撰文丨王聪 编辑丨王多鱼 排版丨水成文 CRISPR-Cas9 被誉为"基因魔剪"，但其编辑效率在不同场景下差异巨大。为何有些 Cas9 变体能高效编 辑，而另一些却频频"失手"？ 近日， Molecular Cell 期刊发表了最新研究揭示了背后的核心机，这项由诺奖得主 Jennifer Doudna 教授 （博士后 史弘略 为论文第一作者 ） 领衔的研究，究揭示了广泛 PAM 识别与基因组编辑效率之间的基本 权衡，提出了高效的 RNA 引导的基因组编辑依赖于优化的两步靶标捕获过程，其中选择性但低亲和力的 PAM 结合优先于快速的 DNA 解旋。这不仅 解开了 CRISPR-Cas9 基因编辑效率密码，还为设计 更有效 的 CRISPR-Cas 及相关 RNA 引导的基因组编辑器奠定了基础。 这些发现也为长期以来关于 CRISPR-Cas9 基因编辑"是否要牺牲效率换取广谱性"的争议画上了句号。 Cas9 的"两步走"策略 就像快递员通过邮编和门牌号精准投递，Cas9 通过两步精准定位 DNA 靶点： 1、PAM识别 ：Cas9 首先识别目标 DNA 上的 PAM 序列 （例如 NGG） ，锁定目标区域； ...

核心提示： 当电子屏上的"延误"字样成为消费者唯一的维权证据，航空公司却以"出港撤轮 挡时间晚于计划出港时间未超过15分钟"为由拒绝退票；当平台承诺的"接送机 服务"变成一纸空文，酒店房型与描述严重不符时——这场由航空公司、在线旅 游平台编织的"消费陷阱"，正在吞噬无数旅客的信任。极速财讯通过王妍的遭 遇，揭开航空服务领域"规则模糊化"与"执行双标化"的深层乱象。 来源|极速财讯 作者|DA 01 延误认定"迷雾"：系统显示延误，航司拒不认账 这种矛盾在民航业内并不鲜见。多家廉价航空正利用撤轮档时间与实际起飞时间，玩起了"时间差游戏"。"铁证如山的延误，航空公司狡辩没延误，拒绝退 费。如果我不截图，根本就找不到信息。关键是系统里已经挂出了延误。航司说正常。"王妍气愤地向极速财讯阐明了这一点。 （受访者供图） 对于退票标准，携程网给予极速财讯的回复是：需联系航空公司核实，而吉祥航空则坚称滑出时间是16:45，未超限。至于如何证明滑出时间，对方称这是 系统显示，无法提供截图。王妍对此表示质疑，若非延误，为何系统显示延误？为何5点起飞不算延误？ 王妍的遭遇揭开另一个隐秘角落——航司与平台在延误认定上的模糊操作，系统 ...
