The gRNAs were cloned into CROPseq-Guide-Puro (Addgene, #86708)44 (link). All the gRNAs were pooled together in equal concentrations. BMDCs were transduced and selected with puromycin in the experiments that are shown in Supplementary Fig. 5 and Fig. 4. In the experiment in Fig. 3, the cells were not selected.
For the experiment shown in Supplementary Fig. 5, we used gRNA-Cd86, gRNA-CD274, and gRNA-non-targeting. On day 8, cells were incubated with CD86 and PD-L1 barcoded antibodies and washed three times with cold PBS.
For the double targeting Cebpb and Nr4a3 experiment in Fig. 3, gRNA-Cebpb and gRNA-Nr4a3 were cloned into the CROPseq-Guide-Puro (Addgene #86708).
For the experiment in Fig. 4, a pool of 32 gRNAs was cloned into CROPseq-Guide-Puro (Addgene #86708). HashTag Oligonucleotide (HTO) antibodies and anti-CD86 and anti-PD-L1 ADT TotalSeq™ antibodies were used. After three washes with cold PBS, 50,000 cells were loaded on seven channels of 10X Genomics Chromium single-cell 3′ chip.
HTO and ADT sequences were recovered from the cDNA using the manufacturer protocol12 (link). gRNA sequences were recovered from the cDNA libraries.
CDNA, ADT, HTO, and the gRNA libraries were sequenced using Novaseq6000 (Illumina).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The protein-coding sequence of AsCas12a (RRID:Addgene_84739) was subcloned into a lentiviral expression vector, EFS-FLAG-P2A-Puro (RRID:Addgene_108100). NLS sequences were incorporated into overlapping DNA oligonucleotides homologous to the Cas-containing backbone by PCR. AsCas12a (E174R, S542R) was cloned in two rounds of mutagenesis PCR on the completed WT AsCas12a-6xNLS vector to generate a final lentiviral vector, opAsCas12a (pRG232, Addgene_149723). All vector cloning was performed using the In-Fusion HD Cloning system (TBUSA).
The AsCas12a crRNA expression vector (pRG212, Addgene_149722) was built by replacing the sgRNA region in the CROPseq-Guide-Puro plasmid (RRID:Addgene_86708) with AsCas12a DRs flanking a short filler that contained BsmbI restriction sites. In addition, the puromycin resistance cassette was replaced with EGFP-P2A-Neomycin, subcloned from LRG2.1-Neomycin (RRID:Addgene_125593).
The resulting pRG212 (EFS-GFP-P2A-Neo-U6-crRNA) vector was BsmbI-digested, and crRNAs were ligated in with T4 DNA ligase (NEB). Single-crRNA and dual-crRNA were cloned by annealing and phosphorylating complementary DNA oligonucleotides with T4 polynucleotide kinase (NEB).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HEK293T cells were plated onto six-well plates at 1.2 million cells per well in 2 ml of lentivirus packaging medium (Opti-MEM I (Gibco cat. no. 51985-034), 5% FCS (Sigma), 200 μM sodium pyruvate (Gibco cat. no. 11360-070), no antibiotics). The next morning, cells were transfected with lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen cat. no. L3000015) using 1.7 μg of CROPseq-Guide-Puro (containing single gRNAs or libraries) or LentiCas9-Blast (Addgene 52962), and 0.9 μg each of the three packaging plasmids pMDLg/pRRE (Addgene 12251), pRSV-Rev (Addgene 12253), and pMD2.G (Addgene 12259). The medium was exchanged for fresh lentivirus packaging medium 6 h after the transfection. Supernatant containing viral particles was harvested at 24 h and 48 h, pooled, and passed through a 0.45 μm filter to remove cells. Further concentration of viral particles was not required. Virus was stored at -80 °C. One vial was subsequently thawed for estimating the virus titer.

Single-Cell CRISPR Screening of CD8+ T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The backbone plasmid used to clone the CROP-Seq library was CROPseq-Guide-Puro, purchased from Addgene (Addgene. Plasmid #86708). This library consisted of 20 gene targets (2 guides per gene selected from hits in the GW screen) and 8 non-targeting control guides, for a total of 48 guides (Table S5). Oligos for these library guides were purchased from Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) and cloned into the CROPseq-Guide-Puro plasmid backbone using the methods described by Datlinger et al. (Datlinger et al., 2017 (link)). Lentivirus was produced from this pooled plasmid library and used to transduce CD8+ T cells from two healthy donors, as above. 48 hours after transduction, 1e6 cells were resuspended in P3 buffer and 3μL of Cas9 (Stock 40μM) was added. Cells were transferred to a 96 well electroporation cuvette plate (Lonza, cat #VVPA-1002) for nucleofection using the pulse code EH115. 24 hours post nucleofection, cells were treated with 2.5ug/mL Puromycin for three days, and subsequently sorted for live cells using Ghost Dye 710 (Tonbo Biosciences, Cat #13–0871). Two days post sorting, cells were restimulated as above. 36 hours post restimulation, cells were collected, counted, and prepared for Illumina sequencing by Chromium Single Cell 3’ v2 (PN-120237), as per manufacturer protocol.

Generating CRISPR Library Constructs

sgRNA sequences in custom libraries are available in Additional file 3: Table S2. sgRNAs were designed using CRISPick algorithm [14 (link)]. For each gene, we chose top scoring 5 sgRNAs (based on CRISPick scores). Libraries were prepared as previously described [16 (link), 22 (link), 73 (link)]. Briefly, oligonucleotide pools (CustomArray) contained the sgRNA sequence appended to BsmBI cutting sites and overhang sequences for PCR amplification. The final sequence obtained is: AGGCACTTGCTCGTACGACGCGTCTCACACCG [20nt spacer]GTTTCGAGACGTTAAGGTGCCGGGCCCACAT. Following PCR amplification with Fwd: 5′-AGGCACTTGCTCGTACGACG-3′, Rev: 5′-ATGTGGGCCCGGCACCTTAA-3′ primers, the PCR product was cloned via Golden Gate assembly into BsmBI-digested lentiGuide-Puro vector (Addgene# 52,963) for CRISPRko and CRISPRi libraries and into pXRP502 (Addgene #96,923) for CRISPRqtl oligos were cloned into CROPseq-Guide-Puro (Addgene#86,708). Ligated libraries were electroporated into NEB5α electrocompetent cells (NEB), plasmid DNA was extracted using Qiagen Maxi Prep. For each library preparation, a 1000X representation was ensured.

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.
