1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Prime editor (PE), a new genome editing tool, can generate all 12 possible base-to-base conversions, insertion, and deletion of short fragment DNA. PE has the potential to correct the majority of known human genetic disease-related mutations. Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), the safe vector widely used in clinics, are not capable of delivering PE (∼6.3 kb) in a single vector because of the limited loading capacity (∼4.8 kb). To accommodate the loading capacity of AAVs, we constructed four split-PE (split-PE994, split-PE1005, split-PE1024, and split-PE1032) using Rma intein (Rhodothermus marinus). With the use of a GFP-mutated reporter system, PE reconstituting activities were screened, and two efficient split-PEs (split-PE1005 and split-PE1024) were identified. We then demonstrated that split-PEs delivered by dual-AAV1, especially split-PE1024, could mediate base transversion and insertion at four endogenous sites in human cells. To test the performance of split-PE in vivo, split-PE1024 was then delivered into the adult mouse retina by dual-AAV8. We demonstrated successful editing of Dnmt1 in adult mouse retina. Our study provides a new method to deliver PE to adult tissue, paving the way for in vivo gene-editing therapy using PE.
