Abstract
Disclosed is a new method of providing plant cells with a targeted alteration in a DNA molecule. The method comprises contacting a population of plant cells comprising a DNA molecule, the DNA molecule having a target sequence, with an aqueous medium, wherein the aqueous medium comprises a CRISPR associated protein (CAS protein) or a CAS-like protein, and a CRISPR-Cas system guide RNA that hybridizes with the target sequence, and wherein the aqueous medium comprises polyethylene glycol (PEG), but needs to be substantially free of glycerol.
