Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Ctsh
• Locus ID: 13036
• 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: AL022844
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of the peptidase C1 (papain) family of cysteine proteases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products. These products include the cathepsin H mini, heavy, and light chains. In rat and human, these three chains can associate to form the mature enzyme, which has both aminopeptidase and endopeptidase activities. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit impaired lung surfactant processing and reduced tumorigenesis in a pancreatic cancer model. Multiple pseudogenes of this gene have been identified in the genome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
