Mouse Ndufaf2 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
Objective: To create a Ndufaf2 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering.
Strategy summary: The Ndufaf2 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001127346.1 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000068184 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 13. 4 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 4 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000163558). Exon 4 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit impaired complex I mitochondrial activity.
Exon 4 starts from about 51.39% of the coding region. Exon 4 covers 48.81% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~246 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Note: The 246 bp section of Exon 4 is aligned with itself to determine if there are tandem repeats. No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.
