A compact Cas9 ortholog from Staphylococcus Auricularis (SauriCas9) expands the DNA targeting scope.
Compact CRISPR/Cas9 systems that can be packaged into an adeno-associated virus (AAV) hold great promise for gene therapy. Unfortunately, currently available small Cas9 nucleases either display low activity or require a long protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) sequence, limiting their extensive applica...
