Will CRISPR-Cas9 knockout of a gene lead to reduction in the level of it's expression?

Generally, CRISPR-Cas9 editing leads to the formation of indels at the target site in the coding sequence of a gene. This often results in an altered reading frame (frameshift mutation) which will...

How to get the correct transcript out of alternatively spliced transcripts?

I'm trying to clone the CDS of a gene. This gene harbors 12 Exons and 11 Introns. Size of the CDS is about 4 kb. After amplifying the CDS, I have cloned it into a cloning vector. Sequencing result...
