Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Edn2
• Locus ID: 13615
• 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_007902
• Synonyms: ET-2; PPET2; VIC
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of the endothelin family of peptides. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a potent vasoconstrictive peptide. This gene is abundantly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract, strongly induced in photorecepteror cells in retinal diseases and injury, and produced by microglia and macrophages in the early stages of glaucoma. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit severe growth retardation, hypothermia and juvenile lethality. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
