Transposon Insertion Site Sequencing (TIS-Seq): An Efficient and High-Throughput Method for Determining Transposon Insertion Site(s) and Their Relative Abundances in a PiggyBac Transposon Mutant Pool by Next-Generation Sequencing.

Abstract excerpt

The PiggyBac (PB) transposon has emerged as a novel mutagenesis tool for understanding gene function and for phenotypic screening in eukaryotes. Successful screening of PB transposon mutants relies on efficient identification of transposon insertion site(s) (TIS) in mutant cells. However, currently available methods suffer from time-consuming steps. Here, we present the method for transposon insertion site...
