Vectors for dCas9

Gene Information

  • Gene Name dCas9
  • Type ORF
  • Subtype Cas protein
  • Description Catalytically inactive Cas9, a variant of Cas9 bearing both D10A and H840A mutations
  • Application Notes Catalytically inactive but can be recruited by gRNAs to target sites; can be fused to other proteins to direct them to specific genomic locations (e.g. dCas9 fused with transcriptional activators or repressors can lead to activation or repression of target genes).
  • References Nat Biotechnol. 32: 347 (2014)
