CRISPR-Cas9 repair complexity in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> : NHEJ-induced deletions and HDR variability in the <i>bantam</i> microRNA gene
2025-05-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> CRISPR-Cas9–mediated gene editing was used to generate specific mutants of the bantam gene in Drosophila melanogaster . To drive non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and achieve a precise deletion of most of the bantam locus, two guide RNAs targeting sites 90 base pairs apart were expressed in the germline using the UAS/GAL4 system. Thirty lethal and eight viable lines were established and anal...
