Zinc finger DNA-binding conditioned site-specific recombination

ABSTRACT: Programmable nucleases and designer-recombinases are prominent genome editing tools that hold great potential for the treatment of human genetic disorders. However, both of these tools alone are not optimal for clinical applications. We present an approach that combines the ease of targeting of programmable nucleases with editing safety and accuracy of site-specific recombinases. We find that insertional fusions of zinc-finger DNA-binding domains (ZFDs) into the coding sequence of designer-recombinases generate conditional enzymes that are inactive, unless the ZFD binds its target site placed in the vicinity of the recombinase binding site. This induced-fit activity is transferable to a recombinase with relaxed specificity, representing the prototype of a new class of genome editing enzymes that opens exciting perspectives for flexible, seamless, and precise genome surgery.

Quantitative evaluation of chromosomal rearrangements in primary gene-edited human stem cells by preclinical CAST-Seq

Project description:Genome editing with programmable nucleases has shown great promise for clinical translation but also revealed the risk of genotoxicity caused by chromosomal translocations or the insertion of mutations at off-target sites. Here, we describe CAST-Seq, an innovative assay to identify and quantify chromosomal aberrations derived from on- and off-target activities of CRISPR-Cas nucleases or TALENs. CAST-Seq also detected novel types of chromosomal rearrangements, including homology-mediated translocations that are mediated by homologous recombination. Depending on the employed designer nuclease, translocations occurred in 0–0.5% of gene-edited human stem cells and some 20% of target loci harbored gross aberrations. In conclusion, CAST-Seq analyses are particularly relevant for therapeutic editing of stem cells to enable a thorough risk assessment before clinical application of gene editing products.

Correction of a Factor VIII genomic inversion with designer recombinases

Project description:Despite advances in nuclease-based genome editing technologies, correcting human disease-causing genomic inversions remains a challenge. Here, we describe the potential use of a recombinase-based system to correct a 140 kb int1h inversion frequently found in patients diagnosed with Hemophilia A. With the use of directed molecular evolution, we developed a linked heterodimeric recombinase system (RecF8) achieving 30% inversion of the target sequence in human tissue culture cells. Transient RecF8 treatment of endothelial cells, differentiated from int1h patient derived iPSCs, resulted in prominent correction of the inversion and restored Factor VIII mRNA expression. Our data suggest that the development of designer-recombinases represent an efficient and specific mean towards treatment of large gene inversions causing monogenic diseases.

T-CAST: An optimized CAST-Seq pipeline for TALEN reveals superior safety and efficacy of obligate-heterodimeric scaffolds

Project description:Transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) are programmable nucleases that have entered the clinical stage. Each subunit of the dimer consists of a DNA-binding domain composed of an array of TALE repeats fused to the catalytically active portion of the FokI endonuclease. Upon DNA-binding of both TALEN arms in close proximity, the FokI domains dimerize and induce a staggered-end DNA double strand break. In this present study, we describe the implementation and validation of TALEN-specific CAST-Seq (T-CAST), a pipeline based on CAST-Seq that identifies TALEN-mediated off-target effects, nominates off-target sites with high fidelity, and predicts the TALEN pairing conformation leading to off-target cleavage. We validated T-CAST by assessing off-target effects of two promiscuous TALENs designed to target the CCR5 and TRAC loci. Expression of these TALENs caused high levels of translocations between the target sites and various off-target sites in primary T cells. Introduction of amino acid substitutions to the FokI domains, which render TALENs obligate-heterodimeric (OH-TALEN), mitigated the aforementioned off-target effects without loss of on-target activity. Our findings highlight the significance of T-CAST to assess off-target effects of TALEN designer nucleases and to evaluate mitigation strategies, and advocate the use of obligate-heterodimeric TALEN scaffolds for therapeutic genome editing.

Correction of a Factor VIII genomic inversion with designer recombinasesÃ¯Â»Â¿

Project description:Despite advances in nuclease-based genome editing technologies, correcting human disease-causing genomic inversions remains a challenge. Here, we describe the potential use of a recombinase-based system to correct the 140 kb inversion of the F8 gene frequently found in patients diagnosed with severe Hemophilia A. Employing substrate-linked directed molecular evolution, we developed a coupled heterodimeric recombinase system (RecF8) achieving 30% inversion of the target sequence in human tissue culture cells. Transient RecF8 treatment of endothelial cells, differentiated from patient derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of a hemophilic donor, resulted in 12% correction of the inversion and restored Factor VIII mRNA expression. Our data suggests that designer-recombinases may represent efficient and specific means towards treatment of monogenic diseases caused by large gene inversions.

