Table 3. Development of rat embryos co-introduced to Cas9 nuclease protein and gRNA by microinjection or electroporation.
Methods | No. of embryos examined | No. (%) of 2-cell embryos | No. (%) of offspring | No. (%) of knockout offspring |
---|---|---|---|---|
Microinjection | 40 | 19 (48) | 13 (68) | 10 (77) |
Electroporation | 25 | 25 (100) | 17 (68) | 17 (100) |
Targeted gene: Tyr gene. Cas9 protein and gRNA (Integrated DNA Technologies, IA, USA) were used [43].
