L-Selectin/CD62L/SELL CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) | sc-422872 | 20 µg | $397.00 |
Sell encodes L-selectin (CD62L), a leukocyte adhesion receptor that mediates lymphocyte homing and leukocyte rolling on high endothelial venules through binding to peripheral node addressins and other sulfated, sialylated glycan ligands. In mouse immune cells, CD62L shedding and trafficking coordinate transitions between naïve, central memory, and activated phenotypes, linking adhesion dynamics to chemokine-driven migration and immune surveillance. SELL signaling and ectodomain cleavage intersect with inflammatory cascades and endothelial activation, shaping leukocyte recruitment during tissue injury and infection. Altered L-selectin-dependent trafficking is commonly studied in models of autoimmunity, chronic inflammation, and tumor immunology where cell localization and priming influence disease phenotypes.
L-Selectin/CD62L/SELL CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the Sell gene in mouse cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the Sell 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 Sell 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 L-Selectin/CD62L/SELL protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of Sell-deficient cell models for investigation of L-Selectin/CD62L/SELL signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.
