Optimized CRISPR/Cas tools for efficient germline and somatic genome engineering in Drosophila
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Significance: Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas)-mediated genome engineering promises to revolutionize genetic studies in a variety of systems. Here we describe an optimized set of tools for CRISPR/Cas experiments in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster . These tools can be used for remarkably efficient germline transmission of ( i ) loss-of-function insertion and deletion mutations in essential genes or ( ii ) precise changes in the genome sequence introduced by homology-directed repair. These tools also permit efficient biallelic targeting of genes in somatic cells, thereby demonstrating a novel application of CRISPR/Cas in rapidly revealing mutant phenotypes within the organism. Our work also paves the way for high-throughput genetic screens in Drosophila with CRISPR/Cas.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
