    Abstract: Methods for reversing one or more mutations in the telomerase (TERT) promoter are provided and may be used to treat a cancer. In some embodiments, programmable base editing (PBE) is used to correct a mutated TERT promoter (e.g., ?124 C>T, ?228C>T, or ?250C>T to ?124 C, ?228C, or ?250C, respectively) by using a single guide (sg) RNA-guided and deactivated Campylobacter jejuni Cas9-fused adenine base editor (CjABE). These methods can be used to treat a cancer, such as for example glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), in a mammalian subject in vivo.
