Structure-Guided design of Cas12a variants improves detection of nucleic acids

CRISPR-Cas12a holds promising potential for pathogen detection. However, its performance is not optimal when combined with isothermal amplification. Hence, we engineered a mutant of LbCas12a (K595A) with reduced cis-cleavage activity, to minimize interference with isothermal amplification. Compared...
