CRISPR-Cas13a Cleavage of Dengue Virus NS3 Gene Efficiently Inhibits Viral Replication
5 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
The CRISPR-Cas9 system has been applied to DNA editing with precision in eukaryotic and prokaryotic systems, but it is unable to edit RNA directly. A recently developed CRISPR-Cas13a system has been shown to be capable of effectively knocking down RNA expression in mammalian and plant cells. In this study, we employ the CRISPR-Cas13a system to achieve reprogrammable inactivation of dengue virus in mammalian...
