Next-generation CRISPR gene-drive systems using Cas12a nuclease

Sara Sanz Juste, Emily M. Okamoto, Christina Nguyen…·Víctor López Del Amo

This paper presents a temperature-regulated Cas12a-based gene-drive system and demonstrates double gene drives using Cas9 and Cas12a to spread two engineered alleles.
