An episomal vector-based CRISPR/Cas9 system for highly efficient gene knockout in human pluripotent stem cells

Abstract Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) represent a unique opportunity for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying complex traits and diseases. CRISPR/Cas9 is a powerful tool to introduce genetic mutations into the hPSCs for loss-of-function studies. Here, we developed an episomal ve...
