Editing of mouse and human immunoglobulin genes by CRISPR-Cas9 system

CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to generate a range of genetic modifications including gene knock-outs and chromosomal rearrangements. Here the authors target the immunogloblin genes and demonstrate the induction of class switch recombination, opening up possibilities for research and antibody production.
