A single guide RNA (sgRNA) directs Cas9 nuclease for gene-specific scission of double-stranded DNA. High Cas9 activity is essential for efficient gene editing to generate gene deletions and gene replacements by homologous recombination. However, cleavage efficiency is below 50% for more than half of randomly selected sgRNA sequences in human cell culture screens or model organisms.

The post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression plays an important role in heart development and disease. Cardiac-specific alternative splicing, mediated by RNA-binding proteins, orchestrates the isoform switching of proteins that are essential for cardiomyocyte organization and contraction. Dysfunctions of RNA-binding proteins impair heart development and cause the main types of cardiomyopathies, which represent a heterogenous group of abnormalities that severely affect heart structure and function.

There is growing scientific evidence for the crucial role of post-transcriptional RNA modifications in carcinogenesis, progression, metastasis, and drug resistance across various cancer entities. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant type of RNA modification. m6A is coordinated by a dynamic interplay of ‘writers’ (METTL3, METTL4, METTL14, WTAP, KIAA1429), ‘erasers’ (FTO, ALKBH5), and ‘readers’ (HNRNPA2B1, HNRNPC, YTHDC1, YTHDC1, YTHDF1-3).
