Depositor Comments

This LentiCRISPRv2 variant was produced by restriction digest and multi-fragment InFusion (Clontech) assembly. It has been validated for cutting efficiency following transduction and FACS-sorting for mCherry. Suitable for single- and multi-colour guided CRISPR editing in stem cells and cell lines.

sgRNA of choice can be cloned in using BsmBI digest. Follow original LentiCRISPRv2 cloning protocol.
