Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Promoter-targeting guide sequences for the 15 genes used to confirm CRISPR SAM activity were designed with the Cas9 Activator Tool (sam.genome-engineering.org/database) and the oligonucleotides are shown in Supplementary Table 5. Guide sequences for targeting of the screen candidate genes were obtained from the Addgene depositor datasheet (www.addgene.org/pooled-library/zhang-human-sam-v1) and modified by the addition of BsmBI recognition sites (Supplementary Table 6). Oligonucleotide sequences for generation of 20 bp non-targeting (scrambled) guide sequence were kindly shared by Dr Feng Zhang. Double-stranded sequences were generated by phosphorylating and annealing oligonucleotides with T4 polynucleotide kinase (NEB, Cat#M0201) and T4 DNA ligase (NEB, Cat#M0202), respectively. Guide sequences were cloned into the lenti sgRNA(MS2)_zeo backbone (Addgene, Cat#61427) by Golden Gate assembly using BsmBI (NEB, Cat#R0580) and amplified in NEB Stable competent E. coli. A full protocol is available at www.sam.genome-engineering.org/protocols.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To overexpress mouse Tead3 in RAW264.7 cells, we used CRISPRa to activate endogenous Tead3 expression, considering that the translation of Tead3 is initiated at a non-AUG start codon74 (link),75 (link). The sgRNA sequences are listed in Supplementary Data 3. Primers were annealed and ligated into the Lenti sgRNA(MS2)_zeo backbone (Addgene, 61427) digested with BsmBI. RAW264.7 cells were infected sequentially with Lenti dCas9-VP64_blast (Addgene, 61425), and Lenti MS2-P65-HSF1_Hygro (Addgene, 61426), and were selected with blasticidin (10 μg/mL) and hygromycin (750 μg/mL). The surviving cells were then infected with Lenti sgRNA(MS2)_zeo-Tead3 lentivirus and selected with zeocin (1 mg/mL). Tead3 overexpression was verified by qPCR and immunoblotting. For TEAD3 knockdown in U937 cells, the following pLKO-puro constructs inserted with shRNA were purchased from Sigma: TRCN0000015948 (5′-GCCACTGTTCTGCGCTTTAAT-3′), and TRCN0000015949 (5′-CCATGTCTACAAGCTCGTCAA-3′). A non-targeting shRNA in the pLKO-puro backbone was used as the control. Infected U937 cells were selected with puromycin (3 μg/mL).

Lentiviral vectors expressing shRNA for XIST and MSN were obtained from abm Inc, and Dharmacon, respectively. siRNA targeting MPP1, MSN and MID1 were purchased from Dharmacon. The plasmids expressing dCAS9 (lenti dCAS-VP64_Blast) and MS2 (lenti MS2-P65-HSF1_Hygro), and gRNA backbone plasmid (lenti sgRNA (MS2)_zeo backbone) were obtained from Addgene. The gRNAs targeting XIST promoter were cloned into the backbone plasmid as described previously(15 (link)). gRNA-11 and gRNA-8 target 5′TGTCCGGCTTTCAATCTTCT3′ and 5′GCAGCGCTTTAAGAACTGAA3′, respectively. DNA oligomers were synthesized by Invitrogen. The plasmid expressing miR503 was purchased from System Biology Inc (SBI).

E14tg2a cells were infected by a lentivirus contain dCas9-VP64 (Addgene, Cat.N 61425) or empty dCas9 (generating by removing the VP64 from the dCas9-VP64). Four days after infection cells were selected by adding 15ug/ml of basticidine (GIBCO, Cat.N A11139-03) during one week. To generate dCas9-VP64/p65-Hsf1 cell line, dCas9-VP64 positive cells were then additionally infected by lentivirus contain MS2-P65-HSF1 helper protein (Addgene, Cat.N 61426). Four days after infection positive cells were selected by adding hygromycine at 1mg/ml (GIBCO, Cat.N 10687010).
Guide RNAs (Zfp604 – AGAAAGCGGAATGAGAAGTT and Sox4 - TTGCTCTGTAAATTGGAATG) were designed and cloned in lenti sgRNA(MS2) zeo backbone (Addgene, Cat.N 61427) according to Zhang lab protocol (http://sam.genome-engineering.org/). The above mentioned CRISPR-dCas9 cell lines (plus the original E14Tg2a cell line) was infected by the sgRNA lentivirus and selected with 250ug/ml of zeocin (Invitrogen Cat.N R250-01) for 5 days. The first biological Hi-C/RNA replicate was collected one week after the original infection date, while the second was done one passage later (9 days post-infection).

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.
