Optimizing CRISPR/Cas9 for the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

CRISPR/Cas9 is a powerful tool for genome Horse Saddles editing.We constructed an easy-to-handle expression vector for application in the model organism Phaeodactylum tricornutum and tested its capabilities in order to apply CRISPR/Cas9 technology for our purpose.In our experiments, we targeted two different genes, screened for mutations and analyz
