    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to targeted genome editing in eukaryotic cells or organisms. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for compositions and methods that may induce modifications in target endogenous nucleic acid sequences in nucleuses of eukaryotic cells. For example, disclosed herein is a system for inducing targeted disruption of endogenous genes in a eukaryotic cell, the system comprising: an extracellular Cas9/RNA complex; cell-free and a buffer; wherein the extracellular Cas9/RNA complex comprises: a recombinant Cas9; and a guide RNA having a CRISPR RNA (crRNA) and a transactivating crRNA (tracrRNA); wherein the extracellular Cas9/RNA complex is disposed in the cell-free buffer and wherein the extracellular Cas9/RNA complex is complexed prior to being introduced into the eukaryotic cell; and wherein the Cas9/RNA complex functions as an endonuclease that induces targeted disruption of the target DNA upon introduction into the eukaryotic cell.
