Development of a forward-oriented therapeutic lentiviral vector for hemoglobin disorders
Vectors used in gene therapy for hemoglobin disorders carry globin in a reverse-orientation to prevent the loss of key regulatory elements by RNA splicing, but this limits their efficiency. Here, the authors develop a vector carrying β-globin in a forward orientation and show that it has improved ti...
