptide domain can be through reversible or irreversible covalent linkage or through a non-covalent linkage, as long as the linker does not interfere with the function of the second polypeptide domain. For example, a Cas polypeptide can be linked to a second polypeptide domain as part of a fusion protein. As another example, they can be linked through reversible non-covalent interactions such as avidin (or streptavidin)-biotin interaction, histidine-divalent metal ion interaction (such as, Ni, Co, Cu, Fe), interactions between multimerization (such as, dimerization) domains, or glutathione S-transferase (GST)-glutathione interaction. As yet another example, they can be linked covalently but reversibly with linkers such as dibromomaleimide (DBM) or amino-thiol conjugation. [000121] In some embodiments, the fusion protein includes at least one linker. A linker may be included anywhere in the polypeptide sequence of the fusion protein, for example, between the first and second polypeptide domains. A linker may be of any length and design to promote or restrict the mobility of components in the fusion protein. A linker may comprise any amino acid sequence of about 2 to about 100, about 5 to about 80, about 10 to about 60, or about 20 to about 50 amino acids. A linker may comprise an amino acid sequence of at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 amino acids. A linker may comprise an amino acid sequence of less than about 100, 90, 80, 70, 60, 50, or 40 amino acids. A linker may include sequential or tandem repeats of an amino acid sequence that is 2 to 20 amino acids in length. Linkers may include, for example, a GS linker (Gly-Gly-Gly- ^Gly-Ser) _n ^{, wherein n is an integer between 0 and 10 (SEQ ID NO: 21). In a GS linker, n can} be adjusted to optimize the linker length and achieve appropriate separation of the functional domains. Other examples of linkers may include, for example, Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly (SEQ ID NO: 22), Gly-Gly-Ala-Gly-Gly (SEQ ID NO: 23), Gly/Ser rich linkers such as Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly- Ser-Ser-Ser (SEQ ID NO: 24), or Gly/Ala rich linkers such as Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Ala-Ala-Ala (SEQ ID NO: 25). [000122] In some embodiments, the agent and/or Cas protein and/or the Cas fusion protein and/or gRNAs detailed herein may be used in compositions and methods for modulating expression of gene. Modulating may include, for example, increasing or enhancing expression of the gene, or reducing or inhibiting expression of the gene. The expression of the gene may be modulated by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control.

The expression of the gene may be modulated by about 5-95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be reduced by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be reduced by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be reduced by about 5-95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be increased by at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6- fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be increased by less than about 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7- fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, or 10-fold, relative to a control. The expression of the gene may be increased by about 5-95%, 10-90%, 15-85%, 20-80%, or 1.5-fold to 10-fold, relative to a control. In some embodiments, the expression of a gene selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1 is increased. In some embodiments, the expression of a transcription factor selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1 is increased. In some embodiments, the level of a transcription factor protein selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1 is increased. (1) Transcription Activation Activity [000123] The second polypeptide domain can have transcription activation activity, for example, a transactivation domain. For example, gene expression of endogenous mammalian genes, such as human genes, can be achieved by targeting a fusion protein of a first polypeptide domain, such as dCas9, and a transactivation domain to mammalian promoters via combinations of gRNAs. The transactivation domain can include a VP16 protein, multiple VP16 proteins, such as a VP48 domain or VP64 domain, p65 domain of NF kappa B transcription activator activity, TET1, VPR, VPH, Rta, and/or p300. For example, the fusion protein may comprise dCas9-p300. In some embodiments, p300 comprises a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 41 or SEQ ID NO: 42. In other embodiments, the fusion protein comprises dCas9-VP64. In other embodiments, the fusion protein comprises VP64-dCas9-VP64. VP64-dCas9-VP64 may comprise a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 43, encoded by the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO: 44. VPH may comprise a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 53, encoded by the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO: 54. VPR may comprise a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 55, encoded by the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO: 56. (2) Transcription Repression Activity [000124] The second polypeptide domain can have transcription repression activity. Non- limiting examples of repressors include Kruppel associated box activity such as a KRAB domain or KRAB, MECP2, EED, ERF repressor domain (ERD), Mad mSIN3 interaction domain (SID) or Mad-SID repressor domain, SID4X repressor domain, Mxil repressor domain, SUV39H1, SUV39H2, G9A, ESET/SETBD1, Cir4, Su(var)3-9, Pr-SET7/8, SUV4- 20H1, PR-set7, Suv4-20, Set9, EZH2, RIZ1, JMJD2A/JHDM3A, JMJD2B, JMJ2D2C/GASC1, JMJD2D, Rph1, JARID1A/RBP2, JARID1B/PLU-1, JARID1C/SMCX, JARID1D/SMCY, Lid, Jhn2, Jmj2, HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, HDAC8, Rpd3, Hos1, Cir6, HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC7, HDAC9, Hda1, Cir3, SIRT1, SIRT2, Sir2, Hst1, Hst2, Hst3, Hst4, HDAC11, DNMT1, DNMT3a/3b, DNMT3A-3L, MET1, DRM3, ZMET2, CMT1, CMT2, Laminin A, Laminin