CRISPR-U™ technology (CRISPR based), developed by Ubigene, is more efficient than general
CRISPR/Cas9 technology in double-strand breaking and homologous recombination. With CRISPR-U™, Ubigene has
successfully edited over 3000 genes on more than 200 types of cell lines.
Objective
To create a Mouse Ar Knockout
model in cell line by CRISPR-U™-mediated genome engineering.

Summary
This gene encodes a nuclear hormone receptor containing zinc finger and DNA-binding domains. The encoded protein is a key regulator of signalling by androgens, a class of steroid hormones involved in male reproductive development. The protein responds to hormone signalling by translocating to the nucleus, forming dimers, and binding to androgen response elements (AREs) in the promoters of target genes, which are subsequently transcriptionally activated. Activity of this protein is negatively regulated by nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1 (Nr0b1, also known as Dax1). Mutations in this gene result in feminized genitals and infertility in male animals. Loss of function in female animals also causes problems in reproductive development and function.
