Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Pronuclear injection with 5 ng/μL of gRNA/Cas9 expressing plasmid (for Pate1, Pate2 and Pate3) was performed as previously reported (Mashiko et al., 2013 (link); Noda et al., 2017 (link)). The crRNA and tracrRNA (Sigma) were diluted with nuclease free water (non-DEPC treated, Ambion). The mixture was denatured at 95°C for 1 minute and allowed to anneal by cooling gradually to room temperature (~1 hour). Each gRNA was mixed with Cas9 protein solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and T10E0.1 buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, pH 7.4), and then incubated at 37°C for 5 minutes to prepare the gRNA/Cas9 RNPs. For multiple gene targeting, we prepared the gRNA/Cas9 RNP solution separately and then combined them [final concentration: 30 ng/μL (≈ 200 nM) Cas9 for 20 ng/μL (≈ 600 nM) of each gRNA (Table S2)]. After centrifugation at 20,000 g at 4°C for 10 minutes, the mixture was used for pronuclear injection (for Clpsl2, Epp13, Rnase13, Gm1110, Glb1l2, Glb1l3).

Generation of Zebrafish baz1b Knockout Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The procedure used is similar to that described by Keatinge and colleagues53 (link) but with small variations. One-cell stage zebrafish embryos were injected into the yolk with 1 nL injection solution containing 62.5 ng/μL crispr RNA (crRNA, Sigma), 62.5 ng/μL tracrRNA (Sigma, cat.tracrRNA05N), 1:8 dilution Cas9 protein (New England Biolabs, cat. M0386M; diluted in buffer B, New England Biolabs, cat. B802S) and 1:40 dilution of phenol red (Sigma Aldrich). The crRNA (5′CUCAUCCUCCACCACCCAGG) was designated to target a section of exon 5 of the zebrafish gene baz1b (ensembl gene ID: ENSDART00000158503.2) overlapping a restriction site for the Bsl1 enzyme (New England Bioscience) which includes a PAM site. Once a pair of founders was identified (outcrossing them to WT and genotyping the offspring by PCR) they were in-crossed and resulting F1 genotyped. All identified homozygous individuals (baz1b−/−) from the F1 were individually outcrossed with different non-related WT fish, eggs collected and combined to randomly select a population of heterozygous (baz1b+/−) zebrafish to constitute the F2 (minimum of two tanks of 50 individuals each). Finally, F2s were in-crossed and F3 genotyped to establish a breeding stock of fish from each genotype. Primers used for genotyping: forward 5′ AGAAGAAGAAATGGGTCATGCC and reverse 5′ CCTCTTAAACCATCTCACCTTGT.

Generation of Cfap97d1 Mutant Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Pronuclear injection and electroporation were performed to introduce gRNA/Cas9 RNP as previously described [20 ]. Briefly, a gRNA solution was prepared by annealing crRNA (target genome sequence: 5’-AGGTGGACTGCTGGAATGAG -3' and 5’- CTTCGACTCCCACAAAGCCT -3'; Sigma-Aldrich) and tracrRNA (Sigma-Aldrich). Then, two gRNA solutions (gRNA1 and gRNA2) and Cas9 nuclease solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were mixed. The final concentrations of gRNA and Cas9 were as follows: for pronuclear injection, 20 ng/μL gRNA1, 20 ng/μL gRNA2, and 54 ng/μL Cas9 nuclease; for electroporation, 20 ng/μL gRNA1, 20 ng/μL gRNA2, and 100 ng/μL Cas9 nuclease.
The gRNA/Cas9 RNPs introduced embryos (B6D2F1) were transplanted into the oviduct ampulla of pseudopregnant mice (ICR; 10 embryos per ampulla) on the following day. After 19 days, pups were delivered through Caesarean section and placed with foster mothers (ICR). To generate Cfap97d1 heterozygous mutant mice, F0 mice were mated with WT B6D2F1. Mouse colonies with a 3168 bp deletion (referred to as Cfap97d1em1) were maintained by sibling mating and used for the phenotype analysis. The genotyping primers are available in S1 Table. Frozen sperm from Cfap97d1 heterozygous mutants (B6D2-Cfap97d1 , RBRC#10805, CARD#2785) are available through RIKEN BRC (http://en.brc.riken.jp/index.shtml) and CARD R-BASE (http://cardb.cc.kumamoto-u.ac.jp/transgenic/).

Hormone-treated B6D2F1 female mice were mated with B6D2F1 males, and fertilized eggs were collected from the oviduct. Ordered crRNAs (Sigma-Aldrich) and tracrRNA (#tracrRNA05N-5NMOL, Sigma-Aldrich) were annealed, mixed with CAS9 protein (#B25640, Thermo Fisher Scientific), and then were incubated at 37 °C for 5 min to make the gRNA/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex (final concentration: 40 ng/μl gRNA and 100 ng/μl CAS9). The obtained complex was electroporated into fertilized eggs using a superelectroporator NEPA21 (NEPA GENE, Chiba, Japan) (poring pulse, voltage, 225 V; pulse width, 2 ms; pulse interval, 50 ms; number of pulses, +4, attenuation 10%; transfer pulse, voltage, 20 V; pulse width, 50 ms; pulse interval, 50 ms; number of pulses, ±5, attenuation 40%). The eggs were cultivated in KSOM [20 (link)] overnight, and the two-cell stage embryos were transferred into the oviducts of pseudopregnant ICR females. The pups obtained were genotyped by PCR and then subsequently confirmed by Sanger sequencing.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mutation of cyp11c1 was achieved using the SygRNA system (Sigma). A crRNA was designed to target exon 2 of cyp11c1 (ENSDART00000185978.1). Approximately 1 nL of a 4 µL mixture containing 0.1 µM crRNA, 0.1 µM tracrRNA (Sigma), 1 µL phenol red and 1 µL Cas9 (NEB, Ipswich, Massachusetts, USA) was injected into 1-cell stage embryos. The Cas9 cut site overlapped a BslI restriction site, allowing screening for mutant alleles lacking sensitivity to BslI (Supplementary Fig. 1, see section on supplementary materials given at the end of this article). CRISPR/Cas9-injected embryos were raised and outcrossed to unrelated WT fish. The resulting progeny were screened for disruption of cyp11c1, and out-of-frame mutations were identified by DNA sequencing.
