KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h): sc-414317-LAC
- Target species: human
- 200 µl of transduction-ready, high-titer CRISPR/dCas9 Lentiviral Activation Particles
- KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) is a synergistic activation mediator (SAM) transcription activation system designed to specifically and efficiently upregulate gene expression via lentiviral transduction of cells
- KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) contain the following SAM Activation elements: a deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) nuclease (D10A and N863A) fused to the transactivation domain VP64, an MS2-p65-HSF1 fusion protein and a target-specific 20 nt guide RNA. They also contain the blasticidin, hygromycin and puromycin resistance genes
- Upon transduction, the SAM complex binds to a site-specific region approximately 200-250 nt upstream of the transcriptional start site and provides robust recruitment of transcription factors for highly efficient gene activation
- gRNAs encoded by KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Plasmid (h) and KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Plasmid (h2) target distinct regulatory regions of the KLF17 promoter. One or both designs may be available
- Following transfection, gene activation efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: KLF17 Antibody (B-6): sc-398132

KLF17 (Krüppel-like factor 17) encodes a zinc-finger transcription factor that regulates gene expression programs linked to epithelial differentiation, cell identity, and transcriptional control of proliferation and motility-associated networks. As a DNA-binding regulator, KLF17 interfaces with broader transcriptional and chromatin-modulating pathways that shape lineage-specific expression states and stress-responsive signaling. Altered KLF17 activity has been associated with dysregulated epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity and changes in invasion-related transcriptional signatures, making it relevant to studies of tumor progression and metastatic potential. In human model systems, KLF17 is commonly investigated for its effects on cell state transitions, migration, and context-dependent regulation of downstream targets.
KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) address this need by packaging the complete synergistic activation mediator (SAM) transcriptional activation system into transduction-ready, high-titer lentiviral particles, enabling efficient KLF17 upregulation across a broader range of human cell types.
KLF17 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) deliver all functional components of the synergistic activation mediator (SAM) system via lentiviral transduction. The system comprises three particle preparations co-transduced into target cells: one encoding catalytically inactive dCas9 (D10A and N863A mutations) fused to the VP64 transactivation domain with a blasticidin resistance gene; one encoding the MS2-p65-HSF1 fusion protein with a hygromycin resistance gene; and one encoding a target-specific 20 nt sgRNA fused to two MS2 RNA aptamers with a puromycin resistance gene. Following lentiviral transduction and genomic integration of the expression cassettes, the SAM components are stably expressed and assemble at the target locus within the proximal promoter region upstream of the KLF17 transcriptional start site, where VP64, p65, and HSF1 act cooperatively to recruit endogenous transcriptional machinery and drive sustained upregulation of endogenous KLF17 expression. The use of nuclease-inactive dCas9 avoids the introduction of double-strand DNA breaks and preserves the native KLF17 genomic locus and regulatory architecture.
The lentiviral format offers several practical advantages: stable genomic integration supports heritable activation across cell divisions; high-titer particle preparations eliminate the need for in-house viral production; and compatibility with primary, non-dividing, and transfection-resistant cell types expands experimental accessibility. Successful transduction can be confirmed and enriched through triple antibiotic selection using puromycin, hygromycin, and blasticidin.
