A positive, growth-based PAM screen identifies noncanonical motifs recognized by the S. pyogenes Cas9

SCIENCE ADVANCES, 6(29).

By: D. Collias n, R. Leenay n, R. Slotkowski n, Z. Zuo*, S. Collins n, B. McGirr n, J. Liu*, C. Beisel n

TL;DR: It is reported that SpyCas9 also recognizes sequences within an N(A/C/T)GG motif, which could have implications for precise editing, off-target predictions, and CRISPR-based immunity. (via Semantic Scholar)

The Francisella novicida Cas12a is sensitive to the structure downstream of the terminal repeat in CRISPR arrays

RNA BIOLOGY, 16(4), 404–412.

By: C. Liao n, R. Slotkowski n, T. Achmedov* & C. Beisel n

author keywords: Cpf1; CRISPR; RNA structure; terminator; TXTL
MeSH headings : CRISPR-Associated Proteins / metabolism; Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats / genetics; DNA Cleavage; DNA, Intergenic / genetics; Francisella / genetics; Nucleic Acid Conformation; RNA Processing, Post-Transcriptional / genetics; RNA, Guide, Kinetoplastida / metabolism; Rho Factor / metabolism; Terminal Repeat Sequences / genetics; Transcription Termination, Genetic
TL;DR: It is shown that a structured hairpin located immediately downstream of the 3ʹ repeat interferes with utilization of the adjacent encoded guide RNA by Francisella novicida (Fn)Cas12a, revealing that sequences surrounding a CRISPR array can interfere with the function of aCRISPR nuclease.
