Cas12a cleavage and trimming kinetics reveal mismatches as a strategy to steer editing
Gene knockouts by CRISPR-Cas nucleases rely on targeted DNA cleavage and error-prone DNA repair: end-joining pathways can introduce insertions and deletions that assist in disrupting the coding sequence. However, only a fraction of edits achieves this, and an unfavorable array of repair outcomes typically requires swit...
