Engineered Nucleases and Trinucleotide Repeat Diseases,late gene function and heritable traits in a number of species including human. Mutations at a subset of repeats, most of which are trinucleotide repeats, trigger devastating human neurological and skeletal disorders. In particular, at least a dozen neurological disorders share a common etiology—the

Using Engineered Nucleases to Create HIV-Resistant Cells, treatments, which require life-long adherence to antiretroviral drug regimens. Engineered nucleases have the capability to either disrupt a specific gene, or to promote precise gene edits or additions at the targeted gene. As one application for the gene disruption capabilities of the nucleases, HI

Strategies to Determine Off-Target Effects of Engineered Nucleases,e-induced DNA breaks by either non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homology-directed repair (HDR) allows genome editing in a wide range of organisms and cell lines. However, if a nuclease cleaves at genomic locations other than the intended target, known as “off-target sites”, it can lead to mutati
