Prime editor-based high-throughput screening reveals functional synonymous mutations in human cells.

Abstract excerpt

Synonymous mutations are generally considered neutral, while their roles in the human genome remain largely unexplored. Here we use the PEmax system to create a library of 297,900 engineered prime-editing guide RNAs and perform extensive screening to identify synonymous mutations affecting cell fitness. Unlike recent findings in yeast, group-level analyses show that synonymous mutations diverge from nonsynonymous...