B, CTCF, and/or a domain having TATA box binding protein activity, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain has a KRAB domain activity, ERF repressor domain activity, Mxil repressor domain activity, SID4X repressor domain activity, Mad-SID repressor domain activity, DNMT3A or DNMT3L or fusion thereof activity, LSD1 histone demethylase activity, or TATA box binding protein activity. In some embodiments, the polypeptide domain comprises KRAB. KRAB may comprise a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 45, encoded by a polynucleotide comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 46. For example, the fusion protein may be S. pyogenes dCas9-KRAB (protein sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 47; polynucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 48). The fusion protein may be S. aureus dCas9-KRAB (protein sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 49; polynucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 50). (3) Transcription Release Factor Activity [000125] The second polypeptide domain can have transcription release factor activity. The second polypeptide domain can have eukaryotic release factor 1 (ERF1) activity or eukaryotic release factor 3 (ERF3) activity. (4) Histone Modification Activity [000126] The second polypeptide domain can have histone modification activity. The second polypeptide domain can have histone deacetylase, histone acetyltransferase, histone demethylase, or histone methyltransferase activity. The histone acetyltransferase may be p300 or CREB-binding protein (CBP) protein, or fragments thereof. For example, the fusion protein may be dCas9-p300. In some embodiments, p300 comprises a polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 41 or SEQ ID NO: 42. (5) Nuclease Activity [000127] The second polypeptide domain can have nuclease activity that is different from the nuclease activity of the Cas9 protein. A nuclease, or a protein having nuclease activity, is an enzyme capable of cleaving the phosphodiester bonds between the nucleotide subunits of nucleic acids. Nucleases are usually further divided into endonucleases and exonucleases, although some of the enzymes may fall in both categories. Well known nucleases include deoxyribonuclease and ribonuclease. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain includes a meganuclease, as detailed above. In some embodiments, the polypeptide domain having nuclease activity comprises FokI. (6) Nucleic Acid Association Activity [000128] The second polypeptide domain can have nucleic acid association activity or nucleic acid binding protein-DNA-binding domain (DBD). A DBD is an independently folded protein domain that contains at least one motif that recognizes double- or single-stranded DNA. A DBD can recognize a specific DNA sequence (a recognition sequence) or have a general affinity to DNA. A nucleic acid association region may be selected from helix-turn- helix region, leucine zipper region, winged helix region, winged helix-turn-helix region, helix- loop-helix region, immunoglobulin fold, B3 domain, Zinc finger, HMG-box, Wor3 domain, and TAL effector DNA-binding domain. (7) Base Editing Activity [000129] The second polypeptide domain may have base editing activity. Base editing enables the direct, irreversible conversion of a specific DNA base into another base at a targeted genomic locus without requiring double-stranded DNA breaks (DSB). A base editing domain has sequence requirements for activity. In a 20 nucleotide protospacer, the target base may be within 4-8 nucleotides from the PAM-distal end. An exemplary splice acceptor is an “AG” immediately before the exon, and an exemplary splice donor is a “GT” immediately following the exon. Cas9 molecules from different species may use different PAMs, and thereby provide some flexibility in selecting the base to edit. Disruption of canonical splice sites can lead to exon skipping or activation of cryptic splice sites. Both adenine and cytosine base editors may be capable of disrupting an “AG” splice acceptor, converting it to either a “GG” or “AA”, respectively. In some embodiments, the base-editing domain includes an adenine base editor (ABE). Adenine base editors may include, for example, ecTadA, including wild-type and mutants thereof. The adenine base editor may be as described in Gaudelli et al. (Nature 2017, 551, 464–471), Koblan et al. (Nature Biotech. 2018, 36, 843–846), Richter et al. (Nature Biotech.2020, 38, 883–891), and Gaudelli et al. (Nature Biotech.2020, 38, 892–900), each of which is incorporated herein by reference. The ABE may comprise a polypeptide selected from SEQ ID NOs: 57-64 and/or be encoded by a polynucleotide comprising a sequence selected from SEQ ID NOs: 65-72, respectively. In some embodiments, the base-editing domain includes a cytidine deaminase domain. A cytidine deaminase domain can convert the DNA base cytosine to uracil. In some embodiments, the cytidine deaminase domain can include an apolipoprotein B mRNA- editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like (APOBEC) family deaminase. In some embodiments, the cytidine deaminase domain can include an APOBEC 1 deaminase, APOBEC2 deaminase, APOBEC3A deaminase, APOBEC3B deaminase, APOBEC3C deaminase, APOBEC3D deaminase, APOBEC3F deaminase, APOBEC3G deaminase, APOBEC3H deaminase, or a combination thereof. Base editing domains are detailed in, for example, WO 2020/210776 and WO 2022/081612, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. (8) Methylase Activity [000130] The second polypeptide domain can have methylase activity, which involves transferring a methyl group to DNA, RNA, protein, small molecule, cytosine, or adenine. