Abstract
There is a low efficiency of A-to-G base conversion in at specific positions using base editors. Here the authors fuse ABE8e with the Rad51 DNA-binding domain to generate a hyperactive ABE allowing improved A-to-G editing efficiency at the region proximal to the PAM and improved simultaneous A/C conversion efficiency.
