Cas9 Nickase Lentiviral Vector
Specifications
SKU | K005 |
Name | Cas9 Nickase Lentiviral Vector |
Unit | 10 µg |
Caution | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. Please contact a technical service representative for more information. |
Vector | pLenti-EF1a-Cas9-Nickase-SV40-Puro |
Description |
This Cas9 nickase can be used with two target-specific sgRNAs to bind DNA and create two single-stranded cuts. Due to the requirement for two sgRNA guide sequences to be close together for gene editing to occur, using Cas9 nickase should cause fewer off-target effects than using Cas9 nuclease. |
Format | Vector |
Shipping Conditions |
Shipped at ambient temperature |
Note |
Cas9 Nickase includes N-terminal SV40 NLS |

FAQs
How long after transduction can the infection efficiency be observed? | |
You can observe transduction efficiency from 48 hours up to 5 days after infection.
|
What kind of mutation does this contain? | |
D10A mutation
|
Is this Cas9-nickase codon-optimized for a specific cell type? | |
It is codon optimized for human expression.
|
What type of selection marker does this contain? | |
This lentiviral vector contains a puromycin marker for mammalian selection.
|
What is the sequence? | |
We are unable to release the sequence of our Cas9 Nickase as it has been codon optimized and is proprietary information.
|
What are the primers to use for SV40T and SV40T tsA58 detection? | |
PCR primers:
SV40T Forward Primer Sequence
5’ AGCCTGTAGAACCAAACATT 3'
SV40T Reverse Primer Sequence
5’ CTGCTGACTCTCAACATTCT 3'
The two primers should amplify the region between 3677-4468bp, giving a 792bp fragment.
|
What is the sequence of the SV40 large T antigen? | |
This information can be accessed on this page by clicking on "pLenti-SV40-T" under vector map. The Large T antigen is at position 5079-5927.
|
Can you provide the sequence for this plasmid? | |
We are unable to release the sequence of our Cas9 Nickase / Nuclease as it has been codon optimized for expression and this is proprietary information. A vector map can be located however by clicking on the vector name.
|
For G221 and LV620, what does the 'V12' in RasV12 mean? | |
The V12 means that amino acid # 12 is mutated from a Valine to a Glycine. Other than that, the sequence matches the coding region of HRAS perfectly (NM_005343).
|
Where is the SV40T tsA58 gene sequence? | |
The SV40T tsA58 gene is located between 3138-5264bp, with the Alanine-to-Valine mutation at amino acid 438.
