CRISPR/Cas9 mouse engineered for easy genome editing

A new genome tool has just become a bit easier to use in the lab with the publication of a knock-in CRISPR/Cas9 mouse. This tool allows researchers to easily edit the genome in specific locations so they can study the effect of a gene knockdown or alteration. Already, researchers were able to use this technique in vitro but now, a mouse strain has been made that can take this CRISPR/Cas9 system to the next level.
