Low incidence of SNVs and indels in trio genomes of Cas9-mediated multiplex edited sheep

Abstract Background The simplicity of the CRISPR/Cas9 system has enabled its widespread applications in generating animal models, functional genomic screening and in treating genetic and infectious diseases. However, unintended mutations produced by off-target CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease activity may lead...
