Rescue of high-specificity Cas9 variants using sgRNAs with matched 5’ nucleotides

We report that engineered Cas9 variants with improved specificity—eCas9-1.1 and Cas9-HF1—are often poorly active in human cells, when complexed with single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) with a mismatch at the 5’ terminus, relative to target DNA sequences. Because the nucleotide at the 5’ end of sgRNAs, expres...
