Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) system is being championed as a robust and flexible tool for genome editing. Compared with CRISPR associated protein 9 (Cas9), the CRISPR from Prevotella and Francisella 1 (Cpf1) protein has some distinct characteristics, including RNase activity, T-rich protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) preference and generation of sticky cutting ends. The extremely low propensity of off target effects and relatively high editing efficiency represent prominent advantages of Cpf1 over Cas9. CRISPR-Cpf1, alone or fused with function domains, has broadly expanded the applications such as multiplex gene knockout, transcriptional repression or activation and epigenome editing in a drug controlled way. Meanwhile, the modification of CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) with aptamer RNA achieves great promotion on genome editing. Moreover, disease-associated gene manipulation in mice, tumor mutation detection in patients with cancers, and more yet to come, represent growing demands of CRISPR-Cpf1 in clinical genome therapy. In this review, we summarized the unique properties of Cpf1 and the molecular mechanisms underlying CRISPR-Cpf1 on gene editing and regulation in human cells.
