Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: W1282X-CFTR variant (c.3846G>A) is the second most common nonsense cystic fibrosis (CF)-causing mutation in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. Even though remarkable breakthroughs have been done towards CF treatment with the approval of four CFTR protein modulators, none of these are approved for patients with nonsense mutations. CRISPR gene editing tools can be of...
