Design Notes

Part:BBa_K1062000 is a gRNA containing a CSY4 cut site and specifically targets the RFP gene.

GRNA-crop.png

The gRNA contains a CSY4 cut site that is essential to create the gRNA. Including in the part is a 20 nucleotide sequence that is targets specifically the RFP gene itself.

Sources

The RFP gRNA was retrieved from Stanley Qi's Lab at UCSF.

References

Currently Stanley Qi's lab is doing research in which hopes to use the CRISPR system in new applications.

In the paper in the link provided, Stanley had shown to control gene expression using the CRISPR system using GFP and RFP as proof of concept. The RFP gRNA being used in our project is the same gRNA Stanley used in this paper.
