Base Editing of Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Methods Mol Biol. 2023:2606:43-62. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2879-9_5.

Abstract

Base editing by nucleotide deaminases linked to programmable DNA-binding proteins represents a promising approach to remedy blood disorders. Here we describe the ex vivo base editing of human CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) by electroporation of base editor mRNA or protein.

Keywords: Base editing; CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells; Electroporation.
