Outline of Final Research Achievements

Using genome editing technology, knock-in vector containing eGFP gene under cricket minimal promoter was introduced into Hox gene loci in the cricket genome. eGFP fluorescent was observed as expected pattern. We succeeded to establish the method for generating enhancer trap line in the cricket. For introducing correctly knock-in direction and junction, knock-in method via MMEJ pathway was applied in the cricket. eGFP gene was correctly introduced into stop codon loci in target gene via MMEJ mediated knock-in, and eGFP expression was observed. In addition, RNA-seq analysis was performed using PacBioRSII. Extracted mRNA from cricket embryo and nymph was fractionated into four, and each fraction was sequenced in 4 cells. As a result, 760,000 reads and 2.25 Gb sequence was obtained in total.
