Abstract: h The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, and systems related to template-mediated genome editing and modification. In particular, the present disclosure provides novel genome modification technology involving site-specific chemical modification of a nucleotide to introduce a replication-blocking lesion. The compositions, methods, and systems described herein facilitate efficient site-specific genome modification of a DNA target, while minimizing the unintended edits and cellular toxicity associated with current genome editing approaches.
