Efficient CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing for characterization of essential genes in Trypanosoma cruzi
Summary: This protocol outlines a new genetic complementation strategy to investigate gene function in Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease. We combine CRISPR-Cas9 technology with recombination of variants of the target gene containing the desired mutations that are resistant to Ca...
