Agreement Date:
Nov 1, 2024 - Mar 31, 2026
Description:
This proposal seeks to design and to construct a functional, CGT-relevant Cas12a crRNA arrayed library containing ~ 10,000 sequenced crRNA, which will then be available to the greater Canadian Cell and Gene Therapy community. To do so, we will leverage the expertise developed over the last few years in optimizing the design of Cas12a crRNA and the production of two PoC 96-well plate to ensure the feasibility in producing a larger-size library.
