Abstract excerpt
The emergence of genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 system has opened up new possibilities and significantly improved the potential for long-term gene therapy of beta-thalassemia. In Iran, FSC 36/37 (-T) is one of the most common mutations among affected individuals, with the highest frequency...
