Our Team developed a universal toolkit, termed uniCAS, that enables customizable gene
regulation in mammalian cells. Therefore, we engineered the recently understood and highly promising
CRISPR/Cas9 system.
The regulation is based on the RNA-guided dCas9 protein, which allows specific targeting of DNA sequences. Our toolkit comprises not only a standardized dCas9 protein, but also different effector domains for efficient gene activation or repression.
