Abstract excerpt
Both RNA- and protein-based strategies have been developed to mitigate off-target cleavage by CRISPR-Cas9, yielding noncanonical guide RNAs (gRNAs) and Cas9 variants with enhanced gene-editing precision. However, the molecular mechanisms by which such PAM-distal alterations─remote from the nuclease centers─modulate Cas9 activity and specificity remain incompletely understood. Here, we performed near-millisecond...
