NLS

Because of the high molecular weight of Cas9 nuclease which cannot freely shuttle through the nuclear pores, we have to add a nuclear localization sequence(NLS) to guide it through the nucleus.

Usage and Biology

NLS was connected to the 3' end of the yeGFP(BBa_K3402000) gene to construct the plasmid, then we transferred the plasmid to observe the distribution of green fluorescence. If the fluorescent region was concentrated in the nucleus, this sequence could be used for the subsequent establishment of the CRISPR/Cas9 system.
