Ddd-Aderived cytosine base editors (DdCBEs) are important for research of mitochondrial DNA mutation diseases. Here the authors report a strategy for screening and characterising dsDNA cytidine deaminases, and identify 7 DddA homologs which they optimise to minimise nuclear and mitochondrial off-target editing.
