Cette technique mise au point par un des membres fondateurs d'Intronn, Lloyd G, Mitchell, consiste à insérer dans la cellule un fragment d'ARN correct de façon à réparer et à corriger l'ARN défectueux par transépissage, notamment dans le cas des maladies génétiques. Ce n'est tout : La technologie SMaRT permet également d'insérer un fragment d'ARN dont l'expression toxique dans la cellule pourra détruire les cellules cancéreuses ou infectées par le VIH, par exemple.
