Abstract

We demonstrated the photo-controlled sequence-selective dsDNA cleavage using a DNA origami structure with Cas9 nuclease. The activity of Cas9 incorporated inside the ring-shaped DNA origami was completely suppressed. After photoirradiation, Cas9 was released, and its activity for selective dsDNA cleavage was restored.
