Abstract excerpt
Gene therapy has emerged as a promising curative treatment for β-hemoglobinopathies, the most common genetic disorders worldwide. However, current approved approaches still have some limitations in terms of safety and efficacy. Here, we used highly processive adenine base editor (ABE) variants to precisely correct some of the most prevalent and severe β-thalassemia-causing mutations in the β-globin-encoding HBB...
