A catalogue of biochemically diverse CRISPR-Cas9 orthologs

A catalogue of biochemically diverse CRISPR-Cas9 orthologs

A few bacterial Cas9 nucleases have been repurposed as genome editing tools. Here, the authors use bioinformatic and biochemical analyses to characterize 79 Cas9 proteins, revealing substantial functional diversity and thus expanding the available toolbox of RNA-programmable CRISPR-associated nuclea...
