dnaaf9 crispants exhibit scoliotic-like phenotype. >(A) Illustration of the dnaaf9 gene structure, showing exons (boxes), introns (lines) and exons targeted by guide RNAs (blue boxes) along with the primer positions used for genotyping (Orange arrowhead-Exon 6, Green arrow-Exon 30). (B,C) Heteroduplex assay result confirming high efficiency of guide RNA–mediated mutagenesis in F0 crispants. (D) Representative morphological images of 6 dpf dnaaf9 crispants exhibiting notochord malformation (red arrows). (E) Genotyping result showing efficient mutation in dnaaf9 crispants exhibiting notochord defect. (F) Representative sequencing results showing the position of the deletion of 24.7 kb between exons 6 and 30. Scale bars, 150 µm.
