Question 1

What is the main advantage of base editing?

  • It introduces double-stranded breaks.
  • It allows for precise base conversions without breaks.
  • It cannot be used in human cells.

💡 Hint: Focus on what makes it different from traditional methods.

Question 2

True or False: Prime editing is used only for base substitutions.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider its flexibility.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a genetic disorder caused by a single point mutation in a gene. Describe how base editing could be utilized to correct this mutation and what advantages it might offer.

💡 Hint: Think about the target mutation and expected outcome.

Question 2

Prime editing allows for both substitutions and complex edits. If a gene needs an entire sequence deleted and replaced, explain how prime editing would accomplish this with an example.

💡 Hint: Visualize how inputs work in this scenario.
