CRISPR arrays comprise repeated DNA elements and spacer sequences that can be engineered for custom target sites.

Each crRNA contains a single spacer that identifies the target cleavage site for a large variety of Cas protein effectors. Precise manipulation of spacer sequences within CRISPR arrays is crucial for advancing the functionality of CRISPR-based technologies. Here, we describe a protocol for the design and creation of a minimal, plasmid-based CRISPR array to enable the expression of specific, synthetic crRNAs.
