Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Makorin ring finger protein 3 gene (MKRN3) gene mutation is the most common genetic cause of central precocious puberty (CPP) in children. Due to the lack of ideal MKRN3-modified animal model (MKRN3-modified mice enter puberty only 4-5 days earlier than normal mice), the related research is limited. METHODS: Therefore, the MKRN3-modified rabbit was developed using CRISPR (clustered regularly...
