RIP/Rab CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (h) | sc-405836 | 20 µg | $397.00 |
AGFG1 (RIP/Rab) encodes an ArfGAP with FG repeats that couples membrane trafficking to clathrin-mediated endocytosis and endosomal sorting. RIP/Rab interacts with components of the endocytic machinery and contributes to receptor internalization, vesicle budding, and cargo recycling, linking GTPase-regulated membrane dynamics with cytoskeletal organization. Through these roles, AGFG1 influences signaling turnover and protein homeostasis pathways that are frequently altered in proliferative and stress-adaptation states. Dysregulation of endocytosis and trafficking programs involving AGFG1 has been associated with contexts relevant to cancer biology and host–pathogen interactions, making it a useful target for mechanistic studies.
RIP/Rab CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (h) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the AGFG1 gene in human cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the AGFG1 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 AGFG1 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 RIP/Rab protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of AGFG1-deficient cell models for investigation of RIP/Rab signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.
