Sumoylation of Cas9 at lysine 848 regulates protein stability and DNA binding
Cas9 is sumoylated and ubiquitylated in human cells. K848 is the major SUMO2/3 modification site, but multiple lysines are ubiquitylated, precipitating proteasomal degradation.

Simplified Gene Knockout by CRISPR-Cas9-Induced Homologous Recombination
Genetic engineering of industrial cell lines often requires knockout of multiple endogenous genes. Tools like CRISPR-Cas9 have enabled serial or parallelized gene disruption in a wide range of industrial organisms, but common practices for the screening ...

Two-Metal Ion Mechanism of DNA Cleavage in CRISPR-Cas9
CRISPR-Cas9 is a cutting-edge genome-editing technology, which employs the endonuclease Cas9 to cleave DNA sequences of interest. However, the catalytic mechanism of DNA cleavage and the critical role of the Mg2+ ions have remained elusive. Here, quantum–
