Join the scientists at Bio-Rad Laboratories for a walkthrough of the gene editing and genotyping lab activities in Bio-Rad’s Out of the Blue CRISPR Gene Editing and Genotyping Extension Kits. These award-winning activities put the power of true CRISPR gene editing into your students’ hands with safe and familiar materials, elegant and instructive controls, and engaging supporting activities.

In this webinar Bio-Rad scientists will discuss the following: 

  • Using CRISPR-Cas9 to cut and edit the endogenous bacterial lacZ gene
  • Screening for genomic edits using blue-white screening
  • Illustrating the roles of all components of the CRISPR-Cas9 system (targeting, cutting, and repair) with a complete set of controls
  • Confirming the genomic edit with multiplex PCR and gel electrophoresis
  • Use of bioinformatics to model the discovery of CRISPR-Cas9 targets in the human genome
