  • BindCraft, an open-source, automated pipeline for de novo protein binder design with experimental success rates of 10–100%, leverages AlphaFold2 weights to generate binders with nanomolar affinity without the need for high-throughput screening.

  • CRISPR enzymes require a defined protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) which can be limiting for editing applications. Here the authors recombine the PAM-interacting domain of SpRY with the N-terminus of Sc + + to generate a chimeric enzyme with highly flexible PAM preference: SpRYc.

  • A detailed understanding of the catalytic target DNA cleavage mechanism by CRISPR–Cas9 has been lacking. Now the key modulating role of Mg2+ in the conformational activation of Cas9 and the influence of active site residues on the protonation state of catalytic H840 are demonstrated, ultimately unravelling the catalytic mechanism.

  • Through directed evolution, the PAM compatibility of the compact Cas9 variant CjCas9 was increased. Evolved CjCas9 shows higher nuclease activity at canonical and non-canonical sites and enables robust in vivo gene editing from single AAV vectors.
