Scope and Contents

Contents

A key limitation of the use of the CRISPR–Cas9 system for genome editing and other applications is the requirement that a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) be present at the target site. For the most commonly used Cas9 from
Streptococcus pyogenes
(
Sp
Cas9), the required PAM sequence is NGG. No natural or engineered Cas9 variants that ha...
