S-100A16 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m): sc-426783
- Target species: mouse
- 20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
- S-100A16 CRISPR/Cas9 Knockout (KO) Plasmid (m) is a pool of plasmids, each encoding Cas9 nuclease and a target-specific 20 nt guide RNA (gRNA) designed for maximum knockout efficiency using sequences derived from the GeCKO v2 library
- gRNA sequences direct Cas9 to induce site-specific double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the S-100A16 genomic locus, resulting in gene knockout through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)
- The puromycin resistance and RFP genes are flanked by LoxP sites, enabling removal of selection markers via Cre recombinase (Cre Vector: sc-418923) after establishing stable knockout cell lines
- Following transfection, gene knockout efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: S-100A16 Antibody (G-7): sc-390151

Overview
Mouse S100a16 encodes S-100A16, a small EF-hand calcium-binding protein in the S100 family that modulates calcium-dependent signaling and protein–protein interactions. S-100A16 is linked to regulation of cytoskeletal organization, cell motility, and cellular stress responses, with reported roles in differentiation programs and remodeling of the actin network. Through interactions with signaling nodes that influence MAPK- and Rho GTPase–associated processes, S-100A16 can affect adhesion dynamics and transcriptional outputs. Dysregulated S100A16 expression has been associated with pathological tissue remodeling and oncogenic phenotypes in multiple contexts, making it a useful target for mechanistic studies of proliferation, migration, and inflammation-associated pathways.
S-100A16 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the S100a16 gene in mouse cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the S100a16 together with the Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 nuclease. The plasmids also encode GFP, allowing fluorescent identification and enrichment of successfully transfected cells by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.
The multi-guide design increases the likelihood of generating insertions or deletions (indels) that disrupt the S100a16 open reading frame following Cas9-mediated double-strand break formation. DNA breaks introduced by the CRISPR/Cas9 system are repaired through endogenous non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathways, frequently resulting in frameshift mutations that abolish S-100A16 protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of S100a16-deficient cell models for investigation of S-100A16 signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.

Design Variants
CRISPRs +/- HDRs
- gRNAs encoded by S-100A16 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) and S-100A16 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m2) target distinct sites within the S100a16 locus. One or both targeting designs may be available. See Related Products for availability.
- HDR donor constructs encoded by S-100A16 HDR Plasmid (m) and S-100A16 HDR Plasmid (m2) contain a puromycin resistance cassette and an RFP reporter flanked by S100a16 homology arms to support homology-directed repair at defined S100a16 target sites corresponding to the CRISPR/Cas9 KO designs. HDR donor availability may vary. See Related Products for availability.
