METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR EDITING A GENOME WITH PRIME EDITING AND A RECOMBINASE
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18704328 titled 'METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR EDITING A GENOME WITH PRIME EDITING AND A RECOMBINASE
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are constructs, systems, and methodologies using prime editing (PE), twin prime editing (twinPE), or multi-flap prime editing to carry out site-specific and large-scale genetic modification, such as, but not limited to, insertions, deletions, inversions, replacements, and chromosomal translocations of whole or partial genes (e.g., whole gene, gene exons and/or introns, and gene regulatory regions). In certain embodiments, the disclosure provides constructs, systems, and methods using prime editing (PE), e.g., single flap or “classical” PE or twinPE or multi-flap PE, to install one or more target sites for site specific recombination in a target genomic locus (e.g., a specific gene, exon, intron, or regulatory sequence), which may then be acted on by one or more site-specific recombinases to effectuate a large-scale genetic modification, such as an insertions, deletions, inversions, replacements, and chromosomal translocations.
