p22HBP CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) | sc-420826 | 20 µg | $397.00 |
Mouse Hebp1 encodes p22HBP, a heme-binding protein implicated in intracellular heme trafficking and heme-dependent redox regulation. p22HBP has been linked to mitochondrial-associated processes, oxidative stress responses, and modulation of apoptosis, consistent with roles in maintaining cellular homeostasis under metabolic stress. Through interactions with heme and heme-derived signaling, Hebp1 may influence pathways tied to reactive oxygen species balance, mitochondrial function, and protein quality control. Dysregulation of heme handling and oxidative injury are relevant to neurodegeneration and inflammatory tissue damage, making Hebp1 a useful target for mechanistic studies in these contexts.
p22HBP CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the Hebp1 gene in mouse cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the Hebp1 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 Hebp1 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 p22HBP protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of Hebp1-deficient cell models for investigation of p22HBP signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.
