Xist-TetOP mutant: ΔC cell line
Invented by Simão Teixeira da Rocha at Instituto de Medicina Molecular João Lobo Antunes
Catalogue Number | 160726 |
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Mouse Xist lncRNA |
Parental Line | Xist-TetOP XY ESCs (Wutz et al., 2002 – PMID: 11780141) |
Host | Mouse |
Model | Stem Cells |
Relevance | Deletion of mouse Xist lncRNA to dissect specific RNA modules in the process of X-chromosome inactivation. |
Production Details | CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing of the Xist-TetOP XY ESC line |
Conditional | No |
Conditional Description | Inducible through addition of doxycycline (1.5 μg/ml) to the medium |
Research Area | Epigenetics & Nuclear Signalling, Stem Cell Biology |
Growth/Phenotype Keywords | Partial disruption of Polycomb recruitment to the inactive X-chromosome. |
Recommended Growing Conditions | ESCs grow in feeder-free classic ESC medium - DMEM media containing 15% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 103 U/ml leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF), 10−4 mM 2‐mercaptoethanol, 50 U/ml penicillin, and 50 μg/ml of streptomycin (Gibco) at 37°C in 5-8% CO2. Medium is changed daily Inducible expression of Xist driven by a TetO promoter is achieved by adding DOX (1.5 μg/ml). |
Positive Control | Yes, Xist-TetOP XY ESCs (Wutz et al., 2002 – PMID: 11780141) |
