Protein language model-guided engineering of an anti-CRISPR protein for precise genome editing in human cells
2023-12-13
Abstract excerpt
Promiscuous editing by CRISPR/Cas systems within the human genome is a major challenge that must be addressed prior to applying these systems therapeutically. In bacteria, CRISPR/Cas systems have evolved in a co-evolutionary arms race with infectious phage viruses that contain inhibitory anti-CRISPR proteins within their genomes. Here, we harness the outcome of this co-evolutionary arms race to engineer an AcrIIA4...
