Abstract excerpt
Sphingolipids are widespread, abundant, and essential lipids in plants and in other eukaryotes. Glycosyl inositol phosphorylceramides (GIPCs) are the most abundant class of plant sphingolipids, and are enriched in the plasma membrane of plant cells. They have been difficult to study due to lethal or pleiotropic mutant phenotypes. To overcome this, we developed a CRISPR/Cas9-based method for generating multiple...
