Tak, Y. Esther; Horng, Joy E.; Perry, Nicholas T.; Schultz, Hayley; Iyer, Sowmya; Yao, Qiuming; Zou, Luli S.; Aryee, Martin; Pinello, Luca; Joung, Keith (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-08-05)Epigenetic editing is an emerging technology that uses artificial transcription factors (aTFs) to regulate expression of a target gene. Although human genes can be robustly upregulated by targeting aTFs to promoters, the ... -

Engineered CRISPR-Cas9 nucleases with altered PAM specificities
Kleinstiver, Benjamin P.; Prew, Michelle S.; Tsai, Shengdar Q.; Topkar, Ved; Nguyen, Nhu T.; Zheng, Zongli; Gonzales, Andrew P.W.; Li, Zhuyun; Peterson, Randall T.; Yeh, Jing-Ruey Joanna; Aryee, Martin J.; Joung, J. Keith (2015)Although CRISPR-Cas9 nucleases are widely used for genome editing1, 2, the range of sequences that Cas9 can recognize is constrained by the need for a specific protospacer adjacent motif (PAM)3–6. As a result, it can often ... -
