Cas9 Nickase Lentiviral Vector
| Cat. No. | K005 |
| Name | Cas9 Nickase Lentiviral Vector |
| Unit | 10 µg |
| Description |
Lentiviral vector expressing Cas9 Nickase (D10A) with N-terminal SV40 NLS. This modified version of the Cas9 protein introduces single-strand breaks (nicks) in DNA instead of double-strand breaks, reducing off-target effects in genome editing. |
| Applications |
CRISPR Cas9 gene editing. |
| Storage Condition | -20°C or below. |
| Material Citation | If use of this material results in a scientific publication, please cite the material in the following manner: Applied Biological Materials Inc, Cat. No. K005 |
Print/Download Datasheet
| Is the Cas9 nickase codon-optimized for a specific cell type? | |
|
It is codon optimized for human/mamalian cell expression, but has no cell or tissue type specificity.
|
| What mutation does the Cas9 nickase contain? | |
|
D10A mutation.
|
| Do I need to provide my own sgRNA? | |
|
Yes, this product only expresses the Cas9 or Cas-related protein. We offer genome-wide sgRNA only expressing vectors for CRISPR gene knockout (spCas9 and saCas9) and CRISPR gene activation and repression which are available through the Customize Vector option. Similarly, abm also offers Custom CRISPR Vectors and Viruses, please inquire with us to get started on your CRISPR project.

| How is the CRISPR nickase system different from the regular CRISPR Cas9 system? | |
|
The Cas9 nickase introduces single-strand breaks instead of double-strand breaks, offering higher specificity and lower off-target effects, especially when used in paired nickase configurations. In contrast, regular Cas9 creates DSBs, which are efficient for gene knockout but more prone to off-target mutations.
