Abstract excerpt
Base editors can achieve targeted genomic base conversion. However, the off-target issue is one of the major concerns in their application. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) at the individual level can provide direct information on genome-wide specificity, but it is difficult to distinguish true off-target single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) induced by base editors from background variation. Here we describe an...
