Breaking the Efficiency Barrier in Dicot Prime Editing: The Journey with Tomato and Arabidopsis
Our recent Nature Plants paper reveals prime editing breakthroughs in dicot plants like tomatoes and Arabidopsis. By integrating novel components, we overcame efficiency challenges, achieving high rates of inheritable edits. This post explores our research journey and the innovations behind it.
Membrane topography variations cause apparent protein clustering
Apparent clustering of membrane proteins occurs upon failing to account for membrane topography variations. This we demonstrate and present a remedy for. Our data suggest that the high incidence of clustering reported misrepresents biology of consequence for our conceptional understanding.
