Applications: Transient knockdown of CRBN in target cell poolsGeneration of a stable CRBN knockout cell line following puromycin selection and limiting dilution cloning
Description: Cereblon (CRBN) forms an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex which is responsible for ubiquitinating proteins that regulate various developmental processes. CRBN also binds to Calcium Activated Potassium Channel subunit alpha-1 (KCNMA1) to regulate ion transport. Moreover, mutations in CRBN may play an underlying role in tumor cells acquiring resistance to immunotherapy.The CRBN CRISPR/Cas9 Lentiviruses are replication incompetent, HIV-based VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to transduce almost all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain a CRISPR/Cas9 gene driven by an EF1a promoter, along with 5 sgRNA (single guide RNA) targeting human CRBN.The DNA transduced by this lentivirus integrates randomly into the cellular genome to express both Cas9 and sgRNA. Puromycin selection increases the knockout efficiency by forcing high expression levels of both Cas9 and the sgRNA, and can be used with the integrating lentivirus to quickly and easily achieve high knockdown efficiencies in a cell pool. Efficiencies also depend on the cell type.
Formulation: The lentivirus particles were produced from HEK293T cells. They are supplied in cell culture medium containing 90% DMEM + 10% FBS.
Storage Stability: Lentiviruses are shipped with dry ice. For long term storage, it is recommended to store the virus at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Titers can drop significantly with each freeze-thaw cycle.
Supplied As: Two vials (500 µl x 2) of lentivirus at a titer ≥1 x 107 TU/ml. The titer will vary with each lot; the exact value will be provided with each shipment.
Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
Biosafety Level: BSL-2
