Gene targeting in adult wild-type mice liver with a reporter donor-eGFP. (A) Experimental scheme. WT mice were transduced with AAV8-SaCas9 (1.0E11 vg/mouse) and AAV8-donor-EGFP (5.0E11 vg/mouse) at postnatal day (P) 60 and their livers were collected 2 weeks post-injection (n = 3); (B) Western blot analysis of eGFP protein from liver extracts. In the analysis are included two samples from animals treated at P60 with donor-eGFP+Cas9, donor-eGFP (no Cas9), untreated wild-type mouse (−) and mouse treated with donor-eGFP+Cas9 at P2 (+); (C,D) rAAV8-SaCas9 and rAAV8-donor-eGFP viral genome copy analysis; (E) Immunohistochemical analysis of eGFP protein in mice treated with SaCas9 and donor-eGFP at P60 and P2. Nuclei were stained with Hoechst (blue). Scale bar, 200 μm; (F) Quantification of eGFP-positive cells normalized by the total number of cell nuclei.
