System for inducing mutation based on optimized activation-induced cytidine deaminase

Abstract

The present application provides a mutant protein of activation-induced cytidine deaminase, wherein the mutant protein has the following mutations when compared to hsAID: T82I, K10E, K34E, E156G, 181*, S38C, H130R, V152A, R174G, and T110A. The present application also provides a high-efficiency base editor, including the mutant protein of activation-induced cytidine deaminase of the present application and a DNA-specific binding protein, which are linked sequentially via a linking sequence. The present application also provides a targeted single-base editing system, including a targeted single-base editing protein and a target hyper mutation fragment. Compared with the existing single-base editing system based on activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID), the system for inducing the mutant protein of the present application has a smaller molecular weight and higher mutation efficiency.
