A molecular tool for precise genome repair

Updated

Abstract

Programmable coiled-coil assembly can create highly efficient split base editors for genetic therapy.

  • Base editing has the potential to transform treatments for genetic diseases.
  • Current delivery methods have limited the clinical application of base editing.
  • The developed split base editors were shown to function effectively in living organisms.
