dCas9-GFP

dCas9 enzyme is also known as a catalytically dead Cas9 enzyme. Different from traditional CRISPR Cas9 enzymes, dCas9 lacks endonuclease activity. It does not cleave DNA. Instead, with the help of a guide RNA, it specifically binds to the target, usually 20 -30 bp, and blocks transcript elongation by RNA polymerase.

In this part, a GFP is added to the C-terminus of the dCas9, connected using an SGAAAAGGS linker. The GFP is added so that the expression of both proteins could be checked easier.

This sequence can be used by cloning it into a desired vector with a promoter and ribosome binding site.
