Protein engineering advances, including DNA repair manipulation of CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat) machinery, have paved the way for the first set of DNA precision base editors (C•G→T•A and A•T→G•C), with wide-ranging implications for treating many human genetic diseases. By utilizing the latest protein evolution advances, a hypothetical model for the first transversion (C•G→G•C) base editor can now be proposed.
