Ultevursen
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Ultevursen (QR-421a) is a splice-modulating antisense oligonucleotide targeting exon 13 of the USH2A gene, which restores the functional expression of Usherin protein by inducing exon skipping. Ultevursen binds to USH2A pre-mRNA and modulates the splicing process to specifically skip exon 13 carrying the pathogenic mutation c.2299delG, generating an in-frame transcript and a truncated yet functionally normal protein. Ultevursen exhibits concentration-dependent exon skipping activity in human cells and retinal organoid models, and restores Usherin expression and retinal function in zebrafish and gene-edited mouse models. Ultevursen can be used for related research on type 2 Usher syndrome and non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa.

IC50 & Target
Usherin[1]
In Vitro
Ultevursen induces concentration-dependent USH2A exon 13 skipping in WERI-Rb1 cells[1].
Ultevursen induces concentration-dependent USH2A exon 13 skipping in patient-derived iPSC-derived photoreceptor progenitor cells[1].
Ultevursen (QR-421a) (50 ng; 3 days) delivered as a U7 snRNA skipper induces USH2A exon 13 skipping in stable HEK293T USH2A-eGFP reporter cells, leading to detectable eGFP expression[2].

In Vivo
Ultevursen associated AAV-U7 dual skipper (1 μL viral vector suspension; intratympanic + utricle microinjection; P1-P2 neonatal Ush2a KO-1/KO-1 mice; 16 weeks in vivo incubation period) achieves robust hair cell transduction and mediates sustained Ush2a exon skipping within mouse inner ear tissue[2].
