Figure Lengend Snippet: Functional correction after duplex base editing. A – D Chromatograms and quantification of HPLC analysis results after each corresponding treatment on D6 of erythropoiesis. A Chromatograms with peaks presenting HbF, HbA and HbA2 hemoglobin. B Quantification of hemoglobin levels expressed as percentage (%). The % of each hemoglobin type was calculated over the total hemoglobin tetramers, ** P= 0.0079, * P= 0.0180. C Chromatograms with peaks representing β, δ, α and γ ( G γ + Α γ) globin. D Quantification of total γ-globin but also separate G γ and A γ expression presented as ratios over α-globin, * P =0.0118 for γ-globin, * P =0.0106 for G γ and * P =0.0265 for Α γ. E – H Quantification of HPLC analysis of ( E ) γ-globin relative to all β-like globins, ( F ) γ-globin relative to β-globin, ( G ) β-globin relative to α-globin and ( H ) δ-globin relative to α-globin, ** P =0.0089, * P =0.0106. I Quantification of HBG protein after immunoblotting on D6 of differentiation normalized to HBA protein and expressed as fold change to the mock, * P =0.0405. Both proteins were first normalized to β-actin protein. J Relative γ-globin mRNA expression after RT-qPCR analysis on D3 of erythroid differentiation, normalized to α-globin and expressed as fold change relative to mock, * P =0.0471. K Quantification of BCL11A protein after immunoblotting on D0 of differentiation, normalized to β-actin protein and expressed as fold change relative to mock. L Relative BCL11A mRNA expression after RT-qPCR analysis on D0 of erythroid differentiation, normalized to endogenous β-actin and expressed as fold change relative to the mock, ** P =0.0035, * P =0.0379. All data are presented as mean±S.D. (n=3, data are based on biological replicates from three independent donors) using ordinary one-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test for P -value

Figure Lengend Snippet: RNA-seq analysis of BFU-E colonies. A Schematic diagram of the study design for RNA-seq analysis. B Flow cytometry analysis for the detection of dead and apoptotic cells after each treatment. Data are presented as % ( n =1). C BFU-E and CFU-GM colony scoring on day 14 for each treatment. Data are presented as % ( n =1). D Left: charts showing the percentage frequency of specific edits detected by Sanger Sequencing for each treatment. Y-axis labels indicate the edit in each allele, where N represents no editing in the one allele (monoallelic). Right: charts showing genotypes for the three colonies selected for further analysis. X-axis indicates the specific edits, with values representing editing status: 100=biallelic, 50=monoallelic, 0=no edit. E Relative HBG mRNA expression after RNA-seq analysis, normalized to HBA and expressed as log 2 fold change relative to mock, * P =0.0325. Data are presented as mean±S.D. ( n =3, data are based on biological replicates from three different BFU-E colonies) using Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparison test

Figure Lengend Snippet: mRNA expression of apoptotic and immune response genes after RNA-seq analysis. Normalized mRNA expression is shown as log 2 fold change of statistically significant ( A-D ) apoptotic and ( E-H ) immune response genes after each treatment. Data are presented as mean±S.D. ( n =3, data are based on biological replicates from three different BFU-E colonies). DESeq2 analysis was performed and adjusted P -values are indicated as follows: *<0.05, **<0.01, ***<0.001, ****<0.0001
