Design Notes

CasRx Part Design

Three inserts were ordered from the supplier for the CasRx constructs: CasRx1: This insert contains the first half of the effector protein with a Kozak sequence for efficient mammalian expression. CasRx2: This insert includes the second half of the effector protein, fused with an HA tag at the C-terminal end. CasRx3: The third insert incorporates an IRES sequence and an mCherry reporter, also tagged with a nuclear localization signal (NLS) at the C-terminal end.

The inserts were designed to have overlapping sequences with each other as well as with the borders of the vector after the removal of the luciferase gene. The vector pNFAT-RE-Luc10, provided by professor Meško and her team, contains a minimal promoter that exhibits high specificity for a synthetic NFAT transcription factor and the luciferase gene downstream. Two restriction enzymes, PspXI (upstream) and FseI (downstream), were identified at the gene borders. Additionally, it was ensured that after cleavage, the vector would have overlapping sequences with CasRx1 and CasRx3 inserts.
