Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Multiple alignment of the CDS region of ENSG00000205704 in human with the orthologous regions in chimpanzee, rhesus macaque and mouse. The protein sequence encoded by ENSG00000205704 in human was shown, with the start and stop codons highlighted in the diagram of the gene. b, The design of CRISPR/Cas9 assay to knock-out ENSG00000205704, with the sequences and the target regions of the gRNAs shown. The ENSG00000205704-KO hESC line was further verified by Sanger sequencing, as shown below the diagram. c, Immunofluorescence staining of HA tag (HA, indicative of the expression of ENSG00000205704 protein with HA tag) and OCT4 (OCT4) in hESCs with the overexpression of ENSG00000205704 (OE). Scale bars, 20 μm. This experiment was repeated 5 times independently with similar results. d, PCR validation of the knock-out assay. CTRL, wild type hESCs; ENSG00000205704-KO, three replicates of ENSG00000205704-KO hESCs with the target region removed on both chromosomes. e, Western blots showing the expression of the HA-tagged ENSG00000205704 protein in wide type hESCs (CTRL), and the hESCs with the over expression of the HA-tagged ENSG00000205704 protein (OE), This experiment was repeated 3 times independently with similar results.
