Immortalised Cas9-expressing Cell lines for Gene interrogation.

ABSTRACT

The ability of modifying the genome of multiple species, precisely and without or minimal off-targeted effects, have opened numerous opportunities for the biotechnology industry. In this chapter, we describe an easy to establish, robust, and practical pipeline that can be used to generate immortalized cell lines, from different tissues, to capture cell linage context and validate the tools required for genome editing and genetic modification. This pipeline serves as a reference for similar approaches for gene interrogation in other species.
