Functional approaches for studying embryonic development have greatly advanced thanks to the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technique. Previously practiced in just a few organisms, these knockout techniques are now widely applied. Here we describe simple techniques for applying the CRISPR-Cas9 system to study the development of the nerve cord in the ascidian Phallusia mammillata.
得益于 CRISPR-Cas9 基因编辑技术,研究胚胎发育的功能方法取得了重大进展。这些敲除技术以前只在少数几种生物中进行过实践,现在已经得到了广泛应用。在这里,我们描述了将 CRISPR-Cas9 系统应用于研究腹足纲动物 Phallusia mammillata 的神经索发育的简单技术。
