Structure‐Guided Engineering of a Cas12i Nuclease Unlocks Near‐PAMless Genome Editing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CRISPR‐Cas nucleases are limited by PAM requirements, restricting genome accessibility. Structure‐guided engineering of the compact Cas12i nuclease SF01 produced three variants with near‐PAMless, enabling efficient editing at diverse 5'‐NNTN‐3' sites. These nucleases expand the editable portion of the human genome more than fourfold, enabling efficient
