[0912] Example 1: CRISPR complex activity in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
[0913] An exemplary type II CRISPR system is the type II CRISPR locus from S. pyogenes SF370, which contains a cluster of four genes Cas9, Cas1, Cas2, and Csn1 and two non-coding RNA elements tracrRNA and a short sequence composed of non-repetitive sequences. A characteristic array of repeated sequences (direct repeats) spaced apart by segments (spacers, about 30 bp each). In this system, targeted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are generated in four sequential steps ( Figure 2A ). In the first step, two noncoding RNAs, pre-crRNA array and tracrRNA, are transcribed from the CRISPR locus. In the second step, the tracrRNA is hybridized to the direct repeat of the pre-crRNA, which is then processed into a mature crRNA containing a separate spacer sequence. In the third step, the mature crRNA:tracrRNA complex guides Cas9 to a DNA target consisting of the protospacer and the corresponding PAM via het...

[0944] Example 2: CRISPR System Modifications and Alternatives
[0945] The ability to program sequence-specific DNA cleavage using RNA defines a new class of genome engineering tools for a variety of research and industrial applications. Several aspects of the CRISPR system can be further improved to increase the efficiency and versatility of CRISPR targeting. Optimal Cas9 activity can be dependent on free Mg present in mammalian nuclei 2+ High levels of free Mg 2+Availability of NGG motifs (see e.g. Jinek et al., 2012, Science, 337:816), and a preference for NGG motifs located just downstream of protospacers limits targeting to the human genome average capacity per 12-bp in (Fig. 9, both positive and negative strands of human chromosomal sequences were evaluated). Some of these constraints can be overcome by exploring the diversity of CRISPR loci across microbial metagenomics (see e.g. Makarova et al., 2011, Nat Rev Microbiol, 9:467) . Other CRISPR loci can be grafted i...

[0946] Example 3: Sample target sequence selection algorithm
[0947] A software program is designed to identify candidate CRISPR target sequences on both strands of the input DNA sequence based on the desired guide sequence length and CRISPR motif sequence (PAM) for the specified CRISPR enzyme. For example, 5'-N can be searched on both the input sequence and the reverse complement of the x -NGG-3' to identify the target site of Cas9 from Streptococcus pyogenes with the PAM sequence NGG. Likewise, 5'-N can be searched both on the input sequence and the reverse x -NNAGAAW-3' to identify the target site of Cas9 of Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR1 with the PAM sequence NNAGAAW. Likewise, 5'-N can be searched both on the input sequence and the reverse x -NGGNG-3' to identify the target site of Cas9 of Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR3 with the PAM sequence NGGNG. Can be fixed by program or specified by userN x The value "x" in , such as 20.
