Cpf1 is a single RNA-guided endonuclease of a class 2 CRISPR-Cas system.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors characterized Cpf1, a putative class 2 CRISPR effector, which is a single RNA-guided endonuclease lacking tracrRNA and utilizes a T-rich protospacer-adjacent motif.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA targeting with CRISPR-Cas13.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the class 2 type VI RNA-guided RNA-targeting CRISPR–Cas effector Cas13a (previously known as C2c2) can be engineered for mammalian cell RNA knockdown and binding and is established as a flexible platform for studying RNA in mammalian cells and therapeutic development.

Cpf1 Is a Single RNA-Guided Endonuclease of a Class 2 CRISPR-Cas System

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Cpf1 mediates robust DNA interference with features distinct from Cas9, and this mechanism of interference broadens the understanding of CRISPR-Cas systems and advances their genome editing applications.
