Start codon disruption with CRISPR/Cas9 prevents murine Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy

A missense mutation of collagen type VIII alpha 2 chain (COL8A2) gene leads to early-onset Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), which progressively impairs vision through the loss of corneal endothelial cells. We demonstrate that CRISPR/Cas9-based postnatal gene editing achieves structural a...
