EnGen Lba Cas12a (Cpf1) is a programmable DNA endonuclease guided by a single guide RNA (gRNA). Targeting requires a gRNA complementary to the target site as well as a 5' TTTV protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) on the DNA strand opposite the target sequence. Cleavage by EnGen Lba Cas12a (Cpf1) occurs ~17 bases 3' of the PAM and leaves 5' overhanging ends.

  • T-rich TTTV PAM sequence opens up additional genomic regions for targeting
  • Shorter, 40-44 base guide RNA
  • Two nuclear localization signals for improved transport to the nucleus
  • 5’ overhanging termini on cleavage products
  • Active from 16 to 48°C
  • Maintains activity at lower temperatures than the Acidaminococcus orthologs, permitting editing in ectothermic organisms such as zebra fish and xenopus
  • High concentration liquid format can be used for microinjection, electroporation and lipofection.

EnGen® Lba Cas12a from Lachnospiraceae bacterium ND2006 is a site-specific DNA endonuclease guided by a single 41-44 nucleotide guide RNA (gRNA) (1). Targeting requires a gRNA complementary to the target site as well as a 5’ TTTV protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) on the DNA strand opposite the target sequence. Cleavage by EnGen Lba Cas12a occurs ~18 bases 3′ of the PAM and leaves 5′ overhanging ends. EnGen Lba Cas12a has Simian virus 40 (SV40) T antigen nuclear localization sequences (NLS) at both the N and C-termini of the protein.

Cas12a Temperature

Purified Lba or Asp Cas12a proteins were used to form RNP complexes with their canonical guide RNAs. The DNA target is a single a PCR product 5´-end labeled with FAM. Lba or Asp Cas12a RNPs were incubated with target DNA at the temperatures indicated at a ratio of 10:1 RNP to DNA for 10 minutes. Cleavage products were resolved by capillary electrophoresis and quantitated by integration of signal corresponding to intact and cleaved fragments. Data are shown as the mean +/- SD of duplicate experiments.
