Abstract excerpt
CRISPR-Cas proteins are RNA-guided nucleases used to introduce double-stranded breaks (DSBs) at targeted genomic loci. DSBs are repaired by endogenous cellular pathways such as non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homology-directed repair (HDR). Providing an exogenous DNA template during repair allows for the intentional, precise incorporation of a desired mutation via the HDR pathway. However, rates of repair...
