METHODS OF EDITING A DISEASE-ASSOCIATED GENE USING ADENOSINE DEAMINASE BASE EDITORS, INCLUDING FOR THE TREATMENT OF GENETIC DISEASE

摘要

The invention provides compositions comprising novel programmable adenosine base editor systems (e.g., ABE8) that provide methods of treating a disease or disorder, (e.g., Parkinson's disease, Hurler syndrome, Rett syndrome, or Stargardt disease) in a subject by administering to the subject a programmable adenosine base editor system (e.g., ABE8) that have increased efficiency and methods of using these adenosine deaminase variants for editing a disease-associated gene.
