Journal ArticleDOI
RNA virus interference via CRISPR/Cas13a system in plants.
Rashid Aman,Zahir Ali,Haroon Butt,Ahmed Mahas,Fatimah R. Aljedaani,Muhammad Zhuhaib Khan,Shou-Wei Ding,Magdy M. Mahfouz +7 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that CRISPR/Cas13a can be used for engineering interference againstRNA viruses, providing a potential novel mechanism for RNA-guided immunity against RNA viruses and for other RNA manipulations in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The iSCAN SARS-CoV-2 detection module, which exhibits the critical features of a robust molecular diagnostic device, should facilitate the effective management and control of COVID-19.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleic Acid Detection Using CRISPR/Cas Biosensing Technologies.
TL;DR: Recent advances in the field of CRISPR-based biosensing technologies are discussed and insights of their potential use in a myriad of applications are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
TsHKT1;2, a HKT1 homolog from the extremophile Arabidopsis-relative Thellungiella salsuginea, shows K+-specificity in the presence of NaCl
