CRISPR in Drosophila: A tool for targeted disruption of genes

By | May 22, 2021

The best way to study the function of a gene is by generating a mutation or knockdown/knockout so that the amount of protein coded by that gene is compromised. Several model systems are employed by scientists to study the function of human genes. Drosophila has been used as a genetic model for more than 100… Read More »
