gRNA for dCas9-VP64 targeting synthetic activation promoter pMLPm under U6 promoter

gRNA for dCas9-VP64 targeting synthetic activation promoter pMLPm under the control of U6 (RNA polymerase III) promoter. gRNA sequence is complementary to 3 different loci in the synthetic promoter pMLPm (1), and gRNA-dCas9-VP64 complex can promote transcription downstream of a synthetic promoter.


Usage and Biology

Guide RNA is a hundred base-long molecule with a unique two dimensional structure which binds dCas9-VP64 and guides it to a dsDNA sequence complementary to 21-22 base pairs on the 5' end of the molecule. Upon binding to promoter, dCas9-VP64-gRNA complex will promote transcription of genes downstream of binding site. gRNA scaffold sequence for Sp dCas9-VP64 was used (2).

Characterization

This part was designed as a control construct for two cancer-specific promoter-based design of CRISPR-mediated transcriptional activation. In the design, gRNA is ribozyme-flanked (to enable synthesis under RNA polymerase II promoter) and is under control of human survivin promoter.
