Abstract excerpt
To explore the editing specificity of CRISPR/Cpf1 system, effects of target mutation were systematically examined using a reporter activation assay, with a set of single-nucleotide mutated target site. Consistent with our previous study performed with CRISPR/Cas9, a "core" sequence region that is highly sensitive to target mutation was characterized. The region is of 4-nucleotide long, located from +4 to +7...
