Product Information

Gene Information

Cat. No.	CC-559
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	GCK
Species	Human
Ensembl ID	ENSG00000106633
NCBIGene ID	2645
Uni Prot ID	P35557
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

GCK

Background

This gene encodes a member of the hexokinase family of proteins. Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. In contrast to other forms of hexokinase, this enzyme is not inhibited by its product glucose-6-phosphate but remains active while glucose is abundant. The use of multiple promoters and alternative splicing of this gene result in distinct protein isoforms that exhibit tissue-specific expression in the pancreas and liver. In the pancreas, this enzyme plays a role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, while in the liver, this enzyme is important in glucose uptake and conversion to glycogen. Mutations in this gene that alter enzyme activity have been associated with multiple types of diabetes and hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
