Mouse Tmx1 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
Objective: To create a Tmx1 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering.
Strategy summary: The Tmx1 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_028339 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000021072 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 12. 8 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 8 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000021471). Exon 2~7 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: No notable phenotype was detected in a high-throughput screen of homozygous mice.
Exon 2 starts from about 18.35% of the coding region. Exon 2~7 covers 60.67% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~8455 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

Overview of the Dot Plot (up) Window size: 15 bp
Forward Reverse Complement
Sequence 12
Note: The 2000 bp section upstream of Exon 2 is aligned with itself to determine if there are tandem repeats. Tandem repeats are found in the dot plot matrix. The gRNA site is selected outside of these tandem repeats.

Sequence 12
Note: The 1511 bp section downstream of Exon 7 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.
