Abstract

The development of mRNA knockdown technologies for use in vertebrate organisms such as zebrafish has been limited. Kushawah et al. establish CRISPR-RfxCas13d as an efficient, specific, cost-effective, and straightforward method for the systematic and tractable study of gene function in vivo during embryogenesis across a range of animal species.
