Phosphorothioate-modified DNA oligonucleotides inactivate CRISPR-Cpf1 mediated genome editing
2018-02-06
Abstract excerpt
CRISPR-Cpf1, a microbial adaptive immune system discovered from Prevotella and Francisella 1, employs a single-stranded CRISPR RNA (crRNA) to induce double stranded DNA breaks 1 . To modulate genome editing activity of Cpf1 in human cells, we designed a series of crRNA variants including DNA-crRNA and RNA-crRNA duplexes, and identified that phosphorothioate (PS)-modified DNA-crRNA duplex completely blocked the...
