Cas9 exo-endonuclease eliminates chromosomal translocations during genome editing
Chromosomal structural variations induced by CRISPR/Cas hinder its application in clinics. Here, the authors fuse Cas9 with optimized TREX2 to generate Cas9TX, which can prevent perfect repair and inhibit repeated cleavage.

Comprehensive assessment of miniature CRISPR-Cas12f nucleases for gene disruption
CRISPR-Cas12f nucleases can be effectively packaged into AAVs for gene therapy, but a systematic evaluation of editing outcomes is lacking. Here the authors perform a comprehensive assessment of 4 Cas12f proteins and compare to Cas9 and two Cas12a ...
