Kewpie and Hiroshima University create ovomucoid-free chicken eggs by genome editing
https://bio.nikkeibp.co.jp/atcl/news/p1/23/04/26/10634/ Kewpie and Hiroshima University have removed ovomucoid in chicken egg by genome editing. They succeeded in completely eliminating the obomucoid epitope by placing a deletion just behind the translation start point and causing a frameshift. They have also succeeded in suppressing off-target cleavage by using the TALEN technology of Platinum Bio. The obomucoid accounts […]
