Inactivation of Glycosyltransferase Genes by Multi-Exon Dual CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing.

Gene inactivation is ensured by removal of exons encoding the cytoplasmic tail/transmembrane and parts of the stem encoded sequences of the desired gene needed to be inactivated. Target region deletion is mediated by use of a pairs of CRISPR/Cas9-gRNAs targeting the flanking regions encoding Mgat4a signal sequence, transmembrane anchoring and stem-regions. CHO Mgat4a is targeted using CHO Mgat4a CRISPR/Cas9 gRNA's Mgat4aEx1gRNA (5′-GGTATACCACATGGCAAAATGGG-3′) specific for exon1 and Mgat4aEx2gRNA (5′-GTCCAACAGTTTCGCCGTGCAGG-3′) specific for exon2. Both gRNA's were cloned into the BbsI (NEB, USA) gRNA target site of px458 (Addgene, USA) encoding GFP tagged S. pyogenes Cas9 and U6 promoter driven gRNA casette, generating px458-CRISPR-Mgat4aex1gRNA and px458-CRISPR-Mgat4aex2gRNA. Precise gene editing by nucleofection using 2 ug of these CRISPR/Cas9-Mgat4a editing tools and target selection validation was performed in CHO-GS cells as described in Examples 3 and 7.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The AID sequence was designed as published earlier (Muhar et al., 2018 (link)). For homozygous tagging of SPT6, pJET-CAID-Blast-entry-vector was constructed using the AID sequence. Following the strategy for knock-in Natsume et al. (2016) (link), to obtain the homology-directed repair (HDR) template, homology arms (HA) were amplified by PCR (sequences of oligonucleotides are listed in Table S4) using U2OS genomic DNA as template (5′HA, 400 bp; 3′HA, 800 bp). PCR fragments were digested with AgeI/EcoRI (5′HA) or BamHI/SpeI (3′HA) and cloned into the entry vector to obtain pJET-SPT6_HDR (5′HA-AID-V5-P2A-Blast-TGA-3′HA). To construct CRISPR/Cas9 vectors, two sgRNA were cloned into PX458 (Addgene #48138) as described (Ran et al., 2013 (link)) to obtain PX458_SPT6_sgR1 and PX458_SPT6_sgR2. 9x-myc-tagged TIR1 was PCR amplified using the template vector pBABE TIR1-9myc (Addgene #64945) and inserted into pRRL-hygro using AgeI/MluI digestion to obtain pRRL-hygro-TIR1.

Guide sequence for sgRNA targeting the ZBED6 binding motif in intron 3 of porcine IGF2 were designed using the open-source tool, CHOPCHOP (http://chopchop.cbu.uib.no/). The BE3 (a fusion protein of deaminase Apobec-1, Cas9 (D10A) nickase, and Uracil Glycosylase Inhibitor (UGI)) coding sequence was digested from the pCMV-BE3 (Addgene #73021, Cambridge, MA, USA), and cloned into the pX458 (Addgene #48138, Cambridge, MA, USA) to replace the 3 × FLAG-Cas9 coding sequence to generate the pX458-BE3 plasmid, which contains the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) reporter. Oligos of gRNA targeting porcine IGF2-intron3-3071 were synthesized (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China) and cloned into the plasmid pX458-BE3 through Bbs I restriction site to create the plasmid pX458-BE3-gRNA.

Guide RNAs targeting an exon region of Lck were designed and cloned into pSpCas9(BB)-2A-GFP vector or PX458 (Addgene, 48138) for targeted deletion of Lck using CRISPR-Cas9 20 (link). Lck and TurboID cDNA were amplified by PCR from pCMV-SPORT6-Lck (antibodies-online Inc, ABIN3804434) and V5-TurboID-NES_pCDNA3 (Addgene, 107169), respectively, using Phusion polymerase and 10 μM forward and reverse primers. PCR products were verified by gel electrophoresis and purified using Monarch PCR & DNA Cleanup Kit (New England BioLabs, T1030). Purified PCR products were digested accordingly and ligated into pEF6 mammalian expression vector (Thermo Fisher Scientific, V96120) to form pEF6-Lck-TurboID. Plasmid sequences were verified by DNA sequencing. All oligonucleotides used in this work were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and are listed in Table S1. Plasmids PX458-Lck (#159430) and pEF6-Lck-TurboID (#159433) are deposited to Addgene.