ChIP-seq of TALE fusions

Project description:We present a strategy to investigate regulatory elements that leverages programmable reagents to selectively inactivate their endogenous chromatin state. The reagents, which comprise fusions between transcription activator- like effector (TALE) repeat domains and the LSD1 histone demethylase, efficiently remove enhancer-associated chromatin modifications from target loci, without affecting control regions. We find that inactivation of enhancer chromatin by these fusions frequently causes down- regulation of proximal genes. Our study demonstrates the potential of 'epigenome editing' tools to characterize a critical class of functional genomic elements. ChIP-seq analysis of TALE-Fusion Proteins

Programmable RNA base editing with a single engineered protein

Project description:Programmable base editing of RNA enables rewriting the genetic codes on specific sites. Current tools for specific RNA editing dependent on the assembly or recruitment of the guide RNA into an RNA/protein complex, which may cause delivery barrier and low editing efficiency. Here we report a new set of tools, RNA editing with individual RNA-binding enzyme (REWIRE), to perform precise base editing with a single engineered protein. The REWIRE system contains a human-originated programmable RNA-binding domain (PUF domain) to specifically recognize target sequence and different deaminase domains to achieve A-to-I or C-to-U editing. By utilizing this system, we have achieved editing efficiencies up to 80% in A-to-I editing and 65% in C-to-U editing, with a few non-specific editing sites in the targeted region and a low level off-target effect globally. We applied the REWIREs to correct disease-associated mutations and modify mitochondrial RNAs, and further optimized the REWIREs to improve the editing efficiency and minimize off-target effects. As a single-component base editing system originated from human proteins, REWIRE presents a precise and efficient RNA-editing platform with broad applicability in basic research and gene therapy.

DNA sequencing data of PPP1R12C and KCNH2 genomic regions in cell lines modified at these loci using STRAIGHT-IN.

Project description:Inserting large DNA payloads (>5 kb) into specific genomic sites of mammalian cells remains challenging. We have merged the strengths of different classes of site-specific recombinases and combine these with CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination to develop a strategy for targeted DNA integration of huge constructs (e.g. >170 kb) as well as stringent site-specific replacement of genomic fragments >50 kb in size in human induced pluripotent stem cells. In order to validate the genome integrity of the payloads integrated by STRAIGHT-IN (Serine and Tyrosine Recombinase Assisted Integration of Genes for High-Throughput INvestigation), we performed next generation sequencing (i.e. whole genome and targeted capture sequencing) on the resulting genetically modified cell lines. We have deposited here the raw data.

Hairpin Capture of DNA End Structures reveals chromosomal DNA end structure with single nucleotide resolution

Project description:The structure of broken DNA ends is a critical determinant of the pathway used for DNA double strand break (DSB) repair. Here, we develop an approach, hairpin capture of DNA end structures (HCoDES), which elucidates chromosomal DNA end structures at single nucleotide resolution. HCoDES defines structures of physiologic DSBs generated by the RAG endonuclease, as well as those generated by nucleases widely used for genome editing. Analysis of G1-phase cells deficient in H2AX or 53BP1 reveals DNA ends that are frequently resected to form long single-stranded overhangs that can be repaired by mutagenic pathways. In addition to 3’ overhangs, many of these DNA ends unexpectedly form long 5’ single-stranded overhangs. The divergence in DNA end structures resolved by HCoDES suggests that H2AX and 53BP1 may have distinct activities in end protection. Thus, the high-resolution end structures obtained by HCoDES identify new features of DNA end processing during DSB repair. Single stranded DNA ligation of genomic DNA isolated from G1 arrested LigaseIV-/-, LigaseIV-/- 53BP1-/- and LigaseIV-/- H2AX-/- Abelson pre-B cells harboring site specific DSBs generated by the RAG recombinase, Cas9 endonuclease or Zinc Finger Endonuclease.
