First, this system can express two kinds of single strand RNA: tracrRNA and crRNA. crRNA’s structure is like “repeat---spacer---repeat”, the spacer part is complementary to target gene’s DNA sequence, the repeat is complementary to tracrRNA while tracrRNA can also have interaction with a protein coded in this system --- Cas9, an endonuclease.</p><br /> |

Once the target is found, Cas9 protein will bind on this gene’s DNA sequence with the help of tarcrRNA and crRNA. Then, Cas9 will make a small double strand break on the gene. So this gene’s sequence will be modified by later homozygous recombination, result in the knock-out of this gene.</p></font></td> |
