These platforms all induce double strand cuts in the chromosomal DNA that can be sealed by the cell, leading to a specific gene disruption, or resulting in a new target site for inserting DNA segments. Gene editing tools can sometimes bind to unintended sites, typically because of sequence homologies and/or mismatch tolerance.