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain includes a DNA methyltransferase. (9) Demethylase Activity [000131] The second polypeptide domain can have demethylase activity. The second polypeptide domain can include an enzyme that removes methyl (CH3-) groups from nucleic acids, proteins (in particular histones), and other molecules. Alternatively, the second polypeptide can convert the methyl group to hydroxymethylcytosine in a mechanism for demethylating DNA. The second polypeptide can catalyze this reaction. For example, the second polypeptide that catalyzes this reaction can be Tet1, also known as Tet1CD (Ten- eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 1; amino acid sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 51; polynucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 52). In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain has histone demethylase activity. In some embodiments, the second polypeptide domain has DNA demethylase activity. v) Guide RNA (gRNA) [000132] The CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system includes at least one gRNA molecule. For example, the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system may include two gRNA molecules. The at least one gRNA molecule can bind and recognize a target region. The gRNA is the part of the CRISPR-Cas system that provides DNA targeting specificity to the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system. The gRNA is a fusion of two noncoding RNAs: a crRNA and a tracrRNA. gRNA mimics the naturally occurring crRNA:tracrRNA duplex involved in the Type II Effector system. This duplex, which may include, for example, a 42- nucleotide crRNA and a 75-nucleotide tracrRNA, acts as a guide for the Cas9 to bind, and in some cases, cleave the target nucleic acid. The gRNA may target any desired DNA sequence by exchanging the sequence encoding a 20 bp protospacer which confers targeting specificity through complementary base pairing with the desired DNA target. The “target region” or “target sequence” or “protospacer” refers to the region of the target gene to which the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system targets and binds. The portion of the gRNA that targets the target sequence in the genome may be referred to as the “targeting sequence” or “targeting portion” or “targeting domain.” “Protospacer” or “gRNA spacer” may refer to the region of the target gene to which the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system targets and binds; “protospacer” or “gRNA spacer” may also refer to the portion of the gRNA that is complementary to the targeted sequence in the genome. The gRNA may include a gRNA scaffold. A gRNA scaffold facilitates Cas9 binding to the gRNA and may facilitate endonuclease activity. The gRNA scaffold is a polynucleotide sequence that follows the portion of the gRNA corresponding to sequence that the gRNA targets. Together, the gRNA targeting portion and gRNA scaffold form one polynucleotide. The constant region of the gRNA may include the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 19 (RNA), which is encoded by a sequence comprising SEQ ID NO: 18 (DNA). The CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system may include at least one gRNA, wherein the gRNAs target different DNA sequences. The target DNA sequences may be overlapping. The gRNA may comprise at its 5’ end the targeting domain that is sufficiently complementary to the target region to be able to hybridize to, for example, about 10 to about 20 nucleotides of the target region of the target gene, when it is followed by an appropriate Protospacer Adjacent Motif (PAM). The target region or protospacer is followed by a PAM sequence at the 3’ end of the protospacer in the genome. Different Type II systems have differing PAM requirements, as detailed above. [000133] The targeting domain of the gRNA does not need to be perfectly complementary to the target region of the target DNA. In some embodiments, the targeting domain of the gRNA is at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or at least 99% complementary to (or has 1, 2 or 3 mismatches compared to) the target region over a length of, such as, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 nucleotides. For example, the DNA-targeting domain of the gRNA may be at least 80% complementary over at least 18 nucleotides of the target region. The target region may be on either strand of the target DNA. [000134] The gRNA may target the Cas9 protein or fusion protein to a gene or a regulatory element thereof. The gRNA may target the Cas protein or fusion protein to a non-open chromatin region, an open chromatin region, a transcribed region of the target gene, a region upstream of a transcription start site of the target gene, a regulatory element of the target gene, an intron of the target gene, or an exon of the target gene, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the gRNA targets the Cas9 protein or fusion protein to a promoter of a gene. In some embodiments, the target region is located between about 1 to about 1000 base pairs upstream of a transcription start site of a target gene. In some embodiments, the DNA targeting composition comprises two or more gRNAs, each gRNA binding to a different target region. [000135] The gRNA may target a region of a gene that modulates T cells. The gRNA may target a region of a gene encoding a transcription factor that modulates T cells. The gRNA may target a region of a gene selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1, or a combination thereof, or a regulatory element thereof. The gRNA may target a region of a gene selected from TGIF2LX_1, TGIF1_3, TGIF2_1, FOS_2, HNF4A_1, HNF4A_3, HNF4A_5, HNF4A_6, KLF8_2, NFKBIZ_2, CARF_1, EBF3_1, HMX3_1, LHX4_1, LMX1A_1, PLAG1_2, PLAGL1_2, POU2F3_2, SOX14_1, SOX14_2, TFAP2D_1, WT1_1, and WT1_5, or a combination thereof, or a regulatory element thereof. The gRNA may target a region of TGIF2LX, or a regulatory element thereof. In some embodiments, the gRNA targets a gene and is used in combination with a Cas9 fusion protein wherein the second polypeptide domain has transcription activation activity, to activate or enhance expression of the gene to increase T cells. In some embodiments, the gRNA targets a gene and is used in combination with a Cas9 fusion protein wherein the second polypeptide domain has transcription repression activity, to inhibit or reduce or decrease expression of the gene to increase T cells.

