Amplified Genome Editing by In Vivo Editor Production and Transfer to Non-Transduced Cells – Genome editing enzymes have vast therapeutic potential. However, achieving sufficient delivery in vivo remains a major challenge, because editing machinery is confined to the subset of transfectable cells in a tissue. Here, we tested the possibility that genome editing could be amplified in vivo by programming transfected cells to produce and transfer editing enzymes in lipid vesicles to neighboring cells. Our data show that this NANoparticle-Induced Transfer of Enzyme (NANITE) strategy tripled editing efficiency in cultured cells relative to non-spreading controls.   Furthermore, a single intravenous injection of the NANITE plasmid into mice induced ~3-fold higher levels of liver editing at the Ttr locus relative to non-spreading controls, with corresponding reductions in serum transthyretin levels. Amplifying therapeutic enzymes in situ offers a nonviral and non-infectious strategy to overcome low delivery efficiencies and reduce effective dose requirements.   Published in bioRxiv (January 13, 2026): https://doi.org/10.64898/2026.01.13.699115

Sometimes #Cas9 is too dang big. But mini Cas proteins are bad at both NHEJ & HDR. PhD student Fedor Gorbenko used mammalian cell evolution for *HDR* to make REALLY super #Cas12f1 and #TnpB.

Impressive spacer selection mechanism by Cas9-adaptation supercomplexes - all pathway captured by #cryoEM #Cas9 🧬🧩🧵

0 0 0 0

The function of the ring-shaped protein Csn2 is reminiscent of the sliding clamp in DNA replication. Repurposing of #Cas9 nuclease by the #CRISPR adaptation machinery for prespacer selection characterized here demonstrates #Cas9 plasticity.

Upon PAM recognition the DNA-scanning supercomplex adopts the 'docked' conformation. Its further rearrangement via displacement of #Cas9 REC2 domain yields the 'locked' supercomplex with straight DNA.

Here, we present #cryoEM structures of the type II-A prespacer selection supercomplex consisting of #Cas9 RNP, Cas1-Cas2 #integrase fragment and Csn2 ring in the DNA-scanning and two different PAM-bound configurations.

In type II-A #CRISPR-Cas systems acquisition of new spacers involves the effector nuclease #Cas9, which forms a ‘supercomplex’ with the Cas1-Cas2 #integrase and the ring-shaped Csn2 protein. The supercomplex structure and the role of Csn2 remain unknown.

That’s the promise of CRISPR-Cas9—a powerful gene-editing tool transforming science, medicine, and agriculture! What is CRISPR-Cas9? CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) paired with the Cas9 enzyme acts like molecular scissors ✂️, targeting and cutting specific DNA sequences. Simple, precise, and cost-effective! Types of CRISPR Systems: 1. CRISPR-Cas9 (Type II): Most widely used; edits genes in plants, animals, humans. 2. CRISPR-Cas12 (Type V): Targets single-stranded DNA—useful in diagnostics! 3. CRISPR-Cas13 (Type VI): Targets RNA—potential for treating viral infections like COVID-19. 4. CRISPR-Cas3 (Type I): Cuts large sections of DNA—great for gene deletion studies. 5. CRISPR-Cas14: Ultra-small, highly specific—next-gen genome editing tool! Real-World Applications: Medicine: Curing genetic diseases like sickle cell anemia ❤️‍🩹 Agriculture: Creating drought- and pest-resistant crops 🌾 Diagnostics: CRISPR-based COVID-19 test kits 🧪 Environmental science: Editing genes in mosquitoes to prevent malaria 🦟 Why it matters: We’re not just observing evolution—we're engineering it! Are you keeping an eye on CRISPR in your field? Let’s connect and discuss the future of gene editing! #CRISPR #Cas9 #GeneEditing #Biotech #MolecularBiology #GeneticEngineering #HealthcareInnovation #FutureOfScience #SyntheticBiology #CRISPRCas9 | 10 comments on LinkedIn
