Project description:To investigate if the truncated PE can be dilivered by dual AAV8 vectors for in vivo prime editing. We injected the dual AAV8 into 10-week-old C57BL/6J mice . Livers were isolated 4 weeks after injection and next generation sequencing showed an average of 1.4% and 5.4% precise prime editing with the low and high AAV doses, respectively (Figure 4D ). This demonstrates that PECO-Mini can be efficiently delivered by dual AAVs for in vivo prime editing.

Project description:Prime editing is a novel genome editing technology using fusion proteins of Cas9-nickase and reverse transcriptase, that holds promise to correct a wide variety of genetic defects.
We succeeded in efficient prime editing and functional recovery of disease-causing mutations in patient-derived liver and intestinal stem cell organoids. Whole genome sequencing of did not detect off-target mutations or a mutational signature induced by prime editing.

Project description:Prime editing allows precise modification of genomes. To identify cellular determinants of prime editing, we developed scalable prime editing reporters and performed genome-scale CRISPR-interference screens. From these screens, a single factor emerged as the strongest mediator of prime editing: the small RNA-binding exonuclease protection factor La (SSB). Further investigation revealed that La promotes prime editing across approaches (PE2, PE3, PE4, PE5), edit types (substitutions, insertions, deletions), guide RNA designs (pegRNAs, epegRNAs), endogenous loci, and cell types, but has no consistent effect on genome editing approaches that rely on standard, unextended guide RNAs. La binds polyuridine tracts at the 3' ends of RNA polymerase III transcripts and protects those transcripts from cellular exonucleases. We found that La stabilizes (e)pegRNAs, with particular effect on their 3' extensions, where edits are encoded. Guided by these insights, we developed a prime editing protein (PE7) fused to the RNA-binding, N-terminal domain of La. This editor improved prime editing with expressed (e)pegRNAs and synthetic pegRNAs optimized for La binding. Our results provide key insights into how prime editing components interact with the cellular environment and suggest general strategies for stabilizing exogenous small RNAs therein.

Project description:Prime editing enables the precise modification of genomes through reverse transcription of template sequences appended to the 3′ ends of CRISPR–Cas guide RNAs. To identify cellular determinants of prime editing, we developed scalable prime editing reporters and performed genome-scale CRISPR-interference screens. From these screens, a single factor emerged as the strongest mediator of prime editing: the small RNA-binding exonuclease protection factor La. Further investigation revealed that La promotes prime editing across approaches (PE2, PE3, PE4 and PE5), edit types (substitutions, insertions and deletions), endogenous loci and cell types but has no consistent effect on genome-editing approaches that rely on standard, unextended guide RNAs. Previous work has shown that La binds polyuridine tracts at the 3′ ends of RNA polymerase III transcripts. We found that La functionally interacts with the 3′ ends of polyuridylated prime editing guide RNAs (pegRNAs). Guided by these results, we developed a prime editor protein (PE7) fused to the RNA-binding, N-terminal domain of La. This editor improved prime editing with expressed pegRNAs and engineered pegRNAs (epegRNAs), as well as with synthetic pegRNAs optimized for La binding. Together, our results provide key insights into how prime editing components interact with the cellular environment and suggest general strategies for stabilizing exogenous small RNAs therein.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to introduce a new genome editing tool, which has the higher editing scope than the original genome editing tools. Methods: First, we transfected PE2 (the original prime editing tool, prime editor2), PE3 (the original prime editing tool, prime editor3) and HOPE (the new tool we developed in this study) vectors into human cells, respectively. Then, we harvested the genomic DNA form the transfected cells and amplified the specified amplicons. Finally, we used targeted amplicon sequencing approach to compare the editing efficiency and presion of the new tool with the original reported tools. Results: Our new genome editing tool improves the editing efficiency of prime editing without increasing the risk of undesired indels formation. Conclusions: We deleveped a new genome editing tool to increase the likelihood of successful gene engineering.

Project description:Prime editing is a highly versatile CRISPR-based genome editing technology with the potential to correct the vast majority of genetic defects1. However, correction of a disease phenotype in vivo in somatic tissues has not been achieved yet. Here, we establish proof-of-concept for in vivo prime editing, that resulted in rescue of a metabolic liver disease. We first develop a size-reduced prime editor (PE) lacking the RNaseH domain of the reverse transcriptase (SpCas9-PERnH), and a linker- and NLS-optimized intein-split PE construct (SpCas9-PE p.1153) for delivery by adeno-associated viruses (AAV). Systemic dual AAV-mediated delivery of this variant in neonatal mice enables installation of a transversion mutation at the Dnmt1 locus with 15% efficiency on average. Next, we targeted the disease-causing mutation in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (Pah)enu2 mouse model for phenylketonuria (PKU). Correction rates of 1.5% using the dual AAV approach could be increased to up to 14% by delivery of full-length SpCas9-PE via adenoviral vector 5 (AdV5), leading to full restoration of physiological blood phenylalanine (L-Phe) levels below 120 µmol/L. Our study demonstrates in vivo prime editing in the liver at two independent loci, emphasizing the potential of PEs for future therapeutic applications.
