Classroom Kit – Using CRISPR to Treat Cystic Fibrosis – For 8 Gels/8 Lab Groups

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:
In this experiment, students will simulate the use of CRISPR-Cas9 to target a genetic mutation found in a patient suffering from Cystic Fibrosis. Students will develop an understanding of guide RNA (gRNA) design, and use agarose gel electrophoresis to examine pre-prepared DNA samples after CRISPR treatment.
