Precise and programmable C:G to G:C base editing in genomic DNA
2020-07-21
Abstract excerpt
Many genetic diseases are caused by single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Base editors can correct SNPs at single-nucleotide resolution, but until recently, only allowed for C:G to T:A and A:T to G:C transition edits, addressing four out of twelve possible DNA base substitutions. Here we developed a novel class of C:G to G:C Base Editors (CGBEs) to create single-base genomic transversions in human cells. Our CGB...
