Scope and Contents

Contents

CRISPR-Cas9 cytidine and adenosine base editors (CBEs and ABEs) can disrupt genes without introducing double-stranded breaks by inactivating splice sites (BE-splice) or by introducing premature stop (pmSTOP) codons. However, no in-depth comparison of these methods or a modular tool for designing BE-splice sgRNAs exists. To address these needs, we develop SpliceR (
http://z.umn.edu/spliceR
) to design and rank BE-splice sgRNAs for any Ensembl annotated genome, and compared disruption approaches in T cells using a screen against the TCR-CD3 MHC Class I immune synapse. Among the targeted genes, we find that targeting splice-donors is the most reliable disruption method, followed by targeting splice-acceptors, and introducing pm...
