Design of CRISPR-Cas12a (Cpf1) guide RNAs
The CRISPR-Cas12a (TTTN + 23bp) System allows targeting of alternative sites that are not available to the CRISPR-Cas9 System and produces a staggered cut with a 5′ overhang. More ....
Advantages:
- Enables genome editing in organisms with AT-rich genomes
- Allows interrogation of additional genomic regions compared to Cas9
