CRISPR/CAS-RELATED METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS TARGETING VIRUS GENOMES

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to compositions, systems, vectors, and methods for the treatment, prevention, and/or reduction of viral infection and viral infection-related diseases. In particular, the methods disclosed herein involve gene editing approaches using a genome editing system targeting a viral genome, where the expression of at least one component of the gene editing system is regulated by a promoter derived from the targeted viral family, genus, and/or species.
