Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides novel synthetic nucleic acids and recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) comprising the same, as well as methods of their use in the treatment of muscular dystrophies associated with a dystrophin mutation. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a novel synthetic nucleic acid or rAAV of the invention, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising an rAAV of the invention may be useful in gene therapy for the treatment of dystrophin-associated muscular dystrophies, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), and X-linked cardiomyopathy.
