Harnessing A3G for efficient and selective C-to-T conversion at C-rich sequences

Abstract Background Site-specific C>T DNA base editing has been achieved by recruiting cytidine deaminases to the target C using catalytically impaired Cas proteins; the target C is typically located within 5-nt editing window specified by the guide RNAs. The prototypical cytidine base editor BE3...
