CRISPRa-Ready ioMicroglia User Manual
cat no io1102 Early Access | Human iPSC-derived microglia expressing catalytically inactive Cas9 nuclease fused to a transcriptional activation domain for gene activations.
CRISPR activation (CRISPRa)-Ready ioMicroglia constitutively express catalytically inactive Cas9 nuclease (dCas9) fused to a transcriptional activation domain for gene activations, pooled or arrayed CRISPR activation screens. 

The ioMicroglia portfolio are delivered in a cryopreserved format and are programmed to rapidly mature upon revival in the recommended media.

Guide RNA delivery
The user manual includes protocols for guide RNA delivery and flow cytometry readout.

  • Phase 1 - Stabilisation (day 0 to 1)
    The ioMicroglia are revived at the user’s laboratory using the recommended medium supplemented with doxycycline & ROCK inhibitor (24 h) for sustained induction.

  • Phase 2 - Maturation (day 1 to 10)
    The ioMicroglia require full media change switching to a maturation medium with the removal of doxycycline & ROCK inhibitor. 

  • Phase 3 - Maintenance (day 10 onwards)
    Depending on assay requirements, the ioMicroglia can be used over different lengths of time in the maintenance medium.
