Cut-and-paste DNA: fixing mutations with `genome editing`
... Hemophilia B in people is caused by mutations in the F9 gene. F9 is a critical component of the blood clotting mechanism. Mutations in the F9 gene are scattered across the gene - different people have mutations at different spots. That’s very different from Huntington’s disease, where every patient ...