The gRNA may be encoded by a polynucleotide sequence comprising at least one of SEQ ID NOs: 121-156, or a complement thereof, or a variant thereof, or a truncation thereof. The gRNA may bind and target a polynucleotide sequence comprising at least one of SEQ ID NOs: 121-156, or a complement thereof, or a variant thereof, or a truncation thereof. A truncation may be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 nucleotides shorter than the sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 121-192. The gRNA may be used, for example, in a CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system with dCas9, such as a fusion protein comprising dCas9 with VP64 or p300. Exemplary gRNA sequences for modulating T cells are shown in TABLE 3.

[000136] As described above, the gRNA molecule comprises a targeting domain (also referred to as targeted or targeting sequence), which is a polynucleotide sequence complementary to the target DNA sequence.

Site-specific double-strand breaks are created when the CRISPR/Cas9- based gene editing system binds to a target DNA sequences, thereby permitting cleavage of the target DNA. This DNA cleavage may stimulate the natural DNA-repair machinery, leading to one of two possible repair pathways: homology-directed repair (HDR) or the non- homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway. (1) Homology-Directed Repair (HDR) [000139] Restoration of protein expression from a gene may involve homology-directed repair (HDR). A donor template may be administered to a cell. A donor sequence comprises a polynucleotide sequence to be inserted into a genome. The donor template may include a nucleotide sequence encoding a full-functional protein or a partially functional protein. In such embodiments, the donor template may include fully functional gene construct for restoring a mutant gene, or a fragment of the gene that after homology-directed repair, leads to restoration of the mutant gene. In other embodiments, the donor template may include a nucleotide sequence encoding a mutated version of an inhibitory regulatory element of a gene. Mutations may include, for example, nucleotide substitutions, insertions, deletions, or a combination thereof. In such embodiments, introduced mutation(s) into the inhibitory regulatory element of the gene may reduce the transcription of or binding to the inhibitory regulatory element. (2) Non-Homologous End Joining (NHEJ) [000140] Restoration of protein expression from gene may be through template-free NHEJ- mediated DNA repair. In certain embodiments, NHEJ is a nuclease mediated NHEJ, which in certain embodiments, refers to NHEJ that is initiated a Cas9 molecule that cuts double stranded DNA. The method comprises administering a presently disclosed CRISPR/Cas9- based gene editing system or a composition comprising thereof to a subject for gene editing. [000141] Nuclease mediated NHEJ may correct a mutated target gene and offer several potential advantages over the HDR pathway. For example, NHEJ does not require a donor template, which may cause nonspecific insertional mutagenesis. In contrast to HDR, NHEJ operates efficiently in all stages of the cell cycle and therefore may be effectively exploited in both cycling and post-mitotic cells, such as muscle fibers. This provides a robust, permanent gene restoration alternative to oligonucleotide-based exon skipping or pharmacologic forced read-through of stop codons and could theoretically require as few as one drug treatment. 3. Genetic Constructs [000142] The transcription factor, such as one selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, FOS, HNF4A, KLF8, NFKBIZ, CARF, EBF3, HMX3, LHX4, LMX1A, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1, may be encoded by one or more genetic constructs.

[000144] The genetic construct may comprise heterologous nucleic acid encoding the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system and may further comprise an initiation codon, which may be upstream of the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas- based gene editing system coding sequence, and a stop codon, which may be downstream of the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system coding sequence. The genetic construct may include more than one stop codon, which may be downstream of the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system coding sequence. In some embodiments, the genetic construct includes 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 stop codons. In some embodiments, the genetic construct includes 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 stop codons downstream of the sequence encoding the donor sequence. A stop codon may be in-frame with a coding sequence in the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system. For example, one or more stop codons may be in-frame with the donor sequence. The genetic construct may include one or more stop codons that are out of frame of a coding sequence in the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system. For example, one stop codon may be in-frame with the donor sequence, and two other stop codons may be included that are in the other two possible reading frames. A genetic construct may include a stop codon for all three potential reading frames. The initiation and termination codon may be in frame with the transcription factor or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system coding sequence. [000145] The vector may also comprise a promoter that is operably linked to the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system coding sequence.

