Recombinant full-length SpCas9 (H840A)-NLS from S. pyogenes expressed in E. coli using a C-terminal His tag. Contains a nuclear localization signal for optimal activity. Enzyme sold with 1 mL of Cas9 reaction buffer, 10x (CS09-09).
Cas9 is a multidomain nuclease from the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes characteristic of type II CRISPR-Cas systems (1). Guided by a single-guide RNA (sgRNA), Cas9 targets specific genomic loci and generates a blunt-ended double-strand break (2). SpCas9 (H840A)-NLS is a catalytic mutant of Cas9 containing a nuclear localization signal for optimal activity (3). Unlike the wild-type Cas9, SpCas9 (H840A)-NLS generates a single-strand DNA break on the non-targeting strand. SpCas9 (H840A)-NLS can be used for various genome editing applications.
