JNK2 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (bovine): sc-437284
- Target species: bovine
- 20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
- JNK2 CRISPR/Cas9 Knockout (KO) Plasmid (bovine) 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 JNK2 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: JNK2 Antibody (A-7): sc-271133

Overview
JNK2 (MAPK9) is a c-Jun N-terminal kinase isoform within the stress-activated MAPK cascade that transduces signals from inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress, and growth factor pathways. Through phosphorylation of substrates such as c-JUN and other AP-1 components, JNK2 modulates transcriptional programs controlling apoptosis, cell-cycle regulation, differentiation, and innate immune responses. JNK2 activity intersects with TNF, TLR, and NF-κB signaling and contributes to context-dependent regulation of mitochondrial and ER stress responses. Dysregulated JNK signaling has been linked to inflammatory and metabolic dysfunction, neurodegeneration, and tumor-associated phenotypes, supporting its use in mechanistic studies across disease-relevant models, including bovine systems.
JNK2 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (bovine) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the gene in bovine cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the 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 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 JNK2 protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of -deficient cell models for investigation of JNK2 signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.

Design Variants
CRISPRs +/- HDRs
- gRNAs encoded by JNK2 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (bovine) and JNK2 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (bovine2) target distinct sites within the locus. One or both targeting designs may be available. See Related Products for availability.
- HDR donor constructs encoded by JNK2 HDR Plasmid (bovine) and JNK2 HDR Plasmid (bovine2) contain a puromycin resistance cassette and an RFP reporter flanked by homology arms to support homology-directed repair at defined target sites corresponding to the CRISPR/Cas9 KO designs. HDR donor availability may vary. See Related Products for availability.
