Deskripsi

CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to image repetitive loci in live cells to explore genome organization. Here the authors demonstrate the imaging of low-repeat regions with a single-guide RNA and the imaging of a non-repetitive region, allowing the tracking of transcriptionally active and inactive regions.
