CRISPR/Cas system for yeast genome engineering: advances and applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
The methods based on the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas) system have quickly gained popularity for genome editing and transcriptional regulation in many organisms, including yeast. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of CRISPR application for different yeast species: from basic principles and genetic design to applications.
