Template-based gene editing using hybridized guide nucleic acids
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240011023A1) discloses a novel hybridized guide nucleic acid for use with a template-based editor. The invention comprises a first polynucleotide with a guide nucleic acid element and a hybridization sequence, along with a second polynucleotide containing an editing template as the guide nucleic acid element. These polynucleotides have complementary hybridization sequences that are hybridized to each other, enabling precise editing in the template-based editor system. Additionally, the patent claims a method for forming the hybridized guide nucleic acid by hybridizing each polynucleotide to another, ensuring the hybridization sequences align correctly for effective editing.
Furthermore, the patent extends to a template-based gene editor system incorporating the hybridized guide nucleic acid, along with pharmaceutical compositions containing the editor system and lipid nanoparticles. The composition of the hybridized guide nucleic acid includes multiple polynucleotides, each with a gRNA element and a hybridization sequence, engineered to hybridize and form a functional guide nucleic acid for template-based editing. This innovative approach offers a promising solution for precise genetic editing, with potential applications in various fields requiring targeted modifications at the nucleic acid level.
