Origin:
CRISPR/Cas9 system containing guide RNAs targeting exon 2 and intron 2 were introduced into the F344/Stm embryos using a super electroporator NEPA 2. This mutant strain F344-Prkar1bem1Tua carried a 2-bp frameshift insertion in exon2 creating a premature stop codon in the Prkar1b transcripts. Expression levels of Prkar1b transcripts and protein are significantly decreased in the mutants.
