Zusammenfassung:Provided herein are systems, methods, and compositions for the modification of target DNA sequences. More particularly, systems, methods, and compositions for cleaving a target DNA in eukaryotic cells with a guide RNA capable of hybridizing with a target sequence and an RNA-guided DNA nuclease are provided. Also provided are vectors and vector systems which encode one or more components of a CRISPR complex, as well as methods for the design and use of such vectors. Also provided are methods for identifying and validating novel CRISPR systems.
