Cre-loxP recombination system is a powerful tool for genome engineering. One of its applications is found in genetic mouse models that often require to induce Cre recombination in preimplantation embryos. Here, we describe a technically simple, affordable and highly efficient protocol for Cre protein delivery into mouse zygotes by electroporation. We show that electroporation based delivery of Cre has no negative impact on embryo survival and the method can be easily combined with in vitro fertilization resulting in a significantly faster generation of desired models. Lastly, we demonstrate that Cre protein electroporation is suitable for allelic conversion in primary cells derived from conditional mouse models.
