Which E. coli strain is everyone using? Stbl3?

HelloI used LentiCRISPRv2 to delete my gene of interest in 293 cells. I picked isolated single cell colonies from the transfected cells. The region of mutation has Nci I digestion site in it. I amplified the region of mutations using primers that land on either side of site of mutation (about 1 kb fragment). Digestion of this fragment with NciI shows that the site has been destructed, my Cas9 worked!!Now I am trying to sequence this PCR product using Sanger sequencing, so that I know what exactly is deleted. Everytime I sequence them, I get a unanimous sequence upto the point of mutation and after that there is noise for the rest of the sequence. It happens when I sequence from both the ends, upstream and downstream of site of mutation. I suspected heterogenous cell populations and I started subcloning the cells and picked single cell colonies on isolated 96 well plates.When I sequence DNA from cells of those subcloned isolated colonies, I still see the same result: Good sequencing consensus to the point of mutation and then noise, with both upstream primer and downstream primer. Interestingly, the sequence readout of the noise in between different clones matches to each other to a great extent.How is that possible? Has anybody encountered this problem?Also, what would be the better approach to identify the deletion? We do not have access to NGS facility.
Yes! Thats what I am planning to do next. I was wondering if there was any other trick beside that.Thanks

So my TIDE results are back,my TOPO blunt ligation results are back.with TIDE analysis on the sequences of my PCR product, I saw three predicted mutation, a +1, a -18 and a -20 predominant above others.I TOPO captured the same PCR product, and I sequenced miniprep from 5 colonies, my Sanger sequencing yielded similar results as my initial sequencing, even in TOPO captured PCR product. I have nice chromatogram peaks in the begining but they go all aberrant after the point of mutation. Just out of curiosity, I ran those chromatograms in TIDE, and now I see about 92% efficiency with 18 bp deletion,
My questions,1. Is this normal ?2. How do you predict which base pairs are deleted? aligning the sequences in MacVector with Wildtype sequence doesnot help anything because of aberrant sequence.3. Is there any other sequencing method besides Sanger sequencing? I don't know how NGS works? Will NGS be able to solve this issue?Nabin
