''New preclinical data demonstrated that SLEEK results in the knock-in of multiple clinically relevant transgenes through a proprietary process that selects for cells containing the knock-in cargo. In addition, high percentage knock-in efficiencies were enabled by Editas Medicine’s proprietary engineered AsCas12a nuclease. More than 90 percent knock-in efficiencies were observed in various clinically relevant target cells, including iPSCs, T cells, and NK cells. Additionally, SLEEK may be used to fine-tune the expression levels of transgene cargos, an important attribute of next-generation cell therapy medicines.'' https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/08/20/2284285/0/en/Editas-Medicine-Presents-Data-on-New-SLEEK-Gene-Editing-Technology-at-Cold-Spring-Harbor-Laboratory-s-Genome-Engineering-CRISPR-Frontiers-Meeting.html
