SET-16 promoter in Caenorhabditis elegans


Ceanorhabditis elegans is an organism with a free-methylated cytosine genome. We looked for a worm’s promoter able to be regulated as mammalian CpG island.
pSET-16 is a promoter of Caenorhabditis elegans classified as a HOT (Highly Occupied Target) regions. HOT regions have a rich G-C content that makes them similar to mammalian CpG islands. Some HOT promoters have been mentioned by Chen and one of them, SET-16 (chromosome 3: 13643462-13643761), controls a non-essential gene. That’s why we chose it as a target to test epiCRISPR whithout killing the worm.