The promoter may be a cell-specific promoter. For example, the promoter may be a promoter specific for T cells. The promoter may be a tissue-specific promoter. The tissue specific promoter may be a muscle specific promoter. The tissue specific promoter may be a skin specific promoter. The transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas- based gene editing system may be under the light-inducible or chemically inducible control to enable the dynamic control of gene/genome editing in space and time. The promoter operably linked to the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system coding sequence may be a promoter from simian virus 40 (SV40), a mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter, a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) promoter such as the bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter, a Moloney virus promoter, an avian leukosis virus (ALV) promoter, a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter such as the CMV immediate early promoter, Epstein Barr virus (EBV) promoter, or a Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter.

Examples of a tissue specific promoter, such as a muscle or skin specific promoter, natural or synthetic, are described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US20040175727, the contents of which are incorporated herein in its entirety. The promoter may be a CK8 promoter, a Spc512 promoter, a MHCK7 promoter, for example. [000146] The genetic construct may also comprise a polyadenylation signal, which may be downstream of the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system. The polyadenylation signal may be a SV40 polyadenylation signal, LTR polyadenylation signal, bovine growth hormone (bGH) polyadenylation signal, human growth hormone (hGH) polyadenylation signal, or human ȕ-globin polyadenylation signal. The SV40 polyadenylation signal may be a polyadenylation signal from a pCEP4 vector (Invitrogen, San Diego, CA). [000147] Coding sequences in the genetic construct may be optimized for stability and high levels of expression. In some instances, codons are selected to reduce secondary structure formation of the RNA such as that formed due to intramolecular bonding. [000148] The genetic construct may also comprise an enhancer upstream of the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing system or gRNAs. The enhancer may be necessary for DNA expression. The enhancer may be human actin, human myosin, human hemoglobin, human muscle creatine or a viral enhancer such as one from CMV, HA, RSV, or EBV. Polynucleotide function enhancers are described in U.S. Patent Nos.5,593,972, 5,962,428, and WO94/016737, the contents of each are fully incorporated by reference. The genetic construct may also comprise a mammalian origin of replication in order to maintain the vector extrachromosomally and produce multiple copies of the vector in a cell. The genetic construct may also comprise a regulatory sequence, which may be well suited for gene expression in a mammalian or human cell into which the vector is administered.

Viral Vectors [000151] A genetic construct may be a viral vector. Further provided herein is a viral delivery system. Viral delivery systems may include, for example, lentivirus, retrovirus, adenovirus, mRNA electroporation, or nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the vector is a lentiviral vector. Lentiviruses are a subclass of Retroviruses. Lentiviruses resemble Ȗ- retroviruses (Ȗ-RV) in their ability to stably integrate into the target cell genome, resulting in persistent expression of the gene of interest. Species of lentivirus include, for example, human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1), human immunodeficiency virus 2 (HIV-2), simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV), and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). In some embodiments, the vector is a modified lentiviral vector. In some embodiments, the vector is an engineered lentiviral vector. Lentiviruses may include, for example, pseudo-type lentivirus, integrase-deficient lentivirus, and virus-like particles. In some embodiments, the viral vector is an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector. The AAV vector is a small virus belonging to the genus Dependovirus of the Parvoviridae family that infects humans and some other primate species. [000152] Viral vectors may be used to deliver the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing systems using various construct configurations. For example, AAV vectors may deliver Cas9 or fusion protein and gRNA expression cassettes on separate vectors or on the same vector. Alternatively, if the small Cas9 proteins or fusion proteins, derived from species such as Staphylococcus aureus or Neisseria meningitidis, are used then both the Cas9 and up to two gRNA expression cassettes may be combined in a single AAV vector. In some embodiments, the AAV vector has a 4.7 kb packaging limit. [000153] In some embodiments, the AAV vector is a modified AAV vector. In some embodiments, the AAV vector is an engineered AAV vector. The AAV vector may include an engineered AAV capsid. The AAV vector may be an engineered AAV vector for a specific cell type. For example, the AAV vector may be an engineered AAV vector for T cells. The modified AAV vector may have enhanced cell type tropism. The modified AAV vector may have enhanced cardiac and/or skeletal muscle tissue tropism. The modified AAV vector may be capable of delivering and expressing the transcription factor coding sequence or the CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing system in the cell of a mammal. For example, the modified AAV vector may be an AAV-SASTG vector (Piacentino et al. Human Gene Therapy 2012, 23, 635–646, incorporated herein by reference). The modified AAV vector may be based on one or more of several capsid types, including AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, and AAV9. The modified AAV vector may be based on AAV2 pseudotype with alternative muscle-tropic AAV capsids, such as AAV2/1, AAV2/6, AAV2/7, AAV2/8, AAV2/9, AAV2.5, and AAV/SASTG vectors that efficiently transduce skeletal muscle or cardiac muscle by systemic and local delivery (Seto et al. Current Gene Therapy 2012, 12, 139-151, incorporated herein by reference). The modified AAV vector may be AAV2i8G9 (Shen et al. J. Biol. Chem.2013, 288, 28814-28823, incorporated herein by reference). 4.

