In-Vivo Base & Prime Editing refers to a gene editing technique that allows for precise single-letter DNA edits directly within living organisms, without causing double-strand breaks. This method is an advancement over first-generation CRISPR technology.
In-Vivo Base & Prime Editing addresses the limitations of first-generation CRISPR methods, which often induce double-strand breaks in DNA and can lead to off-target effects or unintended genetic damage. This technology aims to provide a safer and more precise means of making targeted edits directly within living organisms.
Base and prime editors are engineered proteins that can be delivered into target tissues via lipid nanoparticles or viral vectors. These editors chemically convert one base to another, allowing for precise edits at specific locations within the genome.
The manufacturing process involves designing and producing base and prime editors with specific guide sequences for targeting desired genomic loci. These editors are then encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles or viral vectors, which serve as delivery vehicles into target tissues.
Base and prime editors are built through genetic engineering techniques to incorporate catalytic domains from Cas9 or other endonucleases, as well as deaminase enzymes for base conversion. The editing components are then integrated into a delivery system such as lipid nanoparticles or viral vectors.
