Extended Data Fig. 5. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated target mutagenesis of MTL/ZmPLA1/NLD and ZmDMP.
a, MTL/ZmPLA1/NLD structure with the CRISPR-Cas9 target sites shown. mtl/zmpla1/nld had both a 2-bp deletion and a 27-bp insertion in its target region, causing 89 changed amino acids starting from the mutation site and resulting in premature translation termination. b, ZmDMP structure with the CRISPR-Cas9 target sites shown. zmdmp had a 1-bp deletion in its target region, causing 41 changed amino acids starting from the mutation site and resulting in premature translation termination. Mutation sites of the knockout lines are shown in the alignment comparison with the wild-type (WT) sequence, respectively. The target sequences are underlined, with the protospacer-adjacent motif shown in bold type. Insertions are shown in dark red and deletions are shown by dark red dashes.
