Expanding the CRISPR toolbox in Culicine mosquitoes: in vitro validation of Pol III promoters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
CRISPR–Cas9-based “gene drive” technologies have been proposed as a novel and effective means of controlling human diseases vectored by mosquitoes. However, more complex designs than those demonstrated to date—and an expanded molecular toolbox with which

Nucleozymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Nucleozymes containing ribonucleotides and deoxyribonucleotides or nucleic acid analogues are described herein. The nucleozymes have catalytic activity and are significantly more resistant to degradation than their all-RNA ribozyme counterparts.
