Abstract

Expanding mitochondrial base editing tools with broad sequence compatibility is of high need for both research and therapeutic purposes. In this study, we identify a DddA homolog from Simiaoa sunii (Ddd_Ss) which can efficiently deaminate cytosine in DC context in double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). We successfully develop Ddd_Ss-derived cytosine base editors (DdCBE_Ss) and introduce mutations at multiple mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) loci including disease-associated mtDNA mutations in previously inaccessible GC context. Finally, by introducing a single amino acid substitution from Ddd_Ss, we successfully improve the activity and sequence compatibility of DdCBE derived from DddA of Burkholderia cenocepacia (DdCBE_Bc). Our study expands mtDNA editing tool boxes and provides resources for further screening and engineering dsDNA base editors for biological and therapeutic applications.
