A fusion expressed protein (base editor) of human apolipoprotein B messenger RNA deaminase catalytic subunit 3A (APOBEC3A), CRISPR-related Cas protein and uracil glycosidase inhibitor (UGI). The base editor can edit bases in DNA, deaminates cytosine into uracil, and has high editing efficiency even if cytosine is positioned at a GpC site or is in a hypermethylated state.

US10947530B2
Adenosine deaminases that are capable of deaminating adenosine in DNA. Also, fusion proteins comprising a Cas9 (for example, a Cas9 nickase) domain and adenosine deaminases that deaminate adenosine in DNA. In some embodiments, the fusion proteins further comprise a nuclear localization sequence and/or an inhibitor of base repair, such as, a nuclease-dead inosine-specific nuclease.

A base-editing system and a construction and application method thereof. The base-editing system is characterized by comprising a UGI expression vector and a BE3 expression vector or a UGI and BE3 co-expression vector. The invention increases the C–T editing rate generated by the CRISPR base editor and reduces the base insertion or deletion rate caused by the CRISPR system, thereby enhancing the efficacy of the CRISPR base editor and providing a new method for implementing more accurate and safe base editing in genomes of various species by the CRISPR base editor.
