Today in @NatureBiotech, we describe first-gen click editors (CEs), which couple the advantageous properties of DNA-dependent DNA polymerases and HUH endonucleases with RNA-programmable nickases for precise and versatile human genome editing. 🧬

Thrilled to see our click editing paper out today in @NatureBiotech! 🚀 Click Editors (CEs) are a new class of genome writers which combine DNA polymerases and HUH endonucleases with RNA-programmable nickases for precise edits without DNA DSBs🧬✨
