How fast can a cell locate a specific chromosomal DNA sequence specified by a single stranded oligonucleotide? To address this question we investigate the intracellular search processes of the CRISPR-associated protein Cas9, which can be programmed by a guide RNA to bind essentially any DNA sequence. This targeting flexibility requires Cas9 to unwind the DNA double helix to test for correct base pairing to the guide RNA. Here we study the search mechanisms of the catalytically inactive dCas9 in living Escherichia coli by combining single molecule fluorescence microscopy and bulk restriction protection assays. We find that it takes a single fluorescently labeled dCas9 six hours to find the correct target sequence, which implies that each potential target is bound for less than 30 ms. Once bound, dCas9 remains associated until replication. To achieve fast targeting, both Cas9 and its guide RNA have to be present at high concentrations.
