CRISPR Activation & Repression
CRISPR Activation (CRISPRa) allows for gene specific up-regulation by using dCas9-SAM. This fusion protein consists of the catalytically dead Cas9 (dCas9) enzymefused to the Synergistic Activation Mediator (SAM). sgRNAs are designed to target and guide dCas9-SAM to the upstream promoter 5' UTR region of a specific gene thereby resulting in transcriptional up-regulation.
Search Activation sgRNA Library
For gene activation, search for your gene of interest either by Gene Name or Accession Number:
Key Features
- Comprehensive collection of gene activation sgRNAs
- Targets include all human, mouse and rat genes.
- Available in a set of 3 sgRNA vectors/viruses for added assurance of efficient gene activation
- Lentiviral delivery results in host integration of DNA, leading to long term gene expression
- Lentiviral vectors can be transfected for non-integrating, transient sgRNA expression
