Verified the effectiveness of AsCpf1 system in a variety of vertebrate species

CRISPR/Cpf1 system is a novel genomic editing tool. Because of its more sophisticated components, and lower off-target rate, it has the potential to become a better gene-editing tool. Previous reports showed that CRISPR/Cpf1 could work effectively in multiple species. But our data show that AsCpf1 activity has a big difference in different vertebrates. Using in vitro experiments, we finally learned that the difference between species is due to temperature.
