ABSTRACT
Small molecule-mediated proteasomal degradation of proteins is a powerful tool for synthetic regulation of biological activity. To control Cas9 activity in cells, we engineered an anti-CRISPR protein, AcrIIA4, fused to a degradation (dTAG) or small molecule assisted shutoff (SMASh) tag. Co-expression of the tagged AcrIIA4 along with Cas9 and riboswitch-regulated sgRNAs enables precise tunable control of CRISPR activity by small molecule addition.
