Automated design of CRISPR prime editors for 56,000 human pathogenic variants
Summary: Prime editors (PEs) are clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based genome engineering tools that can introduce precise base-pair edits. We developed an automated pipeline to correct (therapeutic editing) or introduce (disease modeling) human pathogenic variants...

Summary: Prime editors (PEs) are clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based genome engineering tools that can introduce precise base-pair edits. We developed an automated pipeline to correct (therapeutic editing) or introduce (disease modeling) human pathogenic variants from ClinVar that optimizes the design of several RNA constructs required for prime editing and avoids predicted off-targets in the human genome. However, using optimal PE design criteria, we find that only a small fraction of these pathogenic variants can be targeted. Through the use of alternative Cas9 enzymes and extended templates, we increase the number of targetable pathogenic variants from 32,000 to 56,000 variants and make these pre-designed PE constructs accessible through a web-based portal (http://primeedit.nygenome.org). Given the tremendous potential for therapeutic gene editing, we also assessed the possibility of developing universal PE constructs, finding that common genetic variants impact only a small minority of designed PEs. |
