Figure 1 Overview of the Gene-Targeting Strategies Devised to Complement CYBB Gene Mutations in iPSCs from Patients with X-CGD (A) TALEN-mediated insertion of a complete CYBB minigene (exon 1–13) in exon 1 fails to restore gp91phox expression in X-CGD iPSC-derived granulocytes. (B) Rescue of the gp91phox protein expression is achieved by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated insertion of the CYBB (exon 2–13) minigene in exon 2.
