Advances in Gene Therapy Techniques to Treat <i>LRRK2</i> Gene Mutation

Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (<i>LRRK2</i>) gene mutation is an autosomal dominant mutation associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Among <i>LRRK2</i> gene mutations, the <i>LRRK2</i> G2019S mutation is frequently involved in PD onset. Currently, diverse gene co...

description Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (<i>LRRK2</i>) gene mutation is an autosomal dominant mutation associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Among <i>LRRK2</i> gene mutations, the <i>LRRK2</i> G2019S mutation is frequently involved in PD onset. Currently, diverse gene correction tools such as zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), helper-dependent adenoviral vector (HDAdV), the bacterial artificial chromosome-based homologous recombination (BAC-based HR) system, and CRISPR/Cas9-homology-directed repair (HDR) or adenine base editor (ABE) are used in genome editing. Gene correction of the <i>LRRK2</i> G2019S mutation has been applied whenever new gene therapy tools emerge, being mainly applied to induced pluripotent stem cells (<i>LRRK2</i> G2019S-mutant iPSCs). Here, we comprehensively introduce the principles and methods of each programmable nuclease such as ZFN, CRISPR/Cas9-HDR or ABE applied to <i>LRRK2</i> G2019S, as well as those of HDAdV or BAC-based HR systems used as nonprogrammable nuclease systems.
