Edge/source evidence summary:

Prerequisite Type Confidence Evidence level Note Sources
Single-Guide RNA Design (single_guide_rna_design) enabling 68% expert_inference Single-Guide RNA Design provides a capability that enables this technology without being the only possible path.
RNA Interference (rna_interference) historical_predecessor 72% primary_source RNA interference is a prior RNA-knockdown approach and comparison point for Cas13, not a hard prerequisite for Cas12/Cas13 platforms as a whole.
CRISPR Adaptive Immunity (crispr_adaptive_immunity) historical_predecessor 86% primary_source Cas12/Cpf1 and Cas13 are class 2 CRISPR-Cas effectors, so the shared foundation is broader CRISPR-Cas adaptive immunity rather than Cas9-specific genome editing.
