Bahcc1
Name: BAH domain and coiled-coil containing 1
Type: Gene
Species: Mouse
Chromosome: 11
Alteration at locus: CRISPR
NCBI: 268515
Homologene: 129585
Genetic Alterations
CRISPR/Cas9 technology generated a TAC to GCT change resulting in a tyrosine to alanine substitution at amino acid 2537 (p.Y2537A). This is equivalent to the human mutation encoding p.Y2533A which disrupts H3K27me3 engagement.

    Strain Development
    Cas9 gRNAs targeting the mouse Bahcc1 Y2537-encoding codon were identified using Benchling software. Three gRNAs overlapping the Y2537-encoding codon were selected for activity testing. Selected gRNAs were cloned into a T7 promoter vector followed by in vitro transcription and spin column purification. Functional testing was performed by transfecting a mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line with gRNA and recombinant Cas9 protein (UNC Protein Expression and Purification Core Facility). Following transfection, the gRNA target site in Bahcc1 was PCR amplified from transfected cells and analyzed by T7endo1 assay to detect Cas9-mediated mutation. Guide RNAs Bahcc1-esg85B (protospacer sequence 5′- gCTCGATGCGGCCTATGT -3′; lower-case g represents a heterologous guanine added for T7 in vitro transcription) and Bahcc1-esg88B (protospacer sequence 5′- gTCGATGCGGCCTATGTA -3′) were selected for microinjection to produce founder C57BL/6J animals. An oligonucleotide donor was designed for precise insertion of the p.Tyr2537Ala-encoding (TAC to GCT) mutation.

    Distribution of this strain requires submission of the MMRRC Conditions of Use (COU). A link to the COU web form will be provided via email after an order has been placed; the form should be completed then or the email forwarded to your institutional official for completion.

    Additional charges may apply for any special requests. Shipping costs are in addition to the basic distribution/resuscitation fees. Information on shipping costs and any additional charges will be provided by the supplying MMRRC facility.

    Litter Recovered litter4; additional fees for any special requests.

    1 The distribution fee covers the expense of rederiving mice from a live mouse; you will receive the resulting litter. The litter will contain at minimum one mutant carrier; the actual number of animals and the gender and genotype ratios will vary. (Typically, multiple breeder pairs can be established from the recovered litter.) Prior to shipment, the MMRRC will provide information about the animals recovered. If you anticipate or find that you need to request specific genotypes, genders or quantities of mice in excess of what is likely from a resuscitated litter, you may discuss available options and pricing with the supplying MMRRC facility.

    2 An aliquot contains a sufficient number of embryos (in one or more vials or straws and based on the transfer success rate of the MMRRC facility) to transfer into one to three recipients. The MMRRC makes no guarantee concerning embryo transfer success experienced in the recipient investigator's laboratory. Neither gender nor genotype ratios are guaranteed.

    3 An aliquot is one straw or vial with sufficient sperm to recover at least one litter of mice, as per provided protocols, when performed at the MMRRC facility. The MMRRC makes no guarantee concerning the success of these procedures when performed outside the MMRRC facilities.

    4 The distribution fee covers the expense of resuscitating mice from the cryo-archive; you will receive the resulting litter. The litter will contain at minimum one mutant carrier; the actual number of animals and the gender and genotype ratios will vary. (Typically, multiple breeder pairs can be established from the recovered litter.) Prior to shipment, the MMRRC will provide information about the animals recovered. If you anticipate or find that you need to request specific genotypes, genders or quantities of mice in excess of what is likely from a resuscitated litter, you may discuss available options and pricing with the supplying MMRRC facility.
