1. What is NgAgo-gDNA bioinformatic tool?
Natronobacterium gregoryi Argonaute (NgAgo) is a DNA-guided endonuclease suitable for genome editing in human cells. NgAgo binds 5' phosphorylated single-stranded guide DNA (gDNA) of ∼24 nucleotides, efficiently creates site-specific DNA double-strand breaks when loaded with the gDNA. The NgAgo-gDNA system does not require a protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM), as does Cas9(Gao et al., 2016 Nat Biotechnol). Based on these features, NgAgo-gDNA was developed, which is a bioinformatic tool for fast designing gDNA and evaluating potential off-target cleavage sites.
