Funded Activity Summary

Targeted genome editing using engineered CRISPR-Cas endonucleases. This project aims to study the generation of targeted and cell-specific endonucleases. CRISPR-Cas endonucleases have revolutionised the field of genome engineering due to programming simplicity based on a short guide RNA and high cleavage efficiency. This project will combine the use of two technologies in genome engineering and antibody therapeutics to generate new antibody-targeted endonucleases that modify cellular genomes with high efficacy and specificity. This project will provide new and intriguing insights into cellar function, with broad applications in basic research and biotechnology.
