Abstract excerpt
Genome editing technology is a powerful tool for programming microbial cell factories. However, rat APOBEC1-derived cytosine base editor (CBE) that converts C•G to T•A at target genes induced DNA off-targets, regardless of single-guide RNA (sgRNA) sequences. Although the high efficiencies of the bacterial CBEs have been developed, a risk of unidentified off-targets impeded genome editing for microbial cell...
