Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Pnoc
• Locus ID: 18155
• 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: N/OFQ; Npnc1; OFQ/N
• Summary: This gene encodes the precursor for neuropeptides that have been implicated in a wide range of physiological roles such as transmission and sensitivity to pain, learning, memory, anxiety and depression, in the central nervous system. The encoded protein is a precursor that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple biologically active peptides including nociceptin and nocistatin which have opposite functions in pain transmission. Mice lacking the encoded protein display increased anxiety, elevated basal pain threshold and impaired adaptation to repeated stress. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
