Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Mfrp
• Locus ID: 259172
• Disclaimer: The kit is designed based on the best knowledge of CRISPR technology. The system has been functionally validated for knocking-in the cassette downstream the native promoter. The efficiency of the knock-out varies due to the nature of the biology and the complexity of the experimental process.

Reference Data

• Synonyms: rd6
• Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains a region with similarity to the cysteine-rich domain (CRD) of frizzled, a gene originally found in Drosophila that controls tissue polarity. This protein functions in eye development, where it is necessary for the maintenance of photoreceptor outer segments. Mutations in this gene cause retinal degeneration 6 in mice, which gives rise to a mouse model for human retinitis punctata albescens. Bicistronic transcripts composed of the coding sequences for this gene (Mfrp) and the C1q and tumor necrosis factor related protein 5 gene (C1qtnf5) have been identified, and the resulting products can interact with each other. Co-transcription of C1qtnf5 and Mfrp has been observed in both human and mouse. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
