High-yield genome engineering in primary cells using a hybrid ssDNA repair template and small-molecule cocktails [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Enhancing site-specific transgene insertion efficiency by homology-directed repair (HDR) using high concentrations of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) with Cas9 target sequences (CTSs) can be toxic to primary cells. Here, we develop single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) HDR templates (HDRTs) incorporating CTSs with reduced toxicity that boost knock-in efficiency and yield by an average of 2–3-fold relative to dsDNA CTSs. Using small-molecule combinations that enhance HDR, we could further increase knock-in efficiencies by an additional 2–3-fold on average. Our method works across a variety of target loci, knock-in constructs, and primary human cell types, reaching HDR efficiencies of >80–90%. We demonstrate application of this approach for both pathogenic gene variant modeling and gene-replacement strategies for IL2RA and CTLA4 mutations associated with Mendelian disorders. Finally, we develop a good manufacturing practice (GMP)-compatible process for non-viral chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell manufacturing, with knock-in efficiencies (46–62%) and yields (>1.5×109 modified cells) exceeding those of conventional approaches.

Precision genome editing using synthesis-dependent repair of Cas9-induced DNA breaks

Project description:The RNA-guided DNA endonuclease Cas9 has emerged as a powerful new tool for genome engineering. Cas9 creates targeted double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the genome. Knock-in of specific mutations (precision genome editing) requires homology-directed repair (HDR) of the DSB by synthetic donor DNAs containing the desired edits, but HDR has been reported to be variably efficient. Here, we report that linear DNAs (single and double-stranded) engage in a high-efficiency HDR mechanism that requires only ~35 nucleotides of homology with the targeted locus to introduce edits ranging from 1 to 1000 nucleotides. We demonstrate the utility of linear donors by introducing fluorescent protein tags in human cells and mouse embryos using PCR fragments. We find that repair is local, polarity-sensitive, and prone to template switching, characteristics that are consistent with gene conversion by synthesis-dependent strand-annealing (SDSA). Our findings enable rational design of synthetic donor DNAs for efficient genome editing.

Functional screening in human HSPCs identifies optimized protein-based enhancers of Homology Directed Repair [Amplicon]

Project description:Homology Directed Repair (HDR) enables precise genome editing and holds great promise in the gene therapy field. However, the implementation of HDR-based therapies is hindered by limited efficiency in comparison to methods that exploit alternative DNA repair routes, such as Non-Homologous End Joining (NHEJ). In this study, we demonstrate the development of a functional, pooled screening platform utilizing an HDR-based readout to identify protein-based reagents that improve HDR outcomes in human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), a clinically relevant cell type for gene therapy. We leveraged this screening platform to explore sequence diversity at the binding interface of the NHEJ inhibitor i53 and its target, 53BP1, and we identified optimized i53 variants that enable new intermolecular bonds and robustly increase HDR. These variants specifically reduce insertion-deletion outcomes and also synergize with a DNAPK inhibitor to increase HDR rates. When applied at manufacturing scale, the incorporation of improved variants results in a significant increase in cells with at least one repaired allele and improved HDR in long-term HSPCs subpopulations, while not increasing off-target editing or gross chromosomal rearrangements. We anticipate the pooled screening platform will enable discovery of future gene editing reagents that improve HDR outcomes, such as the i53 variants reported here.

The REL domain of the NFATc2 protein binding to four types of DNA using protein binding microarrays

Project description:NFATc2 is a sequence specific DNA binding protein in the Rel family that binds a 5-mer motif CGGAA better when both cytosines in the CG dinucleotide are methylated. Using protein binding microarrays (PBMs) we examined the DNA binding of NFATc2 to three additional types of DNA: (1) single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), (2) double stranded DNA (dsDNA) with 5-methylcytosine (5mC, M) in one strand and cytosine in the second strand (dsDNA(5mC|C)) and (3) DNA with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC, H) in one strand and cytosine in the second strand (dsDNA(5hmC|C)). NFATc2 binding to ssDNA is strongest for the 7-mer ATTTCCA. While NFAT can bind ssDNA, the average binding to the 40,000 DNA features of the PBM was twice as high for ssDNA compared to dsDNA, with maximal binding observed to dsDNA, suggesting that NFAT binding to dsDNA is more specific. dsDNA sequences containing the 5-mer MGGAA with 5mC in one DNA strand are better bound than CGGAA, with methylation of a single cytosine being sufficient for the stronger binding seen when both cytosines in the CG dinucleotide are methylated. Several DNA sequences containing HGGAA are also better bound than those containing cytosine, however the effect of 5hmC is not as dramatic as that of 5mC. Analysis of available NFATc2:DNA complexes rationalizes our PBM data.

Clonal Tracking Uncovers Barriers and Validate New Strategies to Enhance Gene Editing in Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:By applying a barcoding strategy to clonal tracking of edited cells (BAR-seq), we show that p53 activation triggered by HDR editing significantly shrink the HSPC clonal repertoire in hematochimeric mice, despite engrafted edited clones preserved multilineage and self-renewing capacity. Transient inhibition of p53 restored polyclonal graft composition. We then overcame HSC constraints to HDR by forcing cell cycle progression and upregulating components of the HDR machinery through transient expression of Adenovirus 5 E4orf6/7 protein, which operates the major cell cycle controller E2F. Combined E4orf6/7 expression and p53 inhibition resulted in high and stable HDR editing efficiencies in the human graft, without perturbing repopulation and self-renewing properties of edited HSCs.
