Depositor Comments

The gRNA was designed to target a Genbank reference sequence which has since been removed from the database. Note that this plasmid does NOT contain Cas9. It should be used in conjunction with lentiCas9-Blast (Addgene #52962) or otherwise with cell lines already expressing Cas9.
