What is the purpose of a repair template in CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing for large deletions?
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the PAH gene, which encodes phenylalanine hydroxylase. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of the amino acid phenylalanine to:
What would suggest the presence of the gene of interest on the genomic clone in Southern blot analysis?
