This presentation describes the type II CRISPR system, which is an adaptive immune system found in bacteria that has been modified for use in genome editing.
This is part of a series ( • Genome Editing Explained ) that also covers
Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs)
TALE nucleases (TALENs)
Using CRISPR/Cas9 for genome editing
CRISPR specificity
Precision editing
Homology directed repair
Prime editing
This presentation is primarily aimed at university students, researchers, clinicians and journalists interested in fields related to molecular biology and genetics. It is for education purposes only.

thank you so much for the genome editing series.
You're welcome. Glad it was useful
Absolute legend, massive thanks from a 3rd year struggling on with his Genetics dissertation with only 1.5 years of in person teaching (strikes + a pandemic are a mean combo).
You’re welcome Joseph. Good luck with your studies!
Hi! Thanks a lot for the great lecture series about genome editing! It helps a lot to understand the topic!
At 2:38 , do you mean double stranded RNA sequence instead of DNA?
Greetings from Berlin!
Thanks Fabian. Well spotted. Yes, dsRNA of course. Best wishes for your studies!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
What does PAM stand for?
Glad you found it helpful Christian! Protospacer Adjacent Motif - the protospacer is the first ~20 bases that match the genomic target. The PAM is the next 3 bases in the genomic DNA that follow after the protospacer target, which Cas9 locks on to.
