CRISPR-PIN: Modifying gene position in the nucleus via dCas9-mediated tethering

Spatial organization of DNA within the nucleus is important for controlling DNA replication and repair, genetic recombination, and gene expression. Here, we present CRISPR-PIN, a CRISPR/dCas9-based tool that allows control of gene Position in the Nucleus for the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This...
