Synthetic biology yields new approach to gene therapy

A novel gene-delivery system that shuttles a gene into a cell, but only for a temporary stay, has been developed by researchers, providing a potential new gene-therapy strategy for treating disease. The approach offers distinct advantages over other types of gene therapies currently under investigation, said the lead author of a study describing the new technique.
