Metagenomi showcases compact gene editing platform at CRISPR conference
Summary: Metagenomi introduced its compact SMART adenine base editors at the AIChE 7th International Conference on CRISPR Technologies. These editors can fit into a single adeno-associated virus (AAV), enhancing gene editing efficiency for various therapeutic applications.
The new SMART platform addresses challenges in delivering gene editing tools to tissues beyond the liver, which is crucial for treating neuromuscular diseases. Traditional tools often exceed AAV capacity, complicating treatment delivery.
Metagenomi's advancements include collaborations and the use of artificial intelligence to optimize the SMART system. This approach aims to improve the effectiveness of gene editing technologies for a range of genetic conditions.
