CRISPR/Cas9 gRNA activity depends on free energy changes and on the target PAM context | Nature Communications
A major drawback of CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing is that not all guide RNAs (gRNAs) efficiently cleave target DNA. Although the heterogeneity of gRNA activity is well recognized, the exact way in which CRISPR-Cas9 activity is regulated is not fully understood. In a recent study, a team of researchers used an energy-based model to identify the […]
