Product Data

• Format: 2 gRNA vectors, 1 linear donor
• Donor DNA: EF1a-GFP-P2A-Puro
• Symbol: Tgfa
• Locus ID: 21802
• 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_031199
• Synonyms: wa-1; wa1
• Summary: This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of proteins that regulate cellular proliferation. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a soluble glycoprotein that is secreted by the cell. The secreted protein binds to the EGF receptors to initiate signaling events resulting in cellular proliferation, mucous production or inhibition of gastric acid secretion. The transgenic expression of the encoded protein in mice induces the development of cancers in various tissues such as liver, pancreas, skin and mammary glands. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit a wavy coat and curly whiskers phenotype as well as abnormalities in the eye. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
