- Scientific DescriptionCRISPR-associated nuclease Acidaminococcus sp. Cas12a, also known as AsCpf1, can recognize and cleave DNA sequences with a T-rich protospacer adjacent motif (T-PAM), making it a useful tool for genome editing in regions where the NGG PAM sequence is not present. Different from Cas9, AsCas12a leaves sticky ends with 5 overhangs after the cleavage of both DNA strands, which provides a powerful tool for genetic engineering and other applications that require precise and specific DNA cleavage and editing.
