Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to the treatment of Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PKD) using the Clustered- Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system. This technology offers the possibility to design an improved single guide RNA (sgRNA), in particular, an improved crRNA to be associated with tracrRNA, which is incorporated into a CRISPR-associated protein (Cas9) to recognize and induce DNA double-strand breaks at a specific target location. DNA double-strand breaks will be repaired by homologous recombination (HR) in the presence of a donor sequence for PKLR gene repair.
