High‐efficiency genome editing by Cas12a ribonucleoprotein complex in Euglena gracilis
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2024.We developed a genome editing method for Euglena gracilis using LbCas12a RNP complex. We achieved mutagenesis rates of 77.2–94.5% at two E. gracilis target genes. We also demonstrated targeted knock‐in and base editing in E. gracilis. Abstract Transgene‐free genome editing based on clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR ...
