Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the result of abnormal processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by β-secretase and γ-secretase, which leads to the formation of toxic β-amyloid peptides. The toxic β-amyloid peptides induce neuron death, memory problems, and AD development. Several APP mutations increase the risk of developing early-onset AD. However, the A673T mutation identified in the Icelandic population prevents AD development by reducing the cleavage of APP by β-secretase. In this study, we inserted the A673T mutation in human cells using the CRISPR prime editing (PE) technique. Repeated PE treatments resulted in the insertion of the A673T mutation in up to 49.2% of APP genes when a second nick was induced in the other DNA strand. When the protospacer adjacent motif used for PE was also mutated, up to 68.9% of the APP genes contained the protective A673T mutation. PE is a promising approach to introduce the A673T mutation precisely without mutating nearby nucleotides.
