Mutant rats/Total rats (%) | Bi-allelic mutant rats/Total rats (%) | ||||||||
Total | ApoE | B2m | Prf1 | Prkdc | ApoE | B2m | Prf1 | Prkdc | |
Single sgRNA/Gene | 15/15 (100%) | 11/15 (73.3%) | 9/15 (60%) | 4/15 (26.7%) | 10/15 (66.7%) | 10/15 (66.7%) | 6/15 (40%) | 1/15 (6.7%) | 5/15 (33.3%) |
Dual sgRNAs/Gene | 24/25 (96%) | 19/25 (76%) | 14/25 (56%) | 13/25 (52%) | 13/25 (52%) | 15/25 (60%) | 11/25 (44%) | 10/25 (40%) | 9/25 (36%) |
Single sgRNA/Gene: A mixture of 4 sgRNAs, each targeting a single site in each of the 4 genes. Dual sgRNAs/Gene: Another distinct sgRNA of each gene, together with the tested 4 sgRNAs targeting double site in each of the 4 genes.
