Fusion protein technology for site‑specific integration of RNA into DNA genomes
The technology integrates target RNA into DNA genomes by adding short DNA tails to RNA. Direct RNA integration into CRISPR arrays eliminates the use of harsh transfection methods that fragment DNA sequences.
Background
The development of CRISPR-Cas systems, which are widely used for precise genetic modifications, has advanced the field of genome...
