Project description:Techniques for exclusion of exons from mature transcripts have been applied as gene therapies for treating many different diseases. Since exon skipping has been traditionally accomplished using technologies that have a transient effect, it is particularly important to develop new techniques that enable permanent exon skipping. We have recently demonstrated that this can be accomplished using cytidine base editors for permanently disabling the splice acceptor of target exons. We now demonstrate the application of adenine-deaminase base editors to disrupt the conserved adenosine within splice acceptor sites for programmable exon skipping. We also demonstrate that by altering the amino acid sequence of the linker between the adenosine deaminase domain and the Cas9 nickase or by coupling the adenine base editor with a uracil glycosylase inhibitor, the DNA editing efficiency and exon skipping rates improve significantly. Finally, we developed a split base editor architecture compatible with adeno-associated viral packaging. Collectively, these results represent significant progress towards permanent in vivo exon skipping through base editing and, ultimately, a new modality of gene therapy for the treatment of genetic diseases.

Project description:The goal of these experiments were to test the on-target and target-adjacent editing efficiencies of different single-nucleobase editing systems. Previous studies have shown that tethering DNA mutating enzymes to Cas9-nickase-UGI complexes results in editing of chromosomal DNA. However, these editing events encompass undesirable target-adjacent nucleobase edits. Here, we characterize a novel approach that reduces the frequency of target-adjacent editing while maintaining a high level of on-target editing.

Project description:Adenine and cytosine base editors (ABEs and CBEs) represent a new genome editing technology that allows the programmable installation of A-to-G or C-to-T alterations on DNA. We engineered Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9-based adenine and cytosine base editor (SpACE) that enables efficient simultaneous introduction of A-to-G and C-to-T substitutions in the same base editing window on DNA.

Project description:The majority of known pathogenic point mutations in the human genome are C•G to T•A substitutions. Adenine base editors (ABEs), comprised of nuclease-impaired Cas9 fused to adenine deaminases, enable direct repair of these mutations, making them promising tools for precision in vivo genome editing therapies. However, prior to application in patients, thorough safety and efficacy studies in relevant model organisms are needed. Here, we apply adenine base editing in vivo in the liver of mice and cynomolgus macaques to install a splice site mutation in PCSK9 and reduce blood low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, a well-known risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Intravenous delivery of ABE-encoding mRNA and a locus-specific single guide (sg)RNA utilizing lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology induce up to 67% editing in the liver of mice and up to 34% editing in the liver of macaques, leading to a reduction of plasma PCSK9 and LDL levels. We observed rapid clearance of ABE mRNA after LNP-mediated delivery, and neither sgRNA-dependent nor sgRNA-independent off-target mutations are detected in genomic DNA. Together, our findings support safety and feasibility of adenine base editing to treat patients with monogenetic liver diseases.

Project description:Plant biotechnology needs new methods that accelerate design-build-test-learn cycles to develop new gene editing reagents. We have established ITER (Iterative Testing of Editing Reagents) based on arrayed protoplast transfections and high-content imaging, allowing one optimization cycle –from design to results– within three weeks. We validated ITER in wheat and maize protoplasts using Cas9 cytosine and adenine base editors and used it to develop an optimized LbCas12a-ABE system. Sequential improvement of five components –NLS, crRNA, LbCas12a nuclease, adenine deaminase and linker– led to a systematic, stepwise increase in ABE activity at extrachromosomal GFP reporter (from 0.5% to 40%) and endogenous target sites. We confirmed the activity of LbCas12a-ABE in stable wheat transformants and leveraged these improvements to develop a highly mutagenic LbCas12a nuclease and a LbCas12a-CBE. Our data show that ITER is a sensitive, versatile, and high-throughput platform that can be harnessed to accelerate the development of genome editing technologies in plants.

Project description:The advent of base editors (BEs) holds a promising potential in correcting pathogenic-related point mutations to treat relevant diseases. Unexpectedly, Cas9 nickase (nCas9) derived BEs lead to DNA double-strand breaks, which can trigger unwanted cellular responses including a p53-mediated DNA damage response (DDR). Here, we showed that catalytically-dead-Cas12a (dCas12a) conjugated BEs induced no DNA break and minimally activated DDR proteins including H2AX, ATM, ATR and p53. We further developed a BEACON (Base Editing induced by human APOBEC3A and Cas12a without DNA break) system that fuses dCas12a to the engineered APOBEC3A with enhanced deamination efficiency and editing specificity. By using BEACON, efficient C-to-T editing was achieved at levels comparable to AncBE4max and only low levels of DDR and RNA off-target (OT) effects were triggered in mammalian cells. BEACON also induced in vivo base editing in mouse embryos and targeted C-to-T conversions were detected in F0 mice.
