| abstract |
The present invention relates to a composition for genome editing using a CRISPR/Cpf1 system and a use thereof and, more particularly, to a composition for genome editing comprising: a CRISPR RNA (crRNA) including a guide sequence capable of hybridizing with a target nucleotide sequence, and a uridine repeat sequence connected to the 3′-end of the guide sequence, or a DNA encoding the same; and a Cpf1 protein or a DNA encoding the same, a method for genome editing using the same, a method for construction of a genetically modified organism, and a genetically modified organism. The present invention can increase an indel efficiency and decrease off-target activity in genome editing of eukaryotic cells using the CRIPSPR/Cpf1 system and thus can easily construct a genetically modified cell or genetically modified animal or plant having a desired gene inserted thereinto (knock-in) or deleted therefrom (knock-out). |
