We present self-cloning CRISPR/Cas9 (scCRISPR), a technology that allows for CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genomic mutation and site-specific knockin transgene creation within several hours by circumventing the need to clone a site-specific single-guide RNA (sgRNA) or knockin homology construct for each target locus.

Physical Model of the Immune Response of Bacteria Against Bacteriophage Through the Adaptive CRISPR-Cas Immune System [PDF]
Bacteria and archaea have evolved an adaptive, heritable immune system that recognizes and protects against viruses or plasmids. This system, known as the CRISPR-Cas system, allows the host to recognize and incorporate short foreign DNA or RNA sequences,

CRISPR/Cas9-induced (CTG⋅CAG)n repeat instability in the myotonic dystrophy type 1 locus: implications for therapeutic genome editing [PDF]
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is caused by (CTG⋅CAG)n-repeat expansion within the DMPK gene and thought to be mediated by a toxic RNA gain of function.

Highly Efficient Site-Specific Mutagenesis in Malaria Mosquitoes Using CRISPR. [PDF]
Anopheles mosquitoes transmit at least 200 million annual malaria infections worldwide. Despite considerable genomic resources, mechanistic understanding of biological processes in Anopheles has been hampered by a lack of tools for reverse genetics. Here,

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

Anti‐CRISPRs: The natural inhibitors for CRISPR‐Cas systems [PDF]
AbstractCRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)‐Cas (CRISPR associated protein) systems serve as the adaptive immune system by which prokaryotes defend themselves against phages. It has also been developed into a series of powerful gene‐editing tools. As the natural inhibitors of CRISPR‐Cas systems, anti‐CRISPRs (Acrs) can be

The precise magic of CRISPR [PDF]
In this issue of FEBS Open Bio, Shen Li et al., in the laboratory of Hector L. Franco (University of North Carolina), provide a proof‐of‐principle solution for correcting all copies of a gene in the widely used MCF7 breast cancer cell line. The gene for the FOXA1 pioneer transcription factor is localised on chromosome 14, which is present at least 4–5 ...

Summary: Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) have been regarded as indispensable replication factors. Herein, we report that the genes encoding the canonical SSB (SisSSB) and the non-canonical SSB (SisDBP) in Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A are ...
