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._x000D_
Cas9 Lentivirus can be used to generate Cas9 expressing cells in almost any mammalian cell line. Cells stably expressing Cas9 can then be transduced or electroporated with sgRNA targeting a gene of interest to quickly generate knock-out cell pools or cell lines._x000D_
The Cas9 Lentiviruses are replication incompetent, HIV-based VSV-G pseudo-typed lentiviral particles that are ready to be transduced into almost all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain a Cas9 gene driven by an EF1a promoter, along with a Puromycin selection marker._x000D_
