    Flexibility in PAM recognition expands DNA targeting in xCas9

    Kazi A Hossain, Lukasz Nierzwicki ... Giulia Palermo
    xCas9's ability to recognise diverse DNA sequences stems from structural flexibility in the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM)-interacting cleft and adaptability to PAM-induced conformational changes, paving the way for advanced genome editing tools.
