Large CRISPR-Cas-induced deletions in the oxamniquine resistance locus of the human parasite <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i>

2020-05-03

Abstract excerpt

At least 250 million people worldwide suffer from schistosomiasis, caused by Schistosoma worms. Genome sequences for several Schistosoma species are available, including a high-quality annotated reference for Schistosoma mansoni . There is a pressing need to develop a reliable functional toolkit to translate these data into new biological insights and targets for intervention. CRISPR-Cas9 was recently demonstra...
