الوصف: Prime editing is a highly versatile CRISPR-based genome editing technology with the potential to correct the vast majority of pathogenic mutations (1). However, correction of a disease phenotype in vivo in somatic tissues has not been demonstrated thus far. Here, we establish proof-of-concept for in vivo prime editing and repair the metabolic liver disease phenylketonuria (PKU) in mice. We first developed a size-reduced SpCas9 prime editor (PE) lacking the RNaseH domain of the reverse transcriptase (PE2ΔRnH), and a linker- and NLS-optimized intein-split PE construct (PE2 p.1153) for delivery by adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors. Systemic dual AAV-mediated delivery of this variant into the liver of neonatal mice enabled installation of a transversion mutation at the Dnmt1 locus with an average efficiency of 15%, and delivery of unsplit PE2ΔRnH using human adenoviral vector 5 (AdV5) further increased editing rates to 58%. PE2ΔRnH-encoding AdV5 was also used to correct the disease-causing mutation of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (Pah)enu2 allele in phenylketonuria (PKU) mice with an average efficiency of 8% (up to 17.3%), leading to therapeutic reduction of blood phenylalanine (L-Phe) levels. Our study demonstrates in vivo prime editing in the liver with high precision and editing rates sufficient to treat a number of metabolic liver diseases, emphasizing the potential of prime editing for future therapeutic applications.
