http://www.alphaknockout.com/ Mouse Myl6 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
Objective: To create a Myl6 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6N) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering.
Strategy summary: The Myl6 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_010860 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000090841 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 10. 6 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 6 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000164181). Exon 3~6 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Myl6 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-128E20 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: The expression of mouse Smarcc2 may be affected by deletion of this cKO region.
Exon 3~6 is not frameshift exon, and covers 93.16% of the coding region. The size of intron 2 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 793 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~2636 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

Overview of the Dot Plot Window size: 10 bp
Forward Reverse Complement
Note: The sequence of homologous arms and cKO region 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.
Overview of the GC Content Distribution Window size: 300 bp
Summary: Full Length(8386bp) | A(22.72% 1905) | C(24.3% 2038) | G(28.01% 2349) | T(24.97% 2094)
Note: The sequence of homologous arms and cKO region is analyzed to determine the GC content. Significant high GC-content regions are found. It may be difficult to construct this targeting vector.
