Gene Editing: An Effective Tool for the Future Treatment of Kidney Disease

Abstract excerpt

Gene editing technology involves modifying target genes to alter genetic traits and generate new phenotypes. Beginning with zinc-finger nucleases (ZFN) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALEN), the field has evolved through the advent of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated protein (CRISPR-Cas) systems, and more recently to base editors (BE) and prime...
