1. An engineered transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN) protein that binds to a dystrophin gene, wherein the TALEN protein binds upstream from a premature stop codon on the dystrophin gene, downstream from a premature stop codon on the dystrophin gene, a region in exon 51 of the dystrophin gene, or a region in the 5′
- UTR of the dystrophin gene, wherein the TALEN protein comprises an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO;
11, SEQ ID NO;
12, SEQ ID NO;
13, SEQ ID NO;
14, and SEQ ID NO;
15.
