Biochem/physiol Actions:
The zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) provided in this kit targets the gene encoding urokinase-type plasminogen activator. It is a serine protease with extremely limited substrate specificity, cleaving the sequence Cys-Pro-Gly-Arg560-Val561-Val-Gly-Gly-Cys in plasminogen to form plasmin. It is a potent marker of invasion and metastasis in a variety of human cancers associated with breast, stomach, colon, bladder, ovary, brain and endometrium.
General description: CompoZr Knockout ZFNs create targeted double strand breaks at a gene specific target locus. Through the cellular process of Non-Homologous End Joining, this double strand break can result in modification of the DNA sequence and therefore create a functional knockout of the targeted gene. To provide the best chance of creating a functional gene knockout, CompoZr Knockout ZFNs are targeted to the first 2/3 of the coding region for the gene of interest.

Physical form: CompoZr Knockout ZFNs are provided as 10 aliquots of mRNA encoding for the ZFNs along with plasmid DNA for both ZFN pairs. Also included in the kit are custom-designed primers, that allow for determination of the rate of mutation and for screening of individual clones that have the desired mutational event, and positive control DNA that has been modified using the CompoZr Knockout ZFN.
RIDADR: NONH for all modes of transport
Storage Temp.:−70°C
UNSPSC: 12352200
