20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
eIF2α CRISPR/Cas9 Knockout (KO) Plasmid (h) is a pool of plasmids, each encoding Cas9 nuclease and a target-specific 20 nt guide RNA (gRNA) designed for maximum knockout efficiency using sequences derived from the GeCKO v2 library
gRNA sequences direct Cas9 to induce site-specific double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the eIF2α genomic locus, resulting in gene knockout through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)
The puromycin resistance and RFP genes are flanked by LoxP sites, enabling removal of selection markers via Cre recombinase (Cre Vector: sc-418923) after establishing stable knockout cell lines
Following transfection, gene knockout efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: eIF2α Antibody (D-3): sc-133132
