How to perform a CRISPR Knockout Experiment

Due to CRISPR's unparalleled ease-of-use and affordability, gene knockout experiments are now more feasible than ever before!

In this video, we will show you how we used the CRISPR Cas9 system to knockout the LIF gene in a colon carcinoma cell line. This is accomplished by the delivery of a Cas9 and sgRNA lentivector into the cell line followed by drug selection and monoclonal isolation. More importantly, we demonstrate how to characterize and verify your CRISPR Knockout using the PCR-based Surveyor Assay, Sanger Sequencing, and Next Generation Sequencing. This complete process of validation ensures that your final CRISPR Knockout cell line is 100% successful.

At the end of the video, we will introduce you to abm’s entire suite of CRISPR Knockout services – designed to help you jumpstart your Knockout experiments!
