Human CRISPR Activation Library (SAM 2-plasmid system)
(Pooled Library #1000000078)
-
Purpose
Version 2 of the human CRISPR/Cas9 SAM (Synergistic Activation Mediator) pooled library. This library uses an engineered protein complex for the transcriptional activation of endogenous genes.
For SAM gain-of-function screening, this gRNA library has to be combined with one additional SAM construct, MS2-P65-HSF1 (Addgene plasmid #89308), which is provided with the library.
Note: Libraries ordered prior to 4/3/2017 were shipped with Addgene plasmid #61426 rather than #89308

Library Shipping
Each library is delivered in microcentrifuge tubes on blue ice. A tube's contents will not necessarily be frozen. For best results, minimize freeze/thaw cycles.

Depositor Comments
The SAM library consists of three unique sgRNAs targeting the RefSeq coding isoforms in the proximal promoter (> 90% of sgRNAs are targeted to the first 200 bp upstream of the transcription start site of their target).
These pooled libraries were created by your colleagues. Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator, cite the article in which the plasmids were described, and include Addgene in the Materials and Methods of your future publications.
