Combining Cas9 and dCas9 facilitates genome editing in genes associated with viability or welfare issues, or within paralogous gene clusters
2026-05-07
Abstract excerpt
The high efficiency of genome editing presents a challenge when modifying genes associated with viability, welfare, or fertility issues, as implementation of the technology frequently results in mosaic animals with bi-allelic mutations. Combining deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) with Cas9 has been proposed as a strategy to protect one of the two target alleles from editing. We piloted this strategy with 11 genes that are...
