Plasmids from Article

ID Plasmid Purpose
68708Cas9/pTREX-nExpresses the fusion gene CAS9-HA-2xNLS-GFP in the pTREX-n backbone. This vector is used for cloning a specific sgRNA by BamHI, to be co-expressed with Cas9 for genome editing in Trypanosoma cruzi.
68709tdTomato/pTREX-bExpresses tdTomato in pTREX-b vector which confers resistance to blasticidin. This vector is used for cloning a specific sgRNA by BamHI, to transfect Cas9-expressing Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigotes.
68710pUC_sgRNAContains the sgRNA backbone sequence (tracrRNA, 82 bp) and is used as DNA template to amplify a specific sgRNA using a forward primer with the protospacer sequence for gene targeting.
