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

Analysis of Cytosine Base Editors in Bovine Zygotes: Efficiency and Editing Window Characterization Through Targeting the MYO7A Gene [PDF]
Cytosine base editors (CBEs) enable precise C-to-T (G-to-A) conversions in genomic DNA, offering significant potential for specific gene editing. This study compared the prototypical Base Editor 3 (BE3) and a modified variant, BE3-Y130F, which utilizes ...

Cytosine base editor 4 but not adenine base editor generates off-target mutations in mouse embryos. [PDF]
AbstractDeaminase base editing has emerged as a tool to install or correct point mutations in the genomes of living cells in a wide range of organisms. However, the genome-wide off-target effects introduced by base editors in the mammalian genome have been examined in only one study.

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

Base Editors for Citrus Gene Editing
Base editors, such as adenine base editors (ABE) and cytosine base editors (CBE), provide alternatives for precise genome editing without generating double-strand breaks (DSBs), thus avoiding the risk of genome instability and unpredictable outcomes ...
