Development of the CRISPR nuclease Cas9 for high precision mammalian genome engineering

Recent advances in genome engineering technologies based on the CRISPR-associated RNA-guided endonuclease Cas9 are enabling the systematic interrogation of genome function. Analogous to the search function in modern word processors, Cas9 can be guided to specific locations within complex genomes by...
