Summary: Gene silencing by P-element-induced wimpy testis-interacting RNAs is a mechanism to maintain genome integrity in germ cells. Here, we present a protocol for knockin or knockout editing of male germline genome mediated by CRISPR-Cas9 technology in Caenorhabditis elegans. We describe steps for constructing edited plasmids, microinjecting worms with these plasmids, and screening edited worms. We then detail procedures for dissecting released sperm and their observation with fluorescence microscopy. Engineered worms provide a model for studying hermaphrodite/male fertility or protein localization in vivo.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Wang et al. (2021).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
