Mouse Snap23 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Snap23 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Snap23 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Snap23 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001177792 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000027287 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 2. 9 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TAA stop codon in exon 9 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000116437). Exon 3~5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Snap23 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-117D14 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 exhibit lethality prior to E3.5. Exon 3 starts from about 8.75% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 3~5 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 2 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 785 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 4386 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1626 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(8126bp) | A(28.13% 2286) | C(18.8% 1528) | T(31.05% 2523) | G(22.02% 1789) 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.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

SOAPfuse applies an improved partial exhaustion algorithm to construct a library of fusion junction sequences, which can be used to efficiently identify fusion events, and employs a series of filters to nominate high-confidence fusion transcripts. Compared with other released tools, SOAPfuse achieves higher detection efficiency and consumed less computing resources. We applied SOAPfuse to RNA-Seq data from two bladder cancer cell lines, and confirmed 15 fusion transcripts, including several novel events common to both cell lines. SOAPfuse is available at http://soap.genomics.org.cn/soapfuse.html. Background of species [9-16]. In addition, RNA-Seq has been proven Gene fusions, arising from the juxtaposition of two distinct to be a sensitive and efficient approach to gene fusion regions in chromosomes, play important roles in carcino- discovery in many types of cancers [17-20].

The oligo is subsequently purified by affinity-solid phase extraction. The annealed RNA duplex is further analyzed by mass spectrometry to verify the exact composition of the duplex. Each lot is compared to the previous lot by mass spectrometry to ensure maximum lot-to-lot consistency. Components We offers pre-designed sets of 3 different target-specific siRNA oligo duplexes of human LRRC57 gene. Each vial contains 5 nmol of lyophilized siRNA. The duplexes can be transfected individually or pooled together to achieve knockdown of the target gene, which is most commonly assessed by qPCR or western blot. Our siRNA oligos are also chemically modified (2’-OMe) at no extra charge for increased stability and enhanced knockdown in vitro and in vivo. Directions for Use We recommends transfection with 100 nM siRNA 48 to 72 hours prior to cell lysis. Application key: E- ELISA, WB- Western blot, IH- Immunohistochemistry,

In the present study, we describe clinical and genetic data from two patients, a mother and her daughter, with familial brain tumors. Exome sequencing revealed a germline missense mutation in the TP53 and ATRX genes in both cases, and a somatic copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in TP53 in both atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) and astrocytoma tumors.
