CRISPR/Cas9-based therapeutics, especially those that can correct gene mutations via homology directed repair (HDR), have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. However, HDR-based therapeutics are challenging to develop because they require simultaneous <i>in vivo</i> delivery of Cas9 protein, guide RNA and donor DNA. Here, we demonstrate that a delivery vehicle composed of gold nanoparticles conjugated to DNA and complexed with cationic endosomal disruptive polymers c ...[more]
