Abstract
Single-stranded oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ssODN)-mediated repair of CRISPR/Cas9-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) can effectively be used to introduce small genomic alterations in a defined locus. Here, we reveal DNA mismatch repair (MMR) activity is crucial for efficient nucleotide substitution distal from the Cas9-induced DNA break when the substitution is instructed by the 3' half of the ssODN. Furthermore, protecting the ssODN 3' end...
