ABSTRACT

At the embryonic level, CRISPR technologies have been used to edit genomes reliably and efficiently in various mammalian models, with Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) electroporation potentially representing a superior delivery method into mammalian zygotes. However, detailed insights of the interactions between varying technical settings as well as the time point of electroporation in a bovine zygote's cell cycle on developmental metrics and the frequency and type of editing events are largely unknown. The present study uncovers that increasing pulse lengths result in higher Full Edit rates, with Mosaicism in Full-Edit embryos being significantly affected by adjusting RNP-electroporation relative to zygote cell cycle. A considerable proportion of Full Edit embryos demonstrated loss-of-heterozygosity after RNP-electroporation prior to S-phase. Some of these loss-of-heterozygosity events are a consequence of chromosomal disruptions along large sections of the target chromosomes making it necessary to check for their presence prior use of this technique in animal breeding. One out of 2 of these loss-of-heterozygosity events, however, was not associated with loss of an entire chromosome or chromosomal sections. Whether analysed loss-of-heterozygosity in these cases, however, was a false negative result due to loss of PCR primer sequences after INDEL formation at the target side or indeed due to interhomolog recombination needs to be clarified in follow up studies since the latter would for sure offer attractive options for future breeding schedules.
