CRISPR Activation & Repression

abm's CRISPR Activation sgRNA vectors and viruses are highly effective at achieving activation of your target gene. CRISPR Activation (CRISPRa) allows for gene specific up-regulation by using dCas9-VPR. This fusion protein consists of the catalytically dead Cas9 (dCas9) enzyme fused to the tripartite complex VPR (VP64, p65 and Rta). We offer a comprehensive collection of sgRNA-only lentiviral vectors expressing sgRNAs that target the upstream 5' UTR promoter region of any human, mouse or rat gene thereby resulting in transcriptional up-regulation.
