Beyond the Cel-1 Assay: Advancements in the Gene Editing Workflow

Gene editing has become a firmly established technology within the discovery sciences arena. With the advent of CRISPR/Cas9 systems, the researcher's ability to find an active nuclease for nearly any region of any genome is now a reality. Even with better nucleases available, those who routinely use gene editing tools to manipulate cell lines encounter other significant challenges that pose a barrier to building the "correct" cell line model. As a well-established partner for custom cell line engineering, we at MilliporeSigma have encountered many of these challenges and have developed and/or implemented a number of methods to circumvent them. Several of these methods and the new tools available for gene editing will be discussed in this webinar, along with a summary of how they have impacted our internal cell line engineering programs.
