Genome editing of CCR5 by CRISPR-Cas9 in Mauritian cynomolgus macaque embryos
28 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
The discovery that CCR5 serves as an R5-HIV-1 co-receptor, coupled with findings of protection from HIV infection in individuals lacking CCR5, led to the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies for HIV infection based on genome editing of CCR5. Advancing translation of CCR5-mutant-based cellular therapies for HIV requires development of novel physiologically relevant animal models. Mauritian cynomolgus...
