Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Adam15
• Locus ID: 11490
• 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

• RefSeq: NM_001037722, NM_009614
• Synonyms: AD56; MDC15
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) family of endoproteases that play important roles in various biological processes including cell signaling, adhesion and migration. This gene is prominently expressed in vascular cells, the endocardium, hypertrophic cells in developing bone, and specific areas of hippocampus and cerebellum. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, functional protein. Mice lacking the encoded protein have increased bone mass resulting from osteoblast proliferation, and exhibit reduced neovascularization in a mouse model for retinopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar processing. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
