Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Precise and highly efficient integration of the exogenous gene into the target genomic locus (knockin) in vivo is the main challenge in the genome editing field. We have developed a series of new CRISPR technologies that enable highly efficient (up to 100%) knockin in mouse embryos.
