Molecular and cellular probes

This study aimed to generate mutant mice containing the Acvrl1 gene flanked with LoxP sequences to allow conditional deletion of Acvrl1 by the LoxP/Cre system. Such mice may facilitate the development of brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM) models. ⋯ CRISPR/Cas9 is a reliable gene-editing tool, and is able to efficiently modify Acvrl1 and create the target mice.
