Gene Information

Cat. No.	CC-688
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	IL4
Species	Human
EnsemblID	ENSG00000113520
NCBIGeneID	3565
Uni ProtID	P05112
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

IL4

Background

The protein encoded by this gene is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by activated T cells. This cytokine is a ligand for interleukin 4 receptor. The interleukin 4 receptor also binds to IL13, which may contribute to many overlapping functions of this cytokine and IL13. STAT6, a signal transducer and activator of transcription, has been shown to play a central role in mediating the immune regulatory signal of this cytokine. This gene, IL3, IL5, IL13, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q, with this gene particularly close to IL13. This gene, IL13 and IL5 are found to be regulated coordinately by several long-range regulatory elements in an over 120 kilobase range on the chromosome. IL4 is considered an important cytokine for tissue repair, counterbalancing the effects of proinflammatory type 1 cytokines, however, it also promotes allergic airway inflammation. Moreover, IL-4, a type 2 cytokine, mediates and regulates a variety of human host responses such as allergic, anti-parasitic, wound healing, and acute inflammation. This cytokine has been reported to promote resolution of neutrophil-mediated acute lung injury. In an allergic response, IL-4 has an essential role in the production of allergen-specific immunoglobin (Ig) E. This pro-inflammatory cytokine has been observed to be increased in COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) patients, but is not necessarily associated with severe COVID-19 pathology. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
