Abstract:Prime editing (PE) enables almost all types of precise genome editing in animals and plants. It has been successfully adapted to edit several plants at variable efficiency and versatility. However, this technique is inefficient for dicots for unknown reasons. Here, by employing novel combinations of PE components, including an RNA chaperone and modified epegRNAs driven by a PolII-PolIII composite promoter and a viral replicon system, we obtained up to 9.7% of the desired PE efficiency at the callus stage asses… Show more
