CD35 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (h) | sc-401210 | 20 µg | $397.00 |
CR1 encodes CD35, a membrane complement receptor that binds C3b/C4b opsonins and promotes immune complex clearance while regulating complement activation on cell surfaces. CD35 participates in innate immune recognition and links complement to adaptive responses by modulating antigen handling and B cell signaling, and it is expressed on erythrocytes, leukocytes, and follicular dendritic cells. Through control of complement cascade amplification and phagocytic uptake, CR1 influences inflammatory homeostasis and susceptibility to complement-mediated tissue injury. Genetic variation and altered CR1/CD35 expression have been associated with immune dysregulation and inflammatory disorders, and have also been studied in contexts such as neuroinflammation and infectious disease host–pathogen interactions.
CD35 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (h) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the CR1 gene in human cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the CR1 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 CR1 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 CD35 protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of CR1-deficient cell models for investigation of CD35 signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.
