CRISPR-Based Genome Editing and Its Applications in Woody Plants.
CRISPR/Cas-based genome editing technology provides straightforward, proficient, and multifunctional ways for the site-directed modification of organism genomes and genes. The application of CRISPR-based technology in plants has a vast potential value in gene function research, germplasm innovation, and genetic improvement. The complexity of woody plants genome may pose significant challenges in the application and expansion of various new editing techniques, such as Cas9, 12, 13, and 14 effectors, base editing, particularly for timberland species with a long life span, huge genome, and ploidy. Therefore, many novel optimisms have been drawn to molecular breeding research based on woody plants. This review summarizes the recent development of CRISPR/Cas applications for essential traits, including wood properties, flowering, biological stress, abiotic stress, growth, and development in woody plants. We outlined the current problems and future development trends of this technology in germplasm and the improvement of products in woody plants.

Functional Analysis of Variants in BRCA1 Using CRISPR Base Editors.
To date, methods such as fluorescent reporter assays, embryonic stem cell viability assays, and therapeutic drug-based sensitivity assays have been used to evaluate the function of the variants of uncertain significance (VUS) of the BRCA genes. However, these methods have limitations as they are associated with overexpression and do not apply to post-transcriptional regulation. Therefore, there are several VUS whose functions are unclear. Recently, we devised a new way to assess the functionality of variants in BRCA1 via a CRISPR-mediated base editor to overcome these limitations. We precisely introduced the target nucleotide substitution in living cells and identified variants whose functions were not defined. Here, we describe the methods for the functional appraisal of BRCA1 variants using CRISPR-based base editors.

Determinants of Base Editing Outcomes from Target Library Analysis and Machine Learning.
Although base editors are widely used to install targeted point mutations, the factors that determine base editing outcomes are not well understood. We characterized sequence-activity relationships of 11 cytosine and adenine base editors (CBEs and ABEs) on 38,538 genomically integrated targets in mammalian cells and used the resulting outcomes to train BE-Hive, a machine learning model that accurately predicts base editing genotypic outcomes (R ≈ 0.9) and efficiency (R ≈ 0.7). We corrected 3,388 disease-associated SNVs with ≥90% precision, including 675 alleles with bystander nucleotides that BE-Hive correctly predicted would not be edited. We discovered determinants of previously unpredictable C-to-G, or C-to-A editing and used these discoveries to correct coding sequences of 174 pathogenic transversion SNVs with ≥90% precision. Finally, we used insights from BE-Hive to engineer novel CBE variants that modulate editing outcomes. These discoveries illuminate base editing, enable editing at previously intractable targets, and provide new base editors with improved editing capabilities.

New opportunities in the management and treatment of refractory hypercholesterolemia using in vivo CRISPR-mediated genome/base editing.
AIMS: Refractory hypercholesterolemia (RH), caused primarily by the loss-of-function mutation of LDL receptor (LDLR) gene seen in HoFH and HeFH patients, remains a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Statin and ezetimibe combination therapy lower circulating LDL by 30% in HoFH patients. PCSK9 mAB, being an LDLR-dependent therapy, is not effective in HoFH, but lowers LDL by 25% in HeFH patients. A maximum reduction of 50% was noted in HoFH patients treated with ANGPTL3 mAB, which was not enough to achieve therapeutic goal of LDL. Therefore, new approaches are warranted to offer hopes to individuals intolerant to higher dose statins and not able to achieve recommended LDL level. DATA SYNTHESIS: New approaches to lower LDL include gene therapy and gene editing. AAV-based gene therapy has shown encouraging results in animal models. Using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome/base editing, gain of function and loss of function have been successfully done in animal models. Recent progress in the refinement of genome/base editing has overcome the issues of off-target mutagenesis with ∼1% mutagenesis in case of PCSK9 and almost no off-target mutagenesis in inactivating ANGPTL3 in animal models showing 50% reduction in cholesterol. Current approaches using CRISPR-Cas9 genome/base editing targeting LDLR-dependent and LDLR-independent pathways are underway. CONCLUSIONS: The new information on gain of LDLR function and inactivation of ANGPTL3 together with developments in genome/base editing technology to overcome off-target insertion and deletion mutagenesis offer hope to refractory hypercholesterolemic individuals who are at a higher risk of developing ASCVD.

