U2OS E2F7 KO cell line

E2F7 is a transcription factor that participates in various processes such as cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response by mediating transcriptional repression of target genes involved in G1/S regulation as well as in DNA replication and repair.

Product description: E2F7 is a transcription factor that participates in various processes such as cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response by mediating transcriptional repression of target genes involved in G1/S regulation as well as in DNA replication and repair. E2F7 behaves as a tumour suppressor by inhibiting DNA repair activity of tumour cells upon chemotherapy treatment. Loss of E2F7 by CRISPR knockout confers increased resistance to chemotherapy in BRCA2-deficient cells. CRISPR edited U2OS cells.
Conditional: No
Production details: E2F7 knockout cells were generated using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. A CRISPR guide RNA (gRNA) targeting the first coding exon of E2F7 was designed using Benchling, and cloned into the BbsI site of pX330 (42230, Addgene). U2OS cells were co-transfected with this plasmid, together with a plasmid containing a gRNA to the zebrafish TIA gene (5 -GGTATGTCGGGAACCTCTCC3 ) and a P2A-puromycin resistance cassette flanked by two TIA target sites. Co-transfection results in excision of the cassette and subs…
