For each of two nucleases—Cas9 from Streptococcus pyogenes and Cas12 from Staphylococcus aureus—they identified three short sequences, about eight amino acids long, that evoked an immune response.

Initial successes inspired scientists to discover and create new CRISPR systems, including those using Cas9, Cas12, Cascade-Cas3, and Cas13 orthologues. In addition to targeting DNA, researchers ...

The Cas9 protein is the most widely used by scientists. This protein can easily be programmed to find and bind to almost any desired target sequence, simply by giving it a piece of RNA to guide it ...
