CRISPR-U™ technology (CRISPR based), developed by Ubigene, is more efficient than general
CRISPR/Cas9 technology in double-strand breaking and homologous recombination. With CRISPR-U™, Ubigene has
successfully edited over 3000 genes on more than 200 types of cell lines.
Objective
To create a Human FH Knockout
model in cell line by CRISPR-U™-mediated genome engineering.

Genomic regions
Chromosome 1
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

Project Comprehensive Difficulty Assessment
According to the Red Cotton database: the FH gene is evaluated as high lethality riskin cell line, and the CRISPR gene-editing strategy design is Unknown. Knockout project comprehensive difficulty is thus assessed as Unknown. KO experiment is not recommended.
