Abstract or Project Summary
Project description: To investigate the function of the MALAT1 in cells and to study the effects of PCB126 and other “dioxin like” xenobiotics on the cell population in the absence of MALAT1 in vivo, we planned to develop the tissue/organ specific targeting at pancreatic cells as well as other organs. MALAT1 knockout mouse model by CRISPR/Cas9 technology with insertion of loxP franking the Malat1-201 which is the longest the transcripts of 4 known transcripts of the Malat1 mouse gene.
