Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides DNA-guided CRISPR systems; polynucleotides comprising DNA, RNA and mixtures thereof for use with CRISPR systems; and methods of use involving such polynucleotides and DNA-guided CRISPR systems.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A single polynucleotide comprising: a targeting region that comprises deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA); and an activating region adjacent to said targeting region that comprises DNA; wherein said activating region comprises a stem loop structure and is capable of binding with a Cpf1. 2. The polynucleotide of claim 1 , wherein the targeting region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA. 3. The polynucleotide of claim 1 , wherein the targeting region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA and the activating region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA. 4. A Class 2 CRISPR system consisting essentially of: (i) a single polynucleotide comprising (a) a targeting region that comprises deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA); and (b) an activating region adjacent to said targeting region that comprises DNA; wherein said activating region comprises a stem loop structure and is capable of binding with a Cpf1; and (ii) a Cpf1. 5. The Class 2 CRISPR system of claim 4 , wherein said targeting region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA. 6. The Class 2 CRISPR system of claim 4 , wherein said activating region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA. 7. The Class 2 CRISPR system of claim 4 , wherein said targeting region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA and said activating region comprises a mixture of DNA and RNA. 8. The Class 2 CRISPR system of claim 4 , further comprising a donor polynucleotide.
