English: CRISPR Cas12a (AsCpf1) system has been successfully harnessed for mammalian genome editing. AsCpf1 nuclease uses the single guide RNA to find a specific target sequence to introduce double-strand break. Then, the cell introduces a mutation at the site of the break through the repair mechanisms of damaged DNA.
Русский: CRISPR Cas12a (AsCpf1) система успешно используется для редактирования генома млекопитающих. Нуклеаза AsCpf1 с помощью направляющей РНК находит точное место в геноме, чтобы внести двухцепочечный разрыв. Затем клетка вносит мутацию в месте внесенного разрыва с помощью механизмов репарации поврежденной ДНК.
