Abstract:
The activity of the pool of sgRNA molecules designed for different regions of potato coilin and phytoene desaturase genes was compared in vitro. Due to the presence of nucleotides unpaired with DNA, sgRNA is able not only to inhibit but also to stimulate the activity of the Cas9-sgRNA complex in vitro. Although the first six nucleotides located in the DNA substrate proximally to the PAM site at the 3' end are the binding sites for cas9, they had no significant effect on the activity of the Cas9-sgRNA complex.
