beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h): sc-401093-NIC
- Target species: human
- 20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
- beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 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
- beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h) and beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h2) encode distinct paired gRNA designs targeting ATP1B1. One or both designs may be available
- Following transfection, gene knockout efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 Antibody (E-4): sc-376406

ATP1B1 encodes the beta 1 subunit of the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase, a plasma membrane P-type ATPase complex that maintains sodium and potassium gradients required for membrane potential, osmotic balance, and secondary active transport. By supporting electrochemical homeostasis, ATP1B1 influences epithelial polarity, cell volume regulation, and excitability-linked signaling, and can modulate adhesion-related processes through effects on membrane organization. Altered Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase subunit expression or stoichiometry has been associated with dysregulated ion transport in kidney and cardiovascular physiology and has been explored in the context of tumor cell metabolism and stress responses. As a result, ATP1B1 is frequently studied in pathways connecting ion homeostasis to proliferation, barrier function, and signal transduction.
beta 1 Sodium Potassium ATPase/ATP1B1 Double Nickase Plasmid (h) consists of a matched pair of plasmids engineered for high-specificity editing of the ATP1B1 locus in human cell lines. Each plasmid expresses a Cas9 D10A nickase and a distinct sgRNA targeting opposite DNA strands within ATP1B1. 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 ATP1B1 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 ATP1B1-disrupted clones.
