FBXO29 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) | sc-433093 | 20 µg | $397.00 |
Fbxw8 encodes the F-box protein FBXO29, a substrate-recognition component of SKP1–CUL1–F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes that directs specific proteins for ubiquitination and proteasomal turnover. Through regulated degradation of signaling and cell-cycle regulators, FBXO29 contributes to control of protein homeostasis, proliferation, and differentiation programs. As part of ubiquitin-dependent quality control, SCF-type ligases interface with pathways that shape growth factor signaling and stress responses, making Fbxw8 perturbation relevant for studying mechanisms of dysregulated proteostasis observed in cancer and other proliferative or developmental disorders. Mouse Fbxw8 models are therefore useful for defining ubiquitin-ligase substrate networks and their impact on cellular phenotypes.
FBXO29 CRISPR/Cas9 KO Plasmid (m) is a pool of plasmids designed for targeted disruption of the Fbxw8 gene in mouse cell lines. Each plasmid co-expresses a unique single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting a distinct site within the Fbxw8 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 Fbxw8 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 FBXO29 protein expression.
This CRISPR knockout system enables efficient generation of Fbxw8-deficient cell models for investigation of FBXO29 signaling, functional genomics studies, cancer biology research, and evaluation of therapeutic responses in human cell lines.
