Applications: 1. Quickly generating knock-out cell pools or cell lines in HEK293 cells.
2. Implementing sgRNA screens in Cas9-expressing HEK293 cells.

Background: Cas9 (Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR associated protein 9) is an endonuclease enzyme that, when recruited to a specific DNA sequence by the sgRNA (single guide RNA), introduces a double stranded break into the DNA. This double stranded break is repaired in mammalian cells either through Non-Homologous End Joining or Homologous Recombination. Non-Homologous End Joining often results in the deletion or insertion of several base pairs at the cut site, which, when resulting in a frameshift, causes the functional inactivation of the targeted gene. Cas9-expressing HEK293 cell lines can be transduced or electroporated with sgRNA targeting a gene of interest to quickly generate knock-out cell pools or cell lines.

Description: This cell line was generated by limiting dilution from a cell population stably transfected using Cas9 lentivirus (BPS Bioscience #78066). Isolated clones were screened based on Cas9 expression to obtain a high-expressing cell line. The expressed Cas9 protein includes a C-terminal FLAG tag.

Host Cell Line: HEK293

Mycoplasma Testing: This cell line has been screened using the MycoAlert™ Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Lonza, #LT07-118) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma contamination. MycoAlert Assay Control Set (Lonza, #LT07-518) was used as a positive control.

Storage Stability: Cells will arrive upon dry ice and should immediately be thawed or stored in liquid nitrogen upon receipt. Do not use a -80°C freezer for long term storage.

Supplied As: Each vial contains ~2 x 10^6 cells in 1 ml of FBS with 10% DMSO.

Tags: C-terminal FLAG-tag

Uniprot: Q99ZW2

Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Biosafety Level: BSL-2
