Multiplexed base editing through Cas12a variant-mediated cytosine and adenine base editors

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Cas12a-mediated cytosine (CBE) and adenine base editor (ABE) systems with elevated efficiencies and expanded target scopes are developed, by combining highly active deaminases with Cas12a variants, enCas12a, RR and RVR, recognizing non-TTTV PAMs.

A precise and efficient adenine base editor. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ther, 2022
Adenine base editors (ABEs) are novel genome-editing tools, and their activity has been greatly enhanced by eight additional mutations, thus named ABE8e. However, elevated catalytic activity was concomitant with frequent generation of bystander mutations. This bystander effect precludes its safe applications required in human gene therapy.

DNA capture by a CRISPR-Cas9-guided adenine base editor. [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2020
Secrets of a fast base editor CRISPR-Cas9 base editors comprise RNA-guided Cas proteins fused to an enzyme that can deaminate a DNA nucleoside. No natural enzyme deaminates adenine in DNA, and so a breakthrough came when a natural transfer RNA deaminase was fused to Cas9 and evolved to give an adenine base editor (

Evolution of an adenine base editor into a small, efficient cytosine base editor with low off-target activity. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Biotechnol, 2023
AbstractCytosine base editors (CBEs) are larger and can suffer from higher off-target activity or lower on-target editing efficiency than current adenine base editors (ABEs). To develop a CBE that retains the small size, low off-target activity and high on-target activity of current ABEs, we evolved the highly active deoxyadenosine deaminase TadA-8e to

Therapeutic adenine base editor with minimized off-target effects. [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Cell
Abstract Genome-wide off-target effect poses a safety risk for clinical use of adenine base editor (ABE), among which ABE8e is one of the most efficient. Genome-wide off-target analysis by two-cell embryo injection (GOTI) analysis showed that the rate of genome-wide single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in ABE8e-edited cells was ∼30-fold ...

Adenine base editor engineering reduces editing of bystander cytosines [PDF]

open access: yesNature Biotechnology, 2021
Adenine base editors (ABEs) catalyze specific A-to-G conversions at genomic sites of interest. However, ABEs also induce cytosine deamination at the target site. To reduce the cytosine editing activity, we engineered a commonly used adenosine deaminase, TadA7.10, and found that ABE7.10 with a D108Q mutation in TadA7.10 exhibited tenfold reduced ...

Optimize nearly PAM-less adenine base editor to improve editing efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang, 2022
Objective To explore the effects of replacing different components of PAM-less adenine base editor (ABE) on its editing efficiency. Methods ABEmax was replaced with Tad-8e in SpRY-ABEmax to construct SpRY-ABE8e.
