Single AAV-mediated mutation replacement genome editing in limited number of photoreceptors restores vision in mice

Replacing mutant genes with wildtype copies using adeno-associated virus (AAV) has been explored for the treatment of inherited retinopathies, but the low cargo limit restricts its use. Here the authors describe a single AAV platform that allows local replacement of a mutated sequence with its wildt...
