A multiplex guide RNA expression system and its efficacy for plant genome engineering

Abstract Background The Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR system is composed of a Cas9 endonuclease (SpCas9) and a single-stranded guide RNA (gRNA) harboring a target-specific sequence. Theoretically, SpCas9 proteins could cleave as many targeted loci as gRNAs bind in a genome. Results We introduce a PC...
