http://www.alphaknockout.com/ Mouse Clcn7 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)* Objective: To create a Clcn7 conditional knockout mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Clcn7 gene ( NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_011930 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000036636 ) is located on mouse chromosome 17. 25 exons are identified , with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 25 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000040729). Exon 2~5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the mouse Clcn7 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-99I16 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 postnatal lethality, abnormal bone formation, including osteopetrosis, and retinal degeneration. Mice homozygous for a conditional allele exhibit lysosomal defects with neuronal degeneration and accumulationof giant lysosomes in renal tubule cells. The knockout of Exon 2~5 will result in frameshift of the gene, and covers 14.11% of the coding region. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 10815 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 320 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~2525 bp. This strategy is designed based on genetic information in existing databases. Due to the complexity of biological processes, all risk of loxP insertion on gene transcription, RNA splicing and protein translation cannot be predicted at existing technological level.

Tandem repeats are found in the dot plot matrix. It may be difficult to construct this targeting vector. Overview of the GC Content Distribution Window size: 300 bp Sequence 12 Summary: Full Length(8840bp) | A(22.31% 1972) | C(24.79% 2191) | G(26.57% 2349) | T(26.33% 2328) 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.
