Abstract excerpt
There have been many engineered Cas9 variants that were developed to minimize unintended cleavage of off-target DNAs, but detailed mechanism for the way they regulate the target specificity through DNA:RNA heteroduplexation remains poorly understood. We used single-molecule FRET assay to follow the dynamics of DNA:RNA heteroduplexation for various engineered Cas9 variants with respect to on-target and off-target...
