Abstract: | ObjectivesTo investigate the effect of endogenous Cas9 on genome editing efficiency in transgenic zebrafish.ResultsHere we have constructed a transgenic zebrafish strain that can be screened by pigment deficiency. Compared with the traditional CRISPR injection method, the transgenic zebrafish can improve the efficiency of genome editing significantly. At the same time, we first observed that the phenotype of vertebral malformation in early embryonic development of zebrafish after ZFERV knockout.ConclusionsThe transgenic zebrafish with expressed Cas9, is more efficient in genome editing. And the results of ZFERV knockout indicated that ERV may affect the vertebral development by Notch1/Delta D signal pathway. |
