Tuning Mitotic Recombination with Patterned DNA Nicks for Precision Mosaic Analysis
2025-10-31
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> CRISPR/Cas9-based mosaic analysis is a powerful tool for in vivo genetics but is limited by cytotoxicity and mutagenesis associated with DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here, we establish Cas9-derived nickases as safer and more reliable alternatives for inducing mitotic recombination in Drosophila . We demonstrate that single-strand nicks are sufficient to generate mosaic clones and systemati...
