Gene

DBH

ENSG00000123454
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is an oxidoreductase belonging to the copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase family. The encoded protein, expressed in neuroscretory vesicles and chromaffin granules of the adrenal medulla, catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine, which functions as both a hormone and as the main neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system. The enzyme encoded by this gene exists exists in both soluble and membrane-bound forms, depending on the absence or presence, respectively, of a signal peptide. Mutations in this gene cause dopamine beta-hydroxylate deficiency in human patients, characterized by deficits in autonomic and cardiovascular function, including hypotension and ptosis. Polymorphisms in this gene may play a role in a variety of psychiatric disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Gene Knockout Kits Provide Superior Editing Efficiency in iPSC, Immortalized, and Primary Cells and Consistent Protein Depletion Using the XDel Design

Figure 1. A) On-target editing efficiency of XDel multiple guide design (MGKO) (pink bars) vs their 3 respective single-guide RNAs (blue bars) across 7 endogenous target loci transfected in two immortalized (IMM) and two iPSC cell lines. Each transfection was performed in triplicate and data were analyzed via NGS by EditCo’s proprietary software analysis. B) Western blot analyses for all 5 knockout target genes indicate a complete depletion of proteins across the 3 specified time points (days 7, 14, and 21) relative to the negative controls. Knockout cell pools for the target genes were generated by nucleofecting U2OS cells with multi-guide sgRNA and Cas9 (as RNPs). A negative control pool was also transfected for each target using non-targeting sgRNA.
