PAM recognition by miniature CRISPR–Cas12f nucleases triggers programmable double-stranded DNA target cleavage

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, CRISPR-associated (Cas) nucleases have revolutionized the genome editing field. Being guided by an RNA to cleave double-stranded (ds) DNA targets near a short sequence termed a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM), Cas9 and Cas12 offer unprecedented flexibility, however, more compact versions would simplify delivery and extend application. Here, we present a collection of 10 exceptionally compact...