The present disclosure has multiple aspects and embodiments, illustrated by the appended non-limiting examples. Example 1 Materials and Methods [000176] Culturing primary human T cells. Human T cells were isolated from frozen peripheral blood mononuclear cells using negative selection kits or pre-isolated cells purchased directly. T cells were activated using CD3/CD28 dynabeads at a 3:1 bead:cell ratio. Cells were cultured in Immunocult-XF medium supplemented with 1% penicillin/streptomycin and 100 IU/mL rh-IL2. [000177] Lentivirus generation and human primary T cell transduction.7 x 10⁶ HEK293T cells were plated in a 10 cm dish in the afternoon with 12 mL of complete opti- MEM (Opti-MEM™ I Reduced Serum Medium supplemented with 1x Glutamax, 5% FBS, 1 mM Sodium Pyruvate, and 1x MEM Non-Essential Amino Acids). The next morning, HEK293T cells were transfected with 3.25 ^g pMD2.G, 9.75 ^g psPAX2, and 4.3 ^g transgene using Lipofectamine 3000. Media was exchanged 6 hours after transfection, and lentiviral supernatant was collected and pooled at 24 hours and 48 hours after transfection. Collected lentivirus was centrifuged at 500g for 10 min to remove cellular debris. Supernatant was concentrated 100X using Lenti-X concentrator. Concentrated lentivirus was snap frozen and stored at -80°C until use. Human primary T cells were transduced 24 hours post activation with 10% v/v concentrated lentivirus. [000178] cDNA overexpression screens. Human primary CD8+ T cells were activated using dynabeads as described above. 24 hours post-activation, T cells were transduced with lentivirus encoding a library of human transcription factors (PMID: 36608654; Joung et al. Cell 2023, 186, 209-229, incorporated herein by reference). Cells were expanded for at least 7 days at which point they were collected for sorting. For the IL7Ra screen, the top and bottom 10% of cells were sorted based on IL7Ra protein levels. For the CD103 screen, CD103+ and CD103- negative populations were sorted. Genomic DNA was isolated using Qiagen’s (Hilden, Germany) DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit from the sorted populations. Transcription factor barcodes were amplified and sequenced as previously described (PMID: 36608654; Joung et al. Cell 2023, 186, 209-229, incorporated herein by reference). Transcription factor barcode read counts were compared across the different groups using DESeq2. Hits were determined as transcription factors with DESeq2 adjusted P values < .05. [000179] Flow cytometry. For antibody staining, cells were spun down at 300g for 5 minutes and resuspended in Cell Staining Buffer (Biolegend, San Diego, CA) with the appropriate antibody dilutions. Cells were stained for 30 minutes on ice in the dark and washed once before sorting or analysis. [000180] RNA sequencing. CAR T cells were incubated with target cells at a 2:1 ratio in Immunocult-XF media unless otherwise indicated. After complete target cell elimination (2 days), cells were washed in fresh media. RNA was isolated using Norgen Biotek’s (Thorold, Ontario, Canada) Total RNA purification plus kit and submitted to Azenta for standard RNA- seq with polyA selection. Gene expression matrices were generated using salmon (v1.10.2) with the GRCh38 genome. Differential gene expression analysis was performed using DESeq2. [000181] scRNA-sequencing. CAR T cells generated from pan T cells were expanded for 7 days. Cells were spun down and resuspended in 49.5 μL cell staining buffer. Fc receptors were blocked by adding 0.5 μL TruStainFcX PLUS and incubating on ice for 10 minutes. 50 μL of additional cell staining buffer was then added. 1 μg of cell hashing antibodies was added to each CAR T population based on perturbation. Cells were incubated on ice for 30 minutes. Afterwards, cells were washed 3X in cell staining buffer and resuspended in 300 μL. Equal cell numbers were then pooled, pelleted, and resuspended at 2e7 cells/mL in cell staining buffer. A 25 μL aliquot of cells was staining with 25 μL of TotalSeq^TM-B Human Universal Cocktail, V1.0 for 30 minutes at 4°C. Stained cells were washed 3X and resuspended in 100 μL PBS with 1% BSA. Diluted cells were loaded onto the Chromium X and captured using the Single Cell 3’ Gene Expression Kit (v3.1). Resulting libraries were sequenced using the Novaseq X. CellRanger (v7.0.0) was used to process and generate UMI matrices. CellBender (v0.3.0) was used to remove noise due to ambient RNA molecules. Cleaned matrices were loaded into Seurat (v5) and subset to include cells with nFeature_RNA > 1800, percent.mt < 10, and nCount_RNA < 50,000. High quality cells were assigned their perturbation (based on cell hashing antibody) using HTODemux. [000182] Multiplex ELISA. HER2-targeting CAR T cells were generated from pan T cells. CAR T cells were incubated with target cells (SKBR3) at a ratio of 4:1 in Immunocult-XF media without rh-IL2 supplementation. 