Cytosine base editing systems with minimized off-target effect and molecular size

Base editing is promising for gene therapy, but in vivo delivery has been limiting. Here the authors perform structure-based rational engineering of the cytosine base editing system Target-AID to minimise off-target effects and decrease its size.
