CRISPR-Cas13b-mediated suppression of HBV replication and protein expression
28 May 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: New antiviral approaches that target multiple aspects of the HBV replication cycle to improve rates of functional cure are urgently required. HBV RNA represents a novel therapeutic target. Here, we programmed CRISPR-Cas13b endonuclease to specifically target the HBV pregenomic RNA and viral mRNAs in a novel approach to reduce HBV replication and protein expression. METHODS: Cas13b CRISPR RNAs...
