High-fidelity base editor with no detectable genome-wide off-target effects
2020-02-09
Abstract excerpt
Base editors hold promise for correcting pathogenic mutations, while substantial single nucleotide variations (SNVs) on both DNA and RNA were generated by cytosine base editors (CBEs). Here we examined possibilities to reduce off-target effects by engineering cytosine deaminases. By screening 24 CBEs harboring various rAPOBEC1 (BE3) or human APOBEC3A (BE3-hA3A) mutations on the ssDNA or RNA binding domain, we foun...
