RNA-Activated CRISPR/Cas12a Nanorobots Operating in Live Cells
Abstract The active clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR/Cas12a) system possesses cis-cleavage (targeting) and trans-cleavage (off-target) activities, which are highly useful for genome engineering and diagnostic applications. Both single-stranded and double-stranded DNA can activate crRNA−Cas12a ribonucleoprotein (RNP), enabling its cis and trans cleavage enzymatic activities. However, whether RNA can activate the CRISPR/Cas12a system and … Read more
