AbstractCRISPR/Cas9‐gene editing has emerged as a revolutionary technology to easily modify specific genomic loci by designing complementary sgRNA sequences and introducing these into cells along with Cas9. Self‐cloning CRISPR/Cas9 (scCRISPR) uses a self‐cleaving palindromic sgRNA plasmid (sgPal) that recombines with short PCR‐amplified site‐specific ...

CRISPR-Cas Systems for Detection of Nucleic Acids: PCR Empire now has a Vigorous Rival! [PDF]
Rapid and accurate detection of nucleic acids is essential in many fields of modern biology and medical diagnosis of pathogens. PCR has some disadvantages for performing this task, and therefore demand for an alternative is highly appreciated.

CRISPR loci consist of an array of short repeats separated by spacer sequences that match the genome of viruses and plasmids that infect prokaryotes. Transcription of the CRISPR array generates small antisense RNAs that mediate immunity against these invaders.

CRISPR-Cas12–based detection of SARS-CoV-2
An outbreak of betacoronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-CoV-2 began in Wuhan, China in December 2019. COVID-19, the disease associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, rapidly spread to produce a global pandemic.

CRISPR-based diagnostics [PDF]
The accurate and timely diagnosis of disease is a prerequisite for efficient therapeutic intervention and epidemiological surveillance. Diagnostics based on the detection of nucleic acids are among the most sensitive and specific, yet most such assays require costly equipment and trained personnel.

Improved vectors and genome-wide libraries for CRISPR screening
Genome-wide, targeted loss-of-function pooled screens using the CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome repeats)–associated nuclease Cas9 in human and mouse cells provide an alternative screening system to RNA interference (RNAi) and ...

Off-target effects in CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
Gene editing stands for the methods to precisely make changes to a specific nucleic acid sequence. With the recent development of the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 system, gene editing has become efficient ...

A Unique B-Family DNA Polymerase Facilitating Error-Prone DNA Damage Tolerance in Crenarchaeota
Sulfolobus islandicus codes for four DNA polymerases: three are of the B-family (Dpo1, Dpo2, and Dpo3), and one is of the Y-family (Dpo4). Western analysis revealed that among the four polymerases, only Dpo2 exhibited DNA damage-inducible expression.
