Abstract

This invention relates to a base editing tool. To improve the efficiency and accuracy of target base editing in the existing PE2 system, this invention provides a novel base editing tool comprising the SunTag system and the PE2 system. This invention, for the first time, utilizes the results of the SunTag and PE systems, employing the SunTag system and a more efficient version of PE2 to construct the SunTag-PE2 system. After optimization, the tool is compared with the original PE2 system on HEK293T cells. The proposed base editing tool further improves the accuracy and precision of the PE2 system, providing more options for gene editing. This technology will promote the rapid development of life science research, agricultural production, and biomedicine in my country and worldwide, and has significant application value.
