SDPSCI_ED

Catalog No. S05963
Click to view available options
Class Size:
10 Lab Groups

In this 'Code Breakers' experiment, students explore cutting-edge genetic engineering using CRISPR-Cas9 to knock out the purple chromogenic genes in classroom safe bacteria. Additionally, students test the specificity of CRISPR-Cas9 by using a non-specific CRISPR gRNA template.

  • Explore genetic engineering, CRISPR, and the central dogma of molecular biology in this comprehensive experiment.
  • Transform classroom- safeE. coli with CRISPR RNA templates to test the targeting specificity of the technology.
  • Identify successful gene knockout based on the color of the cells.
  • Group Size: For 10 Lab Groups
  • Time Required: Set Up - 50 minutes / Incubation - overnight / Transformation - 90 minutes
  • Kit Includes: Instructions, LyphoCells™E.coli Purple, ampicillin, IPTG, Chloramphenicol, ReadyPour™ SOC-agar, pCas9-PurpleGuide (plasmid), pCas9-ControlGuide (plasmid), CaCl2, competent cell solution, SOC liquid medium (broth), SOC additive (for ReadyPour ONLY), petri plates (small), petri plates (large), plastic microtipped transfer pipets, wrapped 10 ml pipet (sterile), inoculating loops (sterile), microcentrifuge tubes, 50mL conical tubes
