Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:A system for genetic editing of a transthyretin (TTR) gene, comprising (i) a Cas12i2 polypeptide or a first nucleic acid encoding the Cas12i2 polypeptide, and (ii) an RNA guide or a second nucleic acid encoding the RNA guide, wherein the RNA guide comprises a spacer sequence specific to a target sequence within an TTR gene. Also provided herein are methods for editing a TTR gene using the gene editing system disclosed herein and/or for treating diseases associated with the TTR gene.
