Gene Editing of Mouse Embryonic and Epiblast Stem Cells

Methods in Molecular Biology

Abstract

Efficient and reliable methods for gene editing are critical for the generation of loss-of-gene function stem cells and genetically modified mice. Here, we outline the application of CRISPR-Cas9 technology for gene editing in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to generate knockout ESC chimeras for the fast-tracked analysis of gene function. Furthermore, we describe the application of gene editing directly to mouse epiblast stem cells (mEpiSCs) for modelling germ layer differentiation in vitro.

CRISPR (general)

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are DNA sequences in the genome that are recognized and cleaved by CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas). CRISPR-Cas system enables the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. Discover the latest research on CRISPR here.

CRISPR for Genome Editing

Genome editing technologies enable the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are DNA sequences in the genome that are recognized and cleaved by CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas). Here is the latest research on the use of CRISPR-Cas system in gene editing.
