'Full exploitation of the natural reservoir of CRISPR-Cas nucleases from prokaryotes for genome editing is limited by the suboptimal activity of these enzymes in mammalian cells. Here we developed a Eukaryotic Platform to Improve Cas Activity (EPICA) to steer weakly active Cas9 nucleases into highly active enzymes by directed evolution.'
