After transformation of M. smegmatis and BCG with pKLM-CRISPR-lysA(x), kanamycin-resistant colonies were recovered and cultured in 5 mL of MB7H9 and MB7H9-OADC, respectively. These cultures were used as pre-inoculum in a fresh culture starting at OD600 0.1. After 2 h (M. smegmatis) or 24 h (BCG) of incubation, tetracycline was added to induce expression of Cas9, and the culture was maintained at 37°C for 4-24 h (M. smegmatis) or 24-120 h (BCG). After the induction, bacteria were lysed by sonication using an ultrasonic processor GE100 (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) and protein extracts separated by SDS-PAGE (BioRad, Hercules, CA, UK), transferred to PVDF membranes (GE Healthcare) and blocked with 5% non-fat dry milk at 4°C for 16 h. The membrane was probed using monoclonal anti-Cas9 antibodies (7A9-3A3, 1:1,000) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) incubated for 90 min and anti-mouse IgG conjugated with peroxidase (A6782, 1:1,000) (Sigma-Aldrich®) for 60 min. E. coli DH5α transformed with pCas (20 (link)) was used as positive control for Cas9 expression.

Immuno-dot and immuno-slotblot assays were performed as previously described61 (link). DNA was extracted using DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen 69504). DNA (300 ng per well, two to three technical replicates per sample) was vacuum-transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane using the Bio-Dot or Bio-Dot-SF apparatus (Bio-Rad, 1706542/5). Membranes were baked at 80 oC in a Bio-Rad’s Gel Dryer model 583, blocked in 5% milk in PBS with 0.1% Tween (PBST), washed three times in PBST, and incubated with 6-4PP or CPD antibodies (see Supplementary Table 5) overnight at 4 oC. Membranes were again washed in PBST and incubated with HRP-conjugated anti-mouse antibodies (ECL Mouse IgG, HRP-linked whole Ab (from sheep), Cytiva, NA931). Damage signal was detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL™ Prime Western Blotting System, GE Healthcare, RPN2232) and exposure in the Bio-Rad ChemiDocTM XRS + imaging system. Genomic DNA amount loaded onto the membrane was quantified using SYBR™ Gold Nucleic Acid Gel Stain (1:5000 dilution, Invitrogen, S11494), by incubating the membrane with SYBR-Gold solution for 60 min, followed by three washes with PBST. Damage signal was normalized to SYBR-Gold signal using Image Lab version 6.0 from Bio-Rad.

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.
