Title: Generation of Mutants of Nuclear-Encoded Plastid Proteins Using CRISPR/Cas9 in the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Author: Allorent G, Guglielmino E, Giustini C, Courtois F. Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2018; 1829():367-378. PubMed ID: 29987734. Abstract: Genome modifications in microalgae are becoming a widespread and mandatory tool for research in both fundamental and applied biology. Among genome editing methods in these photosynthetic organisms, CRISPR/Cas9 offers a specific, powerful and efficient tool for genome engineering by inducing mutations in targeted regions of the genome. Here we described a protocol that allows the generation of knockout mutants by CRISPR/Cas9 in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum using biolistic transformation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
