中文摘要
大多数癌症编码突变功能未知,限制了对其生物学和治疗意义的解读。虽然先导编辑(prime editing)能够实现精确的基因组改变,但突变往往位于不利于当前先导编辑向导RNA(pegRNA)设计的序列背景中。在此,我们开发了CodonPrime,一种先导编辑框架,它利用突变位点周围的密码子简并性来大幅扩展其pegRNA靶向集合。我们利用该方法筛选了跨越298个癌症基因的约2500个编码突变,使氨基酸编辑效率相较于传统先导编辑提高了9.2倍。约10%的编码突变增强了细胞生长,重现了已知的致癌热点,并揭示了以往未表征突变的致癌潜力(如HNF1A R272C)。我们的分析揭示了旁系同源基因中的显性效应(如RHOBTB1/2)以及突变表型在通路中的组织方式(如PI3K-MTOR信号传导)。我们构建了一个通用型转换器(transformer)用于设计CodonPrime pegRNA,从而实现对人类编码变异的可扩展性研究。

Most cancer coding mutations are of unknown function, limiting their biological and therapeutic interpretation. While prime editing enables precise genomic alterations, mutations often reside in sequence contexts unfavorable to current prime-editing guide RNA (pegRNA) designs. Here we develop CodonPrime, a prime-editing framework that exploits codon degeneracy surrounding a mutation site to substantially expand its targeting set of pegRNAs. We use this approach to screen ~2500 coding mutations spanning 298 cancer genes, yielding a 9.2-fold increase in amino-acid editing efficiency over conventional prime editing. Approximately 10% of coding mutations enhance cell growth, recovering known oncogenic hotspots and revealing oncogenic potential for previously uncharacterized mutations (e.g. HNF1A R272C ). Our analysis uncovers dominant effects in paralogous genes (e.g. RHOBTB1/2) and organization of mutant phenotypes in pathways (e.g. PI3K-MTOR signaling). We formulate a general-purpose transformer for design of CodonPrime pegRNAs, enabling scalable interrogation of human coding variants.
