Exon Amendment

An exon amendment is a change made to a specific part of a gene called an exon, which is a segment that codes for a protein. During the process of editing DNA, scientists can modify, add, or remove exons to correct genetic mutations or alter gene functions. This targeted adjustment can help improve or restore normal biological processes and is often used in gene therapy to treat genetic disorders. Essentially, exon amendments fine-tune the genetic instructions to better serve the body's needs.