20 hours after incubation, cells were centrifuged to pellet. Supernatant was collected and stored at -80°C. Thawed supernatant was later analyzed using the LEGENDplex^TM Human CD8/NK Panel on a Sony SH800. [000183] In vitro killing assay. CD8 T cells were transduced with lentiviruses encoding either aHER2 CAR T2A-TGIF2LX or aHER2 CAR T2A-THY1.1 and expanded for at least 7 days. The afternoon before assay start, 625 target cells (SKBR3-GFP) were plated into a 96-well plate and allowed to attach overnight. The following day, CAR T cells were collected and diluted to 10 cells/μL in Immunocult-XF with 100 IU/rh-IL2. Media was removed from the target cell plate and replaced with 250 μL CAR T cell suspension resulting in a 4:1 E:T ratio. Plates were imaged on the IncuCyte^® (Sartorius, Göttingen, Germany) S3 every 4 hours for 5 days. GFP-expressing target cells were enumerated and tracked over time using the IncuCyte^® (Sartorius, Göttingen, Germany) Analysis Software. [000184] In vivo tumor model. 500,000 HER2+ HCC1952 were implanted orthotopically into the mammary fat pad of nod/scid mice. CD8 T cells were transduced with lentivirus encoding one of the following constructs: aHER2 CAR-T2A-THY1.1, aHER2 CAR-T2A- TGIFL2X, or aHER2 CAR-T2A-RUNX3, and expanded for 9 days. 500,000 CAR T cells were infused intravenously 21 days after tumor implantation. Immediately before CAR T administration, tumors were measured and mice were randomized into groups. Tumor volumes were tracked based on caliper measurements every 4-6 days. [000185] TGF-b1 incubation. CD8 T cells were activated and transduced 24 hours later with lentivirus encoding either aHER2 CAR T2A-TGIF2LX or aHER2 CAR T2A-THY1.1. One day later, media was replaced with fresh Immunocult-XF supplemented with 100 IU/rhIL2 and 2 ng/mL TGF-b1. Five days later cells were collected and prepared for flow cytometry. Example 2 Resident Memory T Cells for Adoptive Cell Therapy [000186] Memory T cells exhibit distinct functional characteristics depending on their location within the body. Recent advancements have unveiled a significant population of memory T cells residing in non-lymphoid tissues. These resident memory T cells have a role in combating infections, and their abundance has a positive correlation with improved survival rates across many solid tumor types. Resident memory T cells were to be used for adoptive cell therapy (FIG.1 and FIG.2). However, isolating these cells from donor-derived tissues was impractical. Therefore, epigenetic reprogramming of blood-derived T cells towards a tissue resident state was used. [000187] Two cDNA overexpression screens were conducted, using open reading frames (ORFs) encoding all known transcription factors, in primary CD8 T cells to identify genetic regulators of CD103 (a residency marker) and IL7Ra (a memory marker; FIGS.3A-3B, FIG. 14). The intersection of these screens identified the transcription factor TGIF2LX, capable of upregulating both markers (FIGS.4A-4C). The initial activation of naïve T cells by antigen is driven by transcription factors including BATF, IRF-4, and NFAT-AP1. Next, differentiation of the activated cells into KLRG-1^loCD127^hi memory precursor T cells (MPECs) occurs. MPECs can be differentiated into various types of cells depending on antigen levels and disease setting. Effector T cells (Teff cells) that form from MPECs are characterized by high KLRG-1 and effector functions, such as cytokine production, driven in part by the transcription factors T-bet and Blimp-1. Differentiation of MPECs to memory T cells (T_mem cells) occurs following antigen clearance in acute infections and vaccination, and self- renewing T_mem cells use the transcription factors Tcf-1 and Eomes. T_RM cells do not circulate in the body but are rather retained in tissues and are characterized by high CD103 and CD69 expression and low CD127 expression. Additionally, resident memory cells are associated with low KLF-2 and expression of Hobit. Early exhausted cells form during chronic infections and cancer, where an antigen persists. Early exhausted T cells (T_ex cells) are characterized by intermediate expression of PD-1 and low Eomes, with a role for Tcf-1 in a progenitor population. Early T_ex cells give rise to terminally exhausted T cells that are characterized by high expression of PD-1 and eomesodermin (Eomes) and loss of Tcf-1 and loss of the ability to proliferate further upon additional antigen stimulation. Interestingly, this transcription factor is only expressed in male reproductive tissues, although other TGIF family members have been implicated in T cell function (FIGS.5A-5C). FIGS.6A-6E show that TGIF1 is upregulated in early resident memory. FIGS.15A-15B show the TGIF2LX domains that may be responsible for residency reprogramming. [000188] Hits were obtained from two separate marker-based screens (CD103 and IL7Ra). CD103 is a tissue-resident memory marker and IL7Ra is another memory marker. The upregulation of both CD103 and IL7Ra