Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Casp9
• Locus ID: 12371
• 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.

• Summary: This gene is part of a family of caspases, aspartate-specific cysteine proteases well studied for their involvement in immune and apoptosis signaling. This protein, the initiator caspase, is activated after cytochrome c release from mitochondria and targets downstream effectors. In mouse, deficiency of this gene can cause perinatal lethality. This protein may have a role in normal brain development. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]
