Prоblem 3 Shоwn belоw is аn ideаlizаtion of a column where the length L=32-ft. It is fixed at the bottom and hinged at the top. The column section is W14x90, A992 Steel. The column loads are dead DL=132-kips and the floor live load LL=350-kips. Based on this information answer the following question: Question 3.16: What is the controlling ASD load combination value? [Enter value in kips]

Questiоn 9: Viruses аs Therаpeutics (Dr. A. Disculescu) List twо Prоs- аnd two Cons- of using adeno-associated viral vectors (AAVs) as gene therapy tools compared to adenovirus or lentivirus. Briefly explain the advantages and disadvantages in each case. (4 points) 2. Hereditary blindness can be caused by genetic defects in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, where a continuous supply of 11-cis-retinal chromophore is produced from vitamin A. One of the key components of the visual cycle is the RPE65 protein, an isomerohydrolase that converts all-trans retinyl ester to 11-cis retinol in RPE. In 2017, LUXTURNA™ (voretigene neparvovec-rzyl) from Spark Therapeutics, became the first United States FDA-approved gene therapy product for the eye for the treatment of LCA2 disease, specifically by providing a functional RPE65 gene using an AAV2-CBA-human RPE65 serotype. Provide 2 reasons why the AAV-based RPE65 gene therapy for this disease was relatively easier to develop compared to other inherited disorders. (4 points) 3. Compared to human patients, AAV-viral vector mediated therapy in mouse models of RPE65 deficiency results in robust restoration in retinal function, as determined by electroretinography (ERG) analysis, and preservation of light-sensitive photoreceptor neurons. Select one potential reason for this remarkable success in animal models, from the 2 choices below: (2 points) a. Optimum window of treatment: The AAV-mediated gene therapy in animal models was initiated either before the disease onset, or at early stages of retinal degeneration, when the majority of the photoreceptor neurons were still present. b. AAV viral capsid: A self-complementary AAV vector was used in animal models of RPE65 deficiency, ensuring a faster onset of transgene expression
