Abstract excerpt
Cytosine base editor (CBE) enables targeted C-to-T conversions at single base-pair resolution and thus has potential therapeutic applications in humans. However, the low efficiency of the system limits practical use of this approach. We reported a high-throughput human cells-based reporter system that can be harnessed for quickly measuring editing activity of CBE. Screening of 1813 small-molecule compounds...
