Development System Comparing CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing efficencies between AAV9 and AAVcc47 in Ai9 mice with a 1:1 cas9 to sgRNA ratio (CMV promoter) | SCGE Toolkit A dual vector strategy was employed: one delivering two single guide RNAs targeting the Rosa26 locus and one delivering CMV driven SaCas9 (both single stranded AAV cassettes). This strategy was evaluted with both AAV9 (n=3) and AAVcc47 (n=3) by intravenous injection in Ai9 mice. A total dose of 3e12vg was injected into each mouse (1.5e12vg each vector mixed 1:1) and organs were harvested 4 weeks post injection. Editing efficency was determined by calculating percent TdTomato+ cells normalized to Dapi+ cells in liver and heart.

A dual vector strategy was employed: one delivering two single guide RNAs targeting the Rosa26 locus and one delivering CMV driven SaCas9 (both single stranded AAV cassettes). This strategy was evaluted with both AAV9 (n=3) and AAVcc47 (n=3) by intravenous injection in Ai9 mice. A total dose of 3e12vg was injected into each mouse (1.5e12vg each vector mixed 1:1) and organs were harvested 4 weeks post injection. Editing efficency was determined by calculating percent TdTomato+ cells normalized to Dapi+ cells in liver and heart.
Editing Assay:
- Editing efficiency calculated by counting fluorescent cells (TdTomato) compared to DAPI stained cells.
