| Which splice junction to target, predicting cryptic splice sites, and doing the two-non-overlapping oligo specificity experiment |
I've had the pleasure of corresponding with Yuhong Liang （梁雨虹）of 4A Biotech in China; she is the product manager for Morpholino oligos at 4A Biotech. We have been working with 4A for a little over a year now and Yuhong has been learning very quickly, but is still new enough to the Morpholino field that she is asking questions of broad interest. She had some questions regarding which splice junction to target, predicting cryptic splice sites, and the process of doing the two-non-overlapping oligo specificity experiment. |

| Getting Morpholinos into cultured cells |
There are three usual options to consider for cell culture experiments with Morpholinos. There are other methods, but most labs choose one of these. (1) If your cells can tolerate electroporation, that is an inexpensive option for delivery of standard Morpholino oligos. However, electroporation causes high cell mortality for many cell types. |
