Depending from which mutant bank you request the mutants is possible
to see the orientation of the insertion on the SIGnAL T-DNA Express
tool (http://signal.salk.edu/cgi-bin/tdnaexpress), just need the AGI
number of the interrupted gene and the code of the mutant. The page
will display the gene orientation on the genome and the orientation of
all T-DNA insertion mapped to that gene. If you have your own mutant
bank generated by T-DNA insertion, to find the T-DNA orientation you
should perform a TAIL-PCR using the T-DNA that you prefer.
I hope this help...
