Abstract excerpt
CRISPR/Cas systems are used for genome editing, both in basic science and in biotechnology. However, CRISPR/Cas editors have several limitations, including insufficient specificity leading to "off-targets" and the dependence of activity on chromatin state. A number of highly specific Cas9 variants have now been obtained, but most of them are characterized by reduced activity on eukaryotic chromatin. We identified...
