Orthogonal DNA replication system-based continuous evolution enables user-defined genes to undergo a hypermutagenic evolutionary state through a replication process independent of the host genome, while maintaining overall cellular stability. However, its application is constrained by the relatively low mutation rate o...
Fusarium venenatum is the most widely used filamentous fungus for biomass-based microbial protein production mainly used as meat analogs. However, insufficient iterative genome editing and lack of synthetic biology tools for fine-tuning gene expression limited engineering of F. venenatum for improved traits. Here, repl...

Base editors (BEs) enable efficient A-to-G or C-to-T conversions without double-stranded DNA cleavage, but their editing windows remain difficult to tune, limiting genome engineering flexibility. Here, we engineered CRISPR/Cas12b sgRNA by introducing MS2 hairpins to recruit an MS2-N55K-cytidine deaminase-UGI complex, e...
