Tailoring a CRISPR/Cas-based Epigenome Editor for Programmable Chromatin Acylation and Decreased Cytotoxicity
2024-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Engineering histone acylation states can inform mechanistic epigenetics and catalyze therapeutic epigenome editing opportunities. Here, we developed engineered lysine acyltransferases that enable the programmable deposition of acetylation and longer-chain acylations. We show that targeting an engineered lysine crotonyltransferase results in weak levels of endogenous enhancer activation yet retains potency when tar...
