Strain description Comparison of coat colors

A mouse strain in which Hps1, one of the genes responsible for Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS), is knocked out by genome editing (CRISPR/Cas9). Guide RNAs were set at Exon 5 in the Hps1 gene, and small deletion was induced in the exon by genome editing. Homozygous KO mice have a paler coat color than C57BL/6N wild-type mice (B6 mice, see photos). The strain is expected to be used as an HPS model.
