Zusammenfassung: | The present invention provides novel systems, methods and compositions for making and using recombinantly engineered novel Cas9 enzymes optimized for human cells, for nucleic acid targeting and manipulation. The present invention is based on the discovery of novel Cas9 enzymes from Streptococcus constellatus, Sharpen spp. isolate RUG017, Veillonella parvula, Ezakiella peruensis, Lactobacillus fermentum strain AF15-40LB strain and Peptoniphilus sp. Marseille-P3761 bacteria that were codon-optimized and recombinantly produced for use in human cells. In some embodiments, novel Cas9 enzymes can be used for base editing. In some embodiments, the novel engineered Cas9 enzymes are used to treat human diseases. |
