Later base editors' generations built upon this system to increase efficiency and reduce off-target indel formation.
“Later base editors’ generations built upon this system to increase efficiency and reduce off-target indel formation [83,84,85].”
From CRISPR-Cas: Converting A Bacterial Defence Mechanism into A State-of-the-Art Genetic Manipulation Tool (2019) · cites this paper as [84]
The paper’s introductory passage (indexed under Abstract; no page given) says the third-generation editor BE3 achieves higher efficiency and lower indel frequency than other genome-editing methods. Its account of the newer variants instead emphasizes expanded targeting and improved selectivity, including reduced off-target base editing—not reduced off-target indel formation. It also reports decreased editing efficiency for some variants. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
