First evidence for TIGR-Tas activity in a photosynthetic eukaryote

TIGR–Tas systems are a recently described class of RNA-guided DNA-targeting systems whose activity has been demonstrated in bacterial and human cells, but not in photosynthetic eukaryotes. Here we tested TIGR–Tas in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Recombinant TaTas and ParTas assembled with in vitro-transcrib...
