1. A nucleic acid-guided nuclease system comprising:
an engineered nucleic acid-guided nuclease, wherein the engineered nucleic acid-guided nuclease comprises a polypeptide sequence having at least 100% homology to a polypeptide consisting of SEQ ID NO: 94 (ABW8), 29 (ABW3), 81 (ABW7), 107 (ABW9), 3 (ABW1), 16 (ABW2), 42 (ABW4), 55 (ABW5), or 68 (ABW6), or a polynucleotide encoding the sequence; and
a guide nucleic acid compatible with the nucleic acid-guided nuclease and comprising a guide sequence complementary to a target sequence in a target polynucleotide, or a polynucleotide encoding the guide nucleic acid.
