A genomic sequence of the type II-A clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated system in Mycoplasma salivarium strain ATCC 29803

open access: yesJournal of Oral Microbiology, 2022
Introduction Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated systems are RNA-mediated adaptive immune systems that actagainst invading genetic elements such as phages or plasmids.

Switchable Cas9

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2017
Ever since its discovery, Cas9 from Streptococcus pyogenes has revolutionized biology by enabling analysis and engineering of genomes with unprecedented precision and ease. To fine-tune on-target effects and to mitigate adverse effects caused by untimely and off-target action of Cas9, strategies have been developed to control its activity at the post ...

Tunable Transcriptional Interference at the Endogenous Alcohol Dehydrogenase Gene Locus in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Neighboring sequences of a gene can influence its expression. In the phenomenon known as transcriptional interference, transcription at one region in the genome can repress transcription at a nearby region in cis. Transcriptional interference occurs at a

Germline Cas9 expression yields highly efficient genome engineering in a major worldwide disease vector, Aedes aegypti. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The development of CRISPR/Cas9 technologies has dramatically increased the accessibility and efficiency of genome editing in many organisms. In general, in vivo germline expression of Cas9 results in substantially higher activity than embryonic injection.

Evaluating the feasibility of Cas9 overexpression in 3T3-L1 cells for generation of genetic knock-out adipocyte cell lines

open access: yesAdipocyte, 2021
Cell lines recapitulating physiological processes can represent alternatives to animal or human studies. The 3T3-L1 cell line is used to mimic adipocyte function and differentiation. Since transfection of 3T3-L1 cells is difficult, we used a modified 3T3-

Potential Application of the CRISPR/Cas9 System against Herpesvirus Infections. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been applied in the genome editing and disruption of latent infections for herpesviruses such as the herpes simplex virus, Epstein⁻Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.

Targeted genome modifications in soybean with CRISPR/Cas9 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The ability to selectively alter genomic DNA sequences in vivo is a powerful tool for basic and applied research. The CRISPR/Cas9 system precisely mutates DNA sequences in a number of organisms.

Reactivating Fetal Hemoglobin Expression in Human Adult Erythroblasts Through BCL11A Knockdown Using Targeted Endonucleases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We examined the efficiency, specificity, and mutational signatures of zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcriptional activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas9 systems designed to