Using the CRISPR RGEN Tools (www.rgenome.net/cas-designer), a single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting PoMaf1 was designed (5′-CAA CAC ACA GCT GGG AGC TGA GG-3′; PAM, underlined). A pair of oligonucleotides corresponding to the target sgRNA sequence (oligo-1, 5′-CAC CGC AAC ACA CAG CTG GGA GCT G-3′; oligo-2, 5′-AAA CCA GCT CCC AGC TGT GTG TTG-3′) was inserted into the sgRNA/Cas9 dual expression vector pSpCas9(BB)-2A-GFP (also known as PX458; Addgene, Watertown, MA, USA) according to the protocol of Zhang [50 (link)]. Briefly, the PX458 vector was digested with BbsI and gel-purified. The dsDNA with 4 bp overhangs on both ends was generated by annealing following phosphorylation, and ligated into the linearized PX458 vector.

CRISPR gRNAs targeting the third exons of MIGA2 were designed using the online TKO CRISPR Design Tool (https://crispr.ccbr.utoronto.ca/crisprdb/public/library/TKOv3/). 5′-GCG​GAA​AGT​CCT​CTT​TGC​CA-3′ was chosen as gRNA to knock out MIGA2. The gRNA was cloned into pX458 (48138; Addgene) as described previously (Ran et al., 2013 (link)). Hela cells were transiently transfected with the constructs containing gRNAs. After 48 h, the GFP positive individual cells were selected by flow cytometry (BD FACSAria) and seeded in 96-well plates for single clones. The clones were validated by genotyping and Western blotting. For genotyping, briefly, genomic DNAs from single clones were extracted using QuickExtract DNA extraction solution (QE0905T; Lucigen), and PCR products containing the site of Cas9 cleavage site were generated using the following primers: 5′-TAG​ACC​TCA​CCT​TCT​CGG​CAC​T-3′; 5′-CCA​ATA​TCC​CCA​AGT​AGA​GAG​TG-3′.

Mouse Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b cDNA sequences from Horizon Dharmacon were cloned into pCDH-EF1-MCS-Neo and piggybac (pCAGGS-IRES-Neo, a gift from H. Niwa, Institute of Molecular Embryology and Genetics, Kumamoto, Japan) with an N-terminal FLAG-HA epitope tag using Gibson assembly (NEB). Mouse Nsd1 cDNA from Horizon Dharmacon was cloned into pPB-CAG-3xFLAG-empty-pgk-hph (Addgene #48754, a gift from Austin Smith) using Gibson assembly. Standard site-directed mutagenesis techniques were used to generate C2023A in Nsd1 and the TRBS missense mutations W297del, I310N and Y365C corresponding to mouse Dnmt3a residues W293, I306 and Y361 respectively. To produce lentivirus, 293T cells were transfected with the lentiviral vector and helper plasmids (psPAX2, pVSVG).

Guides targeted to Parp1 and Parp2 genes were designed using the CRISPR design tool (http://crispr.mit.edu/). The best target guides were selected for each gene. gRNA sequences are as follows: PARP1, 5′-CACCGCACTCGATAAAGCCTCTCCG-3′ and 5′-AAACCGGAGAGGCTTTATCGAGTGC-3′; Parp2, 5′-CACCGCTTCAAGAGCGATGGCGCCG-3′ and 5′-AAACCGGCGCCATCGCTCTTGAAGC-3′. These guides were cloned into mammalian expression vector PX458 (Addgene). Mouse E14TG2a ESCs were transfected with Parp1 and/or Parp2 KO expressing guides and GFP-positive cells were sorted 48 h after transfection. The sorted cells were clonally expanded, and KO clones for Parp1, Parp2, and Parp1/Parp2 were verified by DNA sequencing, Western blots, and quantitative PCR.

Genome Editing of Alzheimer's Disease Models

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genome-edited lines were generated using published protocols. Briefly, guide RNAs (gRNAs) to APP were generated using the Zhang Lab Crispr design Web site at MIT (crispr.mit.edu) and cloned into vector px458 (Addgene) that co-expresses the Cas9 nuclease and GFP. hiPSCs were electroporated with the px458 plasmid containing the gRNAs to target APP. We generated the APP KO cells from our parental APPDp cell line (APPDp1), first described in Israel et al., 2012 (link). To generate APP KO cells, no repair template was added. For generating the APP Swedish mutation, we targeted wild-type hiPSCs derived from J. Craig Venter (Gore et al., 2011 (link)) and 120-bp single-stranded oligonucleotide was designed to have the 2-bp Swedish mutation (GA to TC, corresponding to exon 16 of APP). Electroporated hiPSCs were sorted for GFP and plated a clonal density on 10-cm MEF plates. After 1.5 to 2.0 weeks, sub-cloned colonies were picked and transferred to a 96-well plate. Colonies were spit in duplicate and one set was maintained for cell line generation and the other was analyzed for the mutation of interest by Sanger Sequencing. All gene-edited lines were digitally karyotyped as euploid by the Illumina Infinium HumanCoreExomeBeadChip, as has been previously described (Young et al., 2015 (link))

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.
