SHIP-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h): sc-400619-NIC
- Target species: human
- 20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
- SHIP-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h) consists of a pair of plasmids each encoding a D10A mutated Cas9 nuclease and a target-specific 20 nt guide RNA (gRNA) designed to knockout gene expression with greater specificity than its CRISPR/Cas9 KO counterpart
- Paired gRNA sequences are offset by approximately 20 bp to allow for specific Cas9-mediated double nicking of the genomic DNA, which mimics a DSB
- One plasmid in the pair contains a puromycin-resistance gene for selection; the other plasmid in the pair contains a GFP marker to visually confirm transfection
- SHIP-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h) and SHIP-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h2) encode distinct paired gRNA designs targeting INPP5D. One or both designs may be available
- Following transfection, gene knockout efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: SHIP-1 Antibody (P1C1): sc-8425

INPP5D encodes SHIP-1 (Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 1), a hematopoietic-enriched lipid phosphatase that converts PI(3,4,5)P3 to PI(3,4)P2, thereby constraining PI3K–AKT signaling amplitude and duration. Through interactions with phosphorylated immune receptors and adaptor proteins, SHIP-1 modulates Fc receptor and BCR signaling, cytokine responses, chemotaxis, and survival programs in myeloid and lymphoid cells. This regulatory node influences innate and adaptive immune homeostasis and intersects with pathways governing inflammatory signaling and cell fate decisions. Dysregulated INPP5D/SHIP-1 activity has been linked to immune dysfunction and oncogenic signaling contexts in hematologic disease research, making it a useful target for mechanistic studies of PI3K-pathway regulation.
SHIP-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h) consists of a matched pair of plasmids engineered for high-specificity editing of the INPP5D locus in human cell lines. Each plasmid expresses a Cas9 D10A nickase and a distinct sgRNA targeting opposite DNA strands within INPP5D. When directed to adjacent sites on opposite DNA strands, the two nickases generate offset single-strand nicks that together produce a staggered double-strand break, requiring coordinated on-target activity from both guides. The resulting DNA break is resolved by endogenous cellular repair pathways, most commonly through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), leading to insertions or deletions that disrupt INPP5D function. By requiring dual sgRNA engagement at the target locus, the double nicking approach enhances editing specificity and provides a complementary CRISPR strategy for applications where additional control over targeting precision is desired.
To support efficient identification of edited cells, one plasmid encodes GFP for fluorescent visualization of transfected populations, while the companion plasmid carries a puromycin resistance gene for antibiotic selection. Together, these features support efficient enrichment of co-transfected populations and simplify the validation of INPP5D-disrupted clones.
