Effective delivery of large genes to the retina by dual AAV vectors

Abstract Retinal gene therapy with adeno‐associated viral (AAV) vectors is safe and effective in humans. However, AAV's limited cargo capacity prevents its application to therapies of inherited retinal diseases due to mutations of genes over 5 kb, like Stargardt's disease (STGD) and Usher...
