Cas9-expressing cattle using the transposon all-in-one Cas9 for bovine genome editing

These data demonstrate, for the first time, that Cas9-expressing cattle were successfully born, and this transgene was transmitted to the next-generation calves (F1) and F2 embryos. In addition, somatic and germ cells derived from F0 and F1generations were used to evaluate the potential for gene editing (knockout and knock-in) in multiple genes. PRNP-mutated F1 cattle are currently being raised as a resistance model for bovine spongiform encephalopathy. These transgenic bovine models and their derivatives will serve as a valuable resource for both in vitro and in vivo genome editing, advancing our genetic understanding of bovine genomics and diseases.
