CRISPR/Cas9-mediated correction of MITF homozygous point mutation in a Waardenburg syndrome 2A pig model

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated correction of MITF homozygous point mutation in a Waardenburg syndrome 2A pig model

Gene therapy for curing congenital human diseases is promising, but the feasibility and safety need to be further evaluated. In this study, based on a pig model that carries the c.740T>C (L247S) mutation in MITF with an inheritance pattern and clinical pathology that mimics Waardenburg syndrome 2...
