CRISPR-Gene Specific Duo Set
CRISPR-Cas (Clustered regularly-interspaced short palindromic repeats) has evolved to be the prokaryotic immune system that confers resistance to foreign genetic elements such as plasmids and phages, and provides a form of acquired immunity. The CRISPR-Cas9 system has been adapted in mammalian system for targeted gene knock-out (KO) and Knock-in (KI).
The CRISPR system is "cheap, quick and easy to use" (Nature, 2015, Vol 522, pages 20-24) for editing gene features in mammalian cells, Lifeome configured CRISPR-Cas9 systems to make it even easier to adopt in your lab by offering:
- All-in-one Plasmid with Cas9 readily expressed, just clone your gDNA
- Ready to use, gene specific pre-designed Duo-gRNA sets, just transfect target cells
- Pre-designed gene specific Duo-gRNA sets for in vitro gRNA production
- AAV and Lentiviral CRISPR systems available
- Mouse and Rat knock-out and knock-in services, constitutive or inducible
For most human, mouse and rat genes, Lifeome has selected two gRNA targeting sequences and cloned into pGL3-U6 gRNA transcription vector. The sequences are selected for high effiency targeting using CRISPR-Cas9 system but low "off-target" potentials. The Duo Sets can be co-transfected with Cas9 expression plasmids into cells for effective gene targeting.
