Article Abstract

Prime editing (PE) is a novel, double-strand break (DSB)-independent gene editing technology that represents an exciting avenue for the treatment of inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). Given the extensive and heterogenous nature of the 280 genes associated with IRDs, genome editing has presented countless complications. However, recent advances in genome editing technologies have identified PE to have tremendous potential, with the capability to ameliorate small deletions and insertions in addition to all twelve possible transition and transversion mutations. The current PE system is based on the fusion of the Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9) nickase H840A mutant and an optimized Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMLV) reverse-transcriptase (RT) in conjunction with a PE guide RNA (pegRNA). In this study, we developed a prime editor based on the avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV)-RT and showed its applicability for the installation of the PRPH2 c.828+1G>A mutation in HEK293 cells.

Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a prevalent malignancy characterized by a rising incidence and significant mortality. Interleukins (ILs) are crucial in regulating immune cell trafficking and exhibit anti-tumor properties. However, limited research has explored the expression levels and prognostic significance of interleukins in RCC.

To investigate blue light-induced astaxanthin accumulation in Haematococcus pluvialis, this study first identified eight potential cis-acting elements (BLE1 to BLE8) of the genes involved in the astaxanthin synthesis pathway that may respond to blue light signals, and then screened and characterized two corresponding transcription factors (TFs), HpZF and HpMYB. In particular, HpZF and HpMYB were specifically bound to BLE7 and BLE3, respectively. To further determine the role of two TFs in response to blue light signals, they were expressed in Schizochytrium sp.
