Description: rat strain designed to express Cas9 under the control of the rat Ddx4 (Vasa) regulatory elements while also retaining expression of Ddx4. The strategy entailed insertion of a P2A sequence followed by human-codon-optimized Cas9 coding sequences with nuclear localization signals near the C-terminus of the rat Ddx4 (Vasa) gene. Animals express Cas9 in the testis in the spermatogonial layer and in meiosis stages with 4N DNA content. Strain catalyzes high levels of Active Genetic Gene conversion when paired with certain Active Genetic cassettes.
