Hi Patrick,
Thanks for the response. I am trying to inject the Cas9 and sgRNA in the mRNA format in the mice embryos. For Cas9 I have already ordered the mRNA format from PNA bio but for sgRNA I need to synthesize the sgRNA using the linearized pRGEN-U6 vector and ligating the 20bp oligos and then looking for the clones. After I have the oligos inserted in the pRGEN-U6 vector how I can synthesize the sgRNAs in the mRNA format.
Please suggest
TAATACGACTCACTATAGGG
Here is an example T7-gRNA oligo (5'-3'): aaaaaagcaccgactcggtgccactttttcaagttgataacggactagccttattttaacttgctatttctagctctaaaacttatccgtgaccggggacctccctatagtgagtcgtatta

Hi Patrick,
Thank you very much for your response. The first 2 parts I now understand but I have some more specifics about adding the T7 promoter sequence to my DNA and then about transcribing it to RNA.
In the X330 vector the sequence is as follows:
5’
U6 promoter (241 bp)
GCCCGCATGGCAGTTGCACAaaaaaagcaccgactcggtgccactttttcaagttgataacggactagccttattttaacttgctatttctagctctaaaac
3’
TARGET SEQUENCE (OR SPACER)
tracrRNA
So my target
sequence is before my tracrRNA. Does this mean I need to amplify my DNA with
Forward primer;
TAATACGACTCACTATAGGGGCCCGCATGGCAGTTGCACA
With the
green being the T7 sequence and the underlined
being my spacer sequence?
Also, what would the reverse primer be in this situation?
Do I then purify this before using the kit you mentioned above?
Again, I apologise for the very specific questions,
Thanks,
RyanOligos to insert to PX330 (green is the gRNA)
5’ CACCCAGGCTGTACATCGCCGGGG 3’
3’GTCCGACATGTAGCGGCCCCCAAA 5’
T7-gRNA F: 5’ TTAATACGACTCACTATAGCAGGCTGTACATCGCCGGGG 3’
(yellow is T7 promoter)
Reverse primer: 5’ AAAAGCACCGACTCGGTGCC 3’
After the IVT you need to clean up the gRNA, you can use RNeasy mini kit.
Cheers,
Fatwa

Best,I have seen a paper for TALENs plasmid injection instead of RNA which was as efficient as RNA, haven’t seen it yet for CRISPR. Logic tells me it shouldn’t be different…
