Designing an Elusive C•G→G•C CRISPR Base Editor.
Protein engineering advances, including DNA repair manipulation of CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat) machinery, have paved the way for the first set of DNA precision base editors (C•G→T•A and A•T→G•C), with wide-ranging implications for treating many human genetic diseases. By utilizing the latest protein evolution advances, a hypothetical model for the first transversion (C•G→G•C) base editor can now be proposed.
