Structural basis for the activation of a compact CRISPR-Cas13 nuclease
Abstract The CRISPR-Cas13 ribonucleases have been widely applied for RNA knockdown and transcriptional modulation owing to their high programmability and specificity. However, the large size of Cas13 effectors and their non-specific RNA cleavage upon target activation limit the adeno-associated viru...
