Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research was to establish inhibition of transporter gene expression by CRISPR-Cas9 system in mammalian cells as transporter identification tool. We designed guide RNA for all human SLC transporters and succeeded in simultaneous knockout of multiple transporters. On the other hand, we failed to suppress expression of some genes in the host cells after infection of viruses. Improvements in the design method of guide RNA are future subjects.
