Project description:We analyzed the expression of RNAs and microRNAs in hepatocytes isolated from ApcDeltaHep livers, either ROSA26 or deleted for the b-catenin binding site upstream of the DLK1/DIO3 locus by Crispr/Cas9 (DLK1DeltaWRE). We thus explored if editing of this regulatory site impaired the expression of the entire locus and which signaling pathways were modulated.

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.

Project description:The CRISPR-Cas9 system enables efficient sequence-specific mutagenesis for creating germline mutants of model organisms. Key constraints in vivo remain the expression and delivery of active Cas9-guideRNA ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) with minimal toxicity, variable mutagenesis efficiencies depending on targeting sequence, and high mutation mosaicism. Here, we established in vitro-assembled, fluorescent Cas9-sgRNA RNPs in stabilizing salt solution to achieve maximal mutagenesis efficiency in zebrafish embryos. Sequence analysis of targeted loci in individual embryos reveals highly efficient bi-allelic mutagenesis that reaches saturation at several tested gene loci. Such virtually complete mutagenesis reveals preliminary loss-of-function phenotypes for candidate genes in somatic mutant embryos for subsequent generation of stable germline mutants. We further show efficient targeting of functional non-coding elements in gene-regulatory regions using saturating mutagenesis towards uncovering functional control elements in transgenic reporters and endogenous genes. Our results suggest that in vitro assembled, fluorescent Cas9-sgRNA RNPs provide a rapid reverse-genetics tool for direct and scalable loss-of-function studies beyond zebrafish applications.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to introduce a new genome editing tool, which has the higher editing scope than the original genome editing tools. Methods: First, we transfected PE2 (the original prime editing tool, prime editor2), PE3 (the original prime editing tool, prime editor3) and HOPE (the new tool we developed in this study) vectors into human cells, respectively. Then, we harvested the genomic DNA form the transfected cells and amplified the specified amplicons. Finally, we used targeted amplicon sequencing approach to compare the editing efficiency and presion of the new tool with the original reported tools. Results: Our new genome editing tool improves the editing efficiency of prime editing without increasing the risk of undesired indels formation. Conclusions: We deleveped a new genome editing tool to increase the likelihood of successful gene engineering.

Project description:Genome-wide knockout or knockdown screens have become powerful tools for the investigation of genotype-to-phenotype relationships. In bacteria, these screens commonly rely on transcriptional repression by dCas9, gene knockouts through Cas9 editing or random transposon mutagenesis, but depending on the technique, suffer from incomplete gene silencing, low editing efficiencies or they require massive library sizes. Here, we take a distinct approach with base editing to introduce premature stop codons or mutate start codons in Escherichia coli using a ScCas9 nickase derived base editor (ScBE3) that exhibits flexible PAM recognition. We then derive guide design rules by applying machine learning to a gene essentiality screen conducted in E. coli. For further improvement, we combined base-editing with Cas9-induced cleavage of the unedited cell fraction. The efficiency of this dual system was validated through a screen of conditionally essential E. coli genes. This improved setup that decouples the gene editing from the screening leads to more efficient guide depletion and confirmed previously published conditionally essential genes. Overall, base editing represents a useful tool for genome-wide knockout screens in bacteria and will eventually enable genome-wide knockout screens in a broader range of bacterial species to study their diverse genetics.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by ultra-high throughput (UHTP) sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a powerful tool to establish protein-DNA interactions genome-wide, and the primary limitation of its broad application at present is the often-limited access to sequencers. Here, we report a protocol, Mab-Seq, to generate preliminary quality evaluations and single-chromosome data for deep-sequencing libraries. We show that commercially available genomic microarrays can be used to maximize the efficiency of library creation, quickly generate preliminary data on a chromosomal scale, and help establish the depth to which novel libraries will require deep sequencing.

Project description:Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SCs) are muscle stem cells responsible for muscle development and injury induced muscle regeneration. The pace of SC related study, however, is constrained partially by the technological limitations in generating genetically modified mice. Although the ease of use of CRISPR-Cas9 in genome manipulation has been documented in many cell lines and various species, its application in endogenous SCs remains elusive. In this study, we generated muscle-specific Cas9-expressing mice and achieved robust in vivo genome editing in juvenile SCs at the postnatal stage through AAV9 mediated short guide RNAs (sgRNAs) delivery. We also found adult quiescent SCs are reluctant to CRISPR/Cas9 editing despite efficient AAV9 transduction. To edit juvenile SCs in vivo, as a proof-of-concept, we delivered sgRNAs targeting MyoD, a key gene critical for muscle physiology and showed an efficient editing at MyoD locus, resulting in accumulation of SCs and defects in SCs differentiation which resembled the phenotypes reported in MyoD knockout mice. Further application of this system on potential key transcription factors (TFs) involved in SC fate transition, Myc, Bcl6 and Pknox2, unveiled their distinct functions in the early stage of SC activation and injury induced muscle regeneration. In addition, we revealed that Myc orchestrated SCs activation through impinging on 3D chromatin architecture. Altogether we established a robust muscle restricted CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing platform in endogenous SCs and elucidated the functionality of key factors governing SC activities.

Project description:Emerging base and prime editing may provide safer and more precise genetic engineering than nuclease-based approaches bypassing the dependence on DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). However, little is known about cellular responses and genotoxicity. Here, we comparatively assessed state-of-the-art base and prime editors (B/PE) versus Cas9 in human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). BE and PE induced detrimental transcriptional responses constraining editing efficiency and/or HSPC repopulation in xenotransplants, albeit to a lesser extent than Cas9. DNA DSBs and their genotoxic byproducts, including deletions and translocations, were less frequent but not abrogated by BE and PE, particularly for cytidine BE due to suboptimal inhibition of base excision repair. Tailoring timing and B/PE expression enabled highly efficient and precise editing of long-term repopulating HSPCs. However, we uncovered a genome-wide effect of BEs on the mutational landscape of HSPCs, raising concerns for a potential genotoxic impact and calling for further investigations and improvements in view of clinical application.and/or HSPC repopulation in xenotransplants, albeit to a lesser extent than Cas9. DNA DSBs and their genotoxic byproducts, including deletions and translocations, were lower but not abrogated by BE and PE, particularly for cytidine BE upon suboptimal base excision repair inhibition. Tailoring timing and B/PE expression enabled highly efficient and precise editing of long-term repopulating HSPCs. However, we uncovered a genome-wide effect of cytidine BE on mutational landscape of hematopoietic grafts, raising concerns for its prospective clinical application. Conversely, the superior efficiency and precision of adenine BE built confidence on its entry into clinical arena.
