Mouse Clstn1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
Objective: To create a Clstn1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering.
Strategy summary: The Clstn1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_023051 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000039953 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 4. 19 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 19 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000039144). Exon 3~9 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: Juvenile mice homozygous for a null allele show reduced basal excitatory synaptic transmission, abnormal excitatory postsynaptic currents, enhanced NMDA receptor-dependent long term potentiation, and delayed dendritic spine maturation in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells.
Exon 3 starts from about 7.32% of the coding region. Exon 3~9 covers 38.88% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~9269 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Note: The 2000 bp section upstream of Exon 3 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.

Note: The 2000 bp section upstream of Exon 3 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.
