Background
dCas9-VP64 refers to the dCas9 protein (#PDB: 5Y36_A) fused with the VP64 transcription activation domain, which is used in CRISPR-based gene activation. Comprising a deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) protein and VP64 transcriptional activator, it precisely targets gene promoters, enhancing gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. dCas9-VP64 offers a versatile tool for studying gene function, disease mechanisms, and potential therapeutic interventions.
dCas9 protein is an endonuclease-inactive version of Cas9 (CRISPR associated protein 9). dCas9 lacks endonuclease activity so that it binds but does not cleave cognate DNA, which can be used to localize transcriptional activators or repressors to specific DNA sequences in order to control transcription.Synonyms
