More Information
Summary:Provided herein are compositions for gene modification related to base editor systems, and methods of using the same to treat or prevent conditions associated with the extracellular deposition in various tissues of amyloid fibrils formed by the aggregation of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) proteins. Such conditions include, but are not limited to, polyneuropathy due to hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR-PN) and hereditary cardiomyopathy due to transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR-CM), both associated with autosomal dominant mutations of the TTR gene, and an age-related cardiomyopathy associated with wild-type TTR proteins (ATTRwt), also known as senile cardiac amyloidosis.
