Paired nicking-mediated COL17A1 reframing for junctional epidermolysis bullosa.

TLDR
Kocher et al. as discussed by the authors designed patient-specific Cas9-nuclease-and-nickase-based targeting strategies for reframing a common homozygous deletion in exon 52 of COL17A1 associated with a lack of full-length C17 expression.

A Novel Fluorescence-Based Screen of Gene Editing Molecules for Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa

TL;DR: In this article , a cell line suitable for gene expression studies of the JEB-associated COL17A1 encoding type XVII collagen (C17), a transmembrane protein involved in connecting basal keratinocytes to the underlying dermis of the skin, was developed.

A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Double nicking by RNA-guided CRISPR Cas9 for enhanced genome editing specificity

TL;DR: In this paper, an approach that combines a Cas9 nickase mutant with paired guide RNAs to introduce targeted double-strand breaks is described. But the approach is limited to mouse zygotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-frequency off-target mutagenesis induced by CRISPR-Cas nucleases in human cells.

TL;DR: It is found that single and double mismatches are tolerated to varying degrees depending on their position along the guide RNA (gRNA)-DNA interface, and off-target cleavage of CRISPR-associated (Cas)9-based RGNs is characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cas-OFFinder: a fast and versatile algorithm that searches for potential off-target sites of Cas9 RNA-guided endonucleases

TL;DR: A novel algorithm termed Cas-OFFinder that searches for potential off-target sites in a given genome or user-defined sequences and allows variations in protospacer-adjacent motif sequences recognized by Cas9, the essential protein component in RGENs.
