ABSTRACT

CRISPR-Cas systems have proven effective in a variety of applications due to their ease of use and relatively high editing efficiency. Yet, any individual CRISPR-Cas system has inherent limitations, necessitating a diversity of RNA-guided nucleases to suit applications with distinct needs. We searched through metagenomic sequences to identify RNA-guided nucleases and found enzymes from diverse CRISPR-Cas types and subtypes, the most promising of which we developed into gene-editing platforms. Based on prior annotations of the metagenomic sequences, we establish the likely taxa and sampling locations where Class 2 CRISPR-Cas systems active in eukaryotes may be found. The newly discovered systems show robust capabilities as gene editors and base editors.
