Abstract
Advancements in genome editing make possible to exploit the functions of enzymes for efficient DNA modifications with tremendous potential to treat human genetic diseases. Several nuclease genome editing strategies including Meganucleases (MNs), Zinc Finger Nucleases (ZFNs), Transcription Activator-like Effector Nucleases (TALENs) and Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats-CRISPR associated proteins (CRISPR-Cas) have been developed for the correction of genetic mutations. CRISPR-Cas has further been engineered to create nickase genome editing tools including Base editors and Prime editors with much precision and efficacy. In this review, we summarized recent improvements in nuclease and nickase genome editing approaches for the treatment of genetic diseases. We also highlighted some limitations for the translation of these approaches into clinical applications.
