CRISPR Activation Enhances In Vitro Potency of AAV Vectors Driven by Tissue-Specific Promoters

Validation of gene transfer vectors containing tissue-specific promoters in cell-based functional assays poses a formidable challenge for gene therapy product development. Here, we describe a novel approach based on CRISPR/dCas9 transcriptional activation to achieve robust transgene expression from...
