Adeno-associated vectors (AAVs) are frequently used for the delivery of genetic cargo but their small packaging capacity is not suitable for delivery of large constructs, including most CRISPR/dCas9-effector systems. Here the authors report a compact dCas9-based repressor system packaged within a single, optimized AAV vector.
