Genome editing technology for gene knockout

Mondo Science Updated on 2024-01-30

Introduction

Genome editing is a genetic manipulation technique that can modify DNA sequences at the genome level. The principle of this technology is to construct an artificial endonuclease to cut off DNA at a predetermined genome location, and the cut DNA will produce mutations in the process of being repaired by the DNA repair system in the cell, so as to achieve the purpose of site-specific modification of the genome.

CRISPR is a gene-editing technology for the bacterial immune system that recognizes target cell DN The nucleotide sequence of the target in the segment uses the endonuclease protein to cleave the DNA target sequence to produce a double-stranded DNA break, which will be repaired by the cell repair mechanism in vivo, among which, the repair of non-homologous end-attached nhej will produce a short nucleic acid insertion or deletion, and the gene frameshift mutation brought by it will lead to the early appearance of the stop codon, so as to complete the knockout of the target cell DNA target gene fragment. The Cas9 gRNA gene drum removal system recognizes a specific DNA sequence through a small gRNA segment and cleaves the DNA near the recognition site, so as to achieve site-directed knockout or knock-in of the gene. Since specific gene recognition is accomplished by a small piece of RNA, i.e., gRNA, while the protein components in the system remain unchanged, it is very convenient to use different synthetic or expressed gRNAs to cooperate with Cas9 protein to achieve knockout of different genes.

A mature and stable experimental system for gene interference expression has been established, which can provide you with gene knockout cell line construction services for a variety of different cells (including difficult-to-transfect cells). It has a mature cell experiment service platform, and the service content is rich and detailed. At the same time, it can also provide customers with a variety of technical services including overexpression, silencing and stable cell line construction.
