Effective CRISPR interference of an endogenous gene via a single transgene in mice

Abstract excerpt

Drawbacks of conditional gene deletion in mice include the need for extensive breeding and, often, a lack of cell type-specificity. CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) is an alternative approach for loss-of-function studies that inhibits expression by guiding a transcriptional repressor to the transcription start-site of target genes. However, there has been limited exploration of CRISPRi in mice. We tested the...
