Advancement in Base Editing Technology

Base editing (BE), a CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology, offers potential therapeutic strategies against diseases. Base editing has shown significant potential in correcting genetic mutations associated with immunodeficiency disorders and chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, metabolic conditions, and certain types of cancer. Moreover, base editing sensor libraries enable high-throughput screening and functional analysis of cancer-associated single nucleotide variants. The rising number of cancer cases worldwide increases the demand for novel therapeutics. For instance, in 2022, cancer was one of the leading causes of death globally, with 20 million new cases and 9.7 million deaths, according to the National Cancer Institute. By 2040, it is projected that cancer cases will reach 29.9 million, with 15.3 million cancer-related deaths.

Recent advancements in base editing technology have shown significant progress in crop genetic improvement. For instance, according to a study published in Genome Biology in February 2024, scientists have developed highly efficient base editors for cotton plants. The GhABE8e base editor exhibited 99.9% editing efficiency compared to GhABE7.10, which had 64.9% efficiency, with no off-target editing detected. Such studies provide an important technical platform and genetic information for studying and creating ideal plant architecture.
