Summary

Automatic Translation

This protocol describes techniques for isolating primary mouse hepatocytes from the liver and electroporating CRISPR-Cas9 as ribonucleoproteins and mRNA to disrupt a therapeutic target gene associated with an inherited metabolic disease of the liver. The methods described result in high viability and high levels of gene modification after electroporation.
