Here we demonstrate that TALE activators can robustly function individually or in synergistic combinations to increase expression of endogenous human genes over wide dynamic ranges. These findings will encourage applications of TALE activators for research and therapy and guide design of novel monomeric TAL effector-based fusion proteins.en-USJournal Article2014-03-1010.1038/nmeth.2366
