Halting muscular dystrophy with a 'backup' protein
A new use of CRISPR gene editing has halted and even reversed the progression of a model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, according to work led by scientists at the Perelman School of Medicine. The technique boosted a protein, utrophin, as a stand-in to take on the job of a different protein, dystrop
