Extended Data Fig. 5: Conformational changes in Insertion domain upon target RNA binding.

From: RNA targeting unleashes indiscriminate nuclease activity of CRISPR–Cas12a2

Extended Data Fig. 5

a, Cas12a2 autoinhibited binary complex (left) and active ternary complex (right), colored as in Fig. 1a. Insertion domain is dark cyan. b, conformational changes of the C-terminal half of insertion domain from binary (grey) to ternary (dark cyan) complexes. N-terminal half remains static, and interacts with the crRNA 5′ handle.
