Project description:To identify genes for radioresistance in lung cancer, unbiased CRISPR/Cas9 library knockout screening was performed by constructing stable cells in A549 containing a pooled genome-wide human sgRNA library containing 12, 3411 sgRNAs targeting 19,050 unique human genes. Two populations of cells were either nonirradiated or irradiated at 4 Gy, and they were cultured in vitro for 4 days. Then genomic DNA was acquired to readout the sgRNA representation by deep sequencing.
Project description:By a robust unbiased ChIP-seq approach, we demonstrated that CRISPR/Cas9 had crRNA-specific off-target binding activities in human genome. However, most of those binding off-targets could not be efficiently cleaved both in vivo and in vitro which suggested the cleavage off-target activity of CRISPR/Cas9 in human genome is very limited. We provided a valuable tool to further investigate the molecular mechanism of CRISPR/Cas9 and to optimize its in vivo targeting sgRNA binding sites were identified with ChipSeq by using GFP antibody (there are 2 replicates for egfa-t1 sgRNA,emx1 sgRNA and control without sgRNA in Hek293T cells, one egfa-t1 sgRNA,emx1 sgRNA and control without sgRNA in HeLaS3 cells)
Project description:RNA-guided genome editing with the CRISPR-Cas9 system has great potential for basic and clinical research, but the determinants of targeting specificity and the extent of off-target cleavage remain insufficiently understood. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq), we mapped genome-wide binding sites of catalytically inactive Cas9 (dCas9) in HEK293T cells, in combination with 12 different single guide RNAs (sgRNAs). The number of off-target sites bound by dCas9 varied from ~10 to >1,000 depending on the sgRNA. Analysis of off-target binding sites showed the importance of the PAM-proximal region of the sgRNA guiding sequence and that dCas9 binding sites are enriched in open chromatin regions. When targeted with catalytically active Cas9, some off-target binding sites had indels above background levels in a region around the ChIP-seq peak, but generally at lower rates than the on-target sites. Our results elucidate major determinants of Cas9 targeting, and we show that ChIP-seq allows unbiased detection of Cas9 binding sites genome-wide 1.sgRNA1-6 binding sites were identified with ChipSeq by using HA antibody (there are 2 replicates for sgRNA1-3, one sample for sgRNA4-6,one control without sgRNA) 2.PCR products which amplifies " off-target genomic sites" were deep sequenced in the presence of WT Cas9+sgRNA or WT Cas9 alone( unique adaptor was used for each sgRNA and mixed for multiplex run)
Project description:Estrogen Receptor a (ERa) bindning to DNA was profiled by ChIP-seq in MCF-7 and T47D cells transduced with either control sgRNA, or sgRNA targeting a specific enhancer region (enhancer588). ERa in MCF-7 and T47D control or enhancer588-targeted cells
Project description:We conducted a two-vector CRISPR/Cas13d proliferation screening experiment. The screening library contains 10,830 sgRNAs targeting 192 protein-coding genes and 234 lncRNAs, and the screening experiment was performed using a melanoma cell line A375. It provides a unique dataset to model Cas13d sgRNA efficiency and specificity. We designed a deep learning model, named DeepCas13, to predict the sgRNA on-target activity with high accuracy from sgRNA sequences and RNA secondary structures.
Project description:Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen using TKOv1 sgRNA library performed in isogenic RBM10-proficient and RBM10-deficient HCC827 cells.
Project description:To minimize the human genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 library size, we established H-mLib which recruited a novel sgRNA design method and applied with dual plasmid based strategy. The performance of the H-mLib was benchmarked to other CRISPR libraries in a proliferation screening conducted in K562 cells. We also identified human core essential genes and cell-type specific essentials genes in K562 and Jurkat cells.

Project description:Trypanosoma brucei library consisting of a pool of reporters whose 14Ts polypyrimidine tract is replaced with 11 random nucleotides. The library is treated with puromycin at a concentration of either 0.2ug/ml, 0.4ug/ml or 1ug/ml. The reporters are recovered and PCR amplicons targeting the random sequences identified by HTS. The results are paired reads, where the suffixes _1 and _2 are reads 1 and 2 respectively. Also included are sequencing results from the plasmid library.
