Abstract

The present applications discloses an NLS-optimized SpCas9-based prime editor that improves genome editing efficiency exemplified by endogenous loci in cultured cell lines. Using this genome modification system, tumor formation can be initiated through somatic cell editing in the adult mouse. Furthermore, a dual adeno-associated vims (AAVs) is utilized for the delivery of a split-intein prime editor for correction of in vivo pathogenic mutations.
