Provided herein are chimeric minigenes, where the alternative splicing of the minigene determines whether an encoded gene is expressed. In particular, the minigenes are alternatively spliced in response to splicing modulator dmgs, such that the encoded gene is only expressed in the present of the splicing modulator dmg. The encoded gene may encode an inhibitory RNA, a CRISPR-Cas9 protein, a transactivator, or a therapeutic protein. |
