Researchers Identify the Best-Performing Cas Nuclease |
CRISPR-mediated genome editing has been applied in several plants using several types of Cas nucleases. However, these nucleases have not been directly compared with each other to determine which enzyme is best performing in terms of efficiency and specificity. Thus, researcher Nicola Patron from Earlham Institute in the United Kingdom and colleagues take the liberty in performing this comparison, as they report their findings in bioRxiv.
