From gRNA Identification to the Restoration of Dystrophin Expression: A Dystrophin Gene Correction Strategy for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Mutations Using the CRISPR-Induced Deletion Method.
DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY: METHODS AND PROTOCOLS(2018)
摘要
The discovery of the CRISPR-Cas9 system raises hope for the treatment of many genetic disorders. We describe here an approach based on the use of a pair of single guide RNAs to form a hybrid exon that does not only restore the dystrophin gene reading frame but also results in the production of a dystrophin protein with an adequate structure of the central rod-domain, with a correct spectrin-like repeat. The therapeutic approach described here involved DMD patient cells having a deletion of exons 51-53 of the DMD gene.
