Mismatch Intolerance of 5′-Truncated sgRNAs in CRISPR/Cas9 Enables Efficient Microbial Single-Base Genome Editing

The CRISPR/Cas9 system has recently emerged as a useful gene-specific editing tool. However, this approach occasionally results in the digestion of both the DNA target and similar DNA sequences due to mismatch tolerance, which remains a significant drawback of current genome editing technologies. Ho...
