Optimized CRISPR/Cas9 system for gene knockout in chicken DF1 cells.

ABSTRACT: The editing efficiency primarily hinders the utility of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) technology in poultry. For a better understanding of the factors that influence the efficiency of gene knockout mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 in chicken DF1 cells, the single or dual single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeted exon regions of genes (taking anti-Müllerian hormone, TGF-beta receptor type-2 and Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma as examples) were designed. The sgRNA-CRISPR/Cas9 vectors with corresponding reporter vectors were transfected into DF1 cells. T7 endonuclease 1 (T7E1) and amplicon sequencing assay were compared for evaluating genome editing efficiency and the indel profiles were analyzed based on the data of amplicon sequencing. Meanwhile, to eval
