This protein was selected because it lacked its endonuclease activity. If the normal viriant was used, it would cut up our reporter plasmid. This was the initial starting protein as the modifications were made later to target specific sequences related to the Groningen 2017 project and to meet all the biobrick characteristics.

This part originates from <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> Cas9 and it contains two amino acid substitutions (D10A & H840A) that make it catalytically dead.

Design Notes

This part originates from Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 and it contains two amino acid substitutions (D10A & H840A) that make it catalytically dead. Also it contains one base substitution (T->A) that remove the illegal EcoRI site. The two amino acid substitutions were already present in the part we started with, so we made it biobrick compatible by removing the EcoRI site and adding the prefix and suffix.

Source

This part originates from the Addgene plasmid pJWV102-PL-dCas9. The dCas9 on this plasmid is a non-codon optimized variant of the S. pyogenes Cas9 gene.
