Project description:Base editors (BEs) shed new light on correcting disease-related T-to-C mutations. However, current rat APOBEC1-based BEs are less efficient in editing cytosines in highly-methylated regions or in GpC context. By screening a variety of APOBEC/AID deaminases, we showed that human APOBEC3A-conjugated BE and its engineered forms can mediate efficient C-to-T base editing in all examined contexts, including regions with high-methylation levels and GpC dinucleotides, which extends base editing scope.
