Abstract excerpt
Severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) is a monogenic disorder. SCN patients are prone to recurrent life-threatening infections. The main causes of SCN are autosomal dominant mutations in the ELANE gene that lead to a block in neutrophil differentiation. In this study, we use CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoproteins and adeno-associated virus (AAV)6 as a donor template delivery system to repair the ELANEL172P mutation in SCN...
