Identification of the genetic cause of hornlessness in cattle has been the subject of intensive genetic and genomic research, culminating in the nomination of two different candidate neomutations on cattle chromosome 1 that are predicted to have arisen 500-1,000 years ago: a complex allele of Friesian origin (PF), an 80,128 base pair (bp) duplication (1909352–1989480 bp), and a second, simple allele of Celtic origin (PC) corresponding to a duplication of 212 bp (chromosome 1 positions 1705834–1706045) in place of a 10-bp deletion (1706051–1706060)We report the use of genome editing using transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) to introgress the putative PC POLLED allele into the genome of bovine embryo fibroblasts to try and produce a genotype identical to what is achievable using natural mating, but without the attendant genetic drag and admixture.
