Pop in, pop out: a novel gene-targeting strategy for use with CRISPR-Cas9

摘要

The CRISPR-Cas9 system is frequently used to create small deletions in the genomes of mammalian cells, but the isolation of precisely targeted mutants is still challenging. A new, two-step ‘pop in & out’ targeting approach facilitates this task. See related Research article: http://www.genomebiology.com/2015/16/1/231.
