Gene Activation Vectors

Lentiviral dCas9-VPR vectors provide efficient activation of target genes when used in combination with separate lentiviral gRNA expression vectors. Offered with multiple promoter and selection marker options, these dCas9-VPR vectors are designed for wide experimental flexibility.

Ready to use for wide selection

Promoter

  • EF1
  • SFFV
  • PGK

Selection Makers

  • Blasticidin
  • Puromycin
  • Neomycin

Mechanism

The dCas9-VPR system activates target genes by guiding a Cas9–sgRNA complex to promoter-proximal DNA, where the transcriptional activation enhances expression. Our platform uses two lentiviral components:

  • dCas9-VPR vectors — EF1α or SFFV promoters driving dCas9-VPR and a PGK promoter controlling puromycin (PURO) or blasticidin (BSD) resistance.
  • gRNA expression vectors — Three versions, carrying BSD, PURO, or neomycin (NEO) markers, with sgRNAs expressed under the human U6 promoter.

Gene-specific sgRNAs are cloned into the gRNA vectors, then co-transduction with dCas9-VPR vectors to enable efficient transcriptional activation of endogenous genes.
