Abstract
Mutations in the human KCNV2 gene cause a rare hereditary disease — cone dystrophy with supernormal rod response (CDSRR), characterized by progressive vision loss and impaired color discrimination. The KCNV2 gene encodes the Kv8.2 subunit of a potassium channel that is critical for the normal function of retinal photoreceptors. Gene therapy offers a promising treatment approach for this condition. To test the efficacy of gene therapy, an appropriate experimental disease model, such as a knockout mouse model, is required. This study focused on selecting optimal guide RNAs for knocking out the Kcnv2 gene using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and testing their efficiency in a mouse cell line. The selected guide RNAs can be utilized to generate a Kcnv2-/- mouse model.
