CRISPR/Cas9 tools

Guid-it product line for complete workflow

CRISPR/Cas9 allows site-specific genomic targeting. The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been harnessed to create a simple, RNA-programmable method to mediate genome editing in mammalian cells, and can be used to generate gene knockouts (via insertion/deletion) or knockins (via HDR). Takara Bio offers solution for all steps of the workflow from sgRNA synhesis and delivery options up to mutation detection.

1. IN VITRO TRANSCRIPTION

Guide-it sgRNA In Vitro Transcription Kit

  • All reagents necessary for sgRNA synthesis

Guide-it™ IVT RNA Clean-Up Kit

  • Kit for purification of sgRNA after in vitro transcription

Guide-it™ Complete sgRNA Screening System

  • Complete solution for sgRNA production, cleanup and screening
  • PCR enzyme for genomic target amplification and Cas9 included in the kit

Guide-it™ sgRNA Screening Kit

  • Kit for selecting the best guide sequences
  • Cas9 included

Guide-it Long ssDNA Production System

  • ssDNA donor templates production (500–5,000 nt)
  • Gene knockin applications
  • Simple and fast protocol

2. DELIVERY SYSTEMS

Gesicle delivery products

  • Kits for production of gesicles with target-specific CRISPR/Cas9
  • Gesicles: cell-derived nanovesicles used for cargo delivery into cells
  • Have to be used together with pGuide-it-sgRNA1 Vector 

Viral delivery systems

  • Ideal for genome editing in hard-to-transfect mammalian cells
  • AAV delivery of Cas9 precludes genomic integration and persistent expression of Cas9, reducing off-target effects
  • Lenti-X Tet-On 3G CRISPR/Cas9 System incorporates the Tet-On 3G transactivator protein, which enables users to induce Cas9 expression via the addition of doxycycline
  • Lenti-X CRISPR/Cas9 System involves the constitutive expression of Cas9 in target cells

Xfect™ RNA Transfection Reagent

  • Suitable to work with messenger RNA (mRNA), single guide RNA (sgRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and siRNA
  • Very low cytotoxicity

3. DETECTION AND SCREENING KITS

Guide-it Mutation Detection Kit

  • Complete kit for identification of insertions and deletions in mammalian cells
  • Amplification directly from the cells

Guide-it Cas9 Antibodies

  • Polyclonal antibody for recombinant Cas9 recognition
  • Can detect less than 1 ng of Cas9

Guide-it Indel Identification Kit

  • Kit for identification of indels caused by CRISPR/Cas9 and other gene editing methods
  • Very fast protocols work directly from cells

Guide-it SNP Screening Kit

  • No need for sequencing
  • Whole protocol done in 4 hours
  • Can detect any nucleotide substitution

Guide-it Knockin Screening Kit

  • Detection of single-nucleotide substitutions to longer insertions
