Abstract excerpt
The recent advent of CRISPR/Cas9 as a straightforward genome editing tool has allowed the establishment of the first bona fide genetic cancer models within the diploid aquatic model organism Xenopus tropicalis (X. tropicalis). Within this chapter, we demonstrate the methods for targeting tumor suppressors with the CRISPR/Cas9 system in the developing X. tropicalis embryo. We further illustrate genotyping and...
