Sensitive, direct detection of non-coding off-target base editor unwinding and editing in primary cells
2025-09-25
Abstract excerpt
Base editors create precise nucleotide changes in DNA, but their off-target activity remains challenging to quantify. Here, we develop and deploy a direct, in cellulo sequencing assay that simultaneously measures both Cas9-mediated unwinding and deaminase editing of genomic DNA (beCasKAS). Our strategy nominates >460-fold more potential off-target sites than other methods by enriching for Cas9-dependent R-loops i...
