Design Notes

The sequence complementary to the human ꞵ-actin had to be exclusively complementary to that. If complementary to other mRNA sequences, the Cas13 could target those as well


Source

Sequences for crRNA backbone were taken from East-Selesky et al (2016).


The complementary sequence to human ꞵ-actin mRNA and the sequences of the human U6 promoter and terminator are taken from Genbank
