Abstract:

The present disclosure provides materials and methods for treating a patient with one or more conditions or disorders associated with COL7A1 whether ex vivo or in vivo. For example, the present disclosure provides materials and methods for treating a patient with Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB). Also provided are materials and methods for editing a COL7A1 gene in a cell by genome editing. The present disclosure also provides materials and methods for altering the contiguous genomic sequence of a COL7A1 gene in a cell. In addition, the present disclosure provides one or more gRNAs for editing a COL7A1 gene. Also provided are therapeutics comprising at least one or more gRNAs for editing a COL7A1 gene. In addition, the present disclosure provides therapeutics for treating patients with a COL7A1 related condition or disorder.