The immune system of prokaryotes: potential applications and implications for gene editing.
Gene therapy has revolutionized the treatment of genetic diseases. Spearheading this revolution are sophisticated genome editing methods such as TALENs, ZFNs, and CRISPR-Cas, which trace their origins back to prokaryotic immune systems. Prokaryotes have developed various antiviral defense systems to combat viral attacks and the invasion of genetic elements. The comprehension of these defense mechanisms has paved the way for the development of indispensable tools in molecular biology. Among them, restriction endonuclease originates from the innate immune system of bacteria. The CRISPR-Cas system, a widely applied genome editing technology, is derived from the prokaryotic adaptive immune system. Single-base editing is a precise editing tool based on CRISPR-Cas system that involves deamination of target base. It is worth noting that prokaryotes possess deamination enzymes as part of their defense arsenal over foreign genetic material. Furthermore, prokaryotic Argonauts (pAgo) proteins, also function in anti-phage defense, play an important role in complementing the CRISPR-Cas system by addressing certain limitations it may have. Recent studies have also shed light on the significance of Retron, a reverse transcription transposon previously showed potential in genome editing, has also come to light in the realm of prokaryotic immunity. These noteworthy findings highlight the importance of studying prokaryotic immune system for advancing genome editing techniques. Here, both the origin of prokaryotic immunity underlying aforementioned genome editing tools, and potential applications of deaminase, pAgo protein and reverse transcriptase in genome editing among prokaryotes were introduced, thus emphasizing the fundamental mechanism and significance of prokaryotic immunity.

Base editing for precision therapeutics.
Base editing (BE), the precise installation of single-nucleotide changes in DNA or RNA without inducing double-strand breaks, holds substantial therapeutic promise for correcting single-nucleotide variants, which constitute more than half of the known pathogenic genetic variants. Recent advances have improved base editor specificity, efficiency, and delivery, enabling clinically oriented procedures. Clinically, BE has shown early success or strong translational promise in sickle cell disease, β-thalassemia, leukemia (via CAR T and epitope engineering), hypercholesterolemia (PCSK9 and ANGPTL3), alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, and glycogen storage disease type Ia. Key remaining challenges include bystander editing within the activity window, residual off-target DNA and RNA editing, delivery constraints (payload size, tissue targeting, and redosing limits), immunogenicity, and the need for durable long-term safety evidence across relevant cell types and disease contexts. Continued technological refinements, careful preclinical validation, and rigorous clinical assessment will be essential to fully realize BE's transformative potential in precision medicine.

Fishing for understanding: Unlocking the zebrafish gene editor's toolbox.
The rapid growth of the field of gene editing can largely be attributed to the discovery and optimization of designer endonucleases. These include zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and clustered regular interspersed short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) systems including Cas9, Cas12a, and structure-guided nucleases. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have proven to be a powerful model system for genome engineering testing and applications due to their external development, high fecundity, and ease of housing. As the zebrafish gene editing toolkit continues to grow, it is becoming increasingly important to understand when and how to utilize which of these technologies for maximum efficacy in a particular project. While CRISPR-Cas9 has brought broad attention to the field of genome engineering in recent years, designer endonucleases have been utilized in genome engineering for more than two decades. This chapter provides a brief overview of designer endonuclease and other gene editing technologies in zebrafish as well as some of their known functional benefits and limitations depending on specific project goals. Finally, selected prospects for additional gene editing tools are presented, promising additional options for directed genomic programming of this versatile animal model system.
