RNase P-Mediated Sequence-Specific Cleavage of RNA by Engineered External Guide Sequences

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
The RNA cleavage activity of RNase P can be employed to decrease the levels of specific RNAs and to study their function or even to eradicate pathogens. Two different technologies have been developed to use RNase P as a tool for RNA knockdown.

Short RNA guides cleavage by eukaryotic RNase III.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
In eukaryotes, short RNAs guide a variety of enzymatic activities that range from RNA editing to translation repression. It is hypothesized that pre-existing proteins evolved to bind and use guide RNA during evolution.

Multi-locus CRISPRi targeting with a single truncated guide RNA [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
A critical goal in functional genomics is evaluating which non-coding elements contribute to gene expression, cellular function, and disease. Functional characterization remains a challenge due to the abundance and complexity of candidate elements. Here,

Mitochondrial RNA editing in Trypanoplasma borreli: New tools, new revelations

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
The kinetoplastids are unicellular flagellates that derive their name from the ‘kinetoplast’, a region within their single mitochondrion harboring its organellar genome of high DNA content, called kinetoplast (k) DNA.

PlmCas12e (CasX2) cleavage of CCR5: impact of guide RNA spacer length and PAM sequence on cleavage activity

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2023
Gene editing using CRISPR/Cas (clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated) is under development as a therapeutic tool for the modification of genes in eukaryotic cells.

Transcriptome-wide Cas13 guide RNA design for model organisms and viral RNA pathogens

open access: yesCell Genomics, 2021
Summary: The recent characterization of RNA-targeting CRISPR nucleases has enabled diverse transcriptome engineering and screening applications that depend crucially on prediction and selection of optimized CRISPR guide RNAs (gRNAs).
