... effective for generating knockout mice in multiple inbred strains. By combining in vitro fertilisation and electroporation, we obtained founders for knockout alleles in eight common inbred strains. Long-read sequencing analysis detected not only intended mutant alleles but also differences in read frequency...

... CTDP1 is required for breast cancer growth and proliferation. To explore the physiological function of CTDP1 in a mammalian system, we generated a conditional Ctdp1 knockout mouse model by insertion of loxP sites upstream of exon 3 and downstream of exon 4. Biallelic deletion of Ctdp1 results...

... Knockout Young mice Respiratory distress Mucus gel is the first line of defense in the lung. Gel-forming mucins are high-molecular-weight macromolecules that make up the major organic component of mucus. These molecules are heavily O -glycosylated and dimerize through their carboxy-terminal...

... fertilization compared with the conventional superovulation method. Here, we verify that the ultra-superovulation technique can be used for the efficient generation of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-mediated knockout mice by microinjection...

...). An LDLR knockout rat was generated via zinc-finger nuclease technology, which harbors a 19-basepair deletion in the seventh exon of the ldlr gene. As expected, deletion of the LDLR elevated total cholesterol and total triglyceride in the plasma, and caused a tenfold increase of plasma LDL-C and a fourfold...
