The team also plans to study how the test may be applied to specific diseases such as sickle cell anemia.
it could also be used to study the dynamics of the malformed blood cells that cause sickle cell anemia.
#New age of genome editing could lead to cure for sickle cell anemia Australia researchers have shown that changing just a single letter of the DNA of human red blood cells in the laboratory increases their production of oxygen-carrying haemoglobin-a world-first
sickle cell anemia, muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis. While the field is still in its relative infancy, Hubbard says human clinical trials involving sequence-specific DNA-editing agents are already underway.
Examples include diseases such as hemophilia, sickle cell anemia, muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis. While the field is still in its relative infancy,
It can also be applied to blood diseases, like sickle cell anemia, or be used to look at contamination, for example in food or milk.
