https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Tle4 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Tle4 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Tle4 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_011600 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000024642 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 19. 20 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 20 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000052011). Exon 7 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Tle4 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-68P6 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are runted and die around 4 weeks of age with leukocytopenia, B cell lymphopenia, reduced bone mineralization and reduced hematopoietic stem cell number and function. Exon 7 starts from about 16.86% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 7 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 6 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 26814 bp, and the size of intron 7 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 1396 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~702 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis. Overview of the GC Content Distribution Window size: 300 bp Sequence 12 Summary: Full Length(7202bp) | A(29.73% 2141) | C(17.5% 1260) | T(33.55% 2416) | G(19.23% 1385) Note: The sequence of homologous arms and cKO region is analyzed to determine the GC content. No significant high GC-content region is found. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis.
