Correction of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis related phenotypes in induced pluripotent stem cell-derived motor neurons carrying a hexanucleotide expansion mutation in <i>C9orf72</i> by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing using homology-directed repair
2019-12-20
Abstract excerpt
The G4C2 hexanucleotide repeat expansion (HRE) in C9orf72 is the commonest cause of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). A number of different methods have been used to generate isogenic control lines using CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) by deleting the repeat region with the risk of creating indels and genomic instability. In...
