Developing a CRISPR/FrCas9 system for core promoter editing in rice

Small mutations in the core promoter region of a gene may result in substantial changes in expression strengths. However, targeting TA-rich sequences of core promoters may pose a challenge for Cas9 variants such as SpCas9 and other G-rich PAM-compatible Cas9s. In this study, we engineered a unique FrCas9 system derived from
