Harnessing accurate non-homologous end joining for efficient precise deletion in CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing
Abstract Background Many applications of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing require Cas9-induced non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), which was thought to be error prone. However, with directly ligatable ends, Cas9-induced DNA double strand breaks may be repaired preferentially by accurate NHEJ. Resu...
