Project description:Viruses and virally-derived particles have the intrinsic capacity to deliver molecules to cells, but the difficulty of readily altering cell-type selectivity has hindered their use for therapeutic delivery. Here we show that cell surface marker recognition by antibody fragments displayed on membrane-derived particles encapsulating CRISPR-Cas9 protein and guide RNA can target genome editing tools to specific cells. These Cas9-packaging enveloped delivery vehicles (Cas9-EDVs), programmed with different displayed antibody fragments, confer genome editing in target cells over bystander cells in mixed cell populations both ex vivo and in vivo. This strategy enabled the generation of genome-edited chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in humanized mice, establishing a new programmable delivery modality with the potential for widespread therapeutic utility.

Project description:Reliable and systematic access to diverse cell types is necessary for understanding the organization, function, and pathophysiology of human neural circuits. Methods for targeting human neural populations are scarce and currently center on identifying transcriptional enhancers and engineering viral capsids. Here we demonstrate the utility of CellREADR, a programmable RNA sensor-effector technology that couples cellular RNA sensing to effector protein translation, for accessing, monitoring, and manipulating specific neuron types in human cortex, ex vivo. We designed CellREADRs to target two subpopulations, CALB2 GABAergic interneurons and FOXP2 glutamatergic projection neurons, then validated targeting specificity using histological, electrophysiological, and transcriptomic methods. CellREADR expression of channelrhodopsin and GCamp enabled the manipulation and monitoring of these populations in live cortical microcircuits. By demonstrating specific, reliable, and programmable experimental access to human neuronal subpopulations, our results highlight CellREADR’s potential for studying neural circuits and treating brain disorders.

Project description:Recent studies claim that N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) modification of RNA confers crucial regulatory roles, such as increasing translation efficiency and prolonging its half-life. However, the absence of methods for selectively acetylating specific RNA molecules hampers linking ac4C to cell physiology. Here, we developed an efficient molecular tool that incorporates ac4C on a specific transcript of interest. Through protein engineering, we developed a hyperactive variant of N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10), designated eNAT10. When fused to the programmable RNA-targeting protein dCas13, eNAT10 enables robust acetylation of various target RNAs in multiple contexts. RNA acetylation by dCas13-eNAT10 was highly dependent on co-transfected guide RNA, highlighting its specificity. We also describe the first programmable RNA chemical modification in vivo using dual-AAV. Utilizing our system, we found that acetylation of RNA may modulate the subcellular localization of modified transcripts. We anticipate that our tool will facilitate numerous studies on ac4C functions across different cellular and disease contexts.

Project description:Engineered RNA elements are programmable tools capable of detecting small molecules, proteins, and nucleic acids. Predicting the behavior of these tools remains a challenge, a situation that could be addressed through enhanced pattern recognition from deep learning. Thus, we investigate Deep Neural Networks (DNN) to predict toehold switch function as a canonical riboswitch model in synthetic biology. To facilitate DNN training, we synthesized and characterized in vivo a dataset of 91,534 toehold switches spanning 23 viral genomes and 906 human transcription factors. DNNs trained on nucleotide sequences outperformed (R2=0.43-0.70) previous state-of-the-art thermodynamic and kinetic models (R2=0.04-0.15) and allowed for human-understandable attention-visualizations (VIS4Map) to identify success and failure modes. This deep learning approach constitutes a major step forward in engineering and understanding of RNA synthetic biology.

Project description:This study investigates the impact of ionic strength on the gelation kinetics of collagen biomaterial inks and evaluates the efficiency of TGFβ-1 sequestration within these hydrogels, alongside their compatibility with bioprinting live chondrocyte and adipose-derived stem cell lines for cartilage tissue engineering. By adjusting sodium chloride and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) concentrations, we demonstrate that reduced ionic strengths accelerate gelation, facilitating high-fidelity bioprinting while supporting high cell viability and post-printing proliferation of chondrocytes. Furthermore, at a 1% collagen concentration, the hydrogel effectively immobilized TGFβ-1, with less than 0.5% released over two weeks, indicating potent sequestration capabilities. Using adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, histomorphological and transcriptomic analyses reveal that the presence of TGFβ-1 significantly enhances chondrogenesis. These findings underscore the critical role of ionic strength in optimizing collagen ink properties for advanced bioprinting applications and highlight the potential of collagen hydrogels as effective carriers for sustained growth factor delivery, paving the way for successful cartilage tissue engineering strategies.

Project description:General approaches for heritably altering gene expression would enable many discovery and therapeutic efforts. Here, we present CRISPRoff— a programmable epigenetic memory writer consisting of a single dead Cas9 fusion protein that establishes DNA methylation and repressive histone modifications. Transient CRISPRoff expression initiates highly specific DNA methylation and gene repression that is maintained through cell division and differentiation of stem cells to neurons. Pairing CRISPRoff with genome-wide screens and analysis of chromatin marks enabled us to explore the rules for heritable silencing. We identify sgRNAs capable of silencing the large majority of genes including those lacking canonical CpG islands (CGIs) and reveal a wide targeting window extending beyond annotated CGIs. Our finding that targeted DNA methylation outside of CGIs leads to memorized gene silencing expands the canonical model of methylation-based silencing and broadly enables diverse applications including genome-wide screens, multiplexed cell engineering, enhancer silencing, and mechanistic exploration of epigenetic inheritance.

Project description:Simple and efficient delivery of CRISPR genome editing systems in primary cells remains a major challenge. Here, we describe an engineered Peptide-Assisted Genome Editing (PAGE) CRISPR-Cas system for rapid and robust editing of primary cells. PAGE couples a cell-penetrating Cas protein with a cell-penetrating endosomal escape peptide in a 30-minute incubation that yields up to ~98% editing efficiency in primary human and mouse T cells. PAGE provides a broadly generalizable platform for next generation genome engineering in primary cells.

Project description:Tissue-resident memory (TRM) T cells preferentially reside in peripheral tissues, serving as key players in tumor immunity and immunotherapy. Currently, the lack of effective approaches for expanding TRM cells and delivering these cells in vivo hinder the exploration of TRM cell-mediated cancer immunotherapy. Here, we report a nanoparticle artificial antigen-presenting cell (nano-aAPC) ex vivo expansion approach and an in vivo delivery system for TRM cells. Using the nano-aAPC platform, we expanded functional antigen-specific murine and human TRM-like CD8+ T cells ex vivo. We also developed an injectable macroporous hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel for delivery of TRM-like cells. TRM-like cells delivered in the optimized HA hydrogel trigger robust local and systemic antitumor immunity and show synergistic effect with anti-PD1 treatment. Our findings suggest that nano-aAPC-induced TRM-like cells, coupled with a hydrogel delivery system, offer an efficient way to advance the understanding of TRM cells-mediated cancer therapy.
