Shortening the Half-Life of Cas9 Maintains Its Gene Editing Ability and Reduces Neuronal Toxicity
Summary: Virus-mediated expression of CRISPR/Cas9 is commonly used for genome editing in animal brains to model or treat neurological diseases, but the potential neurotoxicity of overexpressing bacterial Cas9 in the mammalian brain remains unknown. Through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis, we find...
