What Challenges Are Associated with RNA-Based Gene Editing?
Despite its potential, RNA-based gene editing faces several challenges. One major issue is the delivery of the gene-editing components to the target cells in a safe and efficient manner. Additionally, there are concerns about immune responses to the Cas9 protein and potential long-term effects of the genetic modifications. Researchers are actively working on developing more efficient delivery systems and less immunogenic Cas9 variants to overcome these challenges.
