  • Patent number: 11806408
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for treating an eye disorder, for example cone-rod dystrophy type 6 (CORD6). In certain aspects, a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising nucleic acids is administered to a subject to treat an autosomal dominant disorder or condition, such as a condition associated with a dominant mutation in a guanylate cyclase 2D (GUCY2D) gene, such as knocking out a dominant mutant form of the gene in the subject. Further provided herein are recombinant AAV particles that comprise one or more recombinant AAV genomes comprising nucleic acids that encode a guide RNA that targets a GUCY2D gene and/or an RNA-guided endonuclease.
