All known Cas9 enzymes contain an HNH domain that cleaves the DNA strand complementary to the guide RNA sequence (target strand), and a RuvC nuclease domain required for cleaving the noncomplementary strand (non-target strand), yielding double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs). The crystal structures of type II-A and II-C Cas9 proteins highlight the features in Cas9 enzymes that support their function as RNA-guided endonucleases. Cas9 enzymes adopt a bilobed architecture composed of a nuclease lobe containing juxtaposed RuvC and HNH nuclease domains and a variable alpha-helical lobe likely to be involved in nucleic acid binding. The RuvC domain forms the structural core of the nuclease lobe, a six-stranded beta sheet surrounded by four alpha helices, with all three conserved subdomains (I, II, III) contributing catalytic residues to the active site [1].