provided greater confidence that the listed transcription factors were skewing towards a more memory-like state. Additionally, upregulation of this combination of markers may gave a distinct phenotype (tissue- residency) from other perturbations previously identified that skew towards circulating T cell phenotypes. Example 3 TGIF2LX Expressing CAR Ts [000189] FIGS.7A-7E show a molecular characterization of transcription factor-engineered chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR Ts). Bulk RNA-sequencing revealed that TGIF2LX overexpression in T cells lead to widespread transcriptional reprogramming, including activation of genes associated with increased tissue residency programs (for example, ITGAE (i.e. CD103), CD69, CXCR6) and decreases in genes associated with circulation programs (e.g. KLF2, S1PR1; FIGS.8A-8J). TGIF2LX-overexpressing T cells were characterized using a multimodal single cell readout, pairing scRNA-seq with a CITE-seq library of 134 unique cell surface markers (FIGS.9A-9G). This demonstrated a distinct cell state with TGIFL2X-overexpressing T cells existing in clusters unique from those containing unenhanced cells. Of note, these cells also clustered separately from T cells overexpressing RUNX3, a transcription factor previously identified to enhance tissue residency and improve tumor control, suggesting a novel axis for controlling tissue residency (FIG.9D). FIGS.10A- 10F show that TGIF2LX increased tissue-residence associated surface markers. FIGS. 11A-11C show that CD8 subpopulations mirrored memory to effector hierarchy. FIGS.12A- 12E show that TGIF2LX CAR Ts maintained cytotoxic capabilities in vitro. [000190] A proliferation-based cDNA overexpression screen in CD8 T cells was completed. A library of about 3,500 transcription factors was introduced into HER2-targeting CAR Ts. The CAR Ts were repeatedly stimulated with cancer cells to induce exhaustion. CAR Ts were collected before and after repeated stimulation to identify transcription factors that modulate CAR T abundance with the hypothesis that transcription factors that increase CAR T durability will be more highly represented at the end of the screen. [000191] A marker-based cDNA overexpression screen in CD8 T cells was completed. The same library as above was introduced into HER2-targeting CAR Ts. The CAR Ts were expanded for 10 days at which point, CD103 high cells were collected as well as an unsorted population. The goal was to identify transcription factors that increase expression of CD103. CD103 is a tissue-resident memory T cell marker, and these cells are associated with improved survival in the context of checkpoint inhibitors. Example 4 TGIF2LX Overexpression Modulates CAR T Efficacy in a Human Breast Cancer Model [000192] The effect of TGIF2LX overexpression in modulating CAR T efficacy in a human breast cancer xenograft model was also tested. The protocol shown in FIG.13A was used. HCC1954 breast cancer cells were implanted orthotopically into the mammary fat of Nod/scid mice. After 10 days, HER2-targeting CAR T cells were administered intravenously at a sub-curative dose (5x10⁵ cells). TGIF2LX-overexpression dramatically improved tumor control by CAR T cells relative to the unmodified control and RUNX3-overexpressing CAR Ts (FIG.13B). These data provided proof-of-concept of a strategy for enhancing adoptive cell therapies for solid tumors. [000193] TGIF2LX overexpression was found to give circulating T cells a tissue-resident- like phenotype. In addition, TGIF2LX overexpression was found to improve tumor control in the breast cancer CAR T xenograft model. The trafficking and effector function of TGIF2LX- overexpressing T cells in tumor and infection models may be examined further.

A dCas9 protein (such as dSpCas9) will be fused to an activation domain, such as at least one domain of VP64, p300, or p300 core. The resulting fusion protein may be VP64-dCas9-VP64 (SEQ ID NO: 43). T cells will be transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding the fusion protein such as VP64- dCas9-VP64 and a gRNA targeting a gene selected from TGIF2LX, TGIF1, TGIF2, CARF, EBF3, FOS, HMX3, HNF4A, KLF8, LHX4, LMX1A, NFKBIZ, PLAG1, PLAGL1, POU2F3, SOX14, TFAP2D, and WT1. Exemplary gRNAs are shown in TABLE 3. The transduced T cells will be assayed for CD103 and IL7Ra protein levels (via FACS) and transcriptomic changes (via bulk RNA-seq), as described in Example 5. The transduced cells will show increased CD103 and IL7Ra expression, decreased circulatory marker expression, and increased tissue residency marker expression. *** [000195] The foregoing description of the specific aspects will so fully reveal the general nature of the invention that others can, by applying knowledge within the skill of the art, readily modify and/or adapt for various applications such specific aspects, without undue experimentation, without departing from the general concept of the present disclosure.
