The Effect of DNA Topology on Observed Rates of R-Loop Formation and DNA Strand Cleavage by CRISPR Cas12a

Here we explored the mechanism of R-loop formation and DNA cleavage by type V CRISPR Cas12a (formerly known as Cpf1). We first used a single-molecule magnetic tweezers (MT) assay to show that R-loop formation by Lachnospiraceae bacterium ND2006 Cas12a is significantly enhanced by negative DNA superc...
