CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homology-directed precise genome editing using long single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) donors has expanded the possibilities for generating defined genetic modifications. However, the required ssDNA donor preparation can be technically demanding and often requires extensive locus-specific sequence design. Here, we examined parameters influencing ssDNA donor-mediated genome editing and developed approaches to simplify donor preparation using {lambda}-exonuclease-mediated ssDNA generation. By evaluating donor designs across multiple genomic loci, we found that efficient genome editing can be achieved with relatively short homology regions for a range of insertion sizes. These findings provide a basis for simplifying ssDNA donor preparation and the overall gene-editing pipeline, potentially facilitating its application across species.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
