To facilitate the generation and isolation of precise marker-less edits we have developed a two-step method based on CRISPR-mediated cassette exchange (CriMCE) of a marked placeholder for a variant of interest. This strategy can be used to introduce a wider range of potential edits compared with previous approaches while consolidating the workflow.

The removal of the 450 kb duplications harboring the <i>KIT</i> copy with splice mutation did not alter the white coat color of Yorkshire pigs, which was confirmed by the absence of fully mature melanocytes and melanin accumulation in the hair follicles. Except for the improved transcription of tyrosinase, and slight increase in microphthalmia transcription factor and tyrosinase-related protein 1 protein expression, there was no significant impact of the removal of splice mutations on genes and signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT) involved in melanogenesis.
