متن کاملTransgene-free genome editing in Caenorhabditis elegans using CRISPR-Cas.
CRISPR-Cas is an efficient method for genome editing in organisms from bacteria to human cells. We describe a transgene-free method for CRISPR-Cas-mediated cleavage in nematodes, enabling RNA-homology-targeted deletions that cause loss of gene function; analysis of whole-genome sequencing indicates that the nuclease activity is highly specific.
متن کاملHighly Efficient, Rapid and Co-CRISPR-Independent Genome Editing in Caenorhabditis elegans
We describe a rapid and highly efficient method to generate point mutations in Caenorhabditis elegans using direct injection of CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoproteins. This versatile method does not require sensitized genetic backgrounds or co-CRISPR selection-based methods, and represents a single strategy that can be used for creating genomic point mutations, regardless of location. As proof of princ...
متن کاملCRISPR/Cas9-Targeted Mutagenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans
The generation of genetic mutants in Caenorhabditis elegans has long relied on the selection of mutations in large-scale screens. Directed mutagenesis of specific loci in the genome would greatly speed up analysis of gene function. Here, we adapt the CRISPR/Cas9 system to generate mutations at specific sites in the C. elegans genome.
متن کاملAn optimized CRISPR/Cas toolbox for efficient germline and somatic genome engineering in Drosophila
The type II CRISPR/Cas system has recently emerged as a powerful method to manipulate the genomes of various organisms. Here, we report a novel toolbox for high efficiency genome engineering of Drosophila melanogaster consisting of transgenic Cas9 lines and versatile guide RNA (gRNA) expression plasmids. Systematic evaluation reveals Cas9 lines with ubiquitous or germline restricted patterns of...
