Abstract excerpt
The CRISPR/Cas9 method has become popular for gene disruption experiments in Xenopus laevis. However, the experimental conditions that influence the efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 remain unclear. To that end, we developed an image analysis technique for the semi-quantitative evaluation of the pigment phenotype resulting from the disruption of tyrosinase genes in X. laevis using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach, and then...
