TALEN based HPV-E7 editing triggers necrotic cell death in cervical cancer cells
Abstract Human Papillomavirus E7 and E6 oncoproteins have been considered as suitable candidate anti-viral targets since they cause malignant conversion in cervical cancers. Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs) are recent editing tools to knockout genes by inducing double strande...
