RNA-Guided Human Genome Engineering via Cas9
- P. Mali, Luhan Yang, +5 authors G. Church
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 15 February 2013
Genome Editing Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) function as part of an adaptive immune system in a range of prokaryotes: Invading phage and plasmid DNA is targeted… Expand
CAS9 transcriptional activators for target specificity screening and paired nickases for cooperative genome engineering
Prokaryotic type II CRISPR-Cas systems can be adapted to enable targeted genome modifications across a range of eukaryotes. Here we engineer this system to enable RNA-guided genome regulation in… Expand
Heritable genome editing in C. elegans via a CRISPR-Cas9 system

We report the use of clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated endonuclease Cas9 to target genomic sequences in the Caenorhabditis elegans germ line using… Expand
Cas9 as a versatile tool for engineering biology
RNA-guided Cas9 nucleases derived from clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas systems have dramatically transformed our ability to edit the genomes of diverse… Expand
Concerning RNA-guided gene drives for the alteration of wild populations
- K. Esvelt, A. Smidler, F. Catteruccia, G. Church
- Biology, Medicine
- eLife
- 17 July 2014
Gene drives may be capable of addressing ecological problems by altering entire populations of wild organisms, but their use has remained largely theoretical due to technical constraints. Here we… Expand

- Medicine
- Nature Methods
- 29 September 2013
The Cas9 protein from the Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR-Cas acquired immune system has been adapted for both RNA-guided genome editing and gene regulation in a variety of organisms, but it can… Expand
Safeguarding CRISPR-Cas9 gene drives in yeast
- James E. DiCarlo, Alejandro Chavez, S. Dietz, K. Esvelt, G. Church
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Biotechnology
- 25 October 2015
RNA-guided gene drives capable of spreading genomic alterations made in laboratory organisms through wild populations could be used to address environmental and public health problems. However, the… Expand

- K. Esvelt, Jacob C. Carlson, D. Liu
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 14 February 2011
Laboratory evolution has generated many biomolecules with desired properties, but a single round of mutation, gene expression, screening or selection, and replication typically requires days or… Expand
