Mutation detailsHomology directed repair strategy combined with CRISPR/Cas9 technology introduced human RHO genomic fragment that consists of the replacement of mouse exon 1 after the start codon to exon 5 before the stop codon and all introns by the human counterparts. The human rhodopsin is thus expressed under the control of the endogenous mouse promoter. (J:337142)
