Therapeutic repair of mutated nucleic acid sequences

Nature Biotechnology
T M Woolf

Abstract

The principle of therapeutic nucleic acid repair has been demonstrated in cell-free and cell culture experiments, in which compounds bind to and repair mutated sequences, thereby treating the primary defects of genetic disease. The mechanisms used to promote repair are diverse, encompassing techniques related to antisense, triple-strand, and ribozymes. Therapeutic nucleic acid repair has the potential to revert mutations to wild type, and therefore is more suitable than traditional gene therapy for treating gain-of-function mutations.

CREs: Gene & Cell Therapy

Gene and cell therapy advances have shown promising outcomes for several diseases. The role of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) is crucial in the design of gene therapy vectors. Here is the latest research on CREs in gene and cell therapy.
