100% in on $PRME Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse struggled so hard that…





Today in @NatureBiotech we report a new suit of PE8 prime editor proteins. PE8 variants were developed from laboratory-evolved PE6 proteins using AI-guided protein redesign. This approach combines recent advances in computational protein design and directed evolution to increase prime editing efficiency, especially in transient therapeutically relevant delivery settings such as mRNA+pegRNA electroporation into primary cells, eVLP delivery of prime editing RNPs, and LNP-mediated mRNA+pegRNA delivery in mice. drive.google.com/file/d/13VTcAs… 1/11

A new study employs AAV vectors and RNA-lipid nanoparticles to deliver a prime editor to correct citrullinemia type I in neonatal and juvenile mice, highlighting the technology’s potential for genetic liver disorders. @schwanklab @UZH_IPT #GeneTherapy scim.ag/49BakIl

Today in @NatBiotech, we report the directed evolution of structured RNA motifs that enhance the efficiency of prime editing. Iterated high-throughput pooled screens and mutagenesis of these small RNA elements improved transient pegRNA lifetime. drive.google.com/file/d/1Nyt_SS… 1/11

Immedica Pharma announced today that it has sold the priority review voucher they received in Feb for $200M . the PRV market is hot 🔥

Great week at #ASGCT2026. Proud to see our colleagues share this work: Vivian Choi – Prime Editing in Wilson disease models and Rachel Cohen – AI-assisted potency assay validation. Grateful to the broader Prime team & the scientific community driving progress in genetic medicine.



Today in @ScienceTM, we report the use of in vivo adenine base editing to correct a variant causing Dravet syndrome, a severe childhood epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorder, substantially ameliorating disease symptoms and extending lifespan in an animal model. 1/13 drive.google.com/file/d/12rcxew…
