  • Publication number: 20220364072
    Abstract: Provided are a fusion protein that improves gene editing efficiency and an application thereof. The fusion protein comprises a single-stranded DNA binding protein functional domain, nucleoside deaminase and nuclease. According to CBEs, when carrying our base conversion from C-G to T-A, nucleoside deaminase such as cytosine deaminase carries out deamination by using single-stranded DNA as a substrate, and by re-fusing the single-stranded DNA binding protein functional domain on the fusion protein of the nucleoside deaminase and nuclease, the chance of single-stranded DNA being exposed to the nucleoside deaminase is greatly increased, thereby significantly improving base editing efficiency. The present disclosure provides a breakthrough improvement of single-base gene editing technology and can greatly promote the application thereof in aspects such as gene editing, gene therapy, cell therapy, animal model making, and crop genetic breeding.

  • Publication number: 20220356456
    Abstract: Disclosed is an sgRNA guiding a PD1 gene for cleavage to achieve the efficient integration of exogenous sequences. The method for gene editing a PD1 gene in cells includes the steps of introducing a nuclease and an sgRNA into cells, and gene-editing the PD1 gene. The sgRNA guides the nuclease to cleave the PD1 gene and forms a broken site, at which an exogenous donor repair template can also be introduced, so that CAR-T elements can be directionally inserted at the specific site of the PD1 locus to construct enhanced CD19-CART cells with PD1 knockout in one step.
