Open AccessFanzor is a eukaryotic programmable RNA-guided endonuclease
RNA-guided systems, which use complementarity between a guide RNA and target nucleic acid sequences for recognition of genetic elements, have a central role in biological processes in both prokaryotes and euka...

Open AccessCryo-EM structure of the transposon-associated TnpB enzyme
The class 2 type V CRISPR effector Cas12 is thought to have evolved from the IS200/IS605 superfamily of transposon-associated TnpB proteins1. Recent studies have identified TnpB proteins as miniature RNA-guided D...

Open AccessStructure of the IscB–ωRNA ribonucleoprotein complex, the likely ancestor of CRISPR-Cas9
Transposon-encoded IscB family proteins are RNA-guided nucleases in the OMEGA (obligate mobile element-guided activity) system, and likely ancestors of the RNA-guided nuclease Cas9 in the type II CRISPR-Cas ad...

Open AccessStructure of the OMEGA nickase IsrB in complex with ωRNA and target DNA
RNA-guided systems, such as CRISPR–Cas, combine programmable substrate recognition with enzymatic function, a combination that has been used advantageously to develop powerful molecular technologies1,2. Structura...
