Cytosine base editors with minimized unguided DNA and RNA off-target events and high on-target activity
28 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Cytosine base editors (CBEs) enable efficient, programmable reversion of T•A to C•G point mutations in the human genome. Recently, cytosine base editors with rAPOBEC1 were reported to induce unguided cytosine deamination in genomic DNA and cellular RNA. Here we report eight next-generation CBEs (BE4 with either RrA3F [wt, F130L], AmAPOBEC1, SsAPOBEC3B [wt, R54Q], or PpAPOBEC1 [wt, H122A, R33A]) that display...
