Abstract

ndividuals with spontaneous loss-of-function PCSK9 mutations experience a significant reduction of both LDL-C levels (30–40%) as well as CHD risk (88%), and appear free from adverse clinical consequences.2 Gene-editing technologies, which include the CRISPR–Cas nucleases and CRISPR base editor, have the potential to permanently modify disease-causing genes.
