POLDIP3 CRISPR Activation Plasmid (h) | sc-413603-ACT | 20 µg | $397.00 |
Human POLDIP3 (polymerase delta interacting protein 3), also known as SKAR, is a regulatory factor that links mRNA processing to translation and supports efficient expression of spliced transcripts. It participates in RNA metabolism and ribosome-associated processes, including coupling of exon junction complex–associated signaling to translational output, thereby influencing cell growth and stress-responsive gene expression programs. Through these activities, POLDIP3 impacts pathways controlling proliferation and genome maintenance, making it relevant to studies of dysregulated translation and RNA processing observed in cancer and other proliferative or stress-related disorders. Its functional connections to transcriptional and post-transcriptional control also position POLDIP3 as a useful node for dissecting gene expression regulation in human cells.
POLDIP3 CRISPR Activation Plasmid (h) provides a targeted, non-destructive approach to upregulating endogenous POLDIP3 expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence.
POLDIP3 CRISPR Activation Plasmid (h) is a three-plasmid synergistic activation mediator (SAM) system engineered for highly efficient, site-specific transcriptional upregulation of the POLDIP3 locus in human cell lines. The system is built around a catalytically inactive Cas9 (dCas9) carrying two inactivating mutations (D10A and N863A) that eliminate nuclease activity while preserving DNA binding. This dCas9 is fused to VP64, a potent transcriptional activator, and is co-expressed with a blasticidin resistance gene for selection. The second plasmid encodes the MS2-p65-HSF1 fusion protein, a secondary activator complex that works in concert with dCas9-VP64, alongside a hygromycin resistance gene. The third plasmid encodes a target-specific 20 nt sgRNA fused to two MS2 RNA aptamers that recruit the MS2-p65-HSF1 complex to the activation site, accompanied by a puromycin resistance gene. The three plasmids are delivered at a 1:1:1 mass ratio for balanced expression of all system components.
Once assembled at the target locus, the SAM complex binds within approximately 200 bp upstream of the POLDIP3 transcriptional start site, where VP64, p65, and HSF1 act in concert to recruit transcriptional machinery and drive upregulation of endogenous POLDIP3 expression. Unlike nuclease-active Cas9, dCas9 does not introduce double-strand breaks or modify the genomic sequence, preserving the native POLDIP3 locus and enabling the study of POLDIP3-dependent transcriptional responses at the endogenous locus, making it a valuable tool for functional studies, target gene identification, and the modeling of POLDIP3 pathway restoration in tumor cells with silenced or reduced POLDIP3 expression.
