“…Germline transmission success rates from injecting into the yolk range from 12.5% (Burg et al, 2016) to 37.5% (Burg et al, 2018), although this range results from a limited number of studies. Comparison of the most successfully modified genes (somatic and germline modified), flna, tyr, noto, tbx20, rb1, msna, twist2, rpl18, krtt1c19e, anxa2a, and ybx1 (with use of drug), suggests there is an advantage to injecting into the cell vs. the yolk (Hisano et al, 2015;Moreno-Mateos et al, 2017;Burg et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2018;Bai et al, 2020;Wierson et al, 2020). Comparing the techniques used for these 11 genes and 14 modifications (tyr was modified by four different labs), 12 out of 14 techniques utilized injecting into the cytoplasm of the 1-or 2-cell stage embryo.…”
