CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene disruption of endogenous co-receptors confers broad resistance to HIV-1 in human primary cells and humanized mice
2021-06-30
Abstract excerpt
In this project, we investigated the CRISPR/Cas9 system for creating HIV resistance by targeting the human CCR5 and CXCR4 genes, which encode cellular co-receptors required for HIV-1 infection. Using a clinically scalable system for transient ex vivo delivery of Cas9/gRNA ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes, we demonstrated that CRISPR-mediated disruption of CCR5 and CXCR4 in T-lymphocytes cells significantly r...
