Structural basis for target DNA cleavage and guide RNA processing by CRISPR-Casλ2

Structural basis for target DNA cleavage and guide RNA processing by CRISPR-Casλ2

Abstract RNA-guided CRISPR-Cas nucleases are widely used as versatile genome-engineering tools. Among the diverse CRISPR-Cas effectors, CRISPR-Casλ—also referred to as Cas12n—is a recently identified miniature type V nuclease encoded in phage genomes. Given its demonstrated nuclease activity in both...
