Following Cas9 cleavage, DNA repair without a donor template is generally considered stochastic, heterogeneous and impractical beyond gene disruption. Here, we show that template-free Cas9 editing is predictable and capable of precise repair to a pre...
Synthetic lethality is the synthesis of mutations leading to cell death. Tumor-specific synthetic lethality has been targeted in research to improve cancer therapy. With the advances of techniques in molecular biology, such as RNAi and CRISPR/Cas9 ge...
The adaptation of the CRISPR-Cas9 system as a genome editing technique has generated much excitement in recent years owing to its ability to manipulate targeted genes and genomic regions that are complementary to a programmed single guide RNA (sgRNA)...
BACKGROUND: Genome editing in human iPS cells is a powerful approach in regenerative medicine. CRISPR-Cas9 is the most common genome editing tool, but it often induces byproduct insertions and deletions in addition to the desired edits. Therefore, ge...
Organoids, 3D cellular models derived from stem cells, have revolutionized drug testing by providing human-relevant systems for modeling diseases and testing drug efficacy. Unlike traditional 2D cell cultures or animal models, organoids closely resem...
Despite advances in determining the factors influencing cleavage activity of a CRISPR-Cas9 single guide RNA (sgRNA) at an (off-)target DNA sequence, a comprehensive assessment of pertinent physico-chemical/structural descriptors is missing. In partic...
Genome editing technologies have emerged as the keystone of biotechnological research, enabling precise gene modification. The field has evolved rapidly through revolutionary advancements, transitioning from early explorations to the breakthrough of ...
With the widespread application of the CRISPR-Cas system in gene editing and related fields, along with the increasing availability of metagenomic data, the demand for detecting and classifying CRISPR-Cas systems in metagenomic data sets has grown si...
BACKGROUND: Adenine base editors (ABEs) enable the conversion of A•T to G•C base pairs. Since the sequence of the target locus influences base editing efficiency, efforts have been made to develop computational models that can predict base editing ou...
