The digested vector is also dephosphorylated in FastAP Thermosensitive Alkaline Phosphatase (1U/μL, Thermo Scientific) in FastDigest Buffer (10X) in 200 μL volume. Purified pooled oligos were cloned into digested pTF vector using 2X Gibson Assembly Master Mix with 10 times molar ratio of pooled oligos to digested vector and transformed to Endura Electro Competent Cells (Lucigen) and plated on LB + Amp plates (Figure S1D). 565 E.coli colonies per guide ratio (>500× coverage) was used to process the 4 Maxi-Prep (Qiagen) reactions. After bacterial transformation, the plasmid library was sequenced to verify uniform sgRNA coverage and minimal bias (Figure S1E).

cDNA Linearization for Subsequent PCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A cDNA oligo was annealed to the RT primer, generating a short double-stranded region suitable for BamHI restriction. This strategy also prevents BamHI activities on other endogenous BamHI restriction sites. Next, BamHI were applied, creating linear cDNAs with adapters at both 5′- and 3′-ends to prime subsequent PCR amplification. Next, oligo annealing mixture (43 μl water, 6 μl 10 × FastDigest Buffer (Fermentas), 5 μl 20 μM Cut_oligo (5′- GTTCAGGATCCACGACGCTCTTCAAAA/3InvdT/ -3′) was added into the CircLigase II reaction. Annealing was carried out by heating to 95 °C for 2 min, followed by 71 cycles of 20 s each, starting from 95 °C and decreasing the temperature by 1 °C after every cycle down to 25 °C and holding at 25 °C. Six microlitres of FastDigest BamHI (Fermentas) was added and incubated at 37 °C for 30 min. Re-linearized cDNA was purified by 2 × SPRISelect beads (Beckman Coulter Genomics) (v/v) and eluted in nuclease-free water.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay was performed on all 377 blood samples at the Department of Veterinary Internal Medicine of Iwate University. Genomic DNA was
isolated from heparinized whole blood using a DNA purification kit (DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit, Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Exon 29 of the feline PKD1 was partially amplified
by PCR, producing a 559-bp amplicon, according to the Lyons et al. [20 (link)] protocol. DNA restriction was performed by digestion of 5
µl of amplification product in a total reaction volume of 10 µl that contained 0.5 µl of FastDigest MLyl (Fermentas, Waltham, MA, U.S.A.)
and 10×FastDigest buffer (Fermentas) incubated at 37°C for 30 min, followed by inactivation of enzyme at 80°C for 5 min. The RFLP pattern was obtained by running the complete digestion
reaction on a 2% agarose gel.

pMevT4 was generated by PstI digestion of pMevT followed by re-ligation of the backbone using T4 DNA ligase and standard molecular biology methods, excising the metabolic pathway cassette (atoB, ERG13, and tHMGR). pMevT-murI RBS variants were generated by uracil-excision cloning of murI into pMevT with a diversity of eight different murI RBS sequences added via the PCR primers for the cloning fragments (Supplementary Table 11). pMVA1 was similarly generated by uracil-excision cloning of PCR fragments, introducing a constitutive J23100 promoter with a PCR primer (Supplementary Table 11). PCRs were conducted by standard procedures with Phusion U DNA polymerase (Thermo). Uracil-excision cloning was performed by approx. equimolar mixing of the respective purified PCR products (Supplementary Table 11) in a 20 μL reaction, including 2 μL FastDigest buffer (Thermo), 0.75 μL USER enzyme (NEB), and 0.75 μL FastDigest DpnI (Thermo).

Cas12m Protein Expression and CRISPR Cloning

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The genes of selected Cas12m proteins were synthesized and cloned into pBAD expression vectors (Twist Biosciences) fused with N-terminal Twin-Strep-10×His-MBP purification tag encoding sequences (pTK200-203, pTK210-211, TK216-217). Cas12m expression vectors containing a minimal CRISPR region, consisting of two repeats and a single spacer between them, were cloned using Golden Gate strategy (pTK205-208, pTK213-214, pTK218-219). Specifically, the fragments of the minimal CRISPR region with the native adjacent sequences (up to 300 bp downstream the last repeat) were ordered as gBlocks (IDT). A plasmid encoding Cas12m and fragments of its respective CRISPR region was incubated with FD BpiI (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and T4 DNA ligase (Thermo Fisher Scientific) in 1× FastDigest buffer supplemented with 0.5 mM ATP (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 30 cycles at 37°C/5 min and 16°C/5 min, followed by 65°C 10 min. The plasmids were propagated in E. coli DH5α and purified using GeneJET Plasmid Miniprep Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Descriptions and links to protein and plasmid sequences can be found in Supplementary Table S3 and S4.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
