| Abstract: | Human pluripotent stem cells have been much anticipated as a powerful system to study developmental events, model genetic disorders, and serve as a source of autologous cells for cell therapy in genetic disorders. Precise genetic manipulation is crucial to all these applications, and many recent advances have been made in site specific nuclease systems like zinc finger nucleases, TALENs, and CRISPR/Cas. In this review, we address the importance of site-specific genome modification and how this technology can be applied to manipulate human pluripotent stem cells. |
