Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Acox1
• Locus ID: 11430
• Disclaimer: The kit is designed based on the best knowledge of CRISPR technology. The system has been functionally validated for knocking-in the cassette downstream the native promoter. The efficiency of the knock-out varies due to the nature of the biology and the complexity of the experimental process.

Reference Data

• Synonyms: Acox; AOX; D130055E20Rik; Paox
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of the acyl-coenzyme A oxidase family. The encoded protein is localized to peroxisomes and is the first enzyme of the fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway, which catalyzes the desaturation of acyl-coenzyme A to 2-trans-enoyl-coenzyme A. Disruption of this gene results in microvesicular steatohepatitis, spontaneous peroxisome proliferation, and the eventual development of hepatocellular carcinomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
