Screening of Nme1Cas9 orthologs activities through a GFP- activation assay.
(A) Schematic of the GFP-activation assay. A protospacer flanked by an 8 bp random sequence is inserted between the ATG start codon and GFP-coding sequence, resulting in a frameshift mutation. The library DNA is stably integrated into HEK293T cells via lentivirus infection. Genome editing can lead to in-frame mutation. The protospacer sequence is shown below. (B) The procedure of the GFP-activation assay. Cas9 and sgRNA expression plasmids were co-transfected into the reporter cells. GFP-positive cells could be observed if the protospacer is edited. (C) Twenty-five out of 29 Nme1Cas9 orthologs could induce GFP expression. The percentage of GFP-positive cells is shown. Reporter cells without Cas9 transfection are used as a negative control. Scale bar: 250 μm.

The specificity between amino acids and bases in calculated structural models.
(A) Calculated structural model of Bdecas9. The amino acid near the 5 position of the NTS is histidine. Histidine’s side chain forms a potential hydrogen bond with the 6-hydroxyl group of guanine, if the guanine is other bases, this hydrogen bond would be not formed because of the too close distance (cytosine or thymine) or the lack of a hydroxyl group (adenine). (B) Calculated structural model of Asucas9. The amino acid near the 5 position of NTS is aspartic, and it forms a potential hydrogen bond with the 4-amine group of the cytosine. if the cytosine is replaced by other bases, this hydrogen bond would be abolished because of increased distance (adenine or guanine) or the lack of an amine group (thymine). (C) Calculated structural model of Bdecas9. The amino acid near the 8 position of TS is glutamine, and it forms a potential hydrogen bond with the 6-amine group of the adenine on the TS. If the cytosine is replaced by other bases, this hydrogen bond would be not formed because of too close distance (cytosine or thymine) or the lack of an amine group (guanine). TS: target strand, NTS: non-target strand.
