Methods and compositions for assessing CRISPER/Cas-mediated disruption or excision and CRISPR/Cas-induced recombination with an exogenous donor nucleic acid in vivo
Abstract:
Methods and compositions are provided for assessing CRISPR/Cas-mediated non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) activity and/or CRISPR/Cas-induced recombination of a target genomic locus with an exogenous donor nucleic acid in vivo or ex vivo. The methods and compositions employ non-human animals comprising a CRISPR reporter such as a genomically integrated CRISPR reporter for detecting and measuring targeted excision of a sequence between two CRISPR/Cas nuclease cleavage sites or disruption of a sequence near a CRISPR/Cas nuclease cleavage site and/or measuring CRISPR/Cas-induced recombination of the CRISPR reporter with an exogenous donor nucleic acid to convert the coding sequence for a first reporter protein to the coding sequence for a different second reporter protein. Methods and compositions are also provided for making and using these non-human animals.
