Covalent linkage of the DNA repair template to the CRISPR/Cas9 complex enhances homology-directed repair
2017-11-11
Abstract excerpt
The CRISPR/Cas9 targeted nuclease technology allows the insertion of genetic modifications with single base-pair precision. The preference of mammalian cells to repair Cas9-induced DNA double-strand breaks via non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) rather than via homology-directed repair (HDR) however leads to relatively low rates of correctly edited loci. Here we demonstrate that covalently linking the DNA repair tem...
