After
genome editing a process termed «allele replacement» is complete.
We'll have a post that goes into the mouse
genome editing process in a bit more detail in the coming weeks, but, in this post, we will outline a simple method for selecting the guide RNA, validating its efficacy in vitro, and using it in mouse embryos to generate gene modified mouse lines.
This gives us greater capability, enabling us to tune the machinery and also turn it on or off with chemicals, which has important implications for regulating
the genome editing process.»
