molecularNote | CRISPR/cas9 endonuclease-mediated genome editing is used to target the super enhancer (SE) sequences ~15 kb proximal of the microRNA 290a locus on chromosome 7, as well as Snrpn::tdTomato::WPRE::BHGpA::loxP-PGK-Puro-loxP sequences (encoding the minimal Snrpn promoter, the tdTomato fluorescent protein, a WPRE sequence, a BGH polyadenylation sequence and a loxP-flanked PGK-Puro selection cassette). Junction PCR-SNP analyses identified ES c ells with the Snrpn::tdTomato::WPRE::BHGpA sequences inserted into the Mir290a SE on the 129S1 chromosome. Those ES cells were transfected with a Cre recombinase-expressing plasmid to remove the PGK-Puro cassette. |
