Gene Switch: A Novel Platform for Switching Genes On and Off

Roots Analysis

For instance, studies have demonstrated that gene switches incorporated in gene therapies being developed for the treatment of anemia can regulate the production of hormone erythropoietin. Additionally, the genetically modified cell therapies might transform into uncontrollable mutant cells when the switch is inactivated.
