Some are focused on viruses called adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), which have been engineered to act only as a one-time delivery vehicle and not cause disease. Broad researchers are further engineering AAVs to efficiently deliver gene-based therapies to tissues that have been difficult to reach, such as the muscle and brain.

Two of these proteins are about 30% the size of Cas9 , and thus much easier to package into viruses for gene therapy.
