Independent validation for Gao Delivery Team: Testing ssAAV5 delivered intratracheally for editing activity in lung epithelia in Ai9 mice |
ssAAV5-spCas9 + ssAAV5-sgA+sgB-U1A.GFP, Ai9 - SauSpyCas9, female |
Editing efficiency is calculated by identifying airways in lungs sections by shape and DAPI-stained nuclei density. tdTomato-positive cells and total nuclei are counted in each airway. Airways are divided into small (<50000 square microns) and large (>50000 square microns) |
