摘要:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for specific cleavage of target sequences in retroviruses, for example human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1). The compositions, which can include nucleic acids encoding a Clustered Regularly Interspace Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR) associated endonuclease and a guide RNA sequence complementary to a target sequence in a human immunodeficiency virus, can be delivered to the cells of a subject having or at risk for contracting an HIV infection.
