A thermostable Cas9 with increased lifetime in human plasma
While current CRISPR-Cas9 tools have revolutionized genome editing, they are not suitable for applications at elevated temperatures. Here, the authors characterize GeoCas9 from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, which is active up to 70°C and is stable in human plasma.
