This volume details the fundamentals of the
CRISPR-Cas system
, and its protocols illustrate advances in
CRISPR-Cas
techniques for efficient genome editing. Introductory chapters provide a wide horizon of
CRISPR/Cas-based methods
and applications. Additional chapters guide readers through HDR-mediated editing, sgRNA design, the step-by-step procedure of multiplex adenine base editing experiments in rice, generating mutants for rice, wheat, Brachypodium, Barley, Flax, and Phytophthora, visual screening of mutants, gene deletion (knock-out), tagging (knock-in) in mammalian cells, the cloning-free (DNA-free) technique, cell-penetrating peptides, generating a genome-edited banana, and nuclear genome editing of Chlamydomonas employing CRISPR-Cpf1 combined with a single-stranded DNA (ssODN) repair template.
Authoritative and cutting-edge,
CRISPR-Cas Methods
aims to assist researchers who are new to the field and are aiming to learn how best to adopt this technology for a particular organism.
