stem-loop PEs

Construct Pattern·Research·Since 2022

Also known as: sPEs

Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Architecture. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.

Summary

Stem-loop prime editors (sPEs) are modified prime editing guide RNA constructs in which stem-loop aptamers are added to the 3′ terminus of the pegRNA. This altered pegRNA architecture is used as a basis for tethered prime editors and for split pegRNA prime editor configurations.

Usefulness & Problems

Why this is useful

sPEs are useful because they directly address concerns that the 3′ extension of pegRNAs can impair pegRNA stability or folding and thereby compromise prime editing activity. The stem-loop architecture also provides a modular handle for building tethered and split prime editing systems.

Source:

The resulting split pegRNA prime editors (SnPEs) maintain the PE activity and increase flexibility.

Problem solved

This construct pattern helps solve the problem that the 3′ extension of pegRNAs may negatively affect pegRNA stability or folding, reducing prime editing performance. It also addresses the engineering need for more flexible prime editor architectures, including tethered and split formats.

Problem links

Need conditional recombination or state switching

Derived

Stem-loop prime editors (sPEs) are prime editing guide RNA constructs generated by adding stem-loop aptamers to the 3′ terminus of the pegRNA. This design modifies the pegRNA architecture and can also serve as a basis for tethered or split prime editing configurations.

Need controllable genome or transcript editing

Derived

Stem-loop prime editors (sPEs) are prime editing guide RNA constructs generated by adding stem-loop aptamers to the 3′ terminus of the pegRNA. This design modifies the pegRNA architecture and can also serve as a basis for tethered or split prime editing configurations.

sPEs are constructed by adding stem-loop aptamers at the 3′ terminus of the pegRNA. The resulting modified pegRNAs can be tethered to Cas9 nickase to form tethered PEs, or split into an sgRNA and a prime RNA to create split pegRNA prime editors.

Source-backed strengths

The design is explicitly modular, because the same stem-loop-modified pegRNA framework was used to generate both tethered PEs and split pegRNA prime editors. The available evidence supports a clear and simple engineering strategy: addition of 3′ stem-loop aptamers to pegRNA followed by optional tethering or splitting.
