Description
The GenCRISPR™
SaCas9 2NLS Nuclease can be formed with the guide RNA into a ribonucleoprotien
(RNP) complex. The use of an RNP complex to perform gene editing has been shown
to reduce the challenges encountered with other CRISPR gene editing techniques
such as viral and plasmid delivery. Challenges include off-target effects, cell
viability and transcription/translational challenges. The SaCas9 recognizes an
NNGRRT protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and cleaves target DNA at high
efficiency with a variety of guide RNA (gRNA) spacer lengths.
GenCRISPR™ SaCas9 2NLS
Nuclease is a tag free nuclease produced by expression in an E. coli strain carrying a plasmid
encoding the Cas9 gene from Staphylococcus
aureus with a nuclear localization signal at both N-terminal and C-terminal.The
small size of the nuclease facilitates enhanced in vivo delivery for genome
editing in various organisms.
