Contains the empty sgRNA backbone sequence (tracrRNA, 82 bp) and is used as DNA template to amplify a specific sgRNA using a forward primer with the protospacer sequence for gene targeting.
Trypanosoma cruzi CRISPR/Cas9 System plasmids allow for the amplification of a specific sgRNA sequence or express cas9 to generate CRISPR-ablated, red/green fluorescent parasites.
Trypanosoma cruziis the agent of Chagas disease, which affects millions of people worldwide. Vaccines to prevent this disease are not available, and drug treatments are not completely effective. The study of the biology of this parasite through genetic approaches will make possible the development of new preventive or treatment options.
