...drawbacks to this approach:
TET proteins are not demethylases; they are dioxygenases that oxidize 5-methylcytosine...achieved by dCas9 alone, without TET (or any demethylase) fusion. This may seem counterintuitive: how ...achieved using lentiviral backbones expressing blasticidin or puromycin resistance genes.
It’s that simple...
