...Kan team first constructed an artificial gene that could replace the instructions of a faulty gene subunit that was causing beta thalassemia. When frog egg cells were then injected with both the man-made instructor and the defective genetic material, the fault was corrected. The successful experiment, published in the British journal Nature, marks the first reported time an artificially constructed gene has been successfully used to correct a human genetic defect...
