Lenti‐Cas9‐2A‐Blast
(Plasmid #73310)

• Purpose: Lentiviral vector expressing human codon-optimized S. pyogenes FLAG-tagged Cas9 and blasticidin resistance from EFS promoter
• Depositing Lab: Jason Moffat
• Publication: Hart et al Cell. 2015 Dec 3;163(6):1515-26. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2015.11.015. Epub 2015 Nov 25.

Backbone

• Vector backbone: lenti CRISPR pXPR_001
• Backbone manufacturer: Feng Zhang
• Backbone size w/o insert (bp): 6990
• Total vector size (bp): 11214
• Modifications to backbone: Cas9-2A‐Blasticidin vector was modified from lentiCRISPR pXPR_001 (Addgene 49535) by removing the gRNA expressing sequence through NdeI, EcoRI digest and blunt end ligation using large Klenow fragments (NEB) to ligate sticky ends. 2A-­puro was replaced with an amplified 2A-blasticidin sequence with NheI and MluI sites
• Vector type: Mammalian Expression, Lentiviral, CRISPR
• Selectable markers: Blasticidin

Growth in Bacteria

• Bacterial Resistance(s): Ampicillin, 100 μg/mL
