Functional characterization of gene(s) using a transgene approach in a human cell line or in an animal model generally poses limitations due to persistent transgene overexpression. Conversely, the CRISPR/Cas9 geneediting technology enables precise variant(s) introduction in a gene, thus facilitating accurate characterization in human iPSC-derived target cell/tissue. Such editing is generally mediated by non-homologous end joining, the predominant and error-prone double-strand break repair mechanism which mostly results in gene knockout due to indel(s) generation. However, in most cases the best |
