Datasheets
  • Target species: mouse
  • 20 µg of transfection-ready, purified plasmid DNA; Suitable for up to 20 transfections
  • Ets-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (m) 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
  • Ets-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (m) and Ets-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (m2) encode distinct paired gRNA designs targeting Ets1. One or both designs may be available
  • Following transfection, gene knockout efficiency can be assayed by WB, IF or IHC using antibody: Ets-1 Antibody (C-4): sc-55581

    Ets1 encodes the ETS family transcription factor Ets-1, a DNA-binding regulator that integrates signaling cues to control gene programs involved in cell differentiation, proliferation, and migration. In mouse cells, Ets-1 is particularly linked to immune cell development and activation, shaping transcriptional outputs downstream of pathways such as MAPK/ERK and cytokine-driven signaling. Ets-1 modulates expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix remodeling, adhesion, and inflammatory mediators, connecting it to tissue remodeling processes. Dysregulated ETS1 activity has been associated with altered immune responses and oncogenic transcriptional networks in multiple experimental contexts, making it a useful node for mechanistic studies of gene regulation.

    Ets-1 Double Nickase Plasmid (m) consists of a matched pair of plasmids engineered for high-specificity editing of the Ets1 locus in mouse cell lines. Each plasmid expresses a Cas9 D10A nickase and a distinct sgRNA targeting opposite DNA strands within Ets1. 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 Ets1 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 Ets1-disrupted clones.
