The present disclosure relates to targeted genome editing in eukaryotic cells or organisms. More particularly, the present disclosure provides compositions for inducing targeted disruption of endogenous genes in eukaryotic cells. The composition may comprise a Cas9/guide RNA complex with a Cas9 protein to which a NLS is linked, and a guide RNA having a crRNA and a tracrRNA. The crRNA may comprise i) a portion to be hybridized with a portion of the tracrRNA, and ii) a portion complementary to a target DNA of the endogenous genes. In some embodiments, the Cas/guide RNA complex may be formed in vitro before being introduced into the eukaryotic cell.

Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for preventing, reducing, or removing malodor and microbial growth from liquid solutions, as well as from surfaces, such as fabrics, textiles or hard surfaces.

The present invention provides materials and methods useful for error correction of nucleic acid molecules. In one embodiment of the invention, a first plurality of double-stranded nucleic acid molecules having a nucleotide mismatch are fragmented by exposure to a molecule having unidirectional mismatch endonuclease activity. The nucleic acid molecules are cut at the mismatch site or near the mismatch site, leaving a double-stranded nucleic acid molecule having a mismatch at the end or near end of the molecule. The nucleic acid molecule is then exposed to a molecule having unidirectional exonuclease activity to remove the mismatched nucleotide. The missing nucleotides can then be filled in by the action of, e.g., a molecule having DNA polymerase activity. The result is double-stranded nucleic acid molecules with a decreased frequency of nucleotide mismatches. Also provided are novel nucleic acid sequences encoding mismatch endonucleases, polypeptides encoded thereby, as well as nucleic acid constructs, transgenic cells, and various compositions thereof.

The present disclosure relates to targeted genome editing in eukaryotic cells or organisms. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for Cas9/RNA complexes that may induce modifications in target endogenous nucleic acid sequences in nucleuses of eukaryotic cells. The Cas9/RNA complex may comprise a recombinant Cas9 protein including a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a guide RNA including a crRNA and a tracrRNA. The Cas9/RNA complex may be a combination of the recombinant Cas9 protein and the guide RNA. The guide RNA may be transcribed in vitro or synthesized chemically. The target endogenous nucleic acid sequence may include a portion complementary to the crRNA of the guide RNA.
