Gene Information

Cat. No.	CC-298
Description	A complete kit for efficient gene knockout in mammalian cells, combining chemically synthesized sgRNAs with Cas9 RNPs to induce targeted DNA cleavage and generate frameshift mutations or deletions. All essential reagents for transfection and knockout validation are included for rapid, high-efficiency gene disruption.
Gene Abbr	CDK8
Species	Human
EnsemblID	ENSG00000132964
NCBIGeneID	1024
Uni ProtID	P49336
Features	All-in-One workflow from gene editing to knockout validation for users with no prior experience. Pre-validated sgRNAs and primers for rapid setup. Streamlined experiment handling. CRISPR RNP method ensures precise and efficient gene knockout.
Applications	This kit enables in vitro gene knockout in human-derived cells using chemically synthesized sgRNAs and Cas9-gRNA RNP complexes. Transfected RNPs cleave early exons of the target gene, inducing deletions or frameshift mutations for efficient and rapid knockout.
Reactions	5–10 reactions per target gene
Kit Components	2–3 chemically synthesized sgRNAs (200pmol each) 3 PCR/Sequencing primers (500pmol each) LM cell lysate (500µL) Cas9 protein (12µg) LM RNP transfection reagent (50µL)
Storage	Store at -80°C for up to 1 year or at -20°C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Target Gene

CDK8

Background

This gene encodes a member of the cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) family. CDK family members are known to be important regulators of cell cycle progression. This kinase and its regulatory subunit, cyclin C, are components of the Mediator transcriptional regulatory complex, involved in both transcriptional activation and repression by phosphorylation of the carboxy-terminal domain of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II. This kinase regulates transcription by targeting the cyclin-dependent kinase 7 subunits of the general transcription initiation factor IIH, thus providing a link between the Mediator complex and the basal transcription machinery. Multiple pseudogenes of this gene have been identified. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
