This study shows that combining dCas9 and Cas9 improves viability and reduces off-target effects when editing genes linked to viability or paralogous clusters.

The paper analyzes 3,313 genetically engineered mouse lines to identify gene essentiality as the main factor affecting Cas9-based genome editing success.

This study uses long-read sequencing to accurately identify correct alleles in genome-edited animals despite mosaicism and complex edits.

This study investigates the role of Stx6 in prion disease by creating a mouse model with genetic depletion of Stx6 and finding a modest effect on prion disease incubation periods.
